For me, it's sharp at first, vegetal, then transforms to a slightly sweet, warm spice. I've been wearing it all morning and it's now an almost powdery, still warm, mild sweetness. I could do this as a daily scent.

My daily wear for years and I never cease to delight in it. The initial strong resin and cedar calm down to dry, deep spice on the skin. Wearing this is like summoning the scent of a dry breeze through your sun-warmed hair wherever you go. I did knock over the bottle and break the neck, had to decant the remainder into an atomizer. Sniffing the empty bottle does not reveal the depth of the fragrance, this is one that has to be worn. I am fem, this is a great unisex imho.

This scent. I have worn many perfumes and none have gotten the compliments that this one has. When I wear it, I am constantly asked - what is that intoxicating scent? There are many great perfumes to choose from. L'Air du Desert Marocain is one that I come back to again and again.

After reading numerous accolades from perfume aficionados online, I ordered a sample of L'Air Du Desert Marocain Eau de Toilette Intense by Tauer Perfumes. Instantly, I grasped why it's hailed as a cult classic. It's an entrancing blend that projects just right — noticeable without being overpowering and boasts an impressive longevity of 8-10 hours on my skin. While bergamot isn't officially listed, occasional hints of it dance mysteriously within the scent's layers. Perfect for the chillier seasons, I've already secured a full bottle. Mysterious and captivating, it's the essence of fall and winter allure.

Has a harsh smell at first that is very off-putting. Once it settles, it really has a dominant ambergris and wood smell. Very strong and masculine.

If you've ever been a camp counselor you know this smell intimately: lush green trees outside your window and the sun warmed wood of the walls around you. It's simply beautiful.

Disappointed-- I got none of the warm beautiful spices I was hyped for but a repulsive chemical smell reminiscent of melted plastic. individual skin chem, etc etc. also, it "feels" wet, not dry. this is the last Tauer I'm going to try, idk something is telling me this brand and I ain't it.

Delicious fragrance! Wow! I Sweet, but not cloying with freshness as well. Perfect combination.

when something is good say so. my first full bottle and liking it. nobody smells like me at my place of work, nice scent for a gentleman who like himself. so superb and easy on the skin. hmmmmmm, the scent is lovely, will buy again, kudos to Andy Tauer, it was a blind buy but its worth every penny. look for positive reviews on this. its a good and easy scent for me.

my first full bottle and loving it. wow. the scent is superb. need to try the lonestar or the tauerville line. i am wowed. from where i am nobody is wearing such a scent. just me and me alone. there is something about the frag cant pinpoint but reacts well with my skin- dark. kudos to Andy.

A treasure. Dry desert air, spicy, sweet and full of amber & leather with a dry down of additional vanilla. Love this version but prefer the extrait more for performance and deeper richness. Still same great scent and more affordable than extrait but lighter.. Both equally good but for performance and scent go for Au Coeur Du Desert.

I was disappointed. This came off as feminine and fruity. I was hoping for a bit more spice pertaining to the coriander!

A no brainer fragrance for frankincense lovers. Resinous and spicy topped with petitgrain- but be mindful if you are sensitive to isoE & coumarins because it appears heavy in the base. I have to wear when I am far away from headache days but it is lovely, warm comforting rich scent . Parr’s well with a Puredistance “M” for leather. LdM is a fine combination of high quality naturals and aroma chemicals.

The first time I tried this I hated it. I tried it again when a friend gave me a 5ml bottle with a bunch of other perfume samples, and now I'm a bit obsessed with it and the way it changes on my skin over time.

This scent smells so wonderfully different. Not too light or too heavy. I know no one else around me is wearing it and I feel very lovely wearing this fragrance. Had to buy a FB so I could smell fabulously different in the presence of others. Got to be an individual but feel beautiful at the same time. Not a feminine scent yet I feel very feminine wearing this fragrance.

Don't let anyone tell you this is overtly masculine - I love this as much on myself as I love it on my husband. This is a beautiful, deep, warm and dry, suitable for anyone who likes spice, a little rose and a touch of incense, smoky without literal campfire smell.
By   - ITIL Problem Manager from Denver on 9/18/2020
This is a beautiful, inviting scent. It is as evocative of a Moroccan desert adventure as it is a warm and cozy night snuggled by the fireplace. What does it smell like? Like the dream of a sweet memory of a moment that has yet to be lived.

It takes you on a journey to the spice markets of the far east. Trust me, a little goes a long way. One spray will stay on all day. Seductive and Sensuous. A must buy!

It took me a long time to warm up to this scent, but I eventually did, and then decided to purchase the EDT and also the solid (directly from Tauer). Although I love the fragrance, the performance is terrible, and the atomizer isn’t much better; perhaps it’s flawed as it projects a small, inconsistent spray. What a disappointment...
