Trying out this:
>L’Eau d’Ambre Extrême - Eau de Parfum
>A trip into the opulence of the 1930s. The scent of luxurious furs, of an oriental breeze, waves of amber and gold spices. By Jean-Claude Ellena

Very ambery/spicy opening, pretty powerful and heavy. It does bring up images of the past yet it doesn't feel dated. Definitely for the fall/winter. It doesn't feel synthetic at all, and I don't get any of the powdery note I read on some description. Going to test longevity, but so far so good. Will definitely try wearing it in the office one of these days.

Just got this in the mail today. 10ml of the following:
>Mûre et Musc Extrême - Eau de Parfum
>With a key note of blackcurrant, the crisp blackberry flavour grows and flourishes.

>Premier Figuier - Eau de Toilette
>The scent of a fig tree on a summer's day in Provence. An enveloping freshness with milky woody notes.

>Histoire d'Orangers - Eau de Parfum
>A sunny diversion in the shade of the bitter orange trees.

>L’Eau d’Ambre Extrême - Eau de Parfum
>A trip into the opulence of the 1930s. The scent of luxurious furs, of an oriental breeze, waves of amber and gold spices.

>Passage d'Enfer - Eau de Toilette
A fragrance playing on the contrasting facets of incense; its dry and poignant freshness is rounded by the scent of white musk and lilies.

Tried out Mure et Musc, 20 minutes in and it's nice but unremarkable so far. Projection is not that strong. Passage d'Enfer on the other hand is really nice, I don't think I had tried incense-based frags before but I really like it. The author said it was inspired by some church, so now it makes me want to try out CdG Avignon even more. I'll keep you all posted.
