Sunflowers Morning Gardens

A stunningly beautiul floral woody musk. I see many describing it as a summer perfume. It certainly does work in summer. But to me, it perfectly captures the optimistic, enegetic vibe of the very beginning of autumn, when nights begin to get cool enough for a blanket and you can pull out your scarves. Maybe not the heavy pashminas, but the transitional cotton ones, anyway. The sunflower note of late summer/early fall gets deepened by the cedar, musk, and vetiver, keeping the happy feeling but grounding it and giving it more oomph and once again, demonstrating that price is not the same as value. If you like autumn, this super-affordable gem is a good addition to your fall collection. It deserves a place of respect on your shelf along with the intense, darker goumands, orientals, and chypres, that smell so good when the weather cools down.

I've just tried it today. At first I was trying the new version of Brit Sheer (I've already known that it's the same juice, just a new bottle). And the the SA suggested that Arden Sunflowers Morning Gardens has the same vibe. Yes! they are almost smell the same. So if you like or get familiar with Brit Sheer (bright, uplifting,cheerful scent), then you will love this with much cheaper. It doesn't smell cheap, it's very lovely, making up the feeling of the gandens in the morning as the name suggests.

Such a yummy floral bergamot! A hint of almost spice? woodsyness? from the bergamot but the whole thing wears so smooth and well blended. The perfect citrus floral I was looking for and it cost me so little!!

Просто прекрасен ..... ако беше и траен,цена нямаше да има :)

My first EA fragrance was Sunflowers followed by the original 5th Avenue. The EA Sunflowers Morning Gardens is a sunny, floral, citrusy, fragrance that is perfect for summer. It lasts for about 2-3 hours, with moderate sillage. The initial blast is quite strong and has the capacity to be overwhelming if you use a heavy hand with it. The dry-down is soft and warm. I used this fragrance during cold weather and loved how it performed, considering that the day was gloomy and cold. I sometimes use floral scents to lift my mood in cold weather, especially on the days where there is no sunlight at all. That being said, I don't see myself reaching for this again until the Spring/Summer of 2018. For those who haven't tried EA fragrances, I strongly recommend that you test them, or buy a mini, so you can see how the fragrance performs in different weather, and throughout the day. These scents do not work with all body chemistries. If they don't work on your skin but you love them, just spray them on your top and you'll be fine. I don't see myself repurchasing this fragrance once it's done, but I'm so glad I purchased/tried it!

I don't find this one so fresh... but a cozy floral based on woody rose with honeyed jasmine and peony. It smells happy, uplifting, sunny, feminine and elegant. So well done, without a single disturbing note, even though it's simple and not the most original perfume. It makes me think of the classic young lady wearing a summer white dress, or the smart girl next door having a walk and sitting under a tree to read a book. It reminds me a little bit of Eternity Moment or Ma Vie- Hugo Boss, which is more sophisticated and smells more like roses and less like peony, but less long-lasting than SMG.

I've only just tried it, and just a little spray on my wrist, but the first impression was: wonderful, sunny, happy fragrance. After few minutes however it turned into a shampoo. A very nice, fruity shampoo, so if you want a nice light fragrance for the morning (as indicated by the name ;) ) to smell as if you've just got out of the shower, that's the one. Very pleasent, even if a little bit too shower-gel-like. I might actually buy it for the summer, since the price is really agreeable.

Maybe the lightest of the Sunflowers flankers...a light, citrus floral this time with a hint of grapefruit...definitely the softest of the bunch...quite lovely...

This one starts out strong on the rose and as it dries down the rose is still the main star, but it seems like it's not as potentiate with the rose as when it is first sprayed. It smells like a mix of rose and grapefruit and I'm not a big fan of the smell of rose but this honestly doesn't bother me. I feel like the rose and grapefruit go together well.

I suppose I could like this perfume if only peony was not there! However it would still be a mediocre scent.

I was lucky to receive this as a gift. I smelled it blindly at first not thinking about the notes and let my mind wander. This does smell like walking through a garden at dawn as the sun is coming up. I had a flashback of going into the public gardens near my hometown of Charleston when I was little and my mother would be allowed to go in there as she was a caretaker. I remember how the way the warm sun felt on my skin and how flowers seem to be most fragrant in the morning. I also love how they threw in a recreated sunflower scent which the 1st Sun Flowers did not have. At the first spritz, you get a citrusy scent. It's bergamot neroli and grapefruit. So if you like citrus that's how it begins. Pure, fresh, sweet and refreshing citrus, reminds me of drinking OJ in the morning. When the citrusy smells disappear, you're left with flowery scents of rose, peony and sunflower. It smells very floral and a tad oily, mature I guess, but not bad. Sweet flowers and an additional honeysuckle. Divine. The dry down is a cedar wood. It's such a beautiful fragrance and I wish they had not discontinued it.

Smells very "pink" to me. I get no sunflower at all--definitely rose and peony with an underlying fruity freshness. I thought I smelled litchi or quince but I don't see it present in the notes. It's very pretty, but not very original. I can name several scents that smell similar: Gucci Envy Me, Burberry Brit Sheer, BeBe Bebe, Dream Angels Blush/Kiss (minus the mint note) that came circa 2013. It's a very happy, bright and comforting scent, it's just too similar to other scents I already own.

Fresh summery, it gives me a feeling of freshness and bliss... I feel a lot of a citrus and slightly floral accord, for me it is excellent for summer, good sillage without being intrusive, a beautiful perfume that takes its place among the most famous commercial perfumes in vogue in this period, in fact you can see that it is a recent creation and the great thing is that on many sites you can find it at a bargain price, for me it is perfect like this

Quite like this one, it's fresh and fairly long-lasting, say 2-3 hours, but there is a note reminiscent of hair-spray/Avon's nastier efforts, that I don't love. It might be the slightly acrid scent of sunflowers, or maybe the cedar. Not a bad buy as an everyday summer fragrance - it's not too anything, floral or fruity or green or musky or citrus, just a harmless blend of all those notes.

By far the most green and woody in the Sunflowers line that I've tried. This one is very soft and light. This is not musky in my opinion and doesn't last long on my skin I'd say 2-3 hours. This has more in common with the original Sunflowers than with Dream Petals or Summer Bloom in the same line.

It's a nice clean scent. Great for summer and hot days.the problem,it smells like a lot of the 'summer'perfumes that are sold today. Nothing really special about it. I personally love the first sunflower.for me it was and still is the best most unique one out of all the sunflower collection.

Wow, this is one beautiful bouquet of both fresh and sweet flowers. This is in same vein as Pleasures by Estee Lauder and Burberry's Brit sheer. I absolutely adore this. I will report on the longevity when I wear it to the office on Monday.

Hm,weird!This flanker contains sunflower note, while the actual Sunflower by Elizabeth Arden,does not!!I want to try it and come back with a review .
