    I bought this blind hoping that it would smell like Dune because of similar notes. This one is not as dry as Dune and has a prominent vanilla note. It is also sweeter. It stays close to the skin.
    It is unisex, fresh and woodsy.

    I really love some male fragrances from Mont Blanc, moreover I sometimes love my husband’s perfumes so much i get myself thinking “I wish they did a female version of this”. usually that’s not what happens, the female versions are completely different and relate close to nothing to the their male counterparts. So I bought a sample of this and then I felt like they did, in this perfume, the magic I have been waiting for: turned a male perfume slightly to the female side. Certainly it will not fit everyone, but they kept the masculine character just on point, I really like it and will definitely buy it.

    So wonderful on my skin. I feel sexy, compelling, and powerful when I wear this.
    Its almost masculine. Its what I would want to wear when competing with the boy’s club in CEO business meetings. It would help me show my dominance in a setting where I could use any advantage that I could get.
    In that same respect, I would wear it to divorce proceedings with lawyers present. It would scream no nonsense and take no prisoners but without being crazy loud.

    The opening was strong and sharp orange/black pepper combo. So spicy that I actually had to check the name of the perfume on my sample to make sure I really have a female version. It seemed totally masculine, so my attention was catched immediately.
    The drydown milds the scent into sweet (but not sickly) vanilla, underlined with woodsy notes and a little sign of florals.
    It smells clean/fresh, slisghtly sweeter, white, but with some spiciness to it. In my opinion perfect for spring for everyday every night use. Could be unisex. Safe for office work.
    I noticed some people said here it’s not feminime. To me it is. As I believe there are also women who like to stand out of the crowd and who know how to wear something that is far from girly.

    Another lesson learned: Blind buys are great fun with a good deal and good research, but don’t blind buy a perfume you liked as a kid, because your tastes have probably changed. This reminds me of the smell of Abercrombie and Fitch pumped out into the hallways of the mall when I was wearing flared jeans and baby doll tops. It definitely runs to the masculine side of things, but in the cheap teenager first cologne way. I’m not sure I will ever find a way to wear this because it smells so dated. Maybe I’ll keep it a few decades until that type of fragrance becomes a classic, hahaha.
    EDIT: okay, in fairness, I owe this perfume a bit of an apology. It was unseasonably warm today and I spritzed a bit on my arm and the fragrance is not nearly so harsh and masculine as it was before. I will keep it in rotation as the weather warms up and hope that maybe it just needs the warm seasons to really come alive.
    EDIT 2: yeah, no, on me this is crappy cheap 90’s boy smell.

    On me it is completely different from Dune, dry and short lasting without any sweetness.Dune is one of my favorite scents, and on my skin it is sweet (90s sweet, very different from nowadays), comfortable, sophisticated, dreamy and cozy. My mother and I loved Dune (and this is quite difficult to happen, since we have opposite tastes in perfumes) and almost fought over a bottle of it. A beloved, comfort perfume, a classic.
    As per Presence it was a huge disappointment, no sweetness,a strange clash of notes without any unifying direction, lasted for 2 hours with light sillage, the worst perfume by Michel Almairac on my skin.

    when i looked at the notes here i talked to myself,”this must smell like Dior Dune”
    and i was right, haha
    this has the DNA like Dune
    but this one doesn’t smell so dry and woody like Dune
    much softer and feminine because of the citrusy smell
    and lasting power is much poorer than Dune
    could only last about 4 minuts on my skin
    anyway, only share like 50% similarities with Dune
    in all, it’s a woody scent, lovely and easy to wear
    more wearable than Dune for sure

