You need to test this one on skin and away from the neck and nose. My favorite place to wear this would be on the back of my hands and my wrists. It is much too strong for anywhere closer to my nose. It's one of those perfumes where you can't really pinpoint what you're smelling and where but you get the white floral bouquet and a cold tonic made of strawberry and tangerine sweet tea.., depending on your skin you either get more of the florals or more of the fruitiness. On me, this translates to what I picture as static. Neither here nor there in terms of florals and fruits. The Heliotrope hovers and the white woods aim to anchor. This is strange. It's as if it transports you to another time when things were easier..and when I was naive and new to being on my own, navigating the world as a young adult...if you're a millennial like i am, then youll get what i am saying. Most dearest to my heart, oddly enough, for $50 This takes me all the way back to 2010, the night I met my husband. I was 18, not looking for love and yet stumbled upon the love of my life. This reminds me of the feeling of being carefree-- enjoying the night scene, nightlife, friends, the smell of different perfumes mixing in the air. It smells so very familiar, nostalgic, something from my youth...and yet not like anything I can put my finger on. When you feel like it starts to smell "dated" the addiction of sniffing and thinking replays until you think you know where you've smelt this before...and then in an instant it's gone. Not the scent tho- this is a powerhouse. 2 sprits and you're asking for trouble. 3 sprits and you're begging for mercy. It is unrelentless but I don't mind. It grew on me for sure. The blend of this is interesting and interactive. I dunno , I think I'm overthinking it but it definitely smells like nostalgia and the whims of love at first sight. It takes me back to the moment we locked eyes. Butterflies and instant connection. I find myself craving to interpret this. I want to master this scent but it won't let me. I'll admire this and be thankful for the experience. This 100ml bottle will last me a really long time because I cannot get away with anything over 2 sprays. What a surprise. I really appreciate this one. I know it's not that deep, but in a nutshell this, to me, smells like being young, having fun, living life to the fullest, going to the events, spending all night getting ready and arriving to the bar at 11pm with your friends, nostalgia and falling in love.

Oh my my,what an amazing scent for such an affordable price,it's beyond my expectations! I love white florals,tuberose and lily are my beloved ones but I mostly need a fruity note to balance their heavy indolic creaminess to turn them to a wearable fragrance for me In jimmy choo flash there IS this balance,there is a fruity note,a non synthetic strawberry,that stands besides soft spiced white floral cream and adds youthfulness and freshness to this warm cashmer florals,flash is feminine and gorgeously delicious...I can mostly pickup strawberry,tuberose,heliotrope and vanilla..it's very strange that vanilla isn't listed as a note,maybe heliotrope is tricking my nose and playing the role of a soft powdered vanilla?! I can feel pink pepper just in the opening,and I'm not a fan of it but drydown is truly Devine,creamy white florals,sparkly strawberry,soft powdered heliotrope,I can't get enough of it I'm going to use it in Summer nights,also spring and fall,day or night and winter days,it's a 4season perfume and better be used in mild weather.I can't see resemblances between this and hp,just creaminess and soft delicious powder in both of them but overall they are very different to my nose Staying power is very good,more than 6 hours with recognizable projection,I looove my gorgeous 2 Oz bottle ❤❤❤❤ It's been in my collection for a long time and I don't know why, but I never reached for it. recently I rediscovered it and I like it so much that I'm changing my rating from like to love. there's no vanilla note listed but it's as if it has a strong, gorgeous vanilla base. It's like a love child of Dsquared2 Want(has the same pink pepper+heliotrope) and D&G The One l'eau (it has the same amazing lily note and to my nose the most dominant floral note in Flash is lily). but it's even better than both of them. it smells yummy and clean at the same time. three hours after spraying it, as soon my husband entered the house he said: it smells so good in here. like ice cream and flowers If you like D&G The One l'eau and Dsquared Want make sure to try Jimmy choo Flash

