Secret Potion

I love wearing this one at night and when going out. Preferably when the night is warm and summery. It wears wonderfully at a party while in close contact drinking. Once u hit the club it's gone though. I love the heavyness of the sweet smell it almost is like a heavy candy with a fresh aroma that just lingers. But once the body heat acts up or you become too active this scent dies off. I could see this being great just in a close quarters party. Not a club scent but still feels and smells amazing on when out in a warm summer breeze.

Smells very sweet and fruity..:) I love all of her perfumes, except inspire which is ok if your into floral scents. Maderine Orange stands out the most. The bottle is really cute<3

Feminine. Floral but very fresh. The sillage I think is just right, non-offending. The ingredients have been combined in a super yummy way. I like this a lot!

I can't wait to try this one so so soon :))))))))))

This is the best of all Aguilera ́s perfumes. I got my first bottle for $5 and later gave it to my mother, because in my home country perfumes are ridiculously expensive. She really liked it and emptied the bottle really fast. And i ́ve been missing Secret Potion since then. I will repurchase it, and i don ́t do that with many fragrances, but this one is so nice! It is feminine, soft and sweet. The opening has this combination of orange and passion fruit that is really irresistible, and i normally don ́t like passion fruit in perfumes but here it smells dessert-like. My husband says it smells like a bakery and i agree. I don ́t get a tropical vibe with this one. The opening fades rather quickly and then one is left with this creamy white flowers. Really elegant. A bit later, the opening notes come back again to join the white flowers. It is just so good. Sillage and longevity are unfortunately not that great, like with all other aguilera ́s fragrances but i do not mind having to reapply. This is just fabulous!

Since I can tolerate her other perfume Royal Desire which is my first perfume, I decided to try her other perfumes. This one starts out with fruity scent, but I can't detect any citrus scent so I guess it's passion fruit. Then after a while turns into floral scent, then final is musky scent. This one is heavier than Royal Desire, so one spray on a wrist and it's enough for me and it also last about 8 hours.

I smelt this in Boots around a week ago and all I can remember is vanilla...to be honest I'm a bit disappointed because I really though Christina's first fragrance was quite different and juicy, but this is a bit of a letdown. I will be buying a small bottle to support Christina and because I'm a big fan of hers, but I really hope they think of something new and different soon! A typical floral fruity :/

Secret Potion is, to me, definitely Christina's best fragrance so far. Its smells like cherry soda pop to me. Its sweet and sparkly. Its a happy scent. It does remind me of Avril Lavigne's Wild Rose without the creamy base Wild Rose has. The lasting power and projection are decent for the price. Finally a Christina Aguilera fragrance that I'm going to keep!

I mainly get passionfruit with a little lemon, after 1 hour there's a hint of vanilla too. It lasts about 2-3 hours on me, but I can only smell it strongly for 1 hour, then it becomes a skin scent. I really like it, but since it's quite weak I probably wouldn't buy it again.

I must admit - it's not bad! It actually smells quite lovely. A fruity-artificial type of a fragrance. For my nose, a cross between Clinique Happy for MEN and Ma Dame by JPG. Citrusy, tropical, slightly floral, sparky, bubbly. The best one from Christina.

For me it is a grown up fruity-sugary perfume. The passion fruit makes it more sofisticated. It is perfect for summer nights. I love it. Too bad the projection and longevity are not the best For a celebrity perfume is quite nice

This is a really soft fruity-sweet fragrance. I think it is pleasant because I don't like sharp sweet smells but it doesn't lat very long at all! It lasted an hour tops! Not happy at all.

I was expecting something a little bit more unique than this. It smells like a million other perfumes out there. It's nice, but it's just so similar to everything else. Emma x

I love this, only this perfume I bought multiple times, also the original christina Aguilera I bought more then once. I find this warm and kind of tropical.

My mom bought me this perfume because it was cheap (something like 15$). reminds me of clean bed sheets and a fuity shampoo.

First it is a little too heavy fruity, the the drydown is gorgeous!

On first application the first note I smell is a citrus blend, with a undertone of a lightly powdered vanilla note. I'm surprised that I can't smell any passion fruit - it is a strong and distinct scent in all of my other perfumes containing it. The vanilla is strong enough to last throughout the whole fragrance [I think it may be the perfume's interpretation of amber], so SECRET POTION remains sweet. I think that there must be rose in here, as something mixes with the vanilla and reminds me of Turkish Delights. Out of the listed floral notes only the jasmine stands out to me, everything else is lost in the sweet, powdery jumble. There is no strong indication between the heart notes and the base, thanks to the ever-present vanilla. The undefined wood note mingles closely together with the vanilla and the developing musk, so it is a warm and creamy mix. It's pleasant, but boring and too close to the skin. The easiest way to describe SECRET POTION is as a mix of Christina Aguilera, By Night and Royal Desire; It combines the fresh fruits of her first release with the soft, warm, oriental feel and quiet floral notes of her last two releases. As it is basically a mash-up of her previous editions, there isn't really much else to say for this edition, I'm just repeating myself in all honesty. Overall; I think that this a better blend then her self named release; the watery Christina Aguilera, but the florals are more underdeveloped then those in By Night and Royal Desire. Out of all of the Proctor and Gamble/Christina Aguilera perfumes I think that By Night is the one that is worth trying, SECRET POTION is just an imitation of a imitation.

I just sprayed this on my hand today and did my shopping. It started off very citrusy and fresh as other reviewers have already said. It stayed on my skin better than her other perfumes. I have washed my hands and I can still smell it. It dried to a very plain smell. It reminds me a little of the playboy perfumes. Pleasant but nothing to really get excited about and hard to describe because it is very bland with everything sort of mixing together. It is not peachy powdery like her first one, it's not chocolate like her By Night and there are no marshmellows like the Royal desire. The citrus is the most pronounced thing and difference between this and her previous editions. I like her pefumes and I wear all three all at once sometimes to strengthen the smell because they are so mild that it doesn't really matter so I am not sure if I would bother with this. Once the citrus wears off you are left with the trade mark vanilla present in all her perfumes. If you don't have any of her perfumes and would like to try then this one is a good start it is not dominated by anything in particular like her previous ones. I will eventually get it because I do like her perfumes for everyday wear but I am not rushing out to get it. If you like Play it Rock by Playboy you may like this one. This one nothing becomes too strong in it. I felt her previous editions the sandalwood would become too strong in the end and the marshmallow in Royal Desire mixed with the powder became too plasticky. This one is a nice middle of the road for her range.

Out of Christina Aguilera’s whole perfume collection, this one & inspire were my least faves. Least faves because this I remember being citrusy, which I’m not a fan of citrusy scents & inspire was a straight white floral (also not a fan of white florals alone). The one from CA that I have rebought multiple times and will continue to do so is... CA by night. That’s a vanilla musk scent. It’s stunning & one of 2 faves from celebs (Britney Spears Fantasy & CA By Night).

Im usually a huge fan of christinas fragrances. Her original frag is my all time fave. I was disappointed with secret potion however. It smells likes cherry licorice and not in a good way (if there is such a thing as cherry licorice!?) even though cherry isnt listed in the notes. i dont get much citrus at all. It doesn't have anything special about it, its also pretty weak and rather flat. It didn't last long on my skin either. I wont be purchasing a bottle of this.
