    For the cost of this line, I expect more. This is probably my least favorite thus far, and smells of screechy powder and plastic. The stillage does have a resemblance to Shalimar, which I do not...

    I didn't know this was by Maurice Roucel when I bought it, but wasn't surprised to discover it later--M. Roucel's magic always draws me in. On me, Labdanum opens with a creamy amber richness and...

    Love this scent. It's expensive, but I only wear it on special occasions. It's very, very sexy and strong. I smell myself (inadvertently) constantly when I wear this. For some this fragrance is...

    A rich, slightly green resin. Warm and slightly powdery in a texture way, not powder as a scent. Almost opoponax in the light warm powder edge. Very nice.

    The first 30 minutes after initial application, this perfume smelled on me, like cat pee. Like urine... but covered up with powderiness. However, the second time I tried it, the initial smell was...

    I smell a warm, dusty, faintly sweet vanilla, powder, and . . . cabbage, unfortunately. The "cabbage accord" is, I think, how my mind registers the profusion of powder (and there's quite a bit),...

    Maurice Roucel is a genius, and though I don't think that Labdanum 18 is his best fragrance, I do think it's a great example of how awesome he is. Yes, this fragrance has some similarities to Musc...

    This is my first experience w/ LL. I have this in the balm and perfume. I really enjoy this! On me it is very similar to H. Lang as noted by another reviewer, but this is softer and a little more...

    The first couple minutes of this produced a lovely smoky resin-like/amber scent, but then that dies away and I'm left with a powdery...something, I've researched the scent and it's meant to be a...

    Labdanum 18 (formerly "Ciste 18") I ordered this one mostly due to the review I had seen on YouTube. I was craving the Rose 31 for a couple of years now, but when I saw the review, I did not...

    I find this to be one of the longer lasting scents of this line, yet it is soft and close to the skin. Initially there are top notes of a clean, white musk, powder, almond and heliotrope. Then a...

    Simply put, Le Labo's Labdanum 18 smells like an expensive sweet-ish amber baby powder from top note to base note. It is is similar smell-wise Houbigant's Quelques Fleurs and just as horribly...

    Warm and musky, as everyone says--sweet too. I get root beer in the early stages; and the drydown is particularly alluring, with pipe tobacco emerging. Quite pleasant and cozy, BUT where is the...

    This smelled dated to me, not like the cutting edge fragrance I expected. I am so surprised.

    Yes, this is Musc Ravageur Redux. I don't care. It wears beautifully and elicits deliriously sincere compliments from women and men alike. Don't expect a big hit of labdanum; this is a warm skin...

    Like Supermarky below, I do find this similar to Musc Ravageur. Unlike Supermarky, I'm loving it. Like all Le Labo perfumes I have tested, this is understated. It's just a hint of ... what exactly?...

    This sparks an erotic interest at first, then morphs into a clean Baby Magic baby oil lotion. It has an astringent end note similar to Creative Universe Mare and NK Beach. Well at least I...

    So you think Musc Ravageur is the sexiest musc you have tried? And you think you like the vanillic and animalic dry down of Musc Ravageur, but you are not a fan of the opening or think it could be...

    This is now called Labdanum 18. This, to my nose, smells very close to the spicy, dirty, vanillic drydown in FM's Musc Ravageur. It's a terrific scent, very sensual and slightly animalic, and that...
