A delicious, fruity-spicy scent, that I must admit sometimes smells like a World Market or a Pier One around Christmas.

Beautiful scent but completely unwearable as a perfume, which kind of defeats the point of having it. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a wonderful, almost intoxicating scent and Iove smelling it, but it’s...

The composition of Arabie according to the pamphlet I received: Cedar, candied mandarin peel, dried figs, brown dates and musk.

Darn it, my fruit-amplifying skin did it to this one too--too much orange. I love gourmand fragrances and thought this would be awesome on me.

Hmm. I had high hopes for Arabie; I love gourmand fragrances. It goes on smelling strong, aggressive and sweet, just a bit spicy, and makes me feel as if I am being pelted with preserved fruit. ...

If you like the prunes-stewed-in-cumin thing, Rochas Femme has it going on for a much more reasonable price.

I don't wear many fragrances - I tend to have two or three and stick with them for years. And Arabie will be one of those for years. While others pick up on the fruity/spicy aspect, what my skin...

I must confess that Arabie was all Yankee Candle on me. As I took that first whiff of it those were the first 2 words that came to mind. It smelled very much like one of their pumpkin spice/autumn...

Ok, from the description, I thought this would be right up my fragrance alley. Exotic, spicy, sweet, full of Arabian dreams and magic carpet rides. Bought a decant on ebay, sprayed it on, and was...

Yes, it's a bakery item. Gorgeous, lovely. I get gingerbread from this, though I can see the rum-cake and fruit cake notes others have mentioned. And I do love it, but I won't be paying over $100...

What an amazing scent. Smoke, leather, cherry, almond...all this happens in dazzling array, then it settles into a spice market, simmering on my skin all day. Delicious.

Blech! I'm sniffing at it, trying to enjoy the spices but keep getting choked by the nasty fatty sugary slime. Its as if a snail crawled on my arm and left a trail of stale buñuelos.

This would be wonderful -- for someone else. I am reminded of mincemeat pie or plum pudding. I can smell dried fruits, dark honey, citron, spices, a dash of vanilla, and maybe even some brandy. ...