    “Presence d’un femme” is a little aromatic, a little spicy, firmly woody, tenderly flowery, sweet-like vanilla and skin-like patchouli.
    The perfume opens with very apparent mandarine, but it is not sharp, or zesty, or bitter. Mandarin joined with pepper has a mild aromatic-spicy effect similar to the smell of “dried arancini” (Mediterranean organic sweets made of orange skin sun-dried in sugar, which taste aromatic and peppery).
    Nor orchid, or cyclamen are expressively flowery – flowers tame the top concoction, preventing top to become piercing, and bringing peppered mandarine back from spicy to mildly aromatic, before the other big concoction enters the stage: woods and vanilla.
    I really can’t smell all three woody notes (rosewood, mahogany and sandalwood) – it is just rounded, firm woody complex on me. And then again – it is instantly followed by vanilla, making it rounder and milder. The vanilla-woods combo in base presents powdery-dusty effect, mildly sweet and freshened by remains of peppery-aromatic top. Sometimes I get almond/nutty-like vibe (I guess that’s woody-vanilla expression) in this stage of development.
    And there is patchouli… I am very sensitive and somehow particular to patchouli iterations (they can thrill me and they can disgust me, I still don’t get the pattern, except that this in some cases related to the warm weather). Patchouli is very discrete here – I sense it in the base only as some “warm-skin” presence, but far from anything skanky or noticable enough to provoke reaction.
    There is, in fact, some dissonant “maleish” accord present, partly in the peppery-citrus opening, and mostly in woody-vanilla dry down, which works as a subtle contrast to the natural sweetnes of flowers and vanilla. But, it is not dominant at all, and it likes to play “hide and seek”. It is like you put on a lovers yesterday’s shirt with the remains of his perfume, but you are wearing your own very feminine perfume, and it is dominant. I find that interesting and slightly tempting but, above all, not overwhelming.
    I really don’t get this “totally masculine” feedbacks on Presence – in my opinion, this slightly masculine accord is the thing that keeps this fragrance away from beeing just another clichè perfume created for oriental-woody-vanilla lovers.
    Finally, about that “masculinity”-issue that flooded the reviews below, let’s put it this way: the man that I sleep with – wearing Presence d’un femme?
    Well… No.
    Nope. Can’t imagine that. No way. Sorry.
    Except – if I leave it on him.
    As my presence.
    Overall, Presence isn’t the best ever, or earth moving fragrance – BUT – it is far from dull, stereotypical or “unproblematic” scents. Also, it is very pleasant and unintrusive, and for daily rotation it has quite enough qualities to be taken into account for FB, or at least for serious testing.
    * like (“ok one”)
    * sillage: moderate (arms lenght)
    * longevity: moderate (up to 6 hours)
    * discontinued (but still available at affordable prices).

    This is definitely on the masculine side. However I am totally in love with it. It starts off crisp and fresh and then becomes something totally different with it’s warmth and coziness. Love it.

    I smelled this for the first time today. My friend used it to freshen an outdoor space and it was the spiciness that captivated me. It was also crisp, so I tried it on (even though she used it to freshen the air) and I fell in love. It started out crisp and spicy and settled into something warm and cozy by the end of the day. It lasted all day and I was outdoors most of the time. It never was overwhelming or suffocating. I kept smelling myself because it was such a beautiful smell. It was something like no perfume I’ve ever owned. It was feminine, but with a touch of masculinity. I have to order this now.

    The most masculine smelling perfume I’ve ever tested to this date that is advertised as being a perfume for women. I can smell mandarin orange, pepper and I think wood (though I’m not sure because I’m not very familiar with woody notes – but it’s a dry and dusty smell that stays during the whole time). Orchid, vanilla – no idea, my nose couldn’t locate them. Longevity – sorry, poor, it stays on my wrist 30 mins max, I believe this is because it’s and EDT. Sillage – nonexistent. I wouldn’t buy this fragrance myself, but I got it as a gift so I will use it up though it lacks distinction. It’s like a watercolor painting – it’s there, but it’s so sparse and thin, like a ghost of a proper perfume.

    Reminds me sweet minds.Love this.Absolutely masterpiece.

