This is one of my favorites. It lasts on me which is unusual... I love it, the spice, the richness, the sweetness,the rum...........Gimme more; all day long. I will always repurchase this. Oh...

I advise caution in applying this - it is a sweet and very pungent scent which cannot be washed off and will attract the attention of anyone within a six foot radius, so be sure you like it before...

This is perfection. It has broken my Lolita Lempicka rut. Unfortunately it is kind of similiar to Lolita Lempick in that it is a gourmand fragrance. There is a lovely tobacco, amber, cinnamon...

Absolutely beautiful, and beautifully edible, without losing any of its elegance. I know many people look down a bit on the gourmand fragrances ... thinking that they're just too sweet, or that...

The Hermessences that I have tried so far have had one attribute in common: They are as weightless and transparent as a fine chiffon scarf, but at the same time quite substantial. This is...

I seriously can't believe I haven't reviewed this. I LOVE this scent to death. I recently finished a 5ml decant and have moved onto one of the Hermes 15ml bottles which is showing true love. If...

Of all the noses in the world to beguile, why did you have to choose mine? You're so expensive and not easy to get. When I first put you in my wrist I smelled amber, cedar, and a hint of tobacco....

It was just amber on me, with a little edge. If I wanted to wear something this amber-y, why wouldn't I wear Serge Lutens Amber Sultan, which is like a river of gold...amber flowing into heaven? ...

Purchased a sample of this on The Perfumed Court (if you haven't seen this site, go there NOW! Great way to try out scents). I agree with most reviewers here that it smells very much like a spicy...

Mary66 has it right when she says sweet tobacco with amber and honey and leather. It is lovely, very like my beloved Ambre Russe without the vodka-swilling Tsars and their animals furs. It's a...

I think this is a very well made scent. Unique, rich, and long-lasting. The spiciness reminds me of Coco, with the tinge of sweetness. However, the tobacco note is much too strong for my tastes, so...

Gorgeous and yummy. Goes on with a strong cinnamon note, but with the texture of spun gold. Perfectly blended honeyed cinnamon. Apples and sweet caramel, with a bit of tobacco underneath it all....

I have rarely worn a Hermès fragrance that I didn't like, but Ambre Narguilé of the Hermessence series is by far the most pleasing scent I have encountered in the Hermès collection. The notes of...

Cinnamon apple pie made with fruit plucked from the tree in the garden of Eden and baked by the angels in a manna crust. It's beyond delicious on my skin - I'm afraid that I really need more of this.

I wasn't as "wowed" by this fragrance as others have been. Although I think it's an interesting perfume, the overwhelming smell of sweet tobacco is just nauseating. If I wanted to smell like...

This is, I think, the best in the Hermessence series. Sumptuous, elegant, well blended. Notes include : Sesame Seed, Cinnamon, Rum Note, Caramel, Honey, Praline-coated Tonka, Faham Orchid ,...

Well, I waited until I was travelling in Italy to buy myself a bottle of this. I could've purchased it at home but wanted the origin of the purchase to be special. So I waltzed into the Hermes...

I am an amber fan. Even while knowing where amber actually comes from, I'm still a fan. I like the raw cold amber (Paul and Joe Bleu), amber sweetened with vanilla (SL Bois de Vanille), and warm...
