Aventus by Creed, 2010

Writing as a casual fragrance user, I think the fruity opening is fresh and inviting, and as the scent progresses, I want to sniff it even more. The projection is pretty wide for the first 30 to...

L.12.12 Noir / Black by Lacoste, 2013
Reviewed by Erok32

L 12 12 Noir smells fantastic. It's slightly sweet, yet fresh, and is suitable for all occasions. However, the longevity is pretty poor. If I spray this on my arm, it's undetectable within an hr or 2.

I am seeing a lot of "orange" scent comments, but to me, I smell a lot of Iris scent in it?

It actually starts off with a boozy, almost rum-like scent as you put it on. But that dries down to the most austere leather-and-smoky-vetiver I have ever smelled. I would swear there's a note of...

I'm a little confused by the presence of two Joséphine's in the directory -- one by Rancé and one by Rancé 1795

If one clicks on the house-link for each, they both link to the same place.
Is there a difference? Is one a reformulation perhaps? Or is this an accidental double-entry?

My manufacturer's sample vial of Joséphine does not list Rancé 1795 as its house. Instead it says "Rancé & C. s.r.l. Milano Italia Made in Italy".

My wife has a bottle of this for sale in the marketplace.
I believe it must be an accidental double-entry. The labeling of their bottles, and also their website, is a little ambiguous.
Here is the link.
