The first couple of times I tried this I forgot all about it in a matter of minutes, and if indifference is the opposite of love, well, that wasn’t a good sign. I’ve again tried it and although...

Similar to Bois d'Iris by The Different Company, but not as good on my skin.

The best part of this fragrances is the drydown. Interesting fragrance that has a Johnson's Baby Lotion vibe to it. However, the opening notes smell like spicy dry red chilli pepper that is sharp...

A dry rose scent that tickles your nostrils. Sorry to say, but I cannot feel nor smell any iris in here. To me this is a dry, clear transparent rose scent....that manages to be peppery all the...

My personal experience with PB: I agree with those who think the name of this scent is misleading. I don't find it reminiscent of Brazil in any way. I know the "Brasil" bit refers to Brasil wood...

Well, I went down to my local Hermes store expressly for the Hermessences and I managed to get four samples, this being one of them. This is the one of which I would buy a full bottle. It's hot but...

This fragrance manages to be both spicy and ethereal. I first smelled paprika and other spice notes, after which there was a stage where it smelled almost like curry, which I did not like, but then...

It’s hard to think about pepper as part of a perfume, but it was already done before, and quite successfully. For example: Piment Brulant by l’Artisan. Paprika Brazil is an interesting twist to...

This is a man's fragrance! I didn't like it at all until the dry down, so I gave it to my mother. I won it in a drawing so I feel good about it, and gave it a three.

Having fell in love with most of the Hermessences (Ambre Narguile by Hermes is one of my top 5 frags of ALL TIME), I approached Paprika Brasil with lots of anticipation. Don't get the 'paprika'...

Paprika Brasil is the newest Hermesessence fragrance. I could not locate the actual notes, but it seems to be made up primarily of a tropical wood. I received a sample from a lovely ebayer when I...
