    Larmes du Desert opens with dry, spiced incense over wood. As it develops, benzoin takes over with its subtle vanilla nuances. Eventually, the scent settles, maintaining a balsamic base with a touch of sweet benzoin. The incense is soft and well-integrated, avoiding that overly liturgical feel found in other perfumes. Performance is moderate: it lasts a decent amount of time but stays low-key. I’ve tried it twice; the first time it was barely noticeable, though with more applications and less cold, it improves slightly. It lacks power, so I see it as a men’s fragrance for 50-75°F (15-25°C), ideal for spring or autumn. I like the scent and it’s well-made, though there are other incense perfumes I love more. It’s pleasant, but with more projection it would have been an easy buy at its price. Since it’s so soft, I’ll probably look for something else.

    Larmes du Desert starts with dry, spiced incense over wood. Then, benzoin gradually gains strength with its faint yet clear vanilla nuances. As it dries down, it smells almost the same as at the start, adding that balsamic and sweet touch of benzoin. The incense is soft and well-blended, without giving that overly religious vibe found in other scents. Average performance: it lasts hours but stays low-profile. I’ve used it twice; the first time it was nearly inaudible, though with more sprays and less cold it improves a bit. It lacks power. I see it as a men’s fragrance for 50-75°F (15-25°C), perfect for spring or autumn. I like the smell and it’s well-crafted, though there are other incense fragrances I prefer. It’s agreeable, but with more presence it would have been an easy purchase at its price. Since it’s so subtle, I’ll probably search for something else.

    A first-rate woody oriental fragrance. Its liturgical incense is of incredible quality. Although it dominates the composition, the result is an exotic, luxurious perfume. Perfect for men who know how to wear it with moderation.
