I’m not used to smelling this flower so strongly, but it smells like dandelions to me! With spices and other flowers for decoration, over a nice base. I’m very pleased with this unique, well-composed fragrance.

This is beautiful. It’s a well composed and well behaved fruity floral woodsy scent. I love the peach scent that comes out of this bottle. I don’t know why I smell so much peach maybe because it’s listed twice. Unfortunately it’s a synthetic peach that doesn’t smell as good as other recreation of peach scents. The black currant is really much better and detectable as well. Lots of citrus. The fruits disappear and the rose and jasmine combination along with ylang-ylang begin their dance. The dry down is woodsy with sandalwood and cedar, it has aromatic patchouli and sweet vanilla. This is an elaborate perfume really strong and long lasting. Perfect for spring summer fall and to wear all day. One spritz maybe two but I wouldn’t spray with abandon. Beautiful. The bottle looks great as most Arthes bottles do.

I think the reviewers comparing this to TF’s Black Orchid & Missoni & mentioning chocolate & orange notes must be referring to the men’s version of LLd’A.
I have the women’s version & there is definitely no chocolate nor Black Orchid or Missoni resemblance. It reminds me of Donna Karan’s Gold with its’ strong tagetes/marigold note after the initial blast of of the citruses, then there’s a strong clove/carnation note which disappears after an hour & all you’re left with is a powdery orris blandness. I think people who like the citrus & iris/orris notes of Prada’s Infusion D’ Iris might like this if a little bitter green tagetes/marigold note doesn’t put them off.
Not sure what any of this has to do with lions or the d’Afrique decor on the box though.

After reading the newer review about Les Lions D’Arthes I found a brand new bottle on ebay and what the heck- I bought it. It sounded very interesting. Especially the description that it’s a Missoni/Tom Ford Black Orchid type fragrance. It is a very interesting one…comes on at first like it’s not sure what it is. Very strong chocolate orange. After a while, it dries down to a more subdued, yet still citrusy-chocolate fragrance, floral, cedar. Nice for a cold winter day! The bottle makes it look like a summertime scent but this is one I will be sampling all winter up here. I sprayed it on myself at around 2 pm and now it is almost 11 and it’s faint but you can still smell it. Nice!

This Perfume sadly looks better than it smells. I purchased it because of the fancy looking French name and the pretty bottle. I bought it off Ebay and when i got it it was love at first sight! When i smelled it i was disappointed. It smells like a Spiced Orange that you found while walking in the woods. Not a bad smell for fall or winter but i guess you get what you pay for because this Evaporates on me! The smell never last more than 30 mins on me before it dries to a powdery nothing. I would say only buy this for decorative purposes. It looks sooo Beautiful on my dresser!! Plus I love cats so….

Sweet floriental in the traditional way. Bright citrus notes soften down into florals tempered by traditional oriental base notes. It definitely reminds me of other scents I already own, some of them of the Avon level. While that’s not flattering to Les Lions D’Arthes, it also doesn’t mean this isn’t a pleasant fragrance: it is, it just doesn’t strike me as being something terribly different in the world of perfumery.
