Goes on very fruity and floral in such a nice way. Drying down, there is more floral and less fruit, though the fruit effect is still there. It does tend to get a bit over-sweet at the end, and I...

I don't get animal or incense at all with this one. It does have a taint of 80s to me, but merely because I was alive at that time and this reminds. I don't get the terrible power suit visions...

Helloo 1980's! This scent is so full on - very raw and hedonistic scent, animalistic with no subtlety whatsoever. I found it over-powering and over-bearing and it reminded me of teased hair,...

Le Dix is a heavy, aldehydic old-fashioned floral with a lot of powder and some wood. I can see some similarities to Chanel #5 but Le Dix just smells inferior to me. I personally don't care for Le...

I was astonished to learn that Rumba was created by Jean-Claude Ellena as it is in NO WAY representative of the sheer, elegant fragrances that I associate with his minimalist, subtle style (eg....

This is a Houdini fragrance. If it was a 'hard to find fragrance' (on Luckyscent for instance) it would be ten times the price. You think it's a loud, blatant, oriental and then it morphs into...

What a sophiscated, classy perfume! Definitely nothing that would be mistaken as modern, but that's part of its charm. I smell the similarities to No.5, but where on me No.5 is sensual and...

Oh my! This IS very #5 like. A big, warm, generous aldehydic floral and diffenitely old school. If you like powder please try this. It goes back to the days when aldehydes/synthetics were...

She is all business with her fresh aldehyde blast, but dries out with mysterious incense notes, and finishes with a gentle, sweet powder. Perfect for the office, or when you need to feel classy and...

A lovely aldehydic floral that can be found at an incredibly good price. It begins with feminine florals similar to Chanel No 5, except with a prominent violet note that gives it a powdery, girlish...

This is a complex and very grownup scent. The one element I notice after the drydown is a very slight muskiness. I looked up a description of the scent and there is indeed musk in the basenotes. ...

Very nice, I like it. A bit powdery, blackberry brandy & myrrh, with this beautful wood accord that gives it a majestic but weathered feel, like an old castle or abandoned cathedral. Such a nice...

This is an emphatic scent. It is rich sweet dried fruits at first, followed by deep honeyed amber with cloves floating in and out. It is not a scent that you find immediately appealing, I think...

Not a fan of the initial blast of Talisman which smells like the fruity flavored old shiny glue they used to put on envelopes that you had to lick to seal (Dark Ages when people did handwritten...

To me, this is the ultimate powder scent. According to Osmoz, it has a lot of floral notes but I get only a hint. The powder is very dominant. Nowadays, that's also known among the young crowd (who...

This is so good to wear out on winter nights as it is such a warm fragrance. I found it to have a trail of smokey black wood, that last longer than Donna Karan, is similar to it but not as strong...

Smells like vintage jewelry. It's powdery and metallic like gold and smells like old style perfume. These are not necessarily bad things, but I'm reminded powerfully of the inside of a jewelry...

I guess I expected it to be more floral and not as powdery. I gave my test run of this a chance to develop and change. I waited out the sharp top notes, until I smelled soft, sugared violet and...

This is a very user-friendly scent for those who want to wear French fragrance without smelling "grandmalike." It is only a little aldehyde-ish and then
seems a little smoky and spicy. Very nice...
