A limited edition (EDP) inspired by an Espresso Martini. After a slightly “boozy” opening with a “chocolate” coffee aroma, there is mainly a dark musk / amber that I feel like a leather accord. A leather accord reminiscent of Caron's...

An orange-aromatic citrus fragrance that is far from a traditional chypre. Although the juicy orange dominates all evolution it is not a linear EDP. It evolves with a complex structure like that of Azemour les Orangers. Although both are masterpieces,...

Quentin Birsh manages to perfect the first version of Ganymed. If the EDP version was already fabulous, Extrait is even more extraordinary. Denser, warmer. I found no difference in sillage or duration. It suits all seasons of the year. No aromachemical...

Sophisticated, rich, deep fragrance with a dry blond tobacco, boozy and spicy with a healthy dose of warm cocoa and vanilla - based on amber base and soft suede leather. More like Hans Hendley's Bourbon than Tom Ford's Tobacco Vanilla as has been heralded...

Maderas de Oriente Oscuro is easily associated with dark burnt woods. For me it's a kind of return to olfactory memories linked to a Portuguese fireplace in the interior of the country. It feels like I'm having breakfast with homemade...

It all starts in the kitchen of a house made with old wood and with the aroma of a mound of coffee beans in the center of a table illuminated by a beam of light. There is a melancholic and introspective aura. The aroma is delicate and does not project...

Opulent, ambery, spicy, incense/woody. It is a chic and intriguing oriental. A perfume with enormous quality and projection / sillage that leaves no one indifferent. It provides an opening with a fantastic personality made of black velvet and smoke...

This review is about the original (1978, EDT pre-reformulation) Karl Lagerfeld Cologne for Men “splash” (now called the “Karl Lagerfeld Classic”). A comfortable leather jacket that opens leaving a trail of honey and incense. There is an aura...

After Nuit de Bakélite (masterpiece) this was the second good surprise I experienced from the Naomi Goodsir range. Essentially a woody incense that is generally associated with smoke from campfires. However there is much more. There...

Red oranges dominate the opening but are seasoned with Cinnamon, Ginger and Cardamom in a bitter-sweet accord that immerses us in elegance and class. Very interesting how the floral accord in the middle begins shortly after to accentuate the sweetness...

The citrus opening with green apples and the yellow flowers of a wild field bring back good memories. I associate the aroma with a vacation in Ibiza in the summer of 1978. After arriving at the port, I headed towards the San Mateo...

An addictive delight: floral, oriental with a sweet and spicy vanilla with a woody resinous and smoky amber accords. Silage is moderate and has a longevity that exceeds 12 hours. The price is affordable for the size and quality. It...
