Cashmere Mist Eau de Toilette

Mmmmmm...This perfume just simply gets me puzzled. First of all in a way I agree with Konga5000, as for I don`t really know what it`s doing in my collection for the price I bought it for when I could have bought something else more flamboyant and lovely instead..I was at Debenhams with my friends and as we strolled around we just stood for a moment for a bit of a chat and before we moved on I looked over to one of the bottom shelves and I spotted a few bronze and silver perfume set boxes and one stuck between them. Somehow I instinctively pulled out the gold tone one and before I read the black letters on them I knew this is Cashmere Mist. My heart skipped a beat as I have been thinking about trying it for a week or two now, so to me this seemed destiny as you can`t really buy them anywhere over here these days..I was already covered with samples all over so I asked a friend to offer her wrist for testing the fragrant juice and after a few minutes of waiting we started sniffing - and a wonderful, comforting, elegant scent escaped from her skin! I was convinced, we headed to the cashpoint and I was in seventh heaven with my first bottle ever! But then came the disappointment -arriving home and after shower I opened the box to try it myself and no matter how long I waited after drying all I could smell is leather, leather and more leather. Hours later a bit of jasmine appeared, but it didn`t do me any favors at that point. I was turned down. At this point in time I am holding on to the bottle and I will be posting updates.. UPDATE: I still think there is some truth in comparing this fragrance to dryer sheets..But it is starting to grow on me. I started getting the cashmeran wood note now, although it doesn`t last long on me, and the powder mingled with leather stays on longer, especially the leather. The powder is somehow more baby powder than anything, and I tested it in different environments - including relative low humidity medical device cleanroom, where all scents come out way better than anywhere else - and yet the staying power doesn`t seem to be great..I had to reapply 3 times during my 8-hour shift and all it did is it `stayed close to the skin`..I really wish it was stronger! It might work better in warmer climate? Or is there an eau de parfum? A friend of mine loves it though, she wants her own bottle now, as it is `a beautiful, elegant, graceful scent, one for a women of our age`. I think she is right, I`ll persevere, at least as long as my bottle lasts..

I tested Donna Karan's Cashmere Mist (EDP) years ago and absolutely loved it. I didn't purchase it then since it was pricey. I have a few of her other fragrances that were more within my price range since I bought them on sale. I LOVE this perfume. I've had it on for about 4 hours now and can still smell it particularly on my top. It's best to use a light hand with this one because it opens strong and has the capacity to overwhelm. This fragrance is powdery and warm and you can detect the woody notes in the dry-down. Like many other people, I despise powdery perfumes intensely (especially when combined with jasmine), which is why I almost passed this one by. But the powdery note in CM is very well balanced with the other notes (including jasmine), so the powdery note doesn't overwhelm. CM also has a soapy smell-- so it's perfect to use right after a shower on clean, moisturized skin. Again, this is a good reason to use a light hand, particularly with the EDP. Perfumes that have a combination of soapy, powdery and floral/citrus notes can be a huge miss when over-sprayed since they become cloying and monstrous especially in warm/hot weather. But not with CM. It's sensual and clean, with a warm, creamy dry-down. I doubt this will last beyond the summer as I find myself wanting to use it more than my other fragrances. I can see myself using this fragrance year-round given it's fresh, clean, floral opening and soft dry-down. But I would definitely use it during the gloomy winter months when I need something to lift my mood. I feel this is a safe blind-buy especially for those who like powdery, soapy florals. You might want to test both the EDP and EDT, as some may favor the EDT more given how strong both can be. If you are not yet ready to splurge on DK's Cashmere Mist, consider Perfect Scents' version of Cashmere Mist which you can find on Amazon. Many feel it's a very close dupe, others don't. Either way, you have nothing to lose when you pay less than $10 for a 2.5 oz flanker. I absolutely intend to use the dupe more and sparingly layer the authentic one so I don't finish it so quickly.

