Amazing

Firstly Im A Bloke/Guy: I was first introduced to this fragance by a female co-woker who wore nothing only Bill Blass Nude,& while on holiday in the USA bought three bottles off Nude, but was given a free bottle off Amazing 100ml EDP!! When she tried it on herself she absolutely "HATED" it,& her husband would'nt even try it for himself!! lol'lol'lol That was way back i Aug 2001,& I've been hooked/wearing this so unusal fragrance ever since!! & let me add that I "NEVER" fail too be asked "what fragrance is that,that your wearing" not in a very bad way, but actually a very "GOOD" way!! Most people who ask me absolutely love it on me, including my own Mother!! & being a Senior Theather Pre-Op Nurse have to be really careful what I use while im in work!! Bill Blass Amazing: To my nose anyway is a very fresh green grassy/mossy/woody type of smell, kind of like walking in a Forest after heavy rain fall!! It also reminds me off the Original Miss Dior EDT by Christian Dior,& also Estee Lauder's Original Private EDP both I also really like/enjoy & wear!! What I really like about Bill Blass Amazing EDP is the fact that not everyone is wearing it or using it!! I can fully understand that so many people seem to dislike this perfume, as when I first put it on/wore it I was very un-sure about it also!! I'll say this: It's defo a perfume that gets better the longer it's on your skin,& once it fully develops it's really soft/fresh/green & indeed Amazing,& it wears really well & long on my skin, which is really a true blessing for me,& the job I do!! Please don't just cast this real beauty aside, you really do have to understand it fully firstly too see it's full beauty come alive!! & if you already like the Original Miss Dior EDT & Estee Lauder's Private Collection EDP then you should really like this also!! It's perfect for Spring/Summer-Daywear/Nightwear,& a real show stopper once it's fully developed on your skin!! I also have Bill Blass Basic Black,Bill Blass Nude,& Bill Blass EDP & can honestly say that I really do like them all,& how they wear on my skin!! So yes most Bill Blass Fragrances are indeed lovely & very classy in their own way!! :-) Xx

Amazing . . . it's hard to believe the name when you first smell this one. My initial reaction was, "What the heck! Why did my husband buy this?" At first I was calling it "Bill Blast," because it was so overwhelming and strange. There are mimosa soaps and other products, but I don't think that they compare to this. I believe it's how the notes work together that make it so . . . um . . . amazing. When I wear it, I feel like I am covered a warm, sexy leather blanket. I'm not sure why aldehydes aren't listed, since it's classified as an aldehyde fragrance. Something about aldehydes, or maybe it's musk, makes me feel like I'm wearing a warm fur coat or leather jacket. I can see why other reviewers say it could be unisex, because it's has such a leathery and androgynous way about it. As one expert pointed out, the ingredients might be more volatile or ephemeral than average. I store mine in the box. I think that's good practice. We can learn from old-time consumers who always took care of the things they spent good money on. Anyway, Amazing deserves a chance. It's seductive, edgy and may remind you of those other great, bold 80's scents. Really, this one was born too late. I enjoy it in the winter and cooler weather, but anytime is fine. And if you don't want it, there's more for me! * A few minutes later, I just wanted to add that I have an EDP tester.

This review is for EDT, which is vastly different from the EDP, it's two different perfumes really. EDT is green spring flowers, EDP is carnation. Delicate lily of the valley, sweetened with peach and musk. Pleasant aldehydes, not a sharp green blast as it can happen in other aldehydic perfumes. A hint of mimose intervined with tuberose. It’s a truly amazing scent or it can be when worn at the right time - and the right time for this for me is the end of winter or very beginning of spring, when the air is still cool and it's windy and damp and rather bleak outside. I tried Amazing in hot summer - blah, in cold winter - blah. Can't remember how it behaves in fall - it might be another suitable season. The sillage is impressive, lasted for a whole day and I could still smell it on my wrist in the morning. An elegant and classy composition and a very Victorian-like romantic lady effect: I want to wear dresses and beads and all the girly staff and watch my ps and qs. Loverly.

I’m not sure what’s up with all the other negative reviews, but the two I purchased on a blind buy are very , VERY nice! it is spring and sunny 65 degree weather in Oklahoma. I feel this is an underrated hidden gem. This scent is light, feminine, softly sweet, and is very very well blended. I’d do not pick up any sharp, strong or otherwise chemical smells at anytime when spraying this lovely perfume. this is really nice! Not a fan of the bottle but, I would still love to keep this one as an everyday fragrance! It is not everyday one can find an affordable really nice perfume that doesn’t choke you out somehow with chemical nuances you have to wait way too long to go away before it smells even relatively nice. This one is soft & stellar from initial spray to dry down, and is pretty long lasting too! I recommend this to any and every feminine female. It really is a lovely scent I would recommend to anyone. And I will be undoubtedly buying again.

I agree with Fatima1219. I can't pick out any individual notes and haven't smelled anything like this, but find it unusual in a very good way. It's a warm weather scent, as the temperature today in Liverpool is causing it to bloom, bringing out the florals. I hesitated to buy this for several years, then couldn't resist when it was so cheap on Sephora's website and I had a code for free delivery. At £7.45 for 100ml it's a brilliant bargain as it smells far more expensive.

I didn’t understand this scent until I wore it outside on a spring day. The watery florals in this really came out and it smelled earthy and beautiful. Very interesting and well done perfume and so unique. I have a large collection and I don’t have anything else that smells like this. It is my go-to gardening perfume in the spring and summer, very unisex!