It's Trashy, It's Sassy, it's.... FLASHY ! You want a Beast Mode White Floral then this is your BEAST ! This juice is not for the faint of heart, it's had a few reformulations but the sillage hasn't. I think earlier versions are more clear and sparkling in the notes, it's balanced in it's Flash! This newer one is a bit screechy but the DNA is still there. I quite like Flash when I am wearing a very short puff skirt, slim silver Azaelea Wang heels, silver anklet with tiny seashells and diamantes.... puffy sleeved fitted top and my hair slicked back in a tight pony tail, tonnes of black eyeliner. Dainty but dangling tiny star silver earrings. This juice brings the men, ladies, oh they cometh! They may not be be the Big Cahunas but plenty of men there will be ! I was followed by a builder around my Sainsbury's Local in Colemore Row last Summer and he said I smelt exceptional - I smiled and ran. One spray... just one spray people, go beyond that and you'll get blinded by the Flash Lights ! You've been warned... oh it's tempting to want to keep spraying but you need to keep this beast in check, you can't smell it on the first spray, it's true you literally can't smell how big this is going to be but it's FLASH AND FLASHIER after 10 minutes and it keeps pumping out lile a faulty fire hydrant. Whiplashed like a Triffid on Acid ! They named it well.. FLASH, yes, BLIND ME WITH YOUR JUICE, BABY !

I currently have my second bottle of Flash 60ML EDP. Well, this perfume is distinct. It is a scent that you can easily fall victim to adoring. As I am on my second bottle. The perfume itself is a light lavender colour in a studded cube bottle topped with a crystal shaped lid. The bottle doesn't really do it for me, but the perfume itself is fascinating. The scent itself is probably one of the most distinct, exiting, recognisable fragrances I've owned. It lives up to its name as the scent comes in a flash, all ingredients blending together almost smelling like honey with an exiting twist of fruit. This perfume is definitely suited to evening wear. Perfect for nights out partying. It is the finishing touch to any party outfit. The scent is strong and may be able to be picked up a few feet away. I used to bring it on nights out with me reapplying in club bathrooms. It always managed to allure the males and females too-with girls asking to have some on their wrists in the bathroom from me. It is easily becoming nostalgic for those nights out. It is a youthful fragrance. The longevity is immense. It can be strongly picked up the following day. Overall 10/10.

WOW! So glad I gave this a shot, it is so much different from what I remember at the store years ago. On me, I get zero fruitiness, no strawberry at all. It opens up with a powdery pink pepper. After about fifteen minutes, it becomes a woody, powdery, tuberose! I actually get a lot of woodiness from this, sort of like pencil shavings. It has a creaminess about it, but also remains fairly sharp for about a half hour after applying. In all honesty, I think this would have sold much better, if put into a different bottle. The color of the juice, along with the bottle design, imply a more immature, playful image. Had it been sold in a simpler bottle design, maybe similar to Narciso Rodriguez, it might have gotten a wider audience of a bit older age group. The perfumer of this scent is also the one responsible for NR, and I can definitely smell and feel a signature musky presence in this as well. Don't let the bottle design put you off. But be advised, don't let the fruits in this be your guide to if you think you will like it. If you do not enjoy tuberose, steer clear of this one.

Does it really smell like an old-fashioned camera flashbulb as the name and bottle shape suggests? Maybe a little at first. It feels like a bit of genius to me to even somewhat capture that scent. The overall presence of this perfume is soapy. It has a floaty, powdery floral presence with a bit of fizzy pink pepper. Plus, you get an occasional whiff of sharp strawberry, but not enough to consider it to be a fruity perfume. I love how the tuberose, white lily, and jasmine mix together to be something completely new rather than smelling like any of those notes individually. I'm not always a fan of white florals, but here it's pretty and soft rather than overpowering. This fragrance does have some sillage. So, people are going to smell you even with a couple of sprays, which is not something I usually want to happen, but I don't think it's going to be offensive to anyone because it's soapy. I got this on a whim when ordering some specific samples and am glad I did because it's one I definitely want for my collection as an easy grab when I want something clean and fresh.

