   |  Now on paper I should love this one but nope I just don't get it. All I get from it the medical, surgical even disinfectant really not nice. 15 February 2009 |
   |  A rich and complex Oriental, and a real bargain for the price! If you like Tabu, this one's going to be right up your alley. (Same holds true for Youth Dew, IMHO.) In fact, I've always thought that Royal Secret smells very like a hybrid of the two, although it leans slightly more in Tabu's direction.A warm and memorable treat (with great sillage and outstanding longevity, btw) for very little moolah. I'm SO glad that Monteil sold the formula to someone else so this juice could stay in production! 18 December 2008 |
 | My Mom used to wear this when I was a kid. Occasionally I'll smell this on some older women. It was really popular in the 60's and even into the early 70's. It is very subtle and pleasant but a little bit on the heavy side though not sickening in any way. More of a winter fragrance. 16 December 2008 |
  |  Powerful stuff! Very, very similiar to L'Artisan's Ambre Extreme (which to me smells like they stole the idea from good old cheap Royal Secret). I so strongly associate this with my grandmother that I cannot actually bear to smell it on anyone else, and it certainly strikes me as inappropriate for most younger women. But if you feel mature and are into heavy, serious orientals, do try - definitely if you like ambers!09 December 2008 |

| I am surprised there are not more reviews of this fragrance. It is a lovely, classic oriental and very reasonably priced. I ordered this one un-sniffed, based on the notes and fragrance classification, and I'm so glad I did. Warm, spicy, not too sharp-smelling or overpowering. Perfectly suitable for daytime and office wear. My husband says it smells slightly incensey on me, must be the myrrh! Good, safe oriental scent. 27 August 2008 |

| On me this is warm spicy, yet light & conservative. This really does make you smell like a true blueblood. The bottle is beautiful in its simplicity, It knows it's an aristocrat so there is no need to shout. There is a Royal Secret II which I'd also like to try. I've added some information on this scent below: Originally launched in 1935 by Germaine Monteil, and recently relaunched by Five Star, Royal Secret is a rich and yummy oriental fragrance. A Powerful and Memorable Fragrance, Perfect For Crisp Autumn Days Royal Secret is an Oriental fragrance. Top notes: citrus, African orange Heart notes: Bulgarian rose, jasmine Base notes: sandalwood, musk, myrrh 12 April 2006 |
