    Oh no. Oh phew. I loved this in the bottle, and from the notes it should have been love at first sniff. But on my skin, it turned to a mixture of stale Emeraude, paprika, and gin. Not for...

    This is a warm spicy scent, but there are others I like much more (i.e., Opium, Perfect Love by CS, Geisha Noire, etc.). This one has too much of an orange top note for my taste.

    This is nice after it dries down, but not a favorite. I've always known there was a fragrance out there that would provoke the phrase, "That smells like my grandmother" from someone and aparently...

    The first time I smelled this was springtime at the rue de Grenelle shop in Paris. My sister and I had the best ever sales person - I think she was general manager for the whole operation, and she...

    I discovered the Malle line of scents several years ago and it struck me that the most remarkable thing about them was that they all smell like "something else". I thought it was an interesting,...

    I love a good'n'spicy fragrance and I usually go for men's colognes (Egoiste is my all-time favorite), so I was very excited to try NE. Body chemistry's a real b%$@ch. It smelled nothing like...

    This was one of the scents recommended for me when I took the test over at the Frederic Malle website. While Iris Poudre didn't work so well on me, this choice and Lys Mediterranee were both dead...

    This was not love at first sniff. However, Michel Roudnitska has created two of my other all time favorites, DelRae's Amoureuse and Bois de Paradis, so, believing in trusting that sort of...

    tequila, sraight. No lime, no salt. This would be great for people looking for liquor scents, but after an unsavory post-tequila experience, I can't get far enough away from this.

    When I sampled this long ago, I thought I'd like it. There's a danger to only testing this lightly (a dab from a vial). When I sprayed this on, from a very generous sample supplied by Malle, I...

    It has taken me a while to work up to reviewing this perfume, just because my feelings about it seem to be so different from everybody else's. I came to it at least a year before I joined this...

    I bought the test kit last summer and was unimpressed with this one when I tried it. Maybe it was the wrong season; maybe it was just me. All I got was black pepper with harsh edges, as if the...

    This scent is Fabulous..I didn't think I would fall for it. If your looking for a spicey scent and Nanadebary didn't work for you...this is the Nutmeg scent you've been looking for...Bottle Worthy!!!

    Very spicy scent with subtle powdery undertones that did also did a morph on me. I think FM scents are special because they do just that, mold to the individual. Although this isn't one I am dying...

    Another WOW! The thing I love about Frederic Malle fragrances is their complexity. The first burst was rose and cedar. The drydown on me is geranium and clove. This is not overpowering on me but it...

    While I admire the unique composition of this scent, it almost killed me. I got a strong allergic reaction to it - feeling suffocated and coughing. Alas, not for me.