On my skin this a sweet, sparkling floral. It opens up with pink pepper and synthetic, juicy fruit. The initial spray is a little bit too sharp, but it quickly settles as the white floral notes become more prominent. I think the tuberose and jasmine are the strongest floral notes in this fragrance, combined with a hint of pepper and some sweetness from the fruit. On my skin the floral notes become more balanced as the fragrance wears on. The dry down is woody, although a hint of sparkling, fruit-sweetened white flowers still remains. The sillage and longevity are good (although that may vary depending on the person and the weather). The bottle isn't spectacular, but I do like it. This fragrance actually reminds me of Radiance by Britney Spears, except Radiance is more creamy while Flash has a sparkling, peppery element to it. Overall I like this perfume and I think it can be worn by anyone in their 20s and beyond, at any time of the day.

Springtime is approaching and I somehow feel the need to HAVE a new perfume. So many new releases all the time, so many to crave and want! The crazy thing, is that I look and look, but somehow end up not feeling the need to buy, because I am kind of stuck on Flash. Normally, I get bored with a scent after a while. I cannot remember the last time (if any) that I have actually emptied a bottle! But something about Flash keeps me grabbing for it. It is sweet, but not in a gourmand kind of way. It is floral, but not in a dryer sheet kind of way. It seems musky, even though none is listed as being present in the composition. It's not listed on their website anymore, I don't know if it's being discontinued, but I bought five back up bottles of this juice! Yes, five. I just find it easy to wear, inoffensive, yet it has just enough "strangeness" to keep it interesting and not too mainstream. I really DO love this!

A beautiful scent with a heady tuberose,pink pepper,strawberry and woody is which I detect. It has a unique scent,very sparkly,and feminine,it is one of those fragrances which has a softness,but still commands power. I was pleasently surprised! If you are looking for a different kind of floral that isn't screechy this is perfect, as the tuberose is tamed by the strawberry and the notes of wood with the sparkly pink pepper make it an unusual floral,with depth and character. The heliotrope makes this a powdery scent,but not soapy, I hate soapy scents. It is soft,because the white florals and fruit shine,creating long longevity,and projection of around a metre in the first 2 hours then it becomes a bubble around you. This scent is graceful,has charm,and is for those that are afraid of l'oral scents....it has that Jimmy choo stamp on it,which is why it is a favourite of mine.

At first I was like "what?! Why would anyone compare this to Alien? They're just both sweetish, white floral perfumes - that's it." However, I find if I spray heavy and allow the opening of Flash to linger a little more, it is quite similar to other sweetish jasmine/white floral perfumes I've come across including Alien (and Burberry London but still not a dupe). I also admit it Flash has a hint of the peppery woodyness Alien does but not as prominent. Eventually, Flash dries down much sweeter, almost like bubblegum. I only get strawberry when I put my nose to the nozzle too, none on my skin. I suppose if for whatever reason you want something with the same vibe as Alien but not as strong or a direct dupe, then this is a good shout. I agree with someone below who said it's Jimmy Choo's take on Alien; it's a sweet, woody, spicy jasmine perfume but not an imitation.

Jimmy Choo shoes can kiss my a** BUT this FLASH fragrance has seen the better of it ! I love this nice and and pleasant scent from this designer. It was a true blind buy indeed. One day I was shopping at Macy's and stumbled accross this nice periwinkle-blue chubby chubby square bottle with a flat round top. It was cheap too ! Why not ? This fragrance is not very sweet, something one can wear everyday. I got an instant compliment the day I wore it for the first time. The lady at the coffee shop said, "You smell excellent !" I was like "Oh wow !" in my head. Next on my list is the red bottle. Forgive me if I can't recall the name but I will review it once I get a hold ! Flash by Jimmy Choo is very promising even for the young at heart. I recommend it for day wear. It can be worn even among crowds, it is not over powering even if it is long-lasting.

