This smells really nice--very, very clean but a little too sharp. On me, there is no powder whatsoever, which might have lent the sweet note that would have made me love it. I loved the peppery dry...

Parfum Sacre is one of the best fragrances ever made, period. It's a magical combination of vanilla, incense, rose and spice that works for pretty much any situation or time of year. I can't...

After reading all of these very educational reviews I had to seek out the Caron counter and try it for myself. first try: The only thing I could smell on the little paper strip was Turpentine and I...

Frankly, I feel there should be some sort of cosmic exemption clause for my favorite perfumers so that they can live radically long lives and continue creating amazing scents for many generations. ...

Well. No pepper, or any other kind of spice. No orange blossom. No jasmine. Lots of powder, though, for about two hours. Then the drowsy incense wakes up and peeks its head out, and is shortly...

This was my first Caron perfume. I could not believe someone would purposely make a perfume start out smelling like pepper, but there it was. Oh well. It doesnt last long and then there is that...

This was my first Caron experience. Bought a bottle of eau de parfum on ebay for a knock-down price, and was so looking forward to trying it after all the great reviews I had heard. I was...

This fragrance is lovely....absolutely lovely. This would be a great first time Caron scent for anyone new to the line. It is definitely worth a try. On me, the scent seems ethereal. So soft...

I love this sweet and spicy scent. It's peppery yet sweet at the same time, but it's not sharp or overpowering. Gorgeous.

Some of these fragrance reviews are so well written and instructive, there's nothing I can add to them except to say that Parfum Sacre gets my 5/5 vote. As others have already said, it's a...

I know it is supposed to be a great scent but I just couldn't get over the overwhelming pepper notes that came out on me. That is all I could smell.

It goes on very strong, so strong it's almost scary, but give it a few minutes because the fragrance soon turns into a beautiful oriental/spicy mixture that only the house of Caron could come up...

Holy cow - what a wonderful fragrance! Let me just say that although I adore perfumes, I can't really tell the difference between one note and another - i tend to smell a perfume as a whole and i...

Pepper, coriander, clove, then vanilla, jasmine, and orange blossom. No matter what you think those ingredients may smell like, the blend turns out to be subtle with no sharpness whatsoever, warm,...

This perfume is so smooth. Perhaps it is the name, but it’s rather reminiscent to Sacré Coeur in twilight; Parisian summer nights; the hot earth of Malta. I put this perfume on every evening,...

This perfume is full of surprises, very rich and multilayered! It starts off with what you may describe as a classical oriental: Olibanum (Frankincense), Myrrh, Cinnamon and Spices, with a...

I liked this at first, but it hasn't worn well over time... I'm tired of it. It's gotten boring. It has a nice, powdery, floral quality, but it seems old-fashioned. I'm looking forward to buying...