    Mmmm. Présence d’un(e)…freshly showered bloke.
    Oddly, up close I get some berries and sweetness, yet my aura smells distinctly masculine. Really quite nice, I should say, but more reminiscent of a clean fella on his way to work than une femme.
    I think Présence might have been an experiment by Montblanc, aka “What do women most like the smell of? Nice, clean, well-dressed men. By Jove, I think we’ve got it!”
    I tried to get my mind around it being wearable by women too, but after a few hours I got fed up of the olfactory dissonance. I will try it on my man…

    As much as love this scent (I even got praises), as much as I’m hesitant to buy/wear it again, because it’s obvious that people categorize it more under masculine scents
    It is very pleasant scent (specially in winter)
    and I’m keen to smell the empty bottle from time to time 🙂

    First of all, i have to say that i got this fragrance from a friend, my female boss, because although it’s a nice fragrance, the prices here in Brazil are OVER THE TOP, so wouldn’t be worth it.
    Anyway, the review:
    The main accords of this scent, as described above are woody, balsamic, sweet, powdery, fresh spicy and patchouli. Not for me. I would describe this, in order of importance as Woody, Fresh Spicy and Powdery.
    I don’t get the balsamic side, or even the patchouli (as i’m used to in other scents).
    Presence D’Une Femme is a wonderful simplistic scent. Sexy and classy without making any effort. Whenever i use it, i feel powerful without trying, like, paraphrasing Beyoncé, “i woke up like this”.
    Downside (at least on my skin) is the poor longevity and projection.
    Office friendly, safe for dates and gifts.
    (For those of you who knows Brazilian brands, it reminds me a little of the original Glamour, without the citric accord – or a least not that pronounced).

    I love this fragrance!! It smell amazingly refreshing, not too powerful but definitely memorable. This one is particularly special and personal to me.

    i love this one! there is no perfume which resemles to this one..very woody,unique and distinctive! i would definetely purchase it if its lasting power was stronger!

    This is nice and a bit different to the usual commercial fragrances. A lovely citrus wood combo. This would be nice to wear on a summer evening. It would be perfect for wearing in the office. Feminine but to be respected. As you would expect the orange is very evident from the word go. It adds a freshness and sweetness to the orchid and wood notes. I love the orange, orchid, patch, sandalwood combo unfortunately with the pepper becoming more and more evident on the dry down. Tbh I think all the pepper towards the end is too much and prevents it becoming a love for me. I dont find it very masculine at all. Moderate sillage and longevity.

  19. :

    5 out of 5

    Very nice but very masculine on me…androgynous at best.
    I’m not getting any pepper at all which is a shame since I love peppery notes. I can’t quite place what makes it so masculine to me. Maybe the orange with rosewood? I think I might give this one to my hubs. It will likely smell much nicer on him.
    Not a bad scent at all – just not as feminine a fragrance as I usually enjoy. 😉

  20. :

    4 out of 5

    not my cup of tea 🙁 the pepper in the top notes is very strong and chemical… it isn´t a bad composition, but it didn´t work together. for me it´s a very simple and absolutely unimpressive scent, very masculine, but nothing special – it´s like a simple cheap man´s perfume. Probably it would be better with some warm and sweet accord there (vanilla, amber?).