A friend of mine at work has this and its lovely when she walks past. It lasts most of the day yet doesn't feel overpowering. I bought it for myself after finding that Prada Candy L'eau didn't work on my skin and wanted something to alternate from P.C. Florale. I have to admit that I can't really describe it well, it does seem to vary wildly depending on folks skin from the reviews. I think maybe a cooler weather one, the sweeter notes could be quite cloying. I would either wear it on my wrists or a light spray down on my torso (I suppose I should suggest the pulse point at the backs of the knees but I mostly wear jeans), too spicy for cleavage and you don't get the lighter notes that sit further out. I probably wouldn't spray it on my neck for the same reason.

strawberry + pepper + tuberose + jasmine = WOW! I like this better than the original Jimmy Choo, (shocking!) because it is unusual and has a distinctiveness about it. It is a little sharp at the opening, but the entrance of the strawberry later on makes up for it. It is not overly sweet, and I feel a zingy ZIP of energy from the pepper. I am a tuberose girl (most of the time) and I love it here. On my skin this is much more floral than fruity. I think the bottle is adorable like a 1970's flashbulb, very clever. I am looking forward to trying out the London Club version. I like this scent very much, it is a unique addition to my collection. Sillage - 7/10 Longevity - 7/10 overall- 7/10

This is my favorite perfume and has been since I smelled it in a magazine months ago. I have had people follow me in public places like the mall and at work to ask what I am wearing and where they can find it. It perks me up, I guess because I like the scent so much, maybe? I do not really detect the comparison to Hypnotic Poison which I also love to wear every now and then. It smells spicy as pink pepper then has a partial powder dry down mixed with something ethereal, that's the perfect word that comes to mind. It is not the celebrity sweet vanilla scents that are everywhere either which I also love to wear. Flash is like it's name, FLASH!

Of all my Jimmy Choo Fragrances, I would call this the Party, Fun, Fragrance with the Biggest Character. You need to have a certain type of personality for this one. I use to love this so much but a colleague started wearing this and I would smell it from the car park before getting into the building (I think perhaps she might be an over sprayer). Anyway, it smells really good but it is not for the faint hearted. It has depth, it has presence, fantastic sillage and longevity. I still wear it and I enjoy it, this is my 2nd bottle. It's a good one!!

My secret affair... I went out, set on purchasing Jimmy Choo Jimmy Choo, but when I tested it I was horrified! The sales lady suggested I try Flash. Oh my word!!! It was love at first sniff. I can't get enough of this gorgeous juice. It's sweet peppery strawberry, beautiful for any occassion. I like changing it up every day, but I wear Flash at least 3 times a week. I am absolutely addicted! If this should ever be discontinued, I would be at a loss. I will buy a bottle of this every second month, just to be sure that I never run out

I blind bought this perfume with my PrettyPennies from Escentual, and it was practically free. I loved the sound of the notes and was really surprised to see the negative reviews as I scrolled. My perfume arrived today and I was nervous to spray! Thankfully, I love this scent. To me it’s a very sweet, white floral perfume. I find no resemblance at all to Hypnotic Poison, but I DO smell a very slight similarity to Alien. Seems pretty long lasting, and not too over powering. Overall, a positive blind buy for me!

I just adore this perfume. This is one of the first real perfumes I've ever owned. Now after experiencing and obtaining many scents from indi to niche And designer, i still find this perfume beautiful, fun, and flirty. It opens with pink pepper and strawberry. It smells similar to "sweet tarts" hard candy. It's fizzy and sweet. 10 minutes later sweet heady tuberose and bubblegum jasmine come out. It's a little musky , very fizzy and bubblegum. The longevity and sillage is amazing. It's a yummy perfume.

I got this perfume as a gift when I was 16 and I wore it religiously until I lost it. I recently found it again and I am in love again. It's such a unique scent and it lasts so long. I love perfumes that everyone can smell and it's so nice on me that I wear this for everyday. It's refreshing for me since it's different from the extremely fruity perfume I usually wear. This perfume is always on deal somewhere so you can get it for a good price. This is a perfect blind buy or as a gift because it's nice

I LOVE THIS FRAGRANCE! The first time I tried this I thought 'Oh wow, that's actually really nice!' it was only maybe a week later that I bought a 60 ml bottle after having a sample. I think it is fairly unusual. A floral fragrance I think, with top notes as nice as the base notes. Which stick around forever; most of my coats and jackets smell of it. Definitely a favourite, that I think I will replace when I run out of; I think I would miss it too much!
