Beautiful tropical notes (not usually my thing) but this is gorgeous. Usually find tropical frags to be too OTT. Very lush. Longlasting but subtle enough to wear at work. hard to fault this.

Tolu, how I love thee! This fragrance has narrowly bumped Bois des Iles out of my number one spot. Others have described it well already, so I'll simply say that this is a rich, womanly, unique...

So when I got this much anticipated (I'm a saffron lover, and I had heard it was very saffrony from Ayala) sample in the mail from a wonderful scent swapper (thanks Eaumy), I spritzed it on...

Now this is one of those cases of a scent I appreciate without being at all interested in it. I'm not a Tropical scent lover, unless I'm in Hawaii or another tropical island (maybe some day!) and...

It's funny, I can detect some kin of an OJ signature in this scent, it shares a mysterious something with Ta'If, which I simply adore, as is not the case with this scent, which smells downright...

The first 15 mins of this is just incredible; when I first smelt this I thought this is IT. However as the beautiful top notes fade the perfume, which starts out smelling amazing, ends up...

It's usually the base notes I love most in a fragrance, so I was thrilled to find that in Tolu the bright, spicy notes of orange blossom, broom, juniper berry and sage were woven into the...

Basmati rice, green tea, pepper and bamboo - when I read those notes I was quite sure the gods of fragrance had answered my prayers and sent me the perfect scent. This combination is sheer genius....

I'm actually giving the three rating to my abysmally uncooperative skin chemistry, not to Ormonde. Ormonde is a scent I *seriously* want to like. Everything about it is perfect as far as I can...

Sampaguita got lukewarm reviews from several of my OJ loving friends, so my expectations were comfortably low when I finally did try it and I was, consequently, quite surprised at being immediately...

Ta'if is a wonderfully unique rose scent. It's a soft, lush, spicy rose that is in my mind powerfully and inextricably associated with memories of living and traveling in the Middle East. It is...

The Ormonde Jayne line gives me the distinct sensation of havinig entered into a bizarre fun house where everything is upside down, all logical expectations reversed. I fully expected to have...

I live in an area where blooming osmanthus bushes fill the air each spring with their lush, sweet scent. I have come to the bitter, inordinately tragic conclusion that replicating the true scent...

I've finally had the chance to give the Ormonde Jayne scents a good, solid test drive after receiving the beautiful sampler from Linda Pilkington. I gave myself a reasonably small dose of Champaca...

What an extraordinary floral! Fresh, citrusy, sparkling and very long lasting. Very few florals last on my skin, but this one is discernible hours and hours after application. In hot summer weather...

I am a huge fan of Ormonde Jayne fragrances so I am bias when it comes to reviewing her products. I have to say I have not been crazy for her last two scent releases. I just did not swoon over...

This is a FABULOUS vetiver; right up there with Malle's Vetiver Extraordinaire, and similarly unisex. On me this scent is 100% gender neutral. The vetiver used in Isfahan is just first rate: so dry...

I'm horrible at describing scents but this says what Champaca is to me...