I like this one a lot now. I didn’t a year ago, when I first tested it. It is clean and minimalistic. Clean without cucumber or water melon. Clean in a sense of shower gel and body lotion/body cream type of smell. It is woody and musky in addition. Very comfortable, cozy, close to skin type of scent. I do not smell much florals, maybe only a hint in the opening, all I smell is woody musk. Not sweet. I quess I had no idea how much I like this type of scents. I think it is good in all these cases you want to wear a perfume and not supposed to or situation not allows to wear one, such like close spaces with lots of people, job interviews, hospitals or such. You smell like you had a shower and scentless body lotion, not more. At the same time you smell very good and it lasts very long. A hint of sandalwood, very slight vanilla and softest suede. And musk. I love it. To try for lovers of woody musk and subtle scents. A very similar but much more expensive is Penhaligon Artemisia. Smells exactly the same to me. Well, that bottle of Cashmere Mist is not most glamorous bottle, especially not nowadays, it is rather very simple and not something you notice first. I quess it is all for people with minimalistic style, who doesn’t demand any attention but rather radiate quiet but persistent presence. it is a good girl scent though. i could never have it as my only fragrance. i would get bored. but i definitely want a bottle in my collection.

I like this one. I first smelled it at my ex mother in laws house, she kept a basket of various perfumes and hand creams by the sink in her guest bathroom. I spritzed a bit on my wrist and was like.... Ohhh that’s nice. As others have said, it’s “cozy”. I like to wear just a tad to bed, or as one of my every day scents I switch up. Musk fragrances are my favorite. I love mixing them. This, then some of the Jovan musk oil on top smells fantastic. Also, I do get where some people said it can be a little cloying. I feel that way about most perfume honestly. But my love of fragrance has taught me to adapt.... ADAPTATION TIP: If you feel your fragrance is too overwhelming, apply it in different locations away from the face. My go to points are ankles, backs of the knees, and back of the neck. It’s enough to give yourself a subtle hint of fragrance rather than a punch in the face....yet let others smell its full beauty during a hug, or leave a lovely scent trail for others to enjoy as you walk by. 😁

I see all of the negative comparisons - scented toilet paper, dove bar soap, OFF bugspray - and, well...maybe...BUT, it's still perfect. This is such a comfort. It IS Nivea tinned creme. Also reminiscent of Waterbabies sunscreen, which I love. In the AI list of cons: it's "not as outgoing or attention grabbing as other fragrances" ...yeah...no....because that's not the point. This is supposed to be understated, serene, maternal -and it does all of those things beautifully. Reminds me a lot of Noa but a bit sweeter - such a lovely use of musk. The last traces of it are "vanilla candle" but that's my only critique. And props to FragranceFloosie below for calling out the gross ageism that shows up in too many reviews. Scent exists as art beyond the era it was released and far beyond our own bias - any review that's just an insult to the people who wear it is a review that isnt worth posting.

I like this a LOT. This scent reminds me of Chanel Chance. Both have a huge presence. They're like a fresher, instead of stuffy, powerhouse perfumes from the 80's. I'm slightly more impressed with Cashmere Mist. It's a bit more feminine, and leaves a softer veil around you. It sort of meanders into your nostrils, while Chance bursts through like a Black Friday rush, leaving you starry-eyed. I feel both are equal, and if you prefer one over the other, it won't be by much....this is just my guess. Both scents are very mature, or should I say, serious, to my nose? I would expect to turn the corner and see Demi Moore vs. Agyness Deyn. These are not what I consider frolicking playful scents. If I were between two rooms of women, one room wearing Cashmere Mist and one wearing Chance, I would go between the two rooms pretty much equally. Take your pick....or buy both!?

I can hardly describe how much I love this perfume. I don't believe in perfume genders, so I wear this one myself with no regrets - instead I love its smell and the fact that I smell this way. I feel very confident in general so I pull this out with style. I don't find this too sweet or too floral, the main note I get is suede which I love. The funny thing is that I don't really like the suede note in any other perfume but I adore it in Cashmere Mist. I also have to admit that this perfume reminds me of a great friend of mine, it was her first perfume back in 1996. I loved it the moment I first smell it on her - it was quite stronger back then but the smell is still the same. Unfortunately she passed away really young, at the age of 39. This perfume will always remind me of her and the great time we always had together. This review is dedicated to her.

