    Sad to say, I was excited for this. With the cost of shipping and handling I shelled out $22 for a 2 ml bottle and thought nothing of it. I had been reading tons of reviews to find a scent that...

    This fits its description. It starts off like a campfire and dries down to smoky sweetness mixed with each person's skin chemistry. My husband and I are avid campers, and though it's very rare I...

    Another disappointment. I love the smell of bonfires and burning leaves. But for whatever reason, the burning smell generally just doesn't translate well in liquid form. For example, Ava Luxe's...

    First off, I love this fragrance. Secondly, I'm afraid that everyone has written such beautiful descriptions that I won't have much more to add. Thirdly, however, my boyfriend asked me to warn...

    I just got my sample size absolute of this scent. When I first put it on, it definitely smelled like smoke, almost like mesquite. For a moment it had a slightly chemically scent, but thankfully,...

    I'm afraid I also get fake liquid smoke. This is mixed with sugar, and while it's not dreadful, it's not what I recall burning leaves to smell like, maple or otherwise. Ah, well, I was excited to...

    This is not at all wearable to me. I don't even really get burning leaves from this -- It smells like a dead campfire. I also get Liquid Smoke that you use for cooking. Interesting, evocative...

    This was instant love for me. Burning leaves is an absolutely beautiful scent. This is one of those things that I want to be able to smell forever. It's also probably my husband's very...

    You know the incense like stick you would light your firecrackers with as a child? This smells exactly like one of those after it is put out and still smoking. It is a rich, smoky, mildly incensey...

    This does smell like burning leaves and a little charred wood, but it lacks the sweetness that I associate with burning *maple* leaves.

    I love this fragrance! In the bottle and immediately after spraying, it smells exactly like burning maple leaves, smoky and rich. After drying down, this gorgeous incense note lingers. I get...

    This is just fantastic. Another "experience" rather than a perfume from Mr B. It really does smell like burning maple leaves as the description states. For a bit, I smell some clove but I am sure...

    "Burning Leaves" is a scent that is true to its name. Like other CB perfumes, it does not smell like at all like "perfume". Instead Burning Leaves invokes fireplaces, piles of dried leaves set...

    (WaterPerfume) This is quite pungently smoky in the beginning. (I dabbed it on - it would probably be better misted lightly.) It smells much to me like the bottled hickory smoke that is used for...

    I absolutely LOVE this type of fragrance. It smells JUST like it sounds. This is one of my favortie scents in the Fall, and CB has captured it beautifully. He really is an artist. Simple, but...

    This stuff smells incredible. To me, it's sweet smoke and burnt sugar. At first I get a toasted marshmallow note, then more of a woody-smoky lingering effect. The absolute lasts a very long time....

    Christopher Broisus describes his scent as "The smoke of burning maple leaves - pure & simple." I myself smell what at first seems to be an insanely accurate rendition of the scent of a bonfire...
