Or Des Indes by Maître Parfumeur et Gantier opens with a puff of aldehydes and powdery notes and immediately reminds me of Ombre Rose L'Original by Jean Charles Brosseau. Like OR, ODI has a vintage...

I get why others are comparing this one to Guerlains. On me, Or Des Indes smells like a combination of Mitsouko and Shalimar with a touch more amber. It doesn't feel very original to me. I can...

This didn't duplicate Guerlain for me (and I also have the three scetns elaborate mentioned) I get printer's ink and faint rose incense. For some reason it's very like Jour de Fete on me, without...

Testing this from a sampler spray. A tiny little drop squirted on back of hand. I wasn't paying attention but then it caught my attention because it smells rather familiar - have I accidentally...

Very spicy chypre (although this is classified as a vanilic oriental) Bold and strong, makes no apologies. This is not a subdued or a sklin scent! Even if it was born in 2005, this frag screams...

I have two words for you: flea powder. Specifically, I think it was the scent of Hartz flea collars in the early 1980s. Either way, Or des Indes smells like doggie products from my childhood. I...

I would put this in the incense family. Opoponax is a primary ingredient. There is something of amber and perhaps sandalwood as well. It is a warm, soft fragrance with a very subtle spiciness. ...

Overall, the impression is overwhelmingly ambery, but not pure amber. Another adjective that springs immediately to mind is "perfume-y". I have not been able to pin down what makes a scent...

I could easily call Or des Indes a vintage time travel to India>The perfume blends the sun-backed bazzars and back alleys with the pastel coloured prim knit cardigans and the crisp cotton skirts of...

On me, this was a louder, brasher version of Chanel's Bois des Iles. While the latter whispers its spicy, woodsy, powdery warmth, Or des Indes announces it. It's not a bad scent; it's just been...

Spices and amber, a little bit of powdery sweetness. It dries down to a very heavy powder and amber and nothing else. There are other ambers and powders that are better suited for me, so this is...

Or des Indes is a very beautiful oriental, deep and smooth without being oversweet. The nearest scent I could compare it to would be Vol de Nuit, although I think Or des Indes is darker and fuller...

This smells just like India! And I love the way India smells -- I just don't want to wear it. It's a very intriguing scent, and it sounds like it works for some other MUAers. I think I'll...

I love the powdery aspect of this, if the perfumy notes had not taken over this might have had a home in my collection. gave me a huge headache.

This smells of curry and citrus to me. Very underwhelming. Initially the fragrance is bright and clean and a bit powdery, but then the spice notes start to come out. This spice-citrus mixture does...
