    This is a really interesting scent. All of the other reviews ring true to me. One minute I smell medicine and rubber, the next minute I smell bazooka bubble gum and wood. I wouldn't wear this,...

    I'm fascinated by the dichotomy of the previous reviews: some get medicinal or rubber, and others find it very sweet. It's times like these when I have to disagree completely with Luca Turin's...

    Less cloying than L'Heure Bleue, and a dead-ringer for Jean Patou's lovely but discontinued Divine Folie sans civet & musk, though a little darker. Absolutely beautiful for cold weather, with a...

    Oddly medicinal, and much like Bois Blond. There's something medicinal/rubbery here, a touch of the green woodsy quality of Bois Blond, and a bit of a smoky note. However, this ends up being...

    Top notes smell exactly like Alberto VO5, and take me instantly back to childhood visits to my Grandmother's mobile home. Love my Grandmother; hate Alberto VO5. Sorry PG, this one is not for me.

    Funny though how the previous review nails it right on! I do get the slight Bazooka-Bubble-Gum notes and I love them; my husband on the other hand, gets the tires, rubber and well the smell of...

    My skin usually amplifies sweetness, but with Bois de Copaiba, it does the exact opposite. There is no sweetness at all. Zilch. No orange pulp, ginger or amaretto. Nothing remotely gourmand...

    My mother makes a candy out of the white part of the orange (the stuff we usually throw away). She cooks that with some sugar, vanilla, spices, and hint of liquor (and lots of love) and lets it...
