Pros & Cons
- ✅ Endlessly interesting. There’s such a striking tension between the woods and soft stewed spicy plum.
- ✅ Seductive.
- ✅ I can't get enough of this scent, so yummy......
- ✅ Plum and spice and everything nice. ;)
- ✅ This perfume is glorious. An absolutely genius blend of warm spices, animalic musks, stone fruit and beautifully blended florals on the backdrop of cedar with zero possibility of the blend becoming pointed and dry.
- ❌ I am so disappointed because I thought I would love this fragrance, but there is something in this that gives off a B.O smell that will not go away.
- ❌ I wanted to love this based on the notes but it just doesn't work for me. It dries down to a golden amber that feels matronly.
- ❌ Not for me. Not a fan of the clove and cumin notes in the opening, which smell vintage and dusty.
- ❌ I blind bought Féminité du Bois after hearing it described as mysterious, seductive, and the ultimate “femme fatale” scent. Unfortunately, my reaction was immediate disappointment. The first time I smelled it, I honestly found it horrible.
