Fragrances -Unlisted Brand - Esteban Sensuelle Russie
rated 5 of 5
Ivirginia 1/16/2008 8:56:00 AM

ESTEBAN Sensuelle Russie Eau de Toilette warms the heart and soul with a rich, spicy aroma. Caress the skin and bask in the warmth of the evening dusk. Rich amber and woods calm the freshness of bergamot orange and pine, while cedar, cinnamon, cardamom and patchouli add to this composition with harmony and grace. A beautiful woody oriental, that’s warm, inviting and very sensuous. MY REVIEW COMING SOON

Fragrances -Unlisted Brand - Esteban Secrete Afrique
rated 5 of 5
Ivirginia 1/16/2008 8:54:00 AM

ESTEBAN Secrete Afrique Eau de Toilette - Piles of juicy oranges, lemons and limes are stacked next to small dishes of freshly grated ginger sprinkled with a touch of sugar. Clean cedar shavings rest in open pots made of elaborate brocade, while soft patchouli lingers like an undercurrent of warm earth. Secrete Afrique is a reverent interpretation of African culture, conjuring the sweetness and the dark, the lush fruits of the soil next to the mysteries of the earth itself. Sparkling but rich; refreshing, but darkly delicious, Secrete Afrique is a delight for the senses. MY REVIEW COMING SOON

Ivirginia 1/16/2008 8:53:00 AM

Esteban Passion Bresil Eau de Toilette - Journey to a summer day in Rio de Janeiro with this unique interpretation that captures the very essence of Brazil. Light musk, crisp green florals and an unexpected undercurrent of robust coffee flower conjure an unforgettable South American holiday that lingers long after the final caipirinha. A touch of fruit lends sweetness to the composition, reminiscent of a sun-soaked open market on a warm summer day. Beautifully complex, yet deliciously simple. MY REVIEW COMING SOON

Femonine without being girly, sophisticated, clean I see this as a great office scent, had the drydown nor been so soapy this would have gotten another lippie from me. It's really the only flaw I find in this one is the soapy note at the bottom.

Fragrances -Bond No.9 - Coney Island
rated 1 of 5

I really had high hopes for Coney Island, but alas..it was just dreadfull on me. IMO this smells cheap and highly chemical. DH said he thought it smelled like watermelon, but that I didn't get fruit here I get laundry detergent, yucky chemical marine note, and some tart sweetness at the bottom... but nonetheless a total scrubber.

What a lovely surprise..I was expecting this would be overly chocolaty and/or syrupy but instead I found it to be just right! The chocolate is not too sweet, the incense and rose are smoky, and best of all the perfume keeps changing the longer you wear it... fbw!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fragrances -Fresh - Tangerine Lychee
rated 3 of 5
Ivirginia 4/9/2007 10:00:00 AM

I happen to stumble upon this nice scent while browsing the SALE items at a local beauty product/perfume boutique here in Miami and I was pleasently surprised! at first it's a bit too strong and fruity..ripe fruity.. but after a few minutes the scent settles rather nicely. I didn't expect to like the combination on Tangerine and Lychee but it does blend well together...I am now considering returning to said boutique and buying me a bottle (if the price is right!) ;)

Gorgeous scent that is conprised of 2 different musks. Green African Musk & Tunisian Musk blended with French Vanilla makes this a snuggly, warm, comforting skin scent that is delicious alone but it also compliments other scents when layered! fbw!

Fragrances -Unlisted Brand - Lily Lambert- Pavo
rated 4 of 5
Ivirginia 3/14/2007 11:49:00 PM

soft, sexy and delicious! it starts out sweet and a bit powdery settles into a gorgeous sweet blend of musk, carnation, pepper, and my guess Vanilla. the pepper note is not very pronounced and IMO this is well blended with the rest of the notes!

I am really enjoying my sample of this thanks to the lovely Colombina. I think it's perfect for spring/summer...I don't think I'll be buying a whole bottle only because they dry-down smells almost identical to Apothia Velvet Rope which I own already!..I may just get a decant of this!

a beautiful sweet floriental... this was gorgeous and super feminine and not at all like the Original First! my only complain is the lasting power I could barely smell it after 3 hours..
