Pros & Cons

  • This one's a legendary cheapie, offering niche-level comfort at a high-street price.
  • Eau des Baux is the more complete and interesting composition of the two that sells for a heck of a lot less money.
  • A beautiful and inexpensive offering from L'Occitane. Gorgeous mix of cypress, incense, tobacco, sweet tonka and vanilla.
  • Eau des Baux goes on with a spicy pink pepper and cardamom tandem... it smells incredible.
  • A beautiful and inexpensive offering... Gorgeous mix of cypress, incense, tobacco, sweet tonka and vanilla.
  • Fantastic smokey spiced vanilla. One of the best smelling frags I own.
  • though its longevity causes a bit of mither.
  • The opening is very 'in your face', especially when sprayed on the neck.
  • Just wish it lasted a bit longer.
