Take Infusion d'Iris edp & add Benzoin Oppoponax (Manoa from Memo) A bit of mastica Concentrated vanilla (vintage Shalimar) Very very nice.

Smells like oppoponax. Burning oppoponax. Dry down is a copy/paste of Ambre Fetiche. I give it a neutral rating because it's not bad. Nice oppoponax based perfume but it could've been more complex. I see a lot of notes mentioned but in reality...

Opens with sparkly lemon & brilliant bergamot with a clear styrax/tolu accord in the background. Some Clove. Instantly recognizable as an Andy Tauer. Transitions into a a soft floral accord sitting on a dusty base (the signature Andy base). The...

Opening is a handful. It starts out unapologetic. All notes radiating at maximum capacity. Bitter almond (no sweetness) and apricot made dusty by the tobacco leaves. A faint sparkle from the bergamot. The tonka balances the patchouli. No dainty...

Starts out very industrial. Adhesive chemicals mixed with tar & petrol. Along the lines of Le Labo Patchouli 24 but no where as warm and enveloping. More like the whipping gesture of Gomma mixed with Etro, Nostalgia &...

I too can't figure it out completely. It's very sweet the first ten minutes. Not candy floss , not chocolate, not caramel. Some sweet I can't put my finger on at the moment. The middle part is my favorite. Some floral accord tainted with...

Alright. I gave this a couple of wearings. Before I review it I have a few remarks, If this is the Arabian Nights finale, then well done. Bravo. Kilian has managed to seal an excellent series with a perfume that captures every shining...

SotD La Fumee Ottoman - Miller Harris If you're familiar with La Fumee, you'll relate to this review. In a nut shell, this is La Fumee with the incense toned down and a very very sober rose added. This would appeal to doting La Fumee fans...

The notes are in there, but they're not. It's a perfume but it's not. It's abstract art perfume. But not all abstract art is good. Hence my rating.

Or [I]Stay Away from the Club[/I] in this case. Opens with a soft orange blossom gripped by a very firm aldehyhde and a bit of bergamot. Shortly jasmine and tuberose make their presence. The tuberose is not a a voluptuous one like...

Nuit de Tubereuse is a combination of accords from Dzongkha & Timbuktu with tuberose added in. Take the cardamom , pink pepper and mango from Timbuktu, add to it the white tea and incense from Dzonka...

The use of galbanum in Heure Exquise is outstanding. She's managed to compose a perfume that's absolutely sultry. The soft floral accord pierced and ravished by the galbanum. Rendering a perfume that would've aptly been named Carnal Orchard....