    Ahhh… tha’ Paradox of Presence… a Presence revealed thru an androgynous tapestry of spicy/warm fragrance notes. So many folks getting hung on whether it’s masculine or feminine/male or female/blahblah… just getover your sweetself & enjoy tha’ ride. Lotta curves w/ this ride, presenting a playful drydown that travels from good2better w/ excellent sillage/longevity. But one needs 2 respect one’s unique individual chemistry… one of the cool traits of an excellent juice is its capacity for smelling different on different folks. Masculine, or feminine?… Yes! For it is a classique of both animals, & on some will be masculine w/ a feminine touch, & on some, feminine w/ a masculine touch. That’s a goodthing… we’re actually created tha’ same way… & yet…UNIQUE, ladies & gentlemen. But a deeper & more interesting paradox emerges… this one is Strong&Subtle. The wonderful scents of orchid, manderin, pepper, sandalwood, vanilla, patchouli, & the others, display suble fairness of ‘presence’, without knockin’ you down, like commercial scents these days. For instance, when you cook, you don’t want the ingredient 2 stand out, like, man… that’s CURRY… you want it 2 blend into a design that cues you into, hmmm, nice taste, smooth flavour. Scents should do tha’ same. I don’t care 2 hear, “isn’t that vanilla?” Perish tha’ thought, though many of today’s lackluster/losers are like that. You just want it 2 subtlely intice, the different notes, in harmony w/ each other. And remember, you DON’T want folks 2 SMELL you , before they SEE you; w/ a keeper juice, it should be a ‘less is more’ dynamic, if it has decent sillage/longevity. Enjoy the Paradox of Presence: Strong but subtle, playful but serious, aloof but intense… it may reflect your own Presence… hope so, for tha’ sake of Surprise, Dearie ~

    This is one of my power fragrances. When I go to the office and mean business, this is what I wear. Not too girly, just a tinge masculine and absolutely lovely; the perfect fragrance to go with a power suit.

    I’ve worn this in the past being only “sweet” 19 (I’m 28 now) and felt so grown up 🙂 It was a gift of my mom. She herself received it as a gift but wasn’t really into it so lucky me!
    I’ve ordered it again a few days ago and it finally arrived. This scent is “me”. It’s soft and classy but edgy and fun at the same time. The perfect combination of feminine and masculine notes: peppery, woody, patch and a little flowers and fruit. Fresh and at the same time warm. I’m seeing a scheme here with my taste: I also love Chance, Dune… For me they also have these characteristics.
    I’ve had Lovely by SJP as my signature for a very long time but from now on this will be it. I’m so happy to have this in my collection again and hope that they won’t discon’ it anytime soon! Oh and I hope my boyfriend likes it! 😀

    Beautiful present from sweet veda! I love it. Was always imagining it similar with Roma by Laura Biagiotti and yes, they are – similar. Yet old formula of Roma is more heavy and substantional, while Présence d’une is more soapy-lightly-spiced more woody-orchids fragrance. I dont have any hint on masculine frag, as some reviewers have mentioned – I guess each person’s chemistry sticks to each own result from the notes.
    On me this fragrance is also like a sister of Sonia Rykiel(pink jumper),mandarines with green-tree scent, cheerful, open-minded, its not over popular, so at least while wearing,you will feel positively different. I can see myself addicted to this one.

  27. :

    My mother owns this one, and I have to say it does smell like a male fragrance (as corny as it may sound); this one strongly reminds me of Animale Animale For Men, which I love and have in my collection; the only issues I’ve found are both sillage and longevity. That said, I think this scent is really pleasant and soothing.
    Overall score: 7-7.5 (It’d be 9 if sillage and longevity were much stronger)

  28. :

    mandarino e vaniglia le prime note (o arancia dolce) che si fondono immediatamente su sentori di pepe. l’accordo evolve poi sulle note di cuore legnose di sandalo e mogano, per finire su patchouli dolce. benchè la persistenza sia molto buona, non si tratta di un profumo invadente: rimane lieve sulla pelle. mi pare più qualcosa associabile ad una donna gentile, quasi androgina. l’insieme è assai notevole.

  29. :

    5 out of 5

    Présence d’une femme is not nearly as “masculine” as many of these reviews would have one think. Yes, it is not a sweet or flowery scent. Woody with a touch of mandarin and a feeling of cinnamon to me. A very nice woody, by the way. This is a sophisticated fragrance, however, I wore it to bed last night, and the experience was so pleasant! I could see a certain type of man wearing this, but he would have to have a good bit of savoir faire. Luckily my man does, so he wears this on occasion, and I love it on him, too!

  30. :

    5 out of 5

    I wanted to test it today. It could be an unisex fragrance, it’s easy to wear and very pleasant. 5 stars for the longevity!

