Aoud M. Micallef for men

The contact with this scent was one of the most traumatic olfactory experiences of my life - on my skin it simply develops like some sweety, intense cat urine in their mating season. Horrible, simply horrible.

I have to agree with the prior review - this lovely smelling fragrance is simply too expensive to be so short-lived on the skin. I used to buy this from Luckyscent.com when it was well under $200 (IIRC, it was $110), but now it's just a ripoff.

Yes, the composition is very nice and features a lovely aoud note alongside cinnamon, rose, honey and woody oils. However, having to reapply every two hours is ridiculous. I think Madame Micallef is having a joke on our expense. I certainly won't be trying any other of her fragrances if this is any indication of their quality.

Get some Montale aouds if you want good value for your money.

WEll, I finally got the M.Micallef Homme (Aoud) and was in heaven, until about two hours went by...well, really sooner than that...It is the best smelling aoud fragrance I have ever encountered...and all that know me realize that is saying something since I have about 12 Montale Aouds and swear by them...the problem is, as others have said about most aMicallef's...they simply don't last very long at all..but damn, just over an hour and I'm reapplying all over the place...very dissapointing es[pecially since it costs much more than Monutales...what to do? I wonder if you can get the larger sizes at a better price from the maison in Paris? Or do they ship to the U.S./ I'm really bummed, but cannot afford 225. ever other month which is what it will wind up costing me at this rate (after 3 weeks the bottle is half empty and it's 100 ml.)
