Purchased this blind based on reviews that said it was a lot like Ormonde Jayne Woman. It's very nice but it is not much like Woman. The top notes have a bit of hawthorn but that disappears...

Extrait: I can barely smell this. When I do put my nose against my wrist it smells very nice though. Very well-blended, soft sandalwood that isn't overly sharp or masculine. Very unisex.

Recently got sample size in oil version from the perfumed court; it was the components they described that attracted me. Thank goodness I hadn't read these reviews first, that mention powderiness...

I have to share a secret! I've just fallen in love with Ormonde Jayne Woman. However, this perfume is too expensive, and besides, I have a particular sensitivity in form of itching with this...

I have read lots of raves about this fragrance so when I ordered from Ava Luxe I requested a sample. As I am not a big fan of sandalwood, I do not purchase any fragrances with this predominant...

I'm surprised by the references in reviews below to notes like lavender, hawthorn and so on because all I'm getting from this is overwhelming myrrh and a little sandalwood. If you like La Myrrhe or...

One of the nicest pleasant to the nose fragranes of Ava Luxe. I have tried over 20 of her scents and there are only about 4 that I rave about. This is a nice light sandalwood and I am a sandalwood...

I am not a huge perfumaniac, partly because I have allergies and partly because perfume is not cheap. It seems like lately so many scents are cheaply-made, overly sweet gourmand types that are...

This is lovely stuff. It's a woody floral that is reminiscent, to me, of Serge Lutens' Douce Amere. But whereas that scent was ragingly bitter wormwood on me, No. 23 has just the right proportion...

Don’t know how I can describe no 23 – it comes to me as quite sweet, and I don’t’ like sweet so much, but it has just the right sweetness for me. It is a sandalwood for sure, when I fist got the...

I don't like lavender, so I was very surprised to fall in love with Ava Luxe's No. 23. Perhaps it's because the lavender doesn't stand out - I get the acacia and sandalwood along with the...

Truly, one of the most unique fragrances I have ever smelled. Still, on my skin, it's chocolate and acacia. Weird, because chocolate is not in the note make up of No. 23... Anyway, I get a...

I almost can't even bring myself to review this fragrance. It's so enchanting, I'm afraid that it will lose it's magic if I speak about it too much. Silly, isn't it? This is a perfectly concocted...

While this *is* beautiful, I think it is just a little too powdery and floral for me. If you like those kinds of fragrances, however, I think this would be a must-try. There is something in...

Starts off with hints of Rose and Geranium with bright lavender, then dries down to a vanilla-like musky base with more Rose and Geranium and a tiny gentle sweet sandalwood note. Nice. I tried it...

Bless Serena not only for giving you a free sample with your order, but also because she obviously considers your tastes when she chooses that free sample for you. No. 23 was on my list to sample...

No. 23 is indeed a magical potion. Such a tantalizing story behind the fragrance -- I knew I had to try it. Also my DH was born on the 23rd of the month so I knew it was at least worth trying....

I got this sample as a freebie from Ava-Luxe when I ordered others and two 5 ml vials of perfume. I didn't know anything about it and just sniffed the vial, it smelled great actually, so I put it...

This is perhaps the most interesting scent of all my 12 samples, half of which are simply vile. Sandalwood, Hawthorn blossoms, Acacia, Rose, Himalayan Geranium, Lavender, and Musk. No. 23 is dry...
