Love Generation Fashion Victim

I purchased a full bottle online off of ebay for cheap blindly after reading the reviews on this website. At first spray i get a heavy Burst of citrus, Very sharp and spicy Ginger and green notes very fresh and while not being masculine it isnt sweet, demure or very feminen, Kind of reminds me a this french cologne my ex used to wear, just bold Green Heady citrus! HOWEVER after about three minutes after it absorbs and the excess drys, i Got the most mellow sweetness of peach wrapped in watery jasmine! The citrus and ginger persisted but instead of owning the potion or overpowering over notes; they Balanced the other notes, Adding contrast and not allowing the peach and jasmine to much leeway of being powdery or childish, i stress the word "Contrast" as they really brought out the best in each other! about 45 minutes later the scent matured into a sweeter creamier scent. Not cheap or too young but simply sweeter. The vanilla and sandlewood gave the top and middle notes a beautiful base! very creamy and again contrasting. To me, there is nothing cheap or linear to this fragrance Like julia, I also smell a soft and nutty almond nestled in there giving just a bit of complexity and softness. The musk is also mellow and only adds to this creation but doesnt show it up! In summary Im so glad i purchased this frangrance as the cooler weather is coming and i wanted to buy something different from my normal summertime fruity florals LOL and this nailed it on the head, i havent smelled burberry brit in a few years but from what i remember it wasnt this good! I work as a nurses assistant and sprayed some on my wrists and chest before work after testing and being sure i could pull of this perfume, although i didnt smell it 2 hours later i held off on spraying it trying to avoid that citrusy smell until after lunch. I bumped into one of my patients (a 92 year old man with dimentia) who seldom notices what time of day it is, but after passing me he remarked about the beautiful smell, i laughed and directed him to smell my wrist and he showed a bright grin and said it was the most beautiful thing he had ever smelled!! My only complaint is the cheap looking packaging and the gaudy name but honestly im not wearing the bottle im wearing the perfume so ill just have to hide this in my underwear drawer lol

As Nelken has described - a spicy cookie version of Burberry Brit, I do agree. Even more - a peach with a vanilla sauce, sparked with ginger, spritz of juicy orange and topped with a lightly jasmined whipped crème :) Oriental floral, complete with sandalwood - with a gourmand edge - Yes Nelken ! I could almost compare with JS Fancy Love, but this does not have the champagne fizz nor the heavier creamy, indolent jasmine lushness. I had sampled Burberry Brit, and Burberry Weekend prior before blind buying this, based on the reviews and the 'version of' talk. To me, it is very well blended. The vanilla, ginger, and sandalwood being the most prominent notes, with citrus ( orange ) and jasmine undertones. The ginger really perks up the fragrance - without the ginger, it would have come off as being somewhat bland. I can pick up pear with a more calculated sniff, and a bare amount of grapefruit. It does not have an over the top citrus, and does not have the usual fruity-floral vibe. A small amount of powder from the musk. Grown up, without an overly 'mature' scent of powder. I would think that oriental lovers would like this if they would like to try a touch of gourmand, and gourmand lovers - vice versa. I have not worn all that often, I even listed it as a "Basic B*tch " scent in a thread, but now that I have pulled out and sprayed , it is not too basic at all. It has some power behind it, a nice longevity and a moderate silage . Comforting, sexy, pleasing. I would wear this during all seasons. Cuddly enough for autumn, holidays, and winter, can see as being delicious on a summer tanned warm skin - especially on a summer evening. I must have forgotten why I purchased it, and now will keep on a front burner. Yes, the bottle is not tell tale at all. It has a tad of cheapie to it, but now that I am discovering how much I really do love this fragrance, I can learn to love the bottle as well . It`ll be our secret what it truly holds. I may never see a Burberry Brit price tag ;)

This is smooth, lovely vanilla, soft woods, with a snap of ginger- a mellow beauty. Yes it does smell like Burberry Brit EDT as others have mentioned, however this one was a bit sweeter and mellow with a less spicy ginger and less citrus than the Brit, and for me, more wearable. Brit is loud on me and this is soft. Also, here there is a sweeter orange instead of lime. This is soothing and yummy- a feel-good perfume! Very likeable with medium low longevity. I have loved all the Jeanne Arthes perfumes I have tried in my mini set. A cozy sweet one for casual wear if you don't really need it to last.

Ok I love it. I tried several Jeanne Arthes perfume at shop. Mostly sweet and girly smell. This one with warm vanilla note, musk and sandalwood. Bit powdery, classic and comforting. Not too sweet, sexy lady smell. Even the bottle looks teenage type, the smell is classy. It doesn't smell cheap at all. Lasting power it is way better than expected for the price. Much better than Jeanne Jeanne that I have. I will return to the shop for purchase.

Love it.. To me it is a Vanilla Oriental. Other then a short burst of fruit at the opening, it is a heavy warm vanilla, musk and sandalwood.. There may be a touch of floral buried in it but I dont get any grapefruit which is perfect for me. With decent sillage and lasting power it is way better than expected for the price.. It doesnt smell cheap at all to me. I would definately repurchase.
