This is a wonderful warm scent that works better in chilly weather, or for an evening out. I tried this during a warm day and it was too stuffy, but I remember how much I love it in the...

Arriving home after a chilly lunch by the coast I was in the mood to dab on a nice spicy warming fragrance. Normally I would reach for my bottle of Cinnabar by Estee Lauder because it is one of my...

Just a beautiful spicy fragrance that is warm. If you love Shalimar by Guerlain, chances are you'll love this too. It's a great evening scent, or in colder weather. Top notes are cinnamon and...

I write this on a very cold winter day. My turtle neck is high. From it I smell L'eau Lente's warm spicy scent. Once sprayed it lasts the whole day. It is a strong, spicy, mature scent best...

Out of the bottle this perfume smells a lot like baby powder, and a Chanel type perfume you would find on your grandmas nightstand. BUT once you spray it on your skin it evolves into something much...

Eau Lente starts off vanillic or heliotropic, and quickly evolves into a powdery spicy incense that reminds me of a simplified Shalimar. In the end, the incense proved a bit too much for me.

I love this and it's currently the only one of my literally hundreds of perfumes that I reach for. I was cautious after reading the reviews about the clove element as it isn't a smell I enjoy but I...

Eau Lente from 1986 is such a beautiful scent. It has a presence not many mainstream fragrances exhibits today, designed to suit most people whatever the difference. Eau Lente however, is not for...

My skin eats up perfume so none really last more than 4-6 hours on me at the very best. This perfume, however, will last 24 hours on me and has nice sillage for maybe the first 12. I think that...

Not a fan, its like a dry spice mixture with some opoponax and it smells slightly masculine, thats not what bother me though, its just this weird slightly-off sensation I get at the start, and then...

Gorgeous but difficult for others to appreciate. To me, this fragrance feels like sucking the flesh of a ripe mango, with the same chalky-fizzy sensation. Beautifully spiced; I get is cardamom and...

Gorgeous light spicy fragrance that smells like an old-fashioned pomander ball. It's a little medicinal and very refreshing as well. Refreshes mind and spirit as well as body. It's lovely. But...

I was struck by the resemblance to Ambre Sultan, at the opening. Very spicy gourmand stuff, like mincemeat pie. It softens and turns powdery, and becomes a bit like Talco Delicato, and yes, a...

1st try (applied normal) ALL spice.. nutmeg, clove, a bit pungent! Smelled too masculine. 2nd try (applied lightly!) Yum! Dry & peaceful spicy, with touch of soft sweetness in background. 1...

For me, rnornan's description (below) is most accurate, except the spice is definitely clove (and I can see why the other reviewer found it minty, but it's definitely clove and very present). Of...

I love Keeter's review (see below): Totally made me laugh. But I have to say that after the overwhelming cinnamon wore off (about an hour) this ended up as a lovely myrrh scent. I spent a lot of...

I'm saddened to see so many bombs in reviews. Eau Lente is the designer version of Old Spice, it's true. At first I didn't believe it. But having done compare/contrast a few times, I must admit...

I enjoyed this one, and it's so unusal. It's kind of sweet and slightly powdery with a kind of mint-like scent, and it made me think of those pink wintergreen Necco-like candies. But it's not girly...

Smells to me like carnation with baby powder. A bit of spice thrown in for good measure. Perfectly pleasant but does not speak to me. It reminds me of the feel of MPG Or des Indes....as I smell an...