  31. :

    5 out of 5

    Worn it today. The first 3 hours are VERY unpleasant. Too much pepper and mandarin. I felt like a male teenager wearing dad’s cologne to a teen party.
    But the drydown… very woodsy. Rosewood, sandalwood and mahogany with some patchouli. It’s a pity I have to stand such an unpleasant opening to get to the absolutely lovely drydown.
    It’s not THAT feminine, if you consider the overwhelming sugar-honey-caramelized hype that has taken fragrance nowadays. But, alas, it wouln’t be consider very feminine in 2002 either. Has some tamed 80’s vibe.

    Everybody is different and is hard to recommend perfume-fragrance .
    I wear it for years and have whole collection of Mont Blanc for women .
    This one for my nose is …..a field of camomile and I love it . In my 50 , I am getting
    complemnts from young man on my scent . Really 🙂
    Very feminine , but with a floral-wood unique statement .
    It is not everyday scent to wear because of its elegance in the whole bouquet .

  35. :

    5 out of 5

    It does have a masculine edge, but becomes very soft and wearable within a few minutes. Montblanc scents strike me as really unique, actually. A scent with a bit of bite to it, but not so that that it’s hard to wear.
    Edit – This, in moderate doses really is unique and I like how ‘femme’ does not mean too floral or too sugary (in that sense a bit like D&G’s Red Cap, though they smell different).
    I hope it’s not discontinued, though it does seem like it’s a lesser known fragrance, so that’s entirely possible.

    This fragrance is my signature scent for years. It is a very nice vanilla mandarin scent, warm and sweet but not overwhelmingly sweet. I always get compliments when I am wearing it. I really recommend to try it.

  38. :

    I bought this during last spring and I’m still afraid to wear this in public cause to my nose it really smells like men’s cologne honestly… I kinda like the smell but I guess I just need to try wearing it more and maybe get to like it more.

  39. :

    4 out of 5

    I remember liking it a lot at first sniff at the store, and then I brought the scented card to a friend of mine for her to smell, and she said it was a little masculine to her… Then I realized that, yes, probably she was right…but then I would be biased. So I surrendered myself to my first impression and ordered it and now I enjoy this smell! This is a daring smell at the start, indeed, but with a trully feminine heart…

  40. :

    4 out of 5

    I am totally in love with this perfume! It’s my 3rd bottle, something like must-have for me and I’m still never disappointed with it. It develops different on me depending on weather and time of the day. I love the woody note that stays on me even after having shower.

  41. :

    5 out of 5

    I can see why some will say this has a masculine twist. I also think that this can be worn by men very well. It’s a soft, sweet oriental fragrance, I cannot tell the notes apart on this one, everything is blended very nicely. On my skin none of the notes dominates over the other.
    On me it is not really woody, it’s also not floral, but it’s also not very vanilla… however it is a lovely, gentle, soft & sweet mixture of notes creating a feeling of sensuality.
    I am very curious about the Intense version of this, I hope I can find it some day!

  42. :

    After first spray i thought i mixed my samples – it was totally masculine. On me it’s balmy, extremely woody and strong patchouli. After 30 min. i got some tiny cloud of sweetness. It’s nice, mysterious but not really my taste.

  43. :

    4 out of 5

    This is utterly gorgeous.
    I went to a local perfume shop and asked for something woody, spicy–nothing gourmand or little girl sweet, nothing with white florals. She didn’t even need to think a moment, and pulled out Présence d’une femme. Wow, it was perfect, exactly what I’ve been looking for.
    My skin *loves* woody and spicy, and this really works for me. It’s elegant and yes, a little masculine, but still shades into the feminine. I see it’s classed as Oriental Vanilla, but it doesn’t work that way for me–it’s woody aromatic.
    For me, it’s warm, sexy, alive, just barely sweet (which I like) and not overpoweringly strong (though I don’t go overboard with it). This might possibly be my favorite perfume. I’d wear it every day, but I like switching around a bit too much. Still, I pull it into rotation very often. Today is a day for it.
    If you like something that’s not candy-sweet or vanilla-heavy, give this a try. I definitely recommend sampling before buying, because I think it’s a scent you either love or hate. Me, I love it.

