    Versailles

    Grand, courtly and robust: a glittering, golden scent that would do Louis XIV proud. Gilded red and gold citrus with amber, ruby roses, jasmine and orris. This is an incredibly sophisticated and complex scent! I can see fine aristocratic ladies from 16th century France putting this one right after a discussion in the salon to a dance in the evening. In bottle: Smelled very dark and rich, a vague citrus but mostly amber. Wet: Very strong amber, some jasmine Dry: Very slight sweetness, a smallest touch of honey, tamed by amber and refined with jasmine, some powder thrown in the middle. It has this full decadence and "royal"ness to it. It makes me think of all the work and steps that go into women's beauty rituals at the time to create an image of beauty. 1 hour later: Still very much like the way it is dry, perhaps a bit more of the honey but still a very layered scent.

    Meditation in Autumn

    I am a fan of masculine-ish scents, so I found this absolutely lovely. It's soft enough for me to wear without being accused of wearing cologne. I do get a smell hint of citrus-y fruitiness, but it's extremely subtle. The dominant notes I sense are the old wood, sandalwood, and some cologne-likeness. I can smell the dustiness towards its finish, which makes it a more "serious" scent.
