A lovely oriental with powdery base. For those who love Coco, this is similar, a little less sweet. Staying power is good, much better than most on me. 80 euros for 100mL from the SMN Pharmacy...

I don't know about this one. In a word, or two, "soapy indolic"? Not a combination I think of as workable and I'm not sure it works, but I'm not sure it doesn't work either. I like it, sort of,...

This perfume is amazing. The rose scent envelops me for the entire day and it's even better when you wear it to bed. It's definitely a winter perfume, given the 'heaviness' (but not in a bad way!)...

I use this toner day and night after I wash my face. It's great as an extra cleanser and removes any left of make-up residue on my face, particularly undereye concealor.

Here comes a light and playful amber from SMN. Almost a playdoh note in the opening, but a lighter amber emerges, clearly a sibling to SMN Muschio. A bit powdery, a bit spicy, a bit leathery, just...

Love, love, love this! This is smoky, birch tar, leather heaven. The smoke and tar and pungency are so dense, this has a chewy, spicy feel. It's powerful, lasts forever, and has so much...

Gorgeous classic Eau de Cologne with a larger than usual component of honeysuckle. It's much more concentrated than your usual EDC, such as 4711 or Jean Marie Farina, and lasts beautifully. It...

In the writing of Honore de Balzac and Guy de Maupassant, they tell of noblewomen who adored the scent of new mown hay. I suspect SMN's Fieno is what they adored. This isn't "hay,' in the literal...

Smells like a shrill sour, salty, perfumy musk to me. :p Not good at all with my chemistry, but I could see the right person loving this.

I've tried, and spent lots of money on, countless different hair masks and conditioners. This is, by far, the best.

I bought this from a close friend (who found it too strong for herself) at least eight years ago, have used it very often -- usually several times a week since, and still have about 1/4 bottle...

from the jubilee "1612" pair of limited edition fragrances, Ottone is a very retro stinky men's fougere. To my nose, completely hideous! Sorry Santa! The other of the ltd edition celebrities,...
