    Possibly the most offensive fragrance I have ever smelled. I couldn't actually believe that it was being sold, and that people were actually buying it. Horrifying.

    When this fragrance works with one's chemistry, it is dead sexy. (When it clashes, it stinks like cinnamon thrown on a fire of rotten, burning logs, with a drop of cat pee added for good measure. )...

    lush, heady, dark, opulent, spicy, sexy, serious, pungent, sultry… the only oriental perfume that works on me without turning musky or sweet or floral. this is an aphrodisiac. it’s so rich in the...

    Stinky, too strong, overbearing, and nose-tingling. A very strong spicy-woody fragrance. You will either sneeze or wish you could. Not a nice smell to have on those around you. If you wear this...

    This is the fragrance of an 80s glam girl. I first received this as a Christmas gift in 1984 and I wore it constantly for several years, particularly in the winter. I recently sprayed this in a...

    I got a bottle for Christmas but it's waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too overpowering. I love the spicy warm scent, but it's just too strong.

    No, it is NOT like Youth Dew or Opium... Far from it. Cinnabar starts out so spicy, you might actually feel the cooling spice effect on your skin. Give it time. Soon a beautiful, powdery heart...

    This perfume is, in my mind, what Christmas smells like. This is probably because this is the perfume that my mum wears when she goes out to Christmas dinner-dances. It smells warm and welcoming to...

    A very warm, spicy,sexy scent. It is very much a cold weather scent because of its intensity. It lasts a long time. i agree with the reviewer that said that the packaging should be changed, it...

    This review is for Cinnabar lotion. It's very similar to Youth Dew, but has some of the best richness of YD removed. Cinnabar retains the incense of YD, and a strong carnation center. Overall, I...

    I asked for this for Christmas and got the perfume/body lotion. I really love the scent, but I do agree that it is a winter scent. Unfortunately, I live in Miami - so I got very little use out of...

    Just tried this one on in a store today. I was hoping it would smell a little more original. The name conjours up an eastern spice market and yes, it sure is spicy. On me it smelt very similar to...

    +Wonderfully ambery at the dry down. Before that glorious phase, it gives a leaner & more spare effect than it's celebrated and loathed cousin Youth Dew. To my nose, a bracing cinnamon-soap...
