My immediate thought upon sniffing: "UGH, what a STRONG soapy-incense smell!" Yes, I never heard of that combination before either. Anyway, this is VERY strong, very "perfumey" smelling. Has a...

Pier Paolo Pasolini s Thousand and One Nights perfume version! Mythical, controversial.

This is one of the few SL perfumes I love. I love the fact that the drydown smells amazing on my skin. I am taken aback how well it lasts - love the bitter sweet quality and the warm drydown.

Oh no, La Myrrhe is one of the Lutenses I just can't stomach! On me it turns into a nauseatingly sweet horror that gives me an instant headache. It sounds so great when I read the description but...

A fragrance of uncommon fineness, La Myrrhe brings to mind the smoothly immaculate Cary Grant. With that said, I don't mean to imply that it's a masculine scent. Indeed, the golden warmth of the...

There is a luminous quality to this perfume, and there is also a sharp undercurrent reminiscent to me of a resin; it doesn't smell like real myrrh which is deeper and darker, rather like a clean,...

This one is beautiful in a very Catholic way. Mass. Women in mantillas at the Catedral De Toledo. Conjures wonderful memories for me and I'm not even catholic! :-) Fruity character is delectable...

I have to agree with DianeL about this one. My nose can barely detect all those luscious notes that supposedly comprise this elixir because that overwhelming "perfumey" odor conks me over the head...

This fragrance is so very complex that it's hard to describe one's impressions of it. It is sufficient to say that I like this one very much, but for the uninitiated-(like me)-it takes some...

Shiseido describes La Myrrhe as "[a] myth. A perfume. Gilded notes sparkling on a mandarin harmony, softened by the caress of bitter almond. Woody sandalwood and honey tones. Essence of amber,...

Thanks to the lovely Victoriaf who sent me a sample of this. It's a pleasant fragrance, I won't deny that. However, I think I'd sooner enjoy smelling this as a candle or shower gel. Very clean and...

La Myrrhe Is composed of mandarin, almond, sandalwood, honey, amber, musk and jasmine. Sounds really good, right? Well this was one of the Lutens I most disliked. After the final dry down it has...
