Cashmere Mist Liquid Nude

Donna Karan Cashmere Mist Liquid Nude is discontinued, but I had it years ago and loved it. I was so excited to discover that the more recently produced Donna Karan Cashmere Aura is a very close dupe of the Liquid Nude, and might even be a straight reissue. It's THAT similar. Cashmere Aura is also sadly discontinued but can still be found pretty easily on the secondary market. WARNING: The more recently produced Donna Cashmere Liquid Cashmere has an identical bottle to the Cashmere Mist Liquid Nude but is NOT at all the same fragrance! Liquid Cashmere is floral floral floral... A similar fragrance to Cashmere Mist Liquid Nude is Estee Lauder Sensuous Nude, and it's still in production. Annoying that these Cashmere Mist flankers have such similar names - makes it easy to make a mistake - but I've double checked and I was careful to use the right names here. I hope this review helps others!

I have had this for a while and never really paid much attention to it! Today I pulled it out and I am loving this, it’s fresh clean and light for summer. I will be wearing this all summer the longevity is ok and the sillage is also ok. I get the cyclamen, jasmine and the Labdanum. Ylang Ylang does show up once it dries down. Soft floral with a woody base. So pretty and different from all the newer releases of today. Highly recommended 10/10 going to be using this a lot!

I looove this scent. For me it is warm and fuzzy, and a single spray lasts all day. I cant get enough vanilla, amber, sandalwood and floral mixtures so I am definitely this scent's target audience. I enjoy cashmere mist for the longevity, and fluffy musk. Liquid nude kicks it up a notch into serious comfort scent territory.

I'll call this a "like" with mixed feelings, but it's not for me. It smells really nice after about 4 or 5 hours--the harsh chemical/floral note that dominates it from the beginning has faded drastically by then. It does not seem to be as powdery as Cashmere Mist (although my CM sample was not a good indicator). I guess it's the sandalwood I smell mostly by the end, with a little jasmine and suede. I like where it ends, but it shouldn't take so long to get there. If you were to take the sandalwood and suede (and cashmere wood from the first one), and add the touch of jasmine that is left, and add it all to JLo's My Glow, that would be a wonderful perfume. That's what I was hoping Liquid Nude would be, but it wasn't.

Orange blossom and lily floral opening. Lush. Then, I get nothing. Nude for sure. Literally nothing here. An ultra light musk.
