    At the top I smell mostly cinnamon and a bit of strange curry (is this the saffron?), which fades quickly. The cinnamon lingers a bit longer, and after a few minutes I do smell a bit of rose. It...

    A very spicy fragrance, with good lasting power and more sillage than any other L'artisan perfume I've tried. Spicy but also somewhat dry and slightly sweet, it trully matches the gold color of the...

    Safran Troublant is one fragrance that has stood out in my recent journey of discovering perfumes on a more than simply superficial level. It's among my favorites. I have always liked smells that...

    As much about rose and vanilla as it is about saffron. I like but don't love it--I think it's too foody for me. For a spiced rose by Giacobetti, I prefer Monsoon Season--in spite of its name, it's...

    Light and spicy, almost transparent/spicy -- an unusual combination indeed. I don't smell any creaminess and its lightly gourmand note is not something I would like for my fragrance. It remains...

    Sweet rice pudding?? Creamy milk?? I would spend a whole week's wage on any perfume that has those scents in it, so LUCKY i only bought a sample of this. I can't smell either of those things - Im...

    This scent smells like the color "gold" to me. It's luminous, sweet, warm, gourmand yet sophisticated. It's a great Winter scent, though I've been experimenting wearing it on Spring days, as...

    I agree with the other reviews that say this smells like Indian rice pudding: sweet, cardomom-y, warm. It's pleasant enough, but I kept hoping for more - more depth or complexity or something...

    I love Safran Troublant. I swapped for a full bottle of this, never having smelled it, based entirely on the notes and the reviews here in Pville. I swore I'd never do that again, but I'm so glad...

    Such a strange fragrance on me its almost like two completely different fragrances it starts out as a very harsh saffron then after an hour or so turns into a very sweet creamy vanilla. I hate the...

    Safran Troublant is like following up a delicious Indian meal with an equally delicious Indian dessert. This fragrance is mostly all about the dessert course, but it does open with what smells...

    Erm...this smells like straight up BO on me. A weird sort of plasticky BO scent floats above a bed of vanilla, violet, rose, musk and sandalwood . Every once in a while the notes waft past my nose...

    The opening of Safran Troublant smells, as other reviewers have pointed out, just like Indian rice pudding, with raisins and rosewater. I am half Indian, and this fragrance definitely hits some...

    Wet on the skin I inhale saffron and raisins as rosewater is sprinkled on top. The whole dish fades and harmonizes as it dries, with the rose predominant over the saffron. Quite lovely but it...

    I got this in the spice coffret set, and I think this is my favorite of the bunch (with the poive piquant as the second fav)! This is an absolutely dreamy fragrance - the vanilla, saffron, and...

    I would describe this scent as a finer quality of Chloe Narcisse mixed with a deep spicy but soft rose. This lasted well on me considering i used a dab on sample. If you like spicy orientals...

    I got a sample of this a long time ago and was watching a bottle on e-bay, so decided that I'd pull the sample out to see if I liked it enough to buy a bottle. No. It smells pleasant enough,...

    While not the most complex scent I've ever owned, Safran Troublant stands out to me as one of the more unique scents I've tried. Not too spicy, not too sweet, SF is an almost unisex gourmand. It's...
