12 Eau D'Epices Tauer Perfumes for women and men

With so many positive reviews on this, I had high expectations of warm exotic spices. But all I ended up with was a nasty concoction that smelled a lot like Desitin daiper rash cream. Not a fan of this one.

If L'air du desert marocain is a whisper, then Eau d'Epices has the volume turned up. There is the same smoldering spiciness. The cinnamon and woody notes mingle, quite dry. It has a short projection and surrounds me like a powdery cloud. While CARON - Parfum Sacre is colder, this one is deeper. Also while Parfum Sacre is somewhat chalky - for lack of a better word - Eau d'Epices is more medicinal. I faintly detect a gooey honey note in there, which also was in Orange Star. One can classify this as a Tauer, where certain Tauer notes come through.
Orange Star would be for the Summer, what Eau d'Epices is for the Winter.

As I have just received my sample discovery pack yesterday, I tried this one first.I have to say, these fragrances are really quite unique, and I haven't really experienced anything quite like them! This is not at all overpowering, it's quite soft on me. I get more of the spices, but couldn't really detect orange. I will have to test each one, a day at at a time,to decide which will be the one that I firmly love. I am testing no.2 today L'Air Du Desert Marocain, so will try to review that later. I do feel, with these perfumes, you do have to wear them all day to really get the feel of them. I think they are really well thought out, and he has thought a lot about the special blends. I would add, if you like spicy fragrances, do try a sample of this one, it is very pleasant, and to my way of thinking, not at all overpowering.

I love this .... LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS !!!! Have I been given a different sample - it is certainly labelled correctly but from what everyone is saying I must be smelling something different! It is deeply oriental - slightly spicy slightly jasminey slightly mandariney - lots of irisy!!! The depth to this perfume is amazing on my skin I can smell flowers and slight spices an earthiness that is surreal - much like an impressionist painting and it puts me in mind of Monet, Manet, Pissaro, Degas!

I find this perfume sublime - it is soft but highly projected - sweet but not cloying - spicy in a subdued way. I really think I have found my new signature - this makes me so happy all I have been doing for hours is sniffing my wrists - ohhhh and the longevity of this perfume .... hours later and it is still evolving and changing and making me want more!

The silage is big but soft at the same time - and it lingers .... oh, how it lingers - I had an appointment and came back home a few hours later and all I could smell was this wonderful silage wafting my home! I guess if you want to compete in a 'I can out-smell you competition' this is most definitely the one to wear. It develops very much like those Arabian attars taking on character over time growing and changing! I can smell this surrounding me like a warm blanket bathing me in love and affection.

In my opinion beautifully made and crafted - Andy is a genius ... a perfume genius! Expensive yes, but as with some of Andy's other creations - a little goes a long way!

10/10 for me!

This one is awful! I could only bare it for two minutes before I had to scrub it off. Buy some cheap disinfectant and douse yourself in that, same smell, much more affordable ;0)

I'm not an expert, but the main note I got from this from the beginning to the end is leather. The spices are there somewhere and after some indecision they push forward their tiny heads. I smell above all rosemary.

As for the clove, I know and love cloves, but I didn't notice any here.

While it seems original and interesting, I don't know in what situation I would like to smell like a new leather briefcase.

For a Tauer perfume, a complete let-down. His others that I have tried are superb, but I don't know what he thought he was doing getting this concoction together. Spicy, yes, but in some weird blend with no smoothness or harmony. I found this to be a mess. Sorry.

I didn't think I liked this when I first tried it. I got such a blast of 'spice cabinet' that I couldn't smell anything else and while that's a fine scent while baking, it's a bit sharp for wearing. It settled down fairly quickly though and while it retained some spice, the underglow started to brighten. It's a warm and lovely scent, not too floral, not too citrus-y, not food-like, despite the spice/tonka, which is a plus for me. My only regret is that I found it in late February, so soon it will have to be put away until fall. I must say though, out of the six Tauers I have tried so far, (#'s 1, 6, 8, 9, 10 and 12), the only one I wouldn't wear is #8 Rose Chypree (too sweet for me), so maybe I am Tauer-addicted. I was very surprised at the number of negative votes above.

The emotions that I felt with Eau d'Epices was a great surprise. Although I had often heard of Eau d'Epices, I never imagined that it would change my route and my perception of what the Middle East is: Eau d 'Epices is a trip to the East that I had never seen before. It is a window to the blue sea in the middle of a desert. Two feelings merge, on one hand the feeling of permanence and on the other an open space to new sensations.

apple pie with a lot of cinnamom and vanilla ice- cream, reminde me all aboout eve , and in some way also ther last one of dior cruise collection

I ran away from my sample...I ve tried to wash it off...it still lingers...sorry but that mixture of spices are a NO go for me..I guess it is the mustiness of clove and labdanum together..I ve hoped for another masterpiece as the great Desert Marocain, but that one really kills me..

Unfortunately, it starts out musty on me and does not improve with time. I believe it is the way the spices and incense are put together and then the iris makes it even more head ache inducing. It just smells like my sample just is terribly bad and old.

So, I'll be very curious to see how this one is received, because I like it (and haven't liked much else from this house). For once I am pleasantly surprised.

This opens as is- so if you like dry spice notes you'll certainly like this. What I'm loving best is the middle phase, which is a warm floral with a delicate kick. The incense works well here, and keeps the other notes from getting too loud. I can't recommend sticking your nose against your wrist, however, because you'll get a strong blast of cardboard. This works best as a subtle halo about your person (so use sparingly)

I'd say this is different than most of his creations, becaues it seems less harsh to me. I feel like Andy was in his happy space when he put this one together.

If I were to buy a Tauer this would be it

I find cardamom and clove absolutely stunning in this fragrance, they are in the top, and fade with development, but this first part makes me smile.

The fragrance is quite difficult for me to wear, the combination of orange flower and balmy, earthy nuances are too intense and heavy for me to wear, but it's interesting, and I like smelling it.