Cashmere Mist reminds me of that commercial from the 80s for Nestlé Alpine White with Almonds that was based on Maxfield Parrish paintings: "Sweet Dreams you can't resist, N-E-S-T-L-E-S." While it doesn't smell at all like white chocolate or cocoa solids or almonds or anything of the sort, it feels "creamy white, dreamy white." A warm musky, powdery brume that reminds me of fresh laundry and simpler times. I will agree with another reviewer (rogalal on Basenotes) that this is reminiscent of the way Thomas Pink boutiques would smell—I had a penchant for their baroque-patterned ties—and yes, there was a time when I wore ties to work! This is also my favorite use of Cashmeran besides the dazzling Dans Tes Bras from Maurice Roucel. It just makes me want to hunker down swaddled in a blanket with a cup of hot chocolate, simple as that.

Timeless, clean, classy and really good longevity and projection on my skin without being too sharp or overpowering in any way. I was relieved that the woody notes were hardly noticeable on me, since my skin chemistry doesn't love woody notes (except cedar) as much as I do. Longevity 6+ hrs. It's regrettable that I've only just discovered this fragrance now that it's so hard to find in my area. There was a tester and one fragrance to buy right behind it. I just didn't have the money today (low apprentice income). If I didn't have extremely dry skin and strictly had to prioritize 2x 500ml body lotion, I would've taken Cashmere Mist home with me. If I can find it again in a few months or if I get lucky at the beginning of next year, I'm definitely buying Donna Karan Cashmere Mist.

(Full disclosure: I bought the EDP, it smells the same but with better longevity). I was searching for a perfume reminiscent of Dove soap, but your typical soapy perfumes, especially the photorealistic ones, are too much like detergent to my nose. I want to smell clean but still like a perfume, not cheap soap or Tide! Well, this is it. I found it. The suede note keeps it grounded and out of detergent territory. It’s even better than Dove—imagine the most luxurious, fragrant soap at a fancy spa or five-star hotel. Absolutely beautiful, floral and creamy. It’s like a more sophisticated, winter cousin of NOA, my other soapy favorite. And just like NOA, I’ll be wearing it everywhere.

Leave it to Nicholas Calderone to make a cashmere wood fragrance I can actually get behind. On me this reads as a lily-forward white floral bouquet set against a softly animalic backdrop. Powdery, cozy, dreamy. I understand what other reviewers are picking up as musty (the suede note I believe) but to my nose this actually takes the fragrance in a gently chypric direction I can appreciate. For my age group (I was born in 1992) this is likely to remind of our mothers’ generation, and it IS an extremely 90s composition, but one that retains a certain plushness of 70s & 80s powerhouses. Dated? Perhaps, but also evidence our Gen X moms have dope taste B-)

I first smelled this in Vanity Fair a few years ago and I loved it so much, unfortunately I had a hard time finding this, but my sister somehow found it and gave it to me for Christmas this year. It smells of vanilla and cashmere with a delicious hint of Amber. However, I do not suggest buying this off Ebay or Amazon because you will probably get a cheap knock off that smells of alcohol and a nasty chemical scent. I learned this first hand when I bought this as a gift for a friend it smelled nothing like the one I got for Christmas. So, just be careful where you buy designer perfume from because you might get a cheap knockoff.

A cashmere/wool sweater drenched in the classic Nivea cream. The only perfume that gave me a nostalgic feel to my senses and wanted me to cry was Narciso Rodriguez, Narciso. That creamy white brick bottle. Narciso is a creamy nostalgic musky gardenia. This is a creamy nostalgic cashmere musky Nivea. I can't find another definition than Nivea. Maybe it's jasmine with the lily of the valley mixed with the leather and cashmere. It's innocent and , oh so easily a signature. That being said , ....Dude.....!!!! Never judge a perfume by its package and /or bottle. A must have for me!

