SCARY top and middle territory, here. The aldehydic top will knock you and everyone else over. The cumin middle note risks offending at least half the people you meet if you leave the house too...

My first impression after spraying is a vivid olfactory hallucination of fresh-peeled orange -- the oils in the air like a prism of citrus. It's amazingly uplifting: floral, fresh, green, bitter...

Well - this scent may be to some people's liking - I know some who are crazy for it but I am not. I don't like the opening and I was disappointed with it . I guess it's personal taste.

Beautiful and unique fragrance. Warm plums and juicy melons, with a faint hint of jasmine and violets. The energy of this parfum is gentle, wistful, and innocent. Imagine a little girl with a bowl...

A modern, bracing, woody fragrance that reminds me a lot of my beloved Banana Republic Modern (which has been discontinued) and a little bit of Tuscany per Oumo by Aramis. These scents are...

A floral aldehyde very similar to Lanvin's Arpege, but a more modern, lighter, sweeter version.

Beautiful orange top notes, then a quick burst of B.O. which eventually settles into a warm, peppery, elegant citrus reminiscent of Annick Goutal's Eau d'Hadrien.

Very clean, freshly showered, pretty, feminine, mild, inoffensive. The drydown reminds me of a much lighter version of the drydown of AV by Adrienne Vittadini. (Plus, I got 50 ml of AV at TJ Maxx...

I can definitely understand how this must be absolutely gorgeous with some chemitries, but on me it smells like Carmex -- a medicinal vanilla scent. It's not bad at all, other than the fact that I...

For me I got a totally different scent the second time I courted this one. It could be chemistry but I have the feeling this will be my impression from here on out. This, like many reviewers have...

I received a sample of this from FM, along with Carnal Flower and En Passant. Although it's very different from Carnal Flower, I love it just as much. I was worried it would smell too "flowery" ...

I received this from FM as a sample, along with Iris Poudre and En Passant. I love it! I should say that I know nothing about the art or science of fragrance, I just know I love how this smells! ...
