    Having heard about this 'honey-like' creation of Serge Lutens, I have to admit to really having looked forward to trying it... I was hoping that is would smell something like my Honey St. Ives...

    I know no one else has mentioned this, and it leads me to believe my chemistry is purposely hating my recent Serge Lutens attempts in order to keep me (and my bank account) from plunging. This...

    Starts off as a yummy honey smell that reminds me of that Italian honey shower gel. Very sweet and beeswaxy. Then, it morphs into an incense smell, like frankincense and myrrh. All very subtle...

    Just when I thought I liked honey as a note, along comes Miel de Bois to remind me of how vile undiluted honey can smell without any buffering notes like almond. And the dry woods here just serve...

    A most unpleasant and persistant scent, bringing to mind an old jar of honey that has been pushed to the back of the cupboard to languish for years with the unused spices. Dried up, bitter &...

    I love this! I think this may be my favorite SL scent! This is the only honey scent that does not turn awful on me....and it is long lasting.

    Honey. REAL honey! Not the sweet-and-nothing-else artificial aroma so often called honey, but the real thing, sweet and raw and woody and untamed honey in the great outdoors. And unlike any other...

    Oh no....another major miss on a fragrance that I have been lemming --- I even received this as a bonus gift in a recent swap. I'm sorry to say that I'll have to pass it on to someone else....

    AGH! I'm trapped inside a beehive with the air slowly being sucked out and replaced by clumps of used cat litter! On me this is overwhelming, nauseatingly and cloyingly honey from start to finish,...

    A rare miss from Serge. I'm slowly learning that I can't "do" honey scents but even so, this is really unpleasant. Cheap man's cologne overlaid with sharp honey. I hesitate to even recommend this...

    It is beautiful. Maybe a little sharp first two minutes than sweet honey softened it and powdered Iris is very nice in the base.

    I smell the honey, and I smell the wood...but they're just not meant to be together. Before I tried Miel de Bois, I was imagining how well a creamy wood scent like sandalwood would pair with sweet...

    I so wanted to love this. There was an initial blast of honey and sandalwood, which to me was like the rich woman's version of Tweed. It softened somewhat after an hour or so but by the end of...

    It's a kind of pure hatred, really. I can't speak about the drydown, because both times I've tested this fragrance I've had to wash it off after five minutes. It's the Bois that disturbs me more...

    WOW! My inner thighs shuddered at this smell! This is the exact same scent of the wax my salon uses for my bikini waxes. Immediate pain. This is not one I would voluntarily choose to wear. And of...

    Miel de Bois is the most realistic honey-based fragrance I have smelled - and I have sniffed many, as honey is one of my favorite scents. For me, it's basically a big chunk of waxy honeycomb in the...