Beautifully crafted all around! Word to the wise this perfume has been reformulated all over the place. So much in fact that I have 4 bottles that all smell completely different. If you can find the older stuff that's what you want. The current version while nice takes back seat to the original. If your shooting for current formulation your actually better buying the wallgreens instyle version it smells just like the new stuff, when buying vintage make sure you ask if it's not rancid. For some reason this one tends to turn easier then others in my collection.

Just a tidbit: the reason this fragrance is called "Cashmere Mist" is that it's named after the body creme (called "Cashmere") originally released as part of the line of body products to accompany the original Donna Karan fragrance. The scent of the body creme contained just the base notes of the actual Donna Karan perfume. The scent of the body creme was so popular that DK released it as its own fragrance: Cashmere (the name of the creme) + Mist (a sprayable perfume).

This is a beautiful, romantic fall/winter scent. It has pretty good longevity, I sprayed last night before going to bed and the scent still lingers on my skin. Very feminine indeed. I'm glad I decided to buy it (last year) after craving it for some time. The name and the bottle are what first got my attention to it, then came the reviews here and the sample. A really good buy. I would not use this in hot days, I tried that and it turned into an obnoxious soapy scent.

This is the best example of a classy fragrance without being too matronly. I'm 36 and would easily wear this daily. It has the boss woman-ness of YSL's Libre minus the lavender, and just the right amount of powdery-clean scent. Usually, my body chemistry picks up on the vanillas, musks, or powders, and they overwhelm the other notes, however no note is overpowering in this scent to me - all blend for a lovely, classy scent that can be worn by many ages. Well done.

A comforting, creamy. sensual cloud of goodness. My mom wore CM when I was growing up and now, as I’ve emerged into adulthood, I’ve grown to love it too. It makes me happy to know so many others appreciate its beauty. CM longevity is great. Lots of scents fade fast on me but I can smell this lingering hours after application. Evolves beautifully on the skin. Translates easily from work to a cozy date night. Wherever you wear it you will just smell beautiful.

This smells very feminine , warm , soft & very comfortable , yet clean . It’s a scent that my fiancee doesn’t mind because many scents out there give him a stuffy nose & even an instant headache - he likes this & I love it , so it’s a win win . I feel like this is all me ‘ cause I love warm vanilla creamy scents. This to me is a skin scent all the way . As noted it’s very inoffensive , yet delicious & very womanly in every way .

I don’t know why this scent gets so much hate. Though it wasn’t love at first sniff and it took a while to grow on me it is an absolute favorite of mine. If I were to describe it in one word it would simply be sex. This is one of the sexiest scents I have and I have repurchased many times. To me is smells like fresh clean skin wrapped up in cashmere sheets in the winter. I cannot describe it as anything better and I love it.

Cashmere Mist - I love this fragrance a lot. in the 90ies it used to be my signature scent for years. I had the entire line from body lotion to shampoo and conditioner just to wrap myself into this soft and feminine fragrance. I still love it today and use it from time to time to evoke nice memories. Still very unique if you don't count it's flankers and copies. Stunning bottle and packaging design, a modern classic.

Many years ago I moved to europe and would go back and forth due to work trips, so one of those boring days at the airport I tried this and it became my winter scent ever since. Because it feels like home, like reading a book under the blankets, It is a true passion for me. Longevity is moderate, good. I repurchased it two years ago and from now on it will have a permanent place in my humble collection.

This was released in 1994. I know for sure because my first son was born that year, and this fragrance reminds me of being a mother of an infant and working in Human Resources in the corporate world of the '90s. It's a calming, elegant scent that takes me back to stressful days during changing times. I wouldn't wear this for years, but I believe I can wear it again now. It's very beautiful.

This was my signature scent for awhile. Fresh, softly green florals of lily of the valley and jasmine that dry to the softest suède. I prefer edt to the sharper edp. Its perfectly suited to both summer heat and autumn's chill. It's soft but fresh; clean, office safe but still a compliment receiver. Sillage is medium but longevity is forever on me. Absolutely lovely.

