    This is a lovely unisex leather scent. I love it for summer daytime especially because sweet floral or foodie scents get really cloying in the heat. I think this one is very skin chemistry...

    I swapped for this and I enjoyed the opening. It's dark and moody-maybe even naughty. But it fizzles in the drydown and is not long lasting.

    Why? Why, why, why do I even try these things? Okay, because I liked the name. This thing has notes? I thought it was just liquid vinyl.

    I get no leather at all. What I get with this deeply strange scent is bunny rabbits. A friend of mine keeps rabbits and there's a scent when you enter the hutch of warm, dusky air, silky bunny fur,...

    Yuck! Bandaids! Medical! Potent! Terrible! I received a free aample of this pungent venom with a recent order. I almost mailed it back but it's the only bad one I received out of all my previous...

    This one needs more than one try. Didn't like it at first, but the soft, leathery smell grew on me, started haunting me..Also great layered with AL Roses

    For me the most discernible notes in this fragragrance are tobacco, leather/suede, moss, and conifers. This is the most potent and complex scent of the 7 Ava Luxe samples I ordered (...plus the 2...

    For me, Film Noir is plagued by the same essential trouble as Serge Lutens' Chypre Rouge. Both try to sustain an uneasy duality between earthy green and sticky-sweet. Chypre Rouge conjures a shady...

    Leather yes, but soft and not overwhelming. A touch more old time perfumy than I normally wear. I wouldn't buy the bottle, but I won't be ditching my sample (as I frequently do).

    Maybe Film Stock would have been a better name. I am a cineaste and this has a truly impressive list of notes, so I was expecting Robert Mitchum, Lauren Bacall! Instead I get Liev Schreiber and...

    I don't know what the dark, sharp note is, but I don't like it. And it's not because I can't handle leather chypres, either--I like Cuir de Russie and Jolie Madame, and love Cabochard.

    This smells exactly like Daim Blond - exactly. I put one on each wrist and the difference is negligible. I might like Film Noir ever so slightly better than Daim Blond as it is slightly sweeter, a...

    This is predominantly a soft leather scent on me, with a hint of tobacco. The notes have been listed below, but I really do not smell the civet at all. Fans of leather and tobacco ought to at...

    Ah, this hasn't been a great bunch from Ava Luxe. Check out the notes for this one: black leather, Canadian hemlock spruce, ambergris, mousse de chine, morrocan rose, black amber, green grass,...
