    I wanted to like this so much since I'm a huge fan of Guerlain and oriental fragrances! However, on me, this smells rather like a public restroom air freshener. I have and love Misouko, L'Heure...

    Owned this way back when, when I was 19 and didn't know anything about perfume houses, notes, etc. I loved the warm sandalwood scent, and had to track it down after smelling it on a lovely woman. ...

    Other reviewers have done a wonderful job of explaining the specific notes indicative of this scent. I, therefore, will explain how it makes me feel. Samara to me is a crisp, cool, autumn day in...

    Big and loud, and oh so 80s. That's why I love it! Very heavy on the sandalwood and I get a hint of baby powder in there too. There is also something slightly artificial about the scent, but not in...

    Very incensey, woody fragrance. I wont ever understand the reason why people LOVE this so much. I hated, it should be called "HEADACHE IN A BOTTLE". That´s all I can say about it. I would never buy...

    This is my favorite perfume for evening or those times when you want a little extra kick to the scent you wear. It starts off almost spicy on me and dries to an exotic, clean, unique scent with a...

    Samsara is a lovely jasmine-sandalwood oriental fragrance. It has the gorgeous creamy vanilla Guerlain base. Its only downsides are (1) due to its huge popularity in the 80's many people feel...

    This is a very good perfume. It`s sexy, and warm and sultry and it`s not powdery or overpowering. It`s also a very very very easilly recognisable fragrance. That said, it`s also an 80`s or so...

    Ahh... memories. This was my signature fragrance along with Dior's Poison back in the late '80 when I was a teenager. Not a teenager scent, but at the time there were no cotton candies for girls. I...

    I used to hate this fragrance, but I gave it another try this fall, and it smells nice. It totally goes with my chemistry, as long as you don't put too much. It kind of does 'melt' into your skin....

    Samsara is a proclamatory Oriental from the era when an Oriental had to detonate in order to be effective. Samsara rode the tailwinds of the epic Orientals like Cinnabar and Opium, both of which...

    This is a very "Guerlinade" Guerlain fragrance; lots of rich and resinous sandalwood and incense notes. If you like Shalimar or L'Heure Bleue, Samsara is their smoldering, spicy cousin. I have a...