I think it's just a flowery scent with light peach aroma on deep for summer...Even it's EDT form is very very longlasting on me(I can't think it's EDP!...)It can be worn as a strong summer fragrance or romantic ladies can use it as a light fall- spring perfume!...

I thought it was older than 1999. I like it because it is soft and long wearing. I would not call it sweet maybe a sweet musky? I did buy the lotion and it was horrible and not at all the same smell as the perfume. It is perfect for daytime.

i used to wore this everyday in high school absolutely loved the scent. i remember when i was buying it i was told to get the Parfum version and that both EDT and EDP are both not as good.

It took me 20 years to appreciate this. Maybe the top note has finally settled down? In any case, it’s finally Amazing, with peach notes I love. Perfect pretty daytime scent.

So I have recently discovered Bill Blass fragrances...wonder how come I have not tried some of them in the past. Since I hear they are unassuming and different, and I appreciate that! In case of Amazing, reviews are so mixed, but looking at the notes I usually like, purchase was decided. I get when some reviewers say screeching, hhmm, it's citruss , LOTV and mimosa coming on strong at first, it's almost as I like this but could have been done differently. Tuberose, slight baby barf whif, very faint for me, I can see how this would put some people off. I find it bright, sunny, happy, Mimosa all the way thru, LOTV and creamy lotion like, it gets better with time. Lasts unil next day. Clean, shower lotion scent. I really like it. There is also aquatic feel to it, possibly water lillies. Like some reviewers said batch gone bad and storage has lot to do with it. This is 90s era of perfumes and very pleasantly reminiscent of that time for me. I initially put it on and thought it was little too much but 30min later I smelled Aaaamazing, till the end of the day :) Very affordable too. Personally I like Mimosa, very winter early spring scent, and I find it's done badly in many perfumes. However here, it's working out for me, and I really like it as a base note that stays on for 12+ hours.

This is something like I've never smelled before. I can't distinguish any of the notes listed above. That must mean they are perfectly blended. To my nose, this reminds me of a hair dress my Mother used to use for my hair called Ultra Sheen. Bill Blass' Amazing smells eccentric and weird, but I like it. I like scents that are different from what I'm normally drawn to. Also, I like fragrances that are different from what is popular at the moment. In other words, if you want to stand out and be remembered--this'll do it! Amazing has great sillage and longevity--and priced at a great value. Also, it does not smell dated, in the least bit. I blind bought this because I love the excitement of the blind buy, but I would not consider it safe to do so--unless you're adventurous like me, lol.

The bottle with black stripes is EDT; with gold stripes EDP. Different notes, so if the reviews are all over the map, I suspect it is because the editions are different.

I must join the ranks of those disliking Amazing. I gave it a fair shot, I wore it for 7 hours--it does have good longevity--but I didn't like it at all. White florals don't often work for me, but I do like a good LOTV...this one is an unrecognizable LOTV, one that is combined in an odd way with a nutty-musky-honey note that I think must be the mimose. It does not produce a balanced composition at all; the floral notes were high and shrill, the honey-mimose was trying to bring it down a notch, but it was just dischordant; I think the aldehyde nature of this fragrance is just too intense, too sharp. I don't get the peach mentioned by others, and to me this does not smell like the powdery-peach of Tresor at all. It almost reminded me of Halston Sheer, despite sharing virtually no notes; there was still a similar quality here. If you like a floral aldehyde, you might enjoy this scent.

Old bottles might turn easily. What i have is a bitter mossy chemical mess. I see how this coild be considered powdery, but it really smells like an expired cosmetic. Very very bad. Nothing sweet, nothing floral, nothing i expected from the notes. It smells lile an old closet. It' bitter, chemical... I cannot call this a perfume. And i like old style perfumes, i enjoy aromatics elixir, gres cabochard etc - but this one is no masterpiece. Or perfume for that matter... It's cheap, but don t get fooled by the notes as i did. I really smelles something like Mylton Loyd Chique. Or a very bad chinese clone for... Something. I had another musky bill blass bottle thay turned. It smells pretty much like that one.

I have the original bottle as I was gifted the perfume around the time it first came out. The bottle is still three quarters full and I believe the last time I used this was over ten years ago as I had kept the bottle in my locker at work. Not sure if the scent I smell from the bottle is still the original but it smells very harsh with floral aldehydic and musky notes but that could be due to its age. Longevity around 6 hrs and sillage is moderate. Scent is similar to YSL Yvresse which I also have the original bottle. I didn’t think this perfume was still in production as I thought it has been discontinued so I don’t know what the newer batches smell like.

I love Estee lauder White Linen and Jeffreydame's review intrigued me. An "ultra modern up date on White Linen" drew me in, so did the amazing low price. Unfortunately, I smell soapy greens and grass, actually, it turns to late summer golden dry grass ending with sandalwood. With my chemistry, I smell Lauren's Safari. I would have preferred a tad more water lily, but alas, can't pick up that note yet. I don't give up easily.

I really don’t like writing negative reviews but this is the worst fragrance I have ever purchased. Maybe I got a bad bottle. I was hoping it was going to be similar to the original Bill Blass which I love. On me it has a hairspray smell. It was just an add on purchase for only $1.99 so not a loss and the bottle is pretty.

This is just awful!! Smells like Vicks Vapour Rub! Anyone else smell that menthol smell? I picked this up at Winners- blind buy- for $6.99 and now I can smell why it was so cheap....will use it to spray on my carpet if the kitty has "accidents"..

My body chemistry turned this to wet straw. Fortunately, I had a friend that liked the smell on her. The dusting powder is nice. This is a perfect example of body chemistry turning what might well be a good frangrance, into a nightmare smell.