Love this! Soft and beautiful. Can't get enough smelling myself LOL! Definitely the EDP is the best. For whatever reason the EDT has a sharpness about it that I simply cannot tolerate. Also, it is true that the Penhaligons Artemisia does smell strikingly like Cashmere Mist. The only difference is the PA gives me a massive headache. For the money, stick with the CM.

Like a beautiful sunset, this is a scent I never tire of experiencing. I know when a woman is wearing this; her entire being becomes an aura of sublime beauty. As I stated previously, it is the apotheosis of pure femininity. Staggeringly serene, ravishingly innocent and as sexy as a women’s fragrance can legally be.

This is beyond exquisite!! The classiest perfume ever. It's so romantic, Makes you think of that romantic movie castig richard gere and wynona rider. It opens up with the softest powdery suede floral. The white floral is so soft and quite ofcourse. The Jasmin comes from my country, no wonder 🤣

This ended up becoming my signature scent just because I kept reaching for it without even realising it. It's so soothing, calming and comforting for me. It reminds me of a warm cozy white sweater you put on when you need some comfort. Perfect for any occasion and very non offensive.

So fresh, so clean and so comforting. Nothing stands out in this scent but the purest softness. I dont understand how you can not like this. For me its feminine and elegant in every possible way. Silage i moderate, longevity is great. Fluffy as a clean cottonball

Why nobody have noticed similarity with Sensai "The silk"?. They are really much alike! This lovely and addictive soft cashmere tint. Cashmere by DNKY has really oriental vibe, Japanese vibe. The only fragrance from DKNY which I like.

I think this one got discontinued. I got a bottle a few moths ago and now I can't find it anywhere. So glad I got it just in time. I really love it and I don't give a damn if this is marketed for woman. I adore wearing it.

I love this classy, soft throwback! This is comforting like curling up w/ a blanket in front of a fire. It's soft but strong. On me the sandalwood and vanilla come out. Non offensive but not non existent.

Very feminine...soft...powdery. Sandalwood,suede with jasmine, and lily..A tiny tough of bergamot, add a little vanilla and you have a very feminine classic. Warm, comforting. I like this.

This was my signature scent when I was pregnant with my son. I like the edt better than the edp. Even though I dont wear it much anymore I will always have a bottle just for the memories.

Its a great scent to wear for casual everyday. Its very light, so its best if you rub in the body lotion then spray on the perfume on top the lotion so the alcohol is locked in better

I just love this sent during the winter. It reminds me of the smell of the wood in a sauna. The wood smell warm even if the sauna isn't on. Warm wood and warm skin.

I avoided this fragrance for years. I finally tried it,,,I love it. Soft and warm. Good for everyday wear.

It's a peaceful scent you want to sleep in, and die in. I just wish it had less vanilla.

I prefer the edp. The edt is more Jasmine heavy.

Exquisite, nostalgic, and classy!

I believe cashmere mist is a classic and it's a shame how difficult to find it is here.I searched for it for a long time and finally I got a 30mil of it in a swap.I'm very glad to have it;on the other hand,I know that I'm not going to need another bottle.I don't love it,but It's a "like" for sure. It reminds other fragranticans of penhaligon arthemisia.me too.but cashmere mist is more woody,less floral and I prefer it because it lacks the plastic violet of arthemisia I'm not a fan of woody scents but cashmere is a rare woody note that I can tolerate and even like it.suede-musk-sandalwood-jasmine combo in cashmere mist reminds me lacoste pour femme.they're not dupes but they belong to same league. Cashmere mist is warm,smooth,cozy and clean.I doubt that -25 girls of nowadays would appreciate it. For me,it's wearable year round but if I have to name best season for wearing cashmere mist I'd say fall.it's a very office-appropriate fragrance.it has a refined,polite,simple but also classy,modest but also smart,serious but also kind personality and I agree that it's sort of motherly.while being a great office scent,it can also be used as a casual or formal daily or evening perfume.it's soft and non-pretentious so I won't choose it for a party but it can be nice for a date at home,inviting,comforting and trustable All in all I like it,both it's character and it's soft and subtle woody-powdery scent.I believe I have a lot of perfumes in this genre,though they don't smell exactly the same,they make me feel the same and I use all of them in similar occasions:cashmere mist,lacoste pour femme,blumarine bellisimia intense,beyonce rise and Elizabeth arden 5th avenue after five(after it's first weird 10 minute).so I'm sure that this 1 oz bottle of cashmere mist would be enough for me. Longevity is good on my skin.well,I expected it to be even better as most musky,woody scents last like a skin scent on me for ages but I have to be fair and not expect every scent to last more than a day.sillage is moderate at first,then it stays close to skin for most of it's life By the way,it's not a white scent in my imaginations.sometimes I feel it's beige and sometimes a light taupe

