I have not posted a review for my beloved POTL Luctor et Emergo because I did not think I could explain in words how stunning this scent is. It is my favorite perfume that I will never live...

I received decants of POTL parfum and EDT from a lovely. Surprisingly, the EDT lasted longer on me than the parfum. I was a little cautious of POTL because I was worried about the woodiness and...

Strangely, this smells like cooked soya beans with a touch of cherry almond to me... I don't exactly smell playdough, but if you've ever smelled boiled soya beans straight from the stove, this is...

Cherry Vanilla with powdery woods! Strangely elegant, very off-beat scent that smells like cherries powdered with confectioners' sugar, but has depth. Highly addictive.

One expects a lot for this kind of money, and in some odd sort of way this perfume delivers. It is one of those gentle fragrances that is hard to detect on myself, and yet seems to envelope the...

WHOA!!! This took me back on a trip to somewhere in my childhood - and I don't know where - not a nasty memory, but it felt extremely odd all the same. I also got images of wandering through...

P.T. Barnum should be around to see the popularity of this fragrance. He would chuckle.

According to the PotL website, Luctor et Emergo is a "bouquet of fresh grasses, various white flowers, vanilla and precious woods". Oddly enough all I get is cherry almond, no flowers, no woods,...

I purchased a decant of this from a lovely MUA'er, and I have to say that I can understand what all the hype is about. This fragrance is sweet, warm, smoky and spicy all at once. A definite must...

I ordered a sample of this from George at First-in-Fragrance.com. I asked him for samples of light, citrus-like yet elegant scents. He sent me forty samples. Among the samples was a vial of...

When first trying this fragrance, it was difficult to comprehend what all the fuss was about. I put it on, let it go for awhile and thought little of it, thinking that it was called sweet but...

In some bottles, there's a big, sheer, Rahat-like cherry note in beginning (not my bottle, but it's there in others). This quickly fades away into Luctor's true character...a mixture of sweet, warm...
