Very unique and fresh. Reminds me of the wind in spring.

I obtained a sample of this after reading the histrionic reviews about this being "gothic" "archaic" "spooky" "of another era". I was sold by the evocative descriptions and the intriguing backstory...

This is my FAVORITE! I smelled this on someone I work with and lost my mind. I got a bottle and put some in an atomizer so I can wear this wherever I go. It is a rich, sexy floral. Husband also...

This soap is the most luxurious soap I've ever used in my life. The smell is heavenly and it leaves my skin silky to the touch.

The smell is heavenly and the texture light and non greasybut moisturizing enough if you have normal skin.

I've followed this site for many years but this is the first time I've felt compelled to write a review. I'll just start by saying that I have troublesome hair - thick, wavy (but not nicely curly)...

I've heard you shouldn't use rosewater on your face but I don't think that's true lol (at least not for me). I use this as a very moisturising toner but it gets rid of cleanser well too (I like...

Ah, finally I got the chance to smell this after I always had it in mind since seeing it with Vesper Lind in James Bond. It is a lovely soapy, very mossy cologne scent, herby and fresh at first,...

SMN scents are the odd ones really. Freesia was love on second sight for me. I ordered it without testing because I liked the description. When I got it the first impulse was " I like it" - fresh,...

SMN Frangipani is a weird one, as many here have attested. It has to be your preference. For me, it is. My aunt used to tease me with Winona Ryder's quote from Beatlejuice, " I am the strange and...

I went directly to a Santa Maria Novella store determined to get a unique and new fragrance. I got paper stick samples of most of the cologne herbal group and at first I did not care for this one,...

I got Santa Maria Novella soap Gelsomino as a gift when I purchased some fragrance, so I don’t know the price, but I think it is around $8 for 100gram bar of soap.

Herbal notes, watery florals and powdery clean musk that remind me of a dog shampoo we had years ago to wash the mutt. Muschio isn't actually bad, though. As it dries it becomes a lot like Bruno...

SMN Mughetto is beautiful - the classic LOTV scent we recognize and love. SMN's accents the floral and the powdery more than the green, and is quite strong - I never had a problem with sillage or...
