Notes: orris, violet, rice powder, chocolate, ambrette, sandalwood, vetiver, and grey amber.
After sampling, this seems a woody floral to me. Soft, yet grounded. I'm a sucker for violet, and...

This fragrance really highlights the osmanthus note beautifully. I have a small vial of osmanthus absolute, and the smell reminds me of the skin of an overripe apricot—very warm and fruity with a...

This velvety tea fragrance is so much more than just a nice office scent, in my opinion. There is a wonderful apricot note here that gives the composition sweetness, as well as osmanthus that...

EDIT: Second time round with this, it just seems to smell clean. You have to look for the complexity to find it; on the surface, it seems pretty simple.
Opens with a strong pine note - so much...

Wowza! This is the most va-va-va-voom amber I've ever tried. This scent has a lovely amber-beeswax scent on my skin but it is mixed with something boozy as well as a faint hint of tobacco. The...

I don't get the nasty edge on this one. It starts with loud boozy alcohol and fades past tea and leather into a gentle, slightly spicy beeswax. I've never been able to wear amber without the body...

Really not that interesting. I suppose if you love amber and that's it, this might be your scent but it doesn't last long and it doesn't develop. A snooze for me.

I don't get much femininity from this fragrance. To me it starts off herbally and astringent and dies down to a slightly powdery, slightly lemony, unisex fragrance without much throw. I can see...

Eau Suave is a powdery rose with many facets, like a chameleon or an
opal. Soft and pretty. The later drydown is less remarkable, so a point off for that.

They must have gotten up to some pretty naughty things with that much booze and I can smell 'em! Yuck! Gotta wash this off! Salty loins do not go with my chemistry no much how much amber you put...

I love how luxurious this smells. The other reviewers have described this already and in much better detail than I could, but I do love how rich and decadent this smells. I agree that this is...

Supposedly, this was Empress Josephine's Favorite rose. Josephine had Napoleon wrapped around her finger. Now I understand why. This is intriguing, spicy, different, deep, sensual, fascinating,...

Oh dear, so disappointing. I thought I would love this based on everyone's reviews, but it was too boozy, too much like stale champagne from the night before. I couldn't get through that note to...

What a surprise! Not a surprise that I like it - I was expecting to, being a fan of Parfum d'Empire - but it's much soapier than I had anticipated. From talk on the boards I had envisaged a dark,...

I love this fragrance. It's not your typical rose scent. This one is deep and yet it's fresh. I love it. It's my fave. from this line. And very long lasting. I woke up and still smelled amazing...

Eau Suave is a stunner! It's an unsual rose that has a hint of medicinal note that was very popular during the Napoleonic period. This was Empress Josephine's favorite scent. I can see why....

Ambre Russe's drydown is lovely: a dusty, resiny amber and tobacco blend that is both comforting and intriguing, recalling Ormonde Jayne's Tolu fragrance, and also the exquisite scent of L'Artisan...
