    Now, this is one that snuck up on me. Opoponax, amber, and sandalwood are prominent on me, with maybe a hint of vanilla. Which would explain why I ordered this unsniffed:) God, I'm guilty of...

    I remember how deeply disappointed I was when I first sniffed this fragrance. Based on the reviews, I expected a deep, rich, sophisticated GOURMAND scent, and it is all that except the gourmand...

    This fragrance made me realize how beautiful opoponax can be, and how much I really like it in a scent. At least, I like it when it's blended like this, into this gorgeous, warm, softly spicy...

    I adore this scent. Upon first application, the heavy, powdery, almost incense-ish scent of what I assume is opoponax (myrrh) is tempered by a delicious, light orange note on me. I find it sensual,...

    Slightly powdery opoponax, amber, benzoin and hint of citrus, is what Impérial Opoponax is for me when I first apply. It’s a bit too much at first, a little sneezy; but after an hour or so, the...

    I couldn't handle the first 2 hours of this - it smells too much like a man's cologne (I am assuming that is the opoponax or it could be the benzoin) and I wrote it off thinking that after...

    This is such a beautiful fragrance. At first it's dry, powdery, and sweet. A little later it becomes woodsy, warm, and spicy. On my skin (and I'm probably only speaking for myself), the drydown is...

    Oh my GOD -- this is one fantastic fragrance. The one scent I have tried in ages that has actually made my jaw *drop* and my mouth *water*. Smoky, rich, honeyed, a bit gingerbread-esque, a bit...

    I adore opoponax as a fragrance note, so I thought for sure I'd like this one. It didn't happen. Imperial Opoponax has a great drydown -- soft, powdery and resinous -- but the opening notes are...

    When I first applied it, I thought it smells like MPG Or des Indes. I already have the MPG, so why get another. By the end of the day, I'm taking whiffs this scent and realise that I have to have...

    No surprises here: I love almost any ambery vanilla scent with a nice woody "burn" and sweet, powdery drydown, Impérial Opoponax is no exception. Another lovely imterpretation of my favourite...

    Well, I had written this one off on first whiff. Nothing special. Then I did a trial run for a day from my little sample. It turns out that there is some warm soft quality in this that has hit a...

    Quite non-descript. Notes consist of opoponax (sweet myrrh), amber, vanilla, sandalwood, benzoin, citrus. I am definitly getting the amber and sandalwood but no citrus whatsoever. It's a very sweet...
