This was $60 on FragranceNet.
Empereur is spicy and clean. Cinnamon, violet and lavender seem to be the main players here. It has a subtle sweetness, but feels natural. It does not project whatsoever – which I find to be a little strange, given the notes and the parfum concentration.
The smell itself is very welcoming and enjoyable. I can’t say it’s a stunner – but for $60, I would gladly buy it again.
While I can’t think of anything that this smells like, you will not likely find it to be unique. I can see this being a very nice fall/spring office or casual scent. Maybe with 10 sprays you could wear it in the winter.
Pleased to add to the collection.
Edit: this reminds me of casual Friday by escada.

Extremely attractive, elegant and flirty multi-seasonal work of art for all occasions and moods. Best recommended for people working in creative fields. Every time I wear it, my mind goes millions different directions, all of which leads me to feel delighted both with myself and everything around me. If the water of life exists, than it smells like Le Roi Empereur.
The core of the fragrance is magically composed of spicy and zesty routes to so many distinct places and times, you don’t even need to be a writer to first focus on the most relevant allusion and then to develop an original story.
I am writing this review just two hours before the Summer, so let there be a retrospective of Marseille.

Warm, smooth, orange blossom – tinged lavender infused oriental. Anise and cinnamon provide the wam spices, while a touch of amber/vanilla provide a smooth, creamy undertone. Cozy.

I have 2 batches which I bought on 2014 and 2015:
Batch 023 S219. Alcohol content stated as 79% (2014)
Batch U272 015. Alcohol content stated as 77% (2015)
Comparison:
The later batch (2015) has more intensity in the basenote. The overal frag. smells stronger (better sillage). The longevity is about the same with the old one, however, it project slightly more heavy compared with the previous batch.
AnnaSmejnikova – :
This is a well-blended fragrance having an observation that it doesn’t evolve that much. This reminds me of men’s cologne (must be the orange blossom and lavander combination. Although it doesn’t announce brutal, masculine cologne. It is more refined than that, but it also doesn’t scream royalty or elite. Kind of in the middle, which makes me think, is this fragrance just a so-so fragrance? Because the notes seem really promising. Not very powdery, not very spicy, and definitely not very floral. For me, the best description on this one is balanced, and nothing ostentatious. Which is good if you just want a daily fragrance, with the fact that it relatively performs well.