    What a scent !
    Pepper
    Orchid
    Woods
    Patch.
    Vanilla
    Ok – to a little maleish opening
    but it softens to a deep orchid,
    vanilla, woody and to me feminine scent !
    Really beautiful to wear.
    I´ll wear it a lot til spring with its lighter fumes serch for attention.!
    This is another blindbuy, based on Fragrantica community reviews…
    Thank You !
    When I checked the online store for a back up…gone

    So interesting to me that many comments here describe this scent as masculine or unisex!
    I get the complete opposite response when I wear it.
    And on me, it turns heads, strangers stop me in the street to compliment my scent (men and women) , men approach me closely to whisper how lovely and feminine i smell. My loved ones have been nuts about it.
    A gay male friend of mine with a good nose and impeccable taste, described it as “the scent of simply clean, warm, feminine skin”.
    I adore it, it’s the only fragrance I’m comfortable with any time of the day no matter what the situation or mood, that’s just ME.
    And I’m a bit oversensitive to perfume especially early in the morning.
    Heartbroken that it seems entirely unavailable since a long time, and would be so gratefull for ANY tip on where I can find it now!
    I suspect it’s been taken out of production, the last time I got a bottle, my friend found it at the airport in Mexico and had people running between shops and storages to dig up a single bottle.
    That’s true friendship 🙂

    Nice but too masculine for me. I gave it to my husband. It smells better on him.

    I think this one is Uni-sex. Fresh woodsy notes blended with patchouli, sandalwood and pepper. Not modern sugarsweet. In topnote I can’t smell Vanilla, but in basenote I can. Great for every-day-use for both women and men. On my skin the woodsy notes turn male’ish. They are too dominant for me.
    Denna kallar jag Uni-sex. Fräscha träiga noter i toppnoten, fint blandad med Patchouli, Sandelträ och peppar. Inte modern sockersöt. I toppnoten kan jag inte känna någon Vaniljton men i basnoten så kan jag det. Härlig varje-dag-doft för både henne och honom.
    På min slår de träiga noterna över i manligt. De är för dominanta för min hudtyp.

    Had this few years ago but still remember the smell.
    Can’t compare Presence to any other fragrance I know.
    The base of Presence is the best part, it is woody, warm with a hint of vanilla.
    I don’t find it to be masculine at all.
    I see in it a confident and elegant 100% woman.

    I used this 5 or 6 years ago. I bought it from duty-free shop in airport, and now I can’t find it in the shops around me. The fragrance is very long-lasting and classy. It smells really elegant. I loved it, if I found it again, dont think even a minute to buy again.
    Ps: Its bottle is gorgeous.

    This was a blind buy – and a good one. I do find it a little masculine but layered with L by Lolita Lempicka (which I can find a little too sweet at times) it’s perfect, especially around Christmas time.

    This is one of my favorite fragrance, i can bath myself in it. So i’ll try to describe why i love it so much- it’s not very feminine, i imagine a woman sitting in front of you, she is wearin a suit, she is very self confident, she is a leader. This masterpiece is very longlasting,unisex and unique.

    To Dollycat: Carefully,this brand was founded just at the beginning of 20th century and is very well-known, but in certain ( elite) circles 😉 their pens, Jewellery, watches and accessories are all exclusive masterpieces and are very-very expensive. Cartier is a sister brand to this one. They just Launching their perfumes only since 2001, and there are already 12 of them( homme and femme).

    A very spicy oriental!. Not an ordinary smell, you will be addicted to it or absolutely hate it. I´m very much addicted to it. MontBlanc has excellent and expensive smelling scents. I have all 3 and i love them all the same. The brand is not very well known and appreciated but for the perfume lovers a quit hidden treasure. Worth every penny.

