   |  Starts off with a weird singed note like burnt sugar + pipe tobacco, strongly felt under a light haze of powder. In retrospect, this was my favorite part of the ride. The powdery cloud unfurls, and for that strange dark bottom anchors it while some pretty rosy and nutty notes appear in glimpses through the fog. At this point, I still like it, with reservations, but the powder keeps unfurling, getting pinker and pinker. In the morning, I still smelled powder and pinkness on the back of my hand where I had sampled. Not nice. 03 September 2009 |
   |  Serge Luten’s Rahät Loukoum doesn’t last long enough, Montale’s Oriental Dream is absolutely perfect but, alas, Keiko Mecheri’s effort is simply too powdery for my tastes.[Original submission date: 06 August 2008] 27 June 2009 |
   |  Lalique Le Parfum, Hermes Ambre Narguile and KM Loukhoum smell very alike to me. Cake icing sweet, powdery and with a waft of vanilla pipe tobacco. I have ended up with all three, but really they are so alike I guess I should not have bothered. Still, I would not want to choose just one, as they each have their own take on the theme. They are lovely but you really have to like smelling sweet! 12 June 2009 |
 | Hmmm...this is a dry one. It smells like a baby wearing a diaper with a load of Johnson's baby power in it who just shoved slobbery cherry smarties down that same diaper. Cherry baby powder for me. Now don't get me wrong, cherry is nice and so is baby powder. But here in the grown up world I like to smell like a big girl, not a toddler. Save this one for little ladies who like to smell "sweet and innocent". I like to smell like a smoldering temptress myself :) 23 January 2009 |
 | Starts as a spicy, dry almond; woody and floral. There is a touch of powder. After a while the heliotrope (cherry vanilla) emerges more strongly and spicy/sweet. This is similar to the cherry cough syrup note in Louve, but it interestingly appears in the drydown rather than at the beginning like Louve. I prefer this to Louve. 15 January 2009 |
 | Loukhoum = Johnson's Baby Oil + vanilla pipe tobacco + honey. Really bizarre, interesting, overpowering; I can see how this could be a total love affair for some, but I couldn't wear it; it's too sickly for me. 12 January 2009 |
