Essence of United Colors of Benetton Woman

OMG - why have I never heard of this before? Just got my 30ml bottle, total blind buy partly because of the notes/reviews on here & partly because it was just soooo stupidly cheap! I'm guessing it is soon to be discontinued because the price I paid for this little gem is embarrassing! Typical! I have been looking for this forever - in my opinion a beautifully blended peachy green jasmine with a patchouli base. Yes it maybe feels similar to some others out there, but 'those others' are all either too loud, or sweet, or fruity - this to me is just perfect. To my nose its a softer Gucci Rush or a sweeter YR Comme une Evidence. I'm off to snap up any remaining bottles asap! ;)

Pretty & clean floral fruity, rather sporty. From the notes, I expected some romance, but it's just a good and young scent in the simple Benetton traditions. Nothing WOW.

Bitter. This one reminds me a lot of Burberry Summer Brit, do not like it to be honest.

It's just not my favorite. Too strong for me. The bottle looks cute, though.

Purchased this unsniffed based on the reviews and on the main description that indicates that this a rose scent. This is similar to other scents, so it's not original by any means. I was a bit concerned when I purchased this one as to whether or not it would be as sweet as the original Benetton but to my surprise this was quite different. This is a light scent, soft and feminine. The main emphasis is around the rose and musk. This is a sophisticated perfume that would work well all year round or for office and casual use. The orange notes make this perfume perfect for Spring and Summer too. The musk in this perfume makes this scent sexy, not as innocent as it first appears to be. The other notes I cannot detect they are quite subdued. I like that this is not too floral as I don't like florals as much. It's is not a strong musky scent but it manages to blend nicely with rose.The staying power is rather weak on my skin which is a bit of a disappointment since I was expecting to be long lasting based on the reviews. Seems to last longer on clothes and hair. I use this one like a body spray I just keep spraying! The name of the fragrance is spot on Essence of a Woman. Cant' wait to try this one for the day. I'm sure my husband is going to love this one since he loves rose and musk. Great for romantic evening too!

I got this as a blind buy & at the first sniff I liked it. But then after it was on my skin for a while it started to make me feel ill. It's just a bit too soapy & bitter to me! I don't get any of the citrusy notes at all! Some people have said it smells like Coco Mademoiselle, but I don't get that at all :( Sooo disappointed. Got a 100ml bottle (boxed - sprayed a couple of times) if anyone is interested in a swap? :)

Oh my god I have this one for years,I got it for my birthday,and this is soooo fruiry and sweety version of coco mademoiselle chanel. I have mademoiselle ,too. The only differrnce is that chanel is more simple,not so sweet and fruity like this one. But,anyways the perfume scent depends on the persons skin,too. So you can buy this one for cheap and say you sprayed mademoiselle if someone asks you. :))

I found it half price in while I was at a Kohl's store. Interestingly, I seem to like its initial and base notes as it is a little on the sweet side. After you spray it turns a little sweeter. For an eau de toilette impressive staying power.

Nice fresh smelling, white-floral fragrance that scents thin...Lasting power is about average for an EDT...I tried it once at freeshop, but I want to try it again, for being sure about...

This one turns out quite light on my skin... Also a bit peppery too, but I like it. Good enough to wear on a birthdayparty orso...

Did any one agree that this perfume is rather similar as chanel coco Mademoisell???

This is exactly like Coco Madmoiselle but cheaper (price talking)
