OMG. This is so delicious. You can really smell the spices. I went to Greneda for my honeymoon (the spice island), and this reminds me of the markets there. Warm, spicy, sweet, and oh so inviting. I highly recommend this for anyone who loves spicy gourmand scents.
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM….

This is the kind of fragrance that was made with the sole purpose of making you or others around you respond in a exclamatory way. Upon first spray, I couldn’t believe how indistinguishable this was from Glade’s(yes, air freshener) Nutcracker Crunch. Another honorable mention would probably be a snickerdoodle cookie. Longevity is more than worthy of a purchase. I don’t really want to repeat what has been said already. Everyone’s account of this perfume is spot on. What I like to add is this fragrance is also an aphrodisiac. Big Time. In conclusion, this fragrance isn’t kinda foody; it’s REAL foody! As long as you’re comfortable with that, you should have no problem liking this one.

*L’antichambre – Speculoos
Ohhh, here i offer you cookies – from the oven – so hot and so real!
It was made with peanut butter, nuts and vanilla. Too much gourmand. A little touch of spices too.
Creamy, warm, a true gourmand scent – but we can get tired of this, could make things boring – so linear too.
I would say it is quite similar to Bois Farine but stronger and more gourmand.
Bois Farine is better and it is more complex, changing a lot on my skin.
Speculoos is not that bad but i can get easily tired of using it.

The topnotes of this fragrance smell like a gorgeous spicy fresh biscuit (cookie to Americans). It has lovely cinnamon, cloves, vanilla but unfortunately a loud floury cookie dough note takes over the longer it stays on your skin. My second skin trial with this scent made me very certain that this is not for me. I do not want to smell gooey like eggnog and cookie dough. Nice attempt from these perfumers but they have done so many other things really well, I don’t know what they were thinking here.

What a wonderful dark gourmand this is! I’m transported to Holland in Christmas time with the yummy speculaas cookies next to my cup of coffee. This is my first L’antichambre sample and I am totally in love with it. (the double o of the name is in Belgium, with double a in Holland).
It is very well blended so that you smell the cookie (not that sweet as the real cookie fortunately)and its spices but as a whole, you can of course concentrate and find the cinnamon, the cloves, the ginger and the cardamom but they all make a greater thing than its ingredients. The spices remain throughout but soft, not at all annoying as you may expect from the notes.
Please sample this and let it develop, it will turn darker as if the cookie stayed longer in the oven and got slightly burned (and bitter! mmm). Great stuff, unisex 100%. I thank so much the vanilla is there but playing a second role (at some points even disappearing from stage and re appearing for a grand finale).
Wonderful, I’m simply counting coin by coin in order to buy a full bottle for next winter! Sillage and longevity are rather moderate. Oh Holland and Dutch people how I miss you all!

This has a very strong and spicy opening, with the cloves especially at the forefront (which I don’t particularly take to). When it dries down, the vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg are left and it takes on a lovely and warm flavor! I say flavor because it does actually smell a bit like a delectably sweet, spicy cookie after about half an hour. This is a really interesting fragrance! I like it!

This is supposed to be the perfumery version of a special cookie, but I got only a simple, cheap smelling vanilla-cookie scent like you’d find in an inexpensive home or soap fragrance oil. Disappointing for this price point, but there are other fragrances in the line that are much better.
