I got several fragrance samples through the Sephora Favorites sample packs. I haven’t even tried the majority of them yet because this one is so good. It’s spicy, cozy, and rich—without that typical gourmand base. I love that it’s unique but still subtle. My annoyingly picky husband approves, although he’s not as sold on the salty note as I am! Goes great with the limited edition Method Chai Santal body wash, BBW’s Bounty Hunter, JPG’s Divine, and Nest Cardamom Latte.

Disappointed
I received a sample of this and loved it. Very fresh and light scent but the longevity was amazing. Only took one spritz and I could smell it all day. I purchased a full size bottle and the longevity is not there. I have to use multiple spritzes only for it to fade within a few minutes. I’m very disappointed with this as I never purchase things like this for myself and it was kind of a splurge.

This is absolutely lovely. It gives Le Labo Santal, but a cleaner version. I notice it doesn’t last very long on me, but I believe that is due to the lack of phthalates, so I am good with this! May get a rollerball or travel size for my purse to keep smelling this lovely scent all day long.

This smells like a cozy, clean woodsy hug. It’s warm, soft, and not overpowering at all. I love it for everyday because it feels effortless and comforting without trying too hard. It doesn’t scream when you walk into a room, but people notice it when they’re close. If you’re into earthy, unisex scents that feel calm and chic, this one’s a go-to. This was received as a part of an educational promotion.

Year-round Favorite
I love this. It smells like a cool aunt with a gorgeous beach house. It can easily go from a cool summery sandalwood scent to a warm fall/winter cozy fragrance. It is warm, woody with a hint of spice, and effortlessly cool. It layers well, and someone always tells me I smell good when I wear it. No. 4 is such a keeper.

Beautiful unique scent- no longevity
Absolutely beautiful scent. Very clean and fresh, not too overly sweet and syrupy. That being said, the lasting power is abysmal at best. At this price point it should last more than an hour.

Not overpowering but very sophisticated
The only reason I’m giving 4 stars instead of 5 is that it’s a little on the subtle side for me. I personally like my fragrances to make a bit more of a “hey, I’m here!” statement. But honestly, that subtlety might be perfect if you’re looking for something classy and not too in-your-face.
Packaging is beautiful too, very sleek, minimalist, and makes me feel fancy every time I pull it out. Overall, Maison Louis Marie No.04 is a gorgeous, elegant fragrance that smells expensive (without breaking the bank) and is perfect for daily wear. Just maybe don’t expect to be stopping traffic.
All in all, this is a nice, well-balanced fragrance. It has a warm, woody scent that is subtle and sophisticated. The perfume lasts a decent amount of time and is suitable for everyday wear.

Great Longevity, But the Woodsy Scent Isn’t for Me
This perfume has a strong woodsy scent that really stands out. Woodsy isn’t my favorite scent, but if you enjoy that style of fragrance, you’ll definitely like this one. One spray is truly all you need — it lasts all day without fading.

The concentration is lower than expected
Concentration and longevity are more like Eau de Toilette, but not Eau de Parfum. I compare with the tester I received from Sephora earlier. Thanks to Sephora return policy, I returned it.
The scent is fantastic, but... it vanished from my skin after 4 hours - not the best option for someone who used to high concentration fragrances.
