Wrong fragrance in the decant? I didn't smell orange blossom or any other the other poetic things noted by previous reviewers. This was a scrubber. Too heavy and vintage for even my Tabac Blond...

Oh my, this is an exotic, seductive, smoky, leather scent. Other reviewers have listed the notes so I will not repeat them. I have the extrait and it is divine. I have not tried any other...

I am not especially fond of citrus-heavy perfumes, but I do like Alpona! It was introduced in 1939 for the World's Fair in New York, and it must have been quite daring in its day. It's daring (for...

Once again, Caron has done a lot of dammage to one of their greatest florals. Bellodgia has undergone reformulation - and smells like the reformulated Royal Bain with some added spices and a touch...

Funny, this one works on me. I get a aldehydic, delicious powdery bitter orange that smells French, formal and expensive. Many many Caron's don't work on me, so maybe since this one does, it...

This is my favorite carnation perfume. These carnations are no sad flowers decorating a prom corsage or a funeral parlor. Bellodgia's carnations are wonderfully creamy and spicy, and accented with...

Orange blossom perfumes often smell like pure sunshine to me, and Narcisse Blanc is no exception. It's Narcisse Noir's diurnal foil. While Narcisse Noir dresses in black and gold, Narcisse Blanc...

Parfum Sacre is one of those perfumes that caught my attention when I was new to the world of fragrances beyond Shalimar and Chanel No.5. I didn't exactly like it at first sniff, but it did...

Narcisse Noir was my first Caron, and it's still one of my favorites. Orange blossom usually reminds me of sunshine and summer days, but in Narcisse Noir, it broods and pounds out a mean rendition...

I should never wear this on a workday. The smell is making me want to go out and buy a bakewell tart and then spoon out all the frangipane and jam, leaving the crust behind (allowing me to eat...

First, a few words of extreme caution: Make absolutely sure that you are getting the pure parfum/extrait. There is an EDP out there (which some try to pass on as the extrait), but it is VERY...

Trusting the expert's recommendations can be risky. Many scents praised by Turin/Sanchez are fantastic indeed - and I share their views - but YATAGAN is one of the most digusting things I ever...

Acid stuff. Unpleasant from top-note to dry-down. Bought it first in 1981, smelled it again recently at the Caron store Avenue Montaigne, and it still smells as artificial as in the 80's. Like...

Dull fragrance. Re-formulation has harmed it. I supposwe I will have to stop buying Caron parfums soon, because most of them are only a shadow of their old selves. Very deplorable.

If you're into this kind of soliflore-fragrance, go for Diorissimo.
This one by Caron has no staying power, smells nice for about three minutes - and then just fades away, leaving a kind of...
