Fragrances -L'Artisan Fragrances - Fou d Absinthe

FdA opens sharply (gin on the rocks?) and soon turns into a warm, soapy, and slightly powdery scent that is quite unique. A bit on the masculine side, but very wearable. Definitely worth a try.

Round, smooth, sweet sandalwood, very real, very beautiful. Intriguingly, from time to time, some unexpected notes jump out, and that makes it more interesting. A master piece.

Fragrances -Guerlain - La Petite Robe Noire

The idea of a little black dress in a bottle is beautiful, and the decision on using a bunch of "black" notes is also smart, but the result is not as interesting: too generic especially after the top notes are gone.

Thanks to my fellow MUAers, I decided to try this seemingly scary color, and it's truly unbelievably stunning! It brightened up my face instantly. Great for cool-toned gals.

Simply beautiful. Lots of freshly picked jasmine flowers and a hint of lily of the valley. The base notes are smooth, and the staying power is nice. HG for me.

Fragrances -By Kilian - Beyond Love

This is smooth and velvety tuberose at its best, almost painfully beautiful. The coconut note makes it really creamy. The jasmine note and other notes make it not completely linear. I consider it more wearable than Carnal Flower, especially in warm weather.

Fragrances -Christian Dior - Escale Aux Marquises
rated 5 of 5

Love it! The opening is very similar to Escale a Portofino, which I adore for the freshness. Then the tiare note and other sweet soft floral notes come out beautifully. It also reminds me of Guerlain precious heart (an LE), but better because of the clean top notes.

A beautiful (and feminine) twist on a classic. The new version is warmer and long-lasting. Guess it will work better in cooler days.

Fragrances -Christian Dior - Escale á Portofino

Beautiful cologne for summer, fresh, clean, soapy, not at all sweet, just like a summer breeze. The lasting power is pretty good. My favorite among the three escales.
