Admittedly, there are times in life when a little boredom seems not only acceptable but actually to be fervently wished for. These are the times for Eau Lente. It starts out nice and spicy, with a...

I have a category of scents I call my cashmere/book scents which I reach for each year the very *second* the weather starts to turn cool in the fall. I love this time of year! They all are...

Starts out really strong and spicy with lots of clove and cinnamon, but dries down soft, with just a little sweetness and spice. Sort of reminds me of Old Spice, but better.

I adore this perfume - it's spicy, pretty and sweet . On me it smelled exactly like one of the Shoyeido traditional Japanese incenses - Kyoto Autumn Leaves, maybe. Since that's one of my favorite...

What I smell is a sweet spicy opening that quickly reminds me of cedar blends. After a bit it takes on a vanillic base..still with plenty of clove-spice and cedar. I don't know what the notes...

Yuck yuck yuck. This smells like Old Spice on me. Although I have to add that (as we all know) it will smell different on somebody else. I put it on a male friend and on him it smelled like baby...

I am in love with this fragrance. Since I love the smell of clove, this one does it for me. I'm torn between a bottle of this or another bottle of Spellbound. If you like Spellbound by Estee...

...just what I've been looking for. Something clovey but a LITTLE sweet. It manages to be clovey and, in my opinion beautiful and sexy, even ladylike. Kira just sent me one of the great Diptyque...

Very warm, spicy and exotic, smells "ancient", in a good way. Has a HUGE sillage, too!

This is not the scent for everyone. But the lucky few will LOVE it! I'm the kind of person who smells terrible in fruits & florals, but give me a nice clove/cinnamon/amber scent, and I'm in...

Interesting. I got no "middle Eastern" cuisine feel from it, more like a churchy meets powdery/amberish note in the beginning. It had promises with its interesting spice-meets-powder opening, but...

Well, it's definitely not like the OTHER perfumes! Very aromatic upon application. It's a really interesting scent, and because of that, I enjoyed trying it. Pretty potent, too: the fragrance was...

Nice, well-rounded spiciness upon application, but on my skin, the scent becomes something entirely different after the dry-down. All that's left is a one-dimensional sweetness that reminds me of...

Cinnamon, cardamon, a little mint? Cloves! Could this be the spicy, middle eastern inspired twin brother to Oyedo? Usually something my friend Fadia will put in her Syrian meat pies but in a bottle...

I'll reserve my opinion for the soap until I have tried it, thanks to Christian's review below, but I do *not* care for this fragrance. I often like spicy scents, like Tea for Two, but Eau Lente...

Sadly, this spice-based perfume was very masculine on me. Within moments of putting it on, it transformed becoming far more smoky and musky than I would have liked. It's a shame, really, because...