Cashmere Mist was my gateway perfume ... one month ago. My introduction to smelling like something *intentionally*. I've loved and savored the lingering fragrance of certain soaps (...and then there's the sweet Proustian thing that happens with the aroma of suntan lotion or sunscreen on a beach scarf... ) I ended up purchasing this after asking a coworker what warm, musky, powdery thing she was wearing...it seemed delicious. First impression: Not so delicious on me. I could smell alcohol and baby powder...then, a bit of "that moment you walk into Bloomingdales" (floral, fresh, a little harsh, genus and species hard to distinguish). I clearly have an unsophisticated nose...I noted layers in the scent as it evolved and evaporated over several hours. I was somewhat disappointed; it seemed that, on me, this is - pretty generic. Applied it again. This time, I began to find its wafting layers inviting...friendly, vital, pleasant, and - once it hit vanilla - cuddly and comforting. AND THEN. On the third try... Something shifted, and it became entrancing. Made me feel happy! Was I just brainwashed by a fragrance?! So...some days it smells good to me, and is moreover a great *comfort* scent; some days, not really. However: it brought me into the world of scent - and that's a wonderful thing. *Now* I'm developing a fragrance 'bucket list'.

Does anyone know if this has gone through reformulations? I have tried this a few times throughout the years and never liked it at all. I recently received a vintage bottle and like it a great deal. Last night, nothing else would do. I am starting to think the fragrance has simply grown on me rather than it being a different version than before. I normally prefer much louder fragrances like Guerlains, Knowing.... Orientals and Chypres. I do love woody musks, too, but normally they are bold and strong. This scent is so delicate and pristine. I detect nothing synthetic on my skin. It is powdery which I also used to hate. I'm quite surprised at how much I like this now, after disliking it so much before. Wearing this feels like wrapping up in a soft blanket on a comfortably cool night. I may even purchase a full bottle if this keeps up. I'm finding the more perfumes I try and the more times I try something I typically wouldn't prefer, the more my tastes are expanding. Perhaps, it's similar to feeding my young toddlers every variety of food so to develop an appreciation for all types of foods and flavors. I'm enjoying my perfume journey to the fullest!

Oddly the first thing I smelled as I was applying this was alcohol. That disappeared immediately though and was replaced with a lovely musky floral. Interestingly I immediately thought of the Helena Rubinstein Heaven Scent I wore when I was in middle school that I loved so much. This feels like my grown up version of that very soft feminine scent. Here I get all musky/jasmine/vanilla with a little woody leather. No lily or bergamot at all. The dry down is a little sweet - the vanilla really seems to start coming through a bit more. This is a very very pretty fragrance. Very subtle, very feminine, very unobtrusive. Normally, these very subtle scents vanish on me almost instantly, but this one is lingering in a lovely way. I think this perfume would be appropriate on any age in almost any daytime situation. It would be perfect for the office since it's so soft and sits so close to the skin. I would wear this around the house on a daily basis. It just makes me feel pretty. I will probably consider adding this to my collection with a regular sized bottle after my mini is gone. My husband really likes it and gives it an 8.5.