    Translating my comment below to help other people to know this jewel of perfumes:
    This perfume is for strong women, who lead teams, intelligent women, who are present, and it do not cease to be female.
    I think that’s why people give him the unisex category, but it’s not unisex, is very feminine, just not the kind delicate females, is for women …. floralzinho personality.

    Esse perfume é para mulheres fortes, que comandam equipes, mulheres inteligentes, que marcam presença, e nem por isso deixam de ser femininas.
    Acho que é por isso que as pessoas atribuem a ele a categoria unissex, mas it’s not unissex, é muito feminino, só que não é do tipo feminino delicado, floralzinho….é para mulher de personalidade.
    Femme…Presence D’Une Femme.

    Presence d’une femme is an androgynous type of scent.It could be easily unisex.Deep wood,patchouli and some coffee accords to my nose!Its masculinity gives a boost to a dymanic woman that is not afraid to show off her power.Woman rules in this.I am happy that this kind of perfumes do exist.We are overwhelmed by vanilla,”sexy” scents that do not show off anything!This perfume has personality and power.Dynamic,strict,amazing!Lasting power is really good.

    The dry-down process was an emotional roller coaster for me! I went from love to hate in a period of 30 minutes.
    The opening notes were gorgeous! I love the mandarin orange-pepper combo! It was very uplifting and fresh. The heart phase was less inspiring but still pleasant. I absolutely love orchid, but I felt the cyclamen detracted a little from the beauty of the mandarin/pepper/orchid blend.
    I don’t know what went wrong when I hit the base notes. I usually love all the notes listed, but the fragrance became extremely masculine on me…even to the point of inducing a headache. I kept smelling “cologne”. I am even surprised I had this experience, because many of my fragrances have a masculine edge to them, but this one was too much for me.
    It must be a matter of chemistry!

    What is wrong with me? I am SUCH a sucker for masculine/woodsy fragrances! Reminds me of D&G L’Amoureux; very bold, very sexy yet unconventional and sophisticated.
    Funny thing about this one: All I got from it was warm woods and a little pepper but when I asked my husband about it he said : “Hm, I don’t know, it’s a little too much vanilla for my taste.” How weird is that?
    It’s a great scent, surprisingly well executed and definitely something I’d consider purchasing. It has definite unisex qualities to it and the only REAL criticism I have is in regards to its name, which, in my opinion, is misleading.
    It’s a straight-forward, bold, “balls-y” fragrance that does not exude much femininity, but rather captivates the essence of a strong (-willed) woman.
    Good sillage, matches the personality of the scent – not too overpowering but definitely demanding attention.

    Lovely spicy/woodsy scent. Reminded me of my first boyfriends Fleur De Sante after shave that I liked. Nice with jeans and shirt.

    It certainly smells like a men’s fragrance, reminded me of Salvador Dali Homme, but after a few minutes was very good, a sweet wood

    it’s a classy fragrance, who starts a few masculine, woody, but after a while it’s becomes sweeter.
    I like a lot because you not see a lot of women using this perfum. So, this one is quite unique for me! 🙂

    This is both feminine and masculine. It is just right for those who like scents to be in the middle. It is careful not to reside either way and settles nicely all day. This is a new addition to my collection that will be cherished. You can’t go wrong with this even if you order without sampling.
    The bottle is really cool too and is round and flat, fits well into purses.

    It isn’t masculine. This its a nice woody fragrance for confident women, that likes sofhistication and nature at same time… that could be comfort drinking a dry liquor if they want, no matter if anybody dislikes.
    Cyclamen and orchid mixing with the woody notes, makes this fragrance just deligtful.

    This is a lovely, sort of “clear” fragrance on me – the notes balance nicely on my skin making a sensual, slightly spicy woody scent. My husband is pretty picky about scents – he doesn’t like many of the ones I constantly wear, but he does like this one. I only have a tiny vial sample – I suppose I’ll have to get a big bottle now … 🙂
