There’re currently two scents in the line, and I’ve only had a chance to smell Lady Vengeance (a sensual rose) which instantly fascinated me.

The scent is my favorite of the line for its complex character and fulfilling on the promise of exclusivity. The patchouli here is soaked in caramelized jasmine, cardamom, and a perhaps a hint of milky sandalwood. Isvaraya reminds me of another Kurkdjian’s creation, MDCI #3, perhaps a bit watered down and with less presence. Exclusivity rank – 9 out of 10. [...]

Ina, you are welcome to share the oil tycoon that L and I are going to find. I am sure that a) he’d have enough $$$ to keep three ladies happy and b) will think that the more the merrier

March, I’d gladly take #3 as a present but, like you, I need a sugar daddy.

Tom, I sort of have to agree with you. If I buy perfume, I’m paying for the juice, not the bottle. I adore #3 and would definitely buy the scent had the bottle not been so pricey.