I usually go for the sweets but I wanted this & received as a gift not too long ago . First thing I thought when I smelled this was that it smells very lady like . The first spray is very sharp but then calms down real quick , becomes very creamy , like a lotion , at the same time it has that “ clean” note as well , so to me this is one of those right after a bath smells ; a little soapy , creamy , yet warm , cozy . All that being said , I have found just one squirt of this works best on me , reason being that suede note gets too severe & harsh for my tastes - it’s funny because to me this can go from lady who smells really pretty to almost a smell like Bath & Body Works Japanese Cherry Blossom mixed with a lit cigarette , not something I find appealing at all . I find this classy yet casual . Cozy but not a vanilla & amber bomb at all . I can see how this can be taken as a “ grown up “ scent . I will add that this is a scent that doesn’t seem to be found offensive to others at all , as long as it’s just that one little spray .

I have to say sometimes the perfume pick you and not the other way around. I had a sample of this and everyone around me loves this stuff on me. My DH who doesnt notice any of my fragrance collection is head over heels for cashmere mist. Myself however,its not quite love. It feels like a nice friend you go out to lunch with once a month to catch up but not the 1st person you run to whether it be good news or bad. The fragrance on skin: -jasmine -vanilla -creamy/sweet/oily -woody and powdry -leathery YES>>>> This fragrance developement is endless on me, and while those phases are interesting I find the vanilla note too cloying. Its like a super sweet nosy granny next door that you can't hate but can't stand. **Lasting power is GREAT! one spray on the wrist last until the next shower and sometimes even lingers after the shower. I did two spray, one on each wrist and was getting comments from most that walked by.

Nice. Pleasant. Comforting in a safe generic-type sense. Doesn't come off as "cheap" at all and you're getting a lot for the price; but nothing profound going on here. Actually I can see a number of folks being put off by it. First, some will certainly find it cloying. Second, it's a little too work-friendly. A bit too professional. Work-appropriate scents are fine only when taken so far. Frankly it could use more character. Less Stepford-Wife, more quirk. But you know what- I'll give it to Cashmere Mist- It's potent, which is a big plus! Be forewarned: this is not a wimpy perfume (as is the case so much these days). If you like picks that perform well, this one's for you Honey. Not for everyone but worth trying. Like I said: generic, but generic done well.

If anyone has an unloved bottle of this to swap, please PM me! I've got a sample and I'm in love! I currently have Cashmere in my left wrist and Liquid Cashmere in my right. Both have the same vibe: soft, feminine, comforting. The notes are the same, but they come out at different times (according to the votes here anyway). I wouldn't call either sexy; the girl who wears them is the girl next door, demure, feminine, not a come-hither sex kitten. Or perhaps she is a loving mom. (Yes, I imagine wearing scents like this the day I become a mom.) The differences are subtle to me. Cashmere is warmer and more powdery, Liquid C is cooler. Frankly, I love both, cannot decide which I like best. I would be happy with either, but I wouldn't need 2 bottles.

a very nice fragrance. i get a lot of musky woody suede. its creamy and powdery. i can understand the baby powder as sometimes i get that, but most of the times i get more wood notes. on me it smells a tad dated but i think its a safe daytime winter perfume. could wear it definitely to work even business professional, though maybe a little too weak if you are high in the company. i think for a little older too like 30+. i feel like its missing something that would elevate it. i wont buy this because its not really me, but if someone gifted it to me i would use it and keep it.

Here we go again with the "old lady" and "elderly" comments. It's getting tiresome and it's disrespectful. Body chemistry plays a big role in whether any perfume smells good on you. It doesn't mean its meant for a different age category. This is a dry, warm scent that mixes well with my natural skin scent. It's woody, but cozy on me and I like it in the cooler months. Someone mentioned the cozy feeling of a robe straight out of the dryer- good analogy, I'd say! Draws compliments. p.s. for the record, I think my elderly grandparents smell very tolerable, even beautiful :)
