One Sentence Perfume Review: Douce Amére, Serge Lutens















Anisette toast and heavy cream are delightful, but they're best consumed in small quantities at long intervals.


Notes per Now Smell This: Cinnamon, artemisia absinthium, anise, lily, jasmine, tiare flower, tagette, cedar, and musk.

    Well, it is delightful, on first acquaintance--like the first bite of a delicious dessert. But by the time the late drydown appeared, I was saying, "Enough already!"
