Labdanum
L'Occitane

I'm really surprised at the views on Labdanum. I thought it was light and pleasantly spicy. Not that sweet at all. My only negative would be that it's longevity is appalling. Only lasts an hour or so on me.

A pleasant scent. It moves smoothly from Citrus/Spice, to Labdanum, to Vanilla.

On the whole it is more "Sweet" than "Warm".

Considered as a feminine it is a little more spicy and darker than many vanilla based fragrances at this price point.

Considered as a masculin it is possibly overly sweet, especially in the mid-notes.

Unfortunately on me l'occitane frags are not good. After a while they all evolve into a sweet soapy caramel. Unfortunately because the opening of this Labdanum was so good, spicy and original.

Very, very sweet, with some spices and lots of vanilla and amber. Quite heavy and dense. Not my style.
