I would buy this – for my daughter, who loves all scents that have an oceanic touch. On me, this is nothing special. My skin doesn't do this fragrance justice, it just renders it pale and watery....

Generally I'm not really the "floral type", but this is simply astonishing. It's fresh, white, has a bit of citrus and is just beautiful. The smell is rather faint on me, maybe b/c my skin is quite...

The most female scent I have ever smelled. Completely unique. I dislike florals on me, they always turn sour, headachy, and metallic. Today, the chilly mid fifty rainy June day, this dark haired...

Oh, heaven... Gorgeous scent. Very unusual, very femme fatale. At first very resinous, then surprisingly floral, soft and ambery. It reminds me of SL Douce Amère, although the staying power of Tolu...

So far, this is my least favorite in the OJ collection. I don't even like it sprayed on a paper strip or on a piece of fabric. The smell is very weak. I do detect the basmati, but that's not a...

On paper, this is gorgeous. On my skin it turns into a men's cologne, and I'm not talking about the nice kind. Still, I realize it has to do with my own chemistry and not the composition in itself,...

I knew the instant I sprayed this on my wrist it was the HG I had sought after for so long. It was strange, but I just KNEW. In fact, the moment I opened the padded envelope with the sample set I...

I like this but I'm not in love with it. Its a very strong perfume that gives me a bit of a headache. However, once it drys down it is very pleasant. To me it smells just like a freshly brewed pot...

I am a fan of Ormonde Jayne and have a deep appreciation for all of Linda's creations, but this one does not do as well with my chemistry as the others. That being said, it is a bright floral in...

The first time I sampled Ta'if, it did not go well. Saffron has a funny way of mixing with my chemistry at times. However, while in the shop in London, I tried Ta'if again and fell in love with...

I must preface this by saying that I am a huge Ormonde Jayne fan and love all of Linda's creations in different ways. Sampaquita is a beautiful summer fragrance - delicate and very feminine, soft...

As I wrote in my review of Champaca, my gut reaction on sniffing Ormonde on my right wrist, was that this was the perfect perfume: warm, dry, subtle, velvety, rich, secretive, and a teensy bit...

This one actually elicited a 'you smell nice' from my stubbornly anosmic DH. (Just to set the scene, he refers to the Guerlain Vetiver I bought him as 'that awful cologne'. Just as well I got it...

Very warm and sweet. Begins with a happy citrusy and fruity accent that is propably the apricot smell of the osmanthus bloom and then intermingles with some vanilla and a soft base. Very nice, but...
