5th Avenue Pulse

I fell in love with this cheapie, this is an affordable hidden gem! Juicy sweet blackcurrant, sweet floral heart and amber coffee base. It's lovely and so feminine! The tuberose doesn't smell bubble gummy to me, it's more of a clean and sweet kind. It doesn't remind me of Good Girl, I can't bare its synthetic base. To my nose this smells more expensive and natural than that one. Which is funny because I got this 75 ml for 12,55€ on sale. But let me tell you this so sexy I would wear this to a date no question. It's not too strong, but it's addictive sweet florals and fresh coffee notes linger around you for hours. I don't have problems with the longevity but the sillage is more on the intimate side. I honestly don't mind that, it makes it more classy. Update: Finally this is actually quite strong in terms of longevity and projection. How they done the tuberose is starting to really bother me because it's a bit shampoo like and extremely sweet. It is strange that the flower that supposed to give a little freshness and cleanliness is the sweetest component out of all. I am not so sure about this perfume anymore. Sweet lovers it's your turn! Edit: Hehe just joking I love this actually🤡❤️🤡❤️🤡❤️🤡

I'm a big fan of Elizabeth Arden perfumes: I grew up with Sunflowers and Green Tea, which were, and are, affordable and widely available. EA's perfumes sometimes perform better than more expensive, premium scents, and smell just as good. I was intrigued by the note profile of this perfume, and blind bought it, and it is a definite win. This is still going strong nearly 7 hrs after I sprayed it - I don't really get the blackcurrant and pepper - on me this is a sweet coffee, tonka bean floral (some of the sweetness is from the tuberose, but not overwhelmingly so). Not as sweet as Black Opium, but along those lines.n The bottle is enormous and, because it was put in the clearance section at my local store, I bought a back up for half the price of the original.

The fragrance opens with delightfully luscious blackcurrant, adding a burst of joyful energy. Quite quickly, it intertwines with sweet coffee. Enriched by smooth florals, all these notes create a sparkling, pleasurable composition that brings great joy in wearing. The shimmering red reflections on the label and box resonate beautifully with the character of this flanker. It captivates me and ranks among my favorite 5th Avenue editions.

It’s really nice. Warm, elegant and feminine. I find it very magnetic and attractive.

I love fruity and moody scents. Think plum, pink pepper, and wilted flowers... This wants to be that, but it's too much of a people-pleaser. It's inoffensive pleasantness (white florals 🙄) keeps it from what it could be... I bought this excited to wear it, but now I think I only liked it because I was comparing it to sugary/lighter scents in the store. On my shelf, and compared to my favoured kinds of perfumes, it's unremarkable. I'm maybe being to harsh. I like it. I overspray it to keep the lovely top notes noticable longer (they settle firmly in my hair but fade into mostly tonka bean on my skin) and because I'm not concerned with making the bottle last long. It's an anyday (but not everyday) scent. Suitable for exciting events such as grocery shopping or commuting to work.
