Brilliant White Diamonds

This perfume has begun to grow on me. I got a fantastic deal on a huge bottle (ordinarily I don't care too much what the bottle looks like but I do find this one quite pretty) but at first whiff, it had a bit of a synthetic feel to me. I wasn't giving it a fair chance though, I only kept smelling it without applying it thinking it wouldn't suit the occasion (whatever it happened to be). After applying it however, it actually could be an everyday office, to running errands to even a date night evening fragrance and seems to mix well with my chemistry and works just as well on my clothes. After the initial first spray, the synthetic I was detecting fades away very quickly and it becomes a nice soft, fresh and clean, light floral citrusy scent that I personally find any age appropriate despite other reviews I have read (although I still have yet to find or feel any fragrance is only geared to ONE specific age group). For daytime use, one spritz is enough and it has lasting power, for a bit more of a seductive noticeable scent, perhaps two to three sprays would suffice as the sillage seems to remain the same and definitely is inoffensive. This is my first Elizabeth Taylor perfume (and it was a blind buy so I'm glad I have now given it a fair chance) but it also has honestly surprised me too. I have tested others in the past and they have all been far too strong and just unappealing due to their strength and overall "overdone" impression they have given me. Even though not overly complex, I find it to have the right mixture and do think citrus should be followed by white floral in the notes description as it would be more accurate imo.

Fresh and clean, without being "soapy" or powdery, which I would love if it were. But there's something so classy and beautiful about this scent. White floral all the way.. I can't pinpoint musk, but perhaps it blends so well I'm not noticing it as much. My dad's gf says I smell like lilacs, which is lovely because they're one of my favourite flower scents, however, I smell peonies and white roses on top of the other white florals. Very surprised to see there are no peonies in the notes. It's not very intense, doesn't leave much of a trail, and perfect for spring but seems to shine bright in the heat of summer. If you love white florals, this is a must have. I paid 20$ for 100ml at SDM and hope I can find white diamonds one day for the same price as from what others say, it is more up my alley. It's currently summer here and I'm enjoying wearing this every day. It's especially nice after a shower. I've been layering it over Avon's Haiku lotion as that adds the powdery notes I feel this one is missing (for me). I spray abundantly and respray often as it tends to fade quickly on me and it's so gentle I can't see this offending anyone. Would rate this as office friendly. The bottle is STUNNING and as Adriana Aroma mentions below, they don't mess around with the atomizer! It's likely the most efficient mister of all my perfumes. Wish they all sprayed like this gorgeous bottle! Think I'd like to always have this darling in my collection. I'm typically a fan of edp strong perfumes I can smell after returning to a room I've been in, but surprisingly, I love this one!

Brilliant white diamonds is definitely the most different out of the three (white diamonds, sparkling white, and brilliant) When I first spray it it's weird. But don't let that yet you because it's only for literally a second. It immediately starts to warm up and smells like flowers.I would say out of the three it has the least amount of the powdery smell. After its had a few minutes it starts to smell like citrus. Then it moves onto the honeysuckle smell, which is surprisingly nice. Its not anywhere as strong as the other two, definitely easier on the head. It's much more light and playful. Probably my favorite of the three. It maintains the citrus smell for a while and doesn't really change after that.

its the first ever perfume i remember falling in love with.. a friend of mine had received it as a gift and i had sprayed a little on..instant love! this was 15 yrs ago..i havent worn it since and havent been able to find it in stores..finally found it on Amazon! waiting for it to be delivered to India!! hope i still like it! fingers crossed! Edit: its here! and i love it! :) strong sillage and lasts long on skin, longer on clothes (14hrs for me). too much can be cloying . wish i could smell more mandarin orange though. On me its mostly tuberose.still..great to know that i still love it.

This would be absolutely delightful if it wasn't for those chemically aldehydes. The aldehydes just run over the gorgeous notes that make it fresh pretty and juicy. Im trying to find a way to love this and appreciate the aldehydes. In the heat this resembles jlo glow but glow is better. I keep sniffing my hand to enjoy the beautiful notes but each time i have to get past the headache inducing chemical aldehydes. This would be a love but its only a like cuz of the heavy chemicals (aldehydes).
