Vanille 44 by Le Labo

Love it! Nothing bad to say. Sexy on a man and a woman. Not an offensive vanilla. Not exagerrated on the sweetness. Smells sensual, musky, airy and sweet. I take two!

Outrageous! by Editions de Parfums Frederic Malle

Low budget fragrance should be price in its category. It smells cheap. The only note that smells decent is the bergamote in it. Everything else gives me nausea. Sorry Mr. Malle.

Never smelled anything close to it. Musky, medicinal, oriental and metallic. Dry down is amazing! Very sexy but also odd. Left me speechless. Everyone wants it but I am not telling where to get it. Worth every penny!

Tubereuse 40 by Le Labo

If people understand the smell of raw tubereuse oil by itself then they will understand T40. Normally tubereuse smells like a floral gardenia, citrus and green. Its been combined by that exact combination so that when it drys down, it ends up smelling like a natural tubereuse. Just have to deal with the "cologne smell" of citrus in the beginning. Thumbs up from me!

Neroli 36 by Le Labo

You want a fresh scent that you can smell on yourself all day long? N36!!! The marine notes are long lasting. High quality! Don't expect it to smell like your typical neroli. It is unisex but I find it better on a woman. A year round scent overall.

Patchouli 24 by Le Labo

An astounding love it or hate it fragrance! Smells like a smokey fireplace in the first 5 minutes and then turns into a passionate leathery amber. Finally a different patchouli. All patch scent have always smelled the same and now its been covered by other fabulous ingrediants so that you only can smell a hint of it on the dry down. Don't want a migrain, get P24

Rose 31 by Le Labo

The first real rose scent for men. Everyone that ever hated rose will love this one. All you have to love is fresh spices of incense, pepper and vetiver. An amazing scent for men or women! Two thumbs up in my book...

Iris 39 by Le Labo

Love it but would wear it untill I am 50. Earthy, bitter, sweet and very musky! So musky that you can see it in the bottle. Thick oil that looks like they might turn to solids after a while. Very pure. Has some lime and ginger with civet. A kool down to earth mature scent.

Labdanum 18 / Ciste 18 by Le Labo

If you been waiting for Maurice to release a musky scent geared towards women then L18 is fabulous. His past scents such as Musc Ravageur and Helmut Lang were mainly unisex fragrances. L18 is more feminine and uses finer animalic musk notes such as civet. Love Shalimar? Want something just a little more modern, try L18.

Jasmin 17 by Le Labo

Maurice took another route in fragrance making. A white flower scent, but he left a trail of powdery notes behind. Its a fresh white flower scent with woody, sweet and musky notes. Drys down as a gentle floral. Men love it on me!!

Fleur d'Oranger 27 by Le Labo

Break it down in a couple of words. Sharp, dry, green, aromatic and floral. Its a fantastic summery unisex combination. Not meant to be a traditiional fleur d orange. Would only by in the summer.
