Sample reviews:

L'Air du Desert Marocain (Tauer Perfumes): Wear this fragrance and feel the cloudless sky rush far away above you.
Apres l'Ondee (Guerlain): The advantages of working with a clean sheet of paper are priceless.. The discreet hint of earthly pleasure is what makes Apres o'Ondee smile through its tears.
Calyx (Prescriptives)  'guava rose' : can't remember another green fragrance so friendly
cK One (Calvin Klein): the frozen morning of a day full of promise
Diorella (Dior): "Vietnamese beef salad"
Dune (Dior): contender for Bleakest Beauty in all of perfumery
Eau de Guelain (Guelain)'citrus verbena' to citrus what the mandolin, with its doubled-up strings, is to a guitar
Envy (Gucci) : seraphic and suburban, complete with the sort of suppressed anger that such a creature would feel at being reincarneated as a florist in eastern New Jersey.
No. 5 parfum (Chanel): No. 5 is a Brancusi.
Rush (Gucci): this creature may be from outer space, but its blood is warm.
Le Troisieme Homme (Caron): how many men can pull of deliberate prettiness?
White Linen (Estee Lauder) aldehydic floral: the whole thing is comfortable & well lit.. Thomas Pychon describing the smell of breakfast floating over WWII-era London as 'a spell against falling objects."
