Jason Wu

This perfume was a delightful surprise find for me I loved the bottle and I loved the scent at first sniff I think with just one wearing that I can say this will become the scent of this summer for me . It is a cool refreshing scent it has a calming motivating aspect to it is a minimalist fragrance of simplicity but it is not boring it has a multifaceted movement about it .It calls me on a visceral level as if it would journey along side me and it would bring out the best in me but at all levels a quiet cool energising walk in early morning a busy elegant graceful day a calm relaxing creative evening The fragrance is very subtle becomes a part of you while wearing it no-one noticed I was wearing it today until they hugged me and then they commented they loved it but I was aware of it all day The ingredients are quality and the price is worth it I found the jasmine and LOTV dominated during the day and then musk in the evening It lasted well I can still smell it as a skin scent and I have been wearing it for 10 hours now .It is so popular among my friends they have all been borrowing it .My daughter has been wearing it to work . When I bought it, it came in a 100ml and a 30 ml pack .I gave the thirty ml to one of my friends who loved it so much and she couldn't afford a bottle she was so happy she cried

In my own preference I love it. Is very fresh and slightly fruity, this Is what my personal nose perceives. At first I smell something citrusy and now I know that is from the bergamot that is not listed here. I feel that it has a similarity (not comparable) to Omnia Coral of Bvlgari on it’s aroma but is not Identical neither is similar, is just what my nose perceives. (I don’t say is a dupe or that have the same dna, is was the first thing that came to my mind when I smelled it; about 3 minutes of being on my skin) I also find it some similarity to Burberry Touch because of the pepper, but Jason Wu is more light and less complex than that one, and here I feel is more light and simple. But this fragrance starts off a bit strong, later in it diminishes in strength and becomes more accentuated on the skin. Like “skin, but better”. At first the pepper is quite noticeable, but after a few minutes the fig and florals softens the pepper note. It feels just a bit powdery or soapy and in my skin sits very clean, fruity and floral. For me is perfect for spring and summer.

I blind purchased this bottle at a deep discount from JCPenney Beauty. It honestly appeared slept on, and I wish now that I’d purchased more than one bottle. I was leaving a review for Gucci Memoire, which is supposed to invoke memories, and admitted that although great, it’s not nostalgic for me. In fact, the scent that gives me inexplicable nostalgia is Jason Wu EDP. Not that I even knew about this scent or could have worn it back then, but something about it brings me back to circa 2009, living in Portland and working as a fashion intern and for Nordstrom. I saw a comparison to Burberry Touch, which was a popular scent sold back then, and also comparison to Aerin Lauder scents, which were also a mainstay during that time. It has almost a lemongrass vibe (which I know isn’t a listed note). Link pepper, peony, and fig are always hits for me. The longevity is good. If I spray before work, I can still smell it toward the end of the day. Projection is moderate unless you spray too much.

This is such a lovely fragrance! If you're a fan of jasmine, this smells amazing and just intoxicating! Very long lasting for a floral fragrance and has a similar vibe to Chloe EDP, like a cousin almost with the powdery laundry detergent feel. Lasting power is great for a floral, it lasts quite well on clothes and lingers. Reminds me of my childhood, growing up smelling my neighbors jasmine growing on the wall which is the exact description that inspired Mr. Jason Wu to create this fragrance, reminding him of the jasmine he smelled growing up in Taiwan.

Just like the bottle, the scent is simple, clean and elegant. Very understated, yet beautiful. I immediately get the jasmine from opening to the ending, peony dancing in and out. The pink pepper is really just enough to keep it from being too soft, giving it a kind of fresh, soapy element. It's an extremely familiar scent, though I don't know where I've experienced it before... maybe from an actual soap or deodorant? Except this is more round than sharp and leaves kind of an elegant breeze behind. It's Avon's Haiku with more jasmine. Love it.

This perfume is pleasant and uplifting. On me; this scent is fresh, floral and almost citrus like.The pepper is barely there, and theres a slight sharpness to this. It's a light scent but the projection is excellent. This is one of the few freshies that don't turn into a peppery mess on my skin.

Gorgeous bottle. Such a green white floral. The fig and pink pepper register to my nose as green grass or peppery green leaves. Beautifully blended, and I love the musky dry-down. Not at all what I would expect for something categorized as a white floral.

I first encountered Jason Wu passing the fragrances, making my way through to Aesop when the shop assistant pulled me aside to promote the new fragrance. The story behind it is beautiful: jasmine from his childhood in Taiwan. The bottle being sensual and feminine but simple reflects his own clothing line and who it caters to i.e. refined sophisticated woman. The part where she talked about the velvety matte packaging of the box representing the warmth of his mother's hug completely lost me, but I'm sure his mother was a very supportive person and a big influence in his work. I happily accepted the sample. Nothing really makes this fragrance stand out. It's the generic designer smell. The perfect gift of a fragrance if you don't know much about who you're buying it for. Of course, if you love it, there's no shame in that either. If you wore this in the office, I don't think your fragrance will offend anyone. Moderate sillage and longevity. The jasmine is not the star of the show but it's there and the musk is heavy, as far as my skin chemistry is concerned, perhaps a bit too much for the muggy summer weather.

