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.

I love it! I do not like vanilla anything and I detect none at all. More of a woodsy/amber scent which is my favorite. I have the lotion, bath gel and spray. Does not last a super long time, but is light enough to reapply without becoming overpowering. Give a spritz to my hair also. Inexpensive as well. I am over 40 and it is very becoming. Not just for the younger crowd!

I love this tartly sweet frag. Unfortunately, ill have to try to not get attached bc B&BW tends to discontinue a lot.....-_-. This fruitcholi is fresh and tart; not cloying at all. I smell sour strawberry and peony. Its not sophisticated but its flirty and femenine iin a fun way. More tart than sweet

I really miss this fragrance.😭😭😭 It's seriously so good! It mainly consists of big,plump,juicy,sweet strawberries and hearty patchouli! A touch of Sweetness. It's girly,gently seductive,and oh so pretty! It smells good enough to eat!

Usually not a huge floral person, but this one is great. Romantic. Reminds me of something kind of dated, but in a good way. I think the base of patchouli and amber makes this one for me. Unlike anything else.

The berries smell delicious in this!! A sweet and fruity fragrance, although I wished the silage was stronger for this :( Others still can’t smell it on me despite being very generous with the sprays!!

Lovely berry-influenced floral splash. Sweet, sweet, sweet, best in moderate doses! I have used it in my perfume rotation for over a year and still enjoy it thoroughly.

Very pretty smell, feminine, sweet but very bearable! Cute little bottle that's perfect to throw in your bag. I've gotten many compliments on this fragrance.

Love it madly! is definitely sweet enough to me! i also found some sour candy on it... it's sexy!

I find the patchouli in this to be very strong, and if people don't like patchouli, they might find that this smells dirty or weird. It is kind of a polarizing combo, the strawberry & patchouli, but it isn't the first time it's been done (Rihanna's Rebelle, but there are plenty of spicy notes and cacao and coffee to balance out the sweetness of the strawberry). I used to really like this one but might pass it on to someone else since I don't wear it much. I had it on my December Perfume Tray and touched it once. I remember first trying it and thinking it was addictive which lead me to buy it. It's similar to lots of Bath and Body Works floral fruity scents, but with that patchouli aspect. Does remind me of a rich girly girl in a way. Maybe I'll give it more chances in the spring before giving it away. Not mind-blowing, but a nice BBW scent. Not for everyone.

I've smelled Mad About You which is supposed to be in stores February 3rd. It's the Valentines collection, when I thought Velvet Sugar should of been for Valentines Day. It's very similar to Velvet Sugar. I can smell some differences though. I smell the White Patchouli ( which isn't overbearing ) It's acutally enjoyable for those who really don't like Patchouli much , Strawberry, Mint, Musk, Vanilla and Black Current. I think Mad About You is the mature version of Velvet Sugar aimed at a slighty older crowd, than Velvet Sugar is. Overall I give Mad About You a 7/10, because I'm not a huge fan of patchouli, it really depends on how well it goes together with the other notes like how Katy Perry Killer Queen is. I think this perfume is good for day, and night. This lasts between 4, and 6 hours on me, which is good for a EDT.

My sis just gave this to me for xmas. I finally had the courage to try it and it actually agrees with my skin! I like it a lot! Sweet but not cloying, nothing turning sour (like it sometimes does with BBW products when they combine too much sweet with too much musk). I should mention that I'm using the Diamond Shimmer Mist version, not the actual perfume. that's OK, the mini glitters are fun! I would say this is a nice balanced "warm pink" smell - the berries aren't overwhelming and I think the florals are well selected to blend it all together. I'm detecting cedar too, just a little, not too dry - must be the amber wood combined with the musk and peony (?) - I'm new at note detection. EDIT: Dang, I got tired of it quickly. Must be the musk. :( Gave it to teen daughter.

This is a unique scent for Bath and Bodyworks. Everything lately all smells the same and all of the good fragrances have been discontinued. To me it smells like how I think a bouquet of Peonies would smell. I can also smell the strawberry in it. Unfortunately it is not as strong or last nearly as long as I would hope it would and for $40 a bottle I'm not sure I would repurchase it. There are so many better stronger longer lasting fragrances on the market and the price is too steep for the quality. Don't fall for the cute bottles people!!! Its what's on the inside that counts :)

MaY starts delightfully with juicy, tart and sweet berries. Yes black currant is the star of the show, but you also get the strawberries and probably some raspberries as well. After a while some rosy florals peek in shyly. Overall MaY is a pleasant flirty fragrance that is not ground breaking but very wearable. The performance for the EDT is a little better than the mist, but in my opinion the slight improvement doesn’t justify the price difference.

Very fruity, as the main accords suggest! What I mostly get is the black currant. The peony tones down the fruity blast of the black currant and strawberry. Lasts a long time, but obviously since this is only available in the body spray now, and only during the Semi-Annual Sale, you have to spray a TON to get that lasting power (which I do anyway). It's very sweet and I think most people would like this.

To me, this one manages to break the Bath and Body Works mold a bit and has more character than so many of their releases. I really smell the berries and a little patchouli and musk. I didn't think I liked it after getting the trial bottle but I wore it around one day and went, "Ooh...I really like this." Of course I've been a BBW junkie since high school. Trying to break the habit. But I love this one.
