Mad About You

I really enjoy Mad About You. It's sweet but not as candylike as Be Enchanted, for example, hence it's more suitable for daytime/office wear. The peony blends well with a very realistic blackcurrant/strawberry accord. I like the blackcurrant because it's different from the usual fruits one finds in mainstream fruity-florals. The drydown is somewhat spicy with a tiny hint of musk, almost unisex, actually. I could see an adventurous man trying Mad About You. The trick to making this scent last is overspraying, and possibly layering with the other products in the line. The shimmering body cream, which comes in a can like whipped cream, is very nice indeed. I achieved a moderate/"long-lasting" longevity and a moderate sillage. Many people complemented me on my perfume, but no one said it was excessive.

Got this body fragrance last winter (2014) on a whim with my sister. We both had to get our own, such a beautiful scent. We also mainly got this because we heard a lot of guys had bought this for their gfs. We figured it must be good. What captured me was its inital juiciness with florals sparkling in the background. To me this scent screams confidence, expensive taste (spoil me) and a lovely date. I love to wear this on late nights and even during the day when I need to feel like "that chick" lol. I can also definitely pick up the strawberry, peony and pink jasmine notes. One thing about it, is it's a bit strong so I wouldn't put on too much and it has great staying power. Love it.

I'm a fragrance connoisseur and have purchased many niche and designer fragrances. However, Mad about you definitely still has that special in my heart. I first fell in love with this scent and have built so many great memories while wearing this fragrance. Since the perfume has been discontinued, I've tried to buy something similar like Mon Paris from YSL, but I find that so juvenile and lacking that sultriness that Mad about you has. Mad about you (I'm talking from body mist point of view as I've never smelled the perfume) is such a masterpiece and is one of a kind body mist. Please bring back the body mist and body shimmer mist!

I bought the small sample bottle back in February but did not give it more than a test whiff and set it aside. I'm not sure why I waited so long to give Mad About You a good try. Maybe it was because the weather was still so cold and this seems to be more of a spring/summer scent. Anyway, I have recently started wearing it and love it! So light, fresh, and fruity. Just an extra tip. Mad About You does not seem to last very long on the skin. I tend to also give my hair a good spritz of it. Seems to me the scent holds longer on my hair.

I bought a few sample bottles of this via mail from BBW last week and have to say I rather like it. I'm usually not crazy about black currant, but this is done tastefully. It mixes with my chemistry very nicely, and while the sillage isn't much, it does last a good while on the skin and longer on clothing and hair. For a BBW, I'd have to say that along with Forever Red and Amber Blush, this is a keeper.