Summer and warm spring days. Perfect for the office or any place where you wouldn’t want to offend. Silage is as light as it gets with a surprisingly moderate to long longevity. Very light, fresh floral. Top: Fig with a touch of pink pepper that keeps it grounded from being a sweet accord. Heart: Floral Peony and some fresh Lily-of-the-valley, I can’t detect any jasmine. Base: The base seems to only serve for longevity purposes, light wood and I guess some musk will appear later on but I have to directly smell my wrist to notice anything different. Overall: This is a fresh peony fragrance that would be perfect for anyone that dislikes musk. 3/5 Similar perfumes of lesser quality have a tendency to go soapy or powder after the first hour. This is not a complement getter because this isn’t a perfume designed to be that noticeable, it’s plain, inoffensive, pleasant, and fine. This is a good neutral perfume, which means it’s not that much fun to buy or wear. And that’s okay, because we need those, but I was expecting more.

Yes, I too saw this at Marshall's, 30 ml for $17 and couldn't resist trying it. The bottle is beautiful! Very elegant, modern and feminine. The scent is quite lovely and I agree with all posters below who experience a light, fresh, elegant white floral. I also pick up a beautiful peony with a touch of green tea at the opening. I will wear this in spring and summer for sure. Of fragrances in my collection, this most reminds me of Gucci Bamboo - a very wearable and mass-appealing white floral that isn't heavy and thick. (And for the record, I love heavy white florals, even more so than the lighter ones like this!) I know my teenage daughter will like this too. For my money, this is a nice bottle for a lovely, can't-go-wrong floral. If all this sounds boring to you, then you will probably be bored with it! But if light, fresh, tea, jasmine, peony and springtime sound good to you, then I think it's definitely worth seeking it out!

This perfume has a strong Aerin lauder stamp, it is pretty, classy, but I find it hard to describe as it is overall without much personality...pretty? Yes, the floral notes are smooth and soft, the fig gives a bit of a bite, but it is short lived..the drydown is almost a bit sweet. it has a bit of Ralph Lauren Woman...in truth it has a lot in common with lots of pretty florals out there...longevity isn't great, and there is no development really in that scent...it isn't sharp, and rather timeless..I don't think anybody could dislike it, but if you like scents with punch, this might be too quiet for you...it kind of is for my taste..I know Wu wasn't looking for a powerhouse scent...it isn't, it is delicate, and shy, but well done..still what is the point of making such a quiet perfume I wonder ?! I will wear it more, might grow on me !!

I enjoy this affordable fragrance. To me it smells like a sweeter version of Aerin Ikat Jasmine. Although I like to think I lived a past life in the Mediterranean region, I'm not very familiar with the scent of fig... I hope the fruity scent of this fragrance is a good approximation. But yes, this perfume has a very creamy, sweet floral accord to my nose. I get less of the other listed notes, such as musk, peony and lily-of-the-valley. I get zero red pepper. To me it's simply a lovely, slightly fruity Jasmine sambac. 🦋🧡🦋

This is a beautiful white floral and what you would expect from the description! However, it has something a little bit special - that pink pepper really comes through and sharpens the fragrance. It's still soft and creamy, as many white floral fragrances are, but that softness is cut a bit with the peppery goodness. So I would call this a white floral with some edge. Really lovely, as I typically like perfumes with something unique about them!

This is ridiculously cheap for what it is. TJMax had it for like $15. This is the same price as most body sprays. If you feel a little rebellious and want to stray (slightly) from typical department store glass pink bottles, try this one out. Fig, some green freshness and pepper make it a good starter to get into more nuance fragrances. You could easily layer if you wanted to lean more floral or fruity.

A nice white floral with a dash of pink pepper . Not to strong even if you happened to over spray. I found it on a great sale price , but don't feel it is worth a higher price tag . Reminds me a bit of Gucci Envy me. Silage and longevity slightly weak but overall not a bad scent for the right price.

Looove the packaging. Luxurious looking but the scent is just too much for me, almost alcoholic. Not sure if it’s worth the price since it kinda smells similar to your drugstore shelf cologne.

I bought a little bottle of this on ebay because the notes are so me, and also, I love the bottle. It makes me happy to look at it. And I did really like the scent, which is initially green tea-ish (it reminded me of Elie Tahari, which is excellent and can be had for cheap, check it out!). Then it quickly turns into a salty figginess soooort of like Thierry Mugler's Womanity ... but then it's gone, poof, just the faintest remnants of a muskiness. It's almost like that pencil-shaving smell I get with cedar notes sometimes. Maybe it's my scent-eating skin? Anyway, foiled again. It's so delicate, I may use it for a room spray.

I get a sharp pink pepper wrapped in Lilly. I get no jasmine at all. Just that sharp pink pepper smell. It does give a fresh and green scent. I can also see it being a slightly unisex fragrance. The scent itself doesn’t change much. It’s an ok perfume. I like white florals, but this isn’t something I would really reach for.

This fragrance smells like it has nothing but unripened green fruits, which is good but overly done, according to what I like. This frag is somewhat similar to Miu Miu original, though Miu Miu is softened with sweet fruits and some fresh florals.

The notes look amazing. This perfume is so light that I really can't smell it. Performs like a scented laundry detergent. If you are looking for a beautiful fig scent try Illusione for Her Bottega Veneta.
