L`Eau Guerriere Parfumerie Generale for women and men

I do like it! Yes, it has a lot of aldehydes but it is also very green, a little peppery, I also feel olibanum (just a kind of slight wave) and ozonic notes - just like before the storm. Beautiful and long lasting (at least on my skin).

I get a very strong note of copal here. Copal is resin burned as incense in Central America--the word comes from a Mayan word for incense. It's not entirely clear which tree resins are used. Anyway, this fragrance transports me to a church in Guatemala, dark and fragrant with copal, the soft mutterings of prayers in Maya barely audible. There is a feel of cold stone, humid rainforest air, and clouds shrouding a purplish volcano. Ominous and evocative, very secretive, passion just below the serene surface. I love it.

Aldehydes and green/ herbaceous notes joined by frankincense, a subtle oud note and something else that smells much like resinous cannabis. Dry, woody and masculine in a very modern way. Maybe not groundbreaking but incredibly likeable and easy to wear. Together with Comme Des Garcons Standard, one of my favorite office fragrance of the past 5 years. While L'Eau Guerriere is surely not a sillage monster I get a reasonable projection and lasting power.

Rating: 7.5/10

Surprised !! When I smell it first time ... It smells my mothers handbag when I was a kid !!!! I'm now 53 year old ... and she's no more alive ... Of course I bought 2 bottles (limited edt) and so I get my mother scent on my hand .... So strange!!

Very odd fragrance. Spicy but a little too "fresh." Not unpleasant. Not something I'd seek out again, though.

I expected more incense from this and was disappointed! I have to say, I am an incense nut so the "olibanum" note had me at first glance and I thought this would be oily and resiny and dark. It is surprisingly light and very wearable as a day scent. Even though it was not what I was going for, it is still a great frag, opens with some soapiness, a bit of what smells like a very quiet salty musk and some metal. Not a watery ozone, but something that still smells ozone-y to me.

This is a cold scent, but soft and clean and fierce all at the same time. Nothing I would want to wear, but something that if I smelled it on a man it would make me take notice -- it is unusual and quietly intense.
