Wow! for Women

Beautiful, smooth, but quite soft lipstick type of rose with not extremely jammy or powdery raspberry, yet it is definitely into niche side of rose and patch, you can name at least 10 similar ones, silage is very average though, not so much of a projection as well. To me it is definitely without "Wow" factor, but still very decent fragrance from Joop! I do not able to detect any rhubarb in it at all, but loving the rose. It is like a mixture from few different roses and patchouli is fresh and chocolaty By mood it is secretive, dusky, introvert fragrance, not as seductive as Mila with white panther in advert, but not as dull and synthetic as many others around. 6 out of 10.

JOOP! WOW! for Women opens with a striking pour of rich red wine and tart fruits, but the true headliner here is a velvety, jammy rose that feels beautifully dark and opulent. As it develops, I love how it leans into a distinct, chocolate-profile patchouli, supported by a subtle, deep musk. This has easily earned a spot in my bedtime rotation, though it will definitely come out to play on crisp fall evenings. Just be aware that because it’s an EDT, the projection is modest—however, as a cozy skin scent, it has incredible staying power that lingers comfortably until the morning

OH WOW... Wild Raspberry, Rhubarb, and Rose Infusion/Red Rose Absolute? Take my money now! I can't wait to test this beaut. I'm really digging the ad, the commercial, the deep burgundy coloured bottle, and Milla Jovovich as the front woman of this. I loved the rhubarb note in Salvatore Ferragamo's "Amo", hoping I'll like it in this one too. My zodiac sign is LEO, so everything about this just fits me to a "T", hopefully this will be my new signature scent. I can just tell this is going to be one BADASS perfume... ROAAAARRR!

Bought this by mistake thinking it was "pour homme", and I'm glad I did. The "male" version is solid, safe and to be honest, boring. This, on the other hand, is bold, luscious, softly sour, dark, rosy, chocolatey and beautiful. It's also great layered with archetypal "male" fragrances. The effect is a bit like a big hairy guy sneaking home and trying on a fancy negligee... Nothing wrong with that, and there's certainly nothing wrong with enjoying gorgeous perfume, regardless of whichever gender it's aimed at.

i lovelovelovelovelove this perfume so much! my neighour gifted it to me and it ran out in just a month! i got my refill as a christmas present and it's still an all time favourite. don't let the rose and raspberry fool you, this is certainly not a sweet and sugary fragrance. it's woody, spicy with 'sweet' hints of a nice jammy rose. it's very spicy and warm. could be masculine or feminine if im being honest! it's a flawless autumn scent with good longevity and decent projection

SWEET ROSE ______________________________________________________ I was quite disappointed by the Male WOW and I didn't care much about the female version - but I fell for the ad campaign and I'm glad I did. It opens very a very strong rose, which turns into a sweet rose very fast. The candy-like rose stays strong for quite a while - and I love it. Longevity: - 10/10 Sillage: - 9/10 All in all: 10 out of 10 subjective points -> because i love a sweet-rose fragrance

This is really a Wow! Fragrance and is longlasting as well.

Similar to Moonlight Patchouli from Van Cleef

A delicious strong rosy balsamic wonder!

If you love and adore sexy, spicy rose fragrances, then Wow! is for you. I have to admit, I love the smell of fresh roses in a bouquet, but I'm not partial to the *actual* smell of them in perfumes. I don't mind a hint of it every now and then, but rose dominated perfumes are just not for me. However, surprisingly, this perfume grew on me. The opening blast is a very strong floral, but it becomes sweet and jammy, mingling with the other notes. Raspberry and rhubarb add a tart sweetness, making it cloying to some, but adding some much needed depth and an almost gourmand edge. I found myself sniffing my wrists and my opinion shifting. It was such a strong dislike at first, but now I actually quite like it. I love the whole packaging and advertising for this perfume. If money wasn't an object, I'd buy Wow! for that gorgeous bottle alone. However, as much as this scent grew on me, it's not going on my "I need this in my life" list. I think the right woman could pull this perfume off and be the most badass femme fatale, but unfortunately, that woman isn't me. I like my little sample and will use it up, but I doubt I'll ever purchase a bottle for myself.

Beautiful, vibrant fragrance. Dark, red juicy rose that gives off that feeling like you could just squeeze it and feel the thick, sweet juice dripping down your hand lol Definitely for a strong, independent woman (or at least will make you feel like one ;)) This is my vibe. So, I was too disappointed when I saw it was discontinued. If you were too, I'll share my dupe with you. I'm seeing this perfume is now compared the most to Guilty Absolute Pour Femme by Gucci. I have both and would not totally agree. Better option - in my opinion - is Velvet & Oud by Jenny Glow, not listed here on Fragrantica. She is mostly making Jo Malone dupes, which I know is off putting for some people (given the extreme similarity in smell and bottle designs), but this time I couldn't care less. Jenny Glow has some high quality and cheap fragrances. The one mentioned before is the closest to Joop! Wow! For Her. It has the same tangy, dark rose vibe and it's not too woody like Guilty Absolute is. The only thing different is that there is no noticeable patchouli note. So if you miss Wow!, you might wanna look for Velvet & Oud.

I stumbled upon the fragrantica page for this fragrance after liking the deep scarlet colour of the bottle and ended up testing it instore. The fragrance does open with a bit of a boozy burst (as previously mentioned) but settles down quite quickly into a beautiful, yummy, slightly effervescent scent. It reminds me a little of non-alcoholic wine, Maison. Saying that though, I find that the sweetness of the rose, rhubarb and raspberry (very apparent) is anchored nicely by the patchouli and white musk. There is something very clean and almost powdery here. This is not sickly-sweet lollie water. Pleasantly surprised by this frag, I very nearly wrote it off as the name (to me) sounds cheap. I look forward to purchasing this soon and seeing how it wears.

On paper I should love this perfume. Berries, rose, patchouli, get in! Its not sweetie gourmand, its not bitter, there are no notes I dislike. But I just don't love it. Its a scratchy perfume, thin and vinegary and prickly, not thick and velvety (see lveb en rose, 5th Avenue Royale and Montana 80 /crystal noir). Its also not strong at all on me, closer to rosewater and like berries after they have been left to infuse water. I will try again in autumn / winter,it may be a bit more robust in cold weather. ----------- It's been upgraded to a like, because it makes a decent 'going to bed' scent. Soft rosy patch, hint of fruit. It is still a pale thin scent but that works nicely for bedtime.

As a patchouli hater through and through this scent actually wowed me! I tested it only because of Milla and the funny TVC. The blend is velvety, rich and niche like indeed. And the patchouli gives the other notes just a nice depth, a darkness, without any BO or bitterness that I found in all of those Angels, Flowerbombs, LVEBs, Black Opiums... the list is endless. I even think of getting it. Color fits nicely. It's also more pleasant than Velours by Bottega Veneta, where the patchouli is screetchy. It's a leathery scent, even crossing the border to something like Tuscan Leather, hello! The name is funny though...

to me this is slightly sticky raspberry, rose, patchouli and musk. it doesn't evolve a huge amount - the dry down is red fruit and rose/patchouli dark purple vibe, with a bit of cotton candy. if you like Ricci Ricci and Stella and you're ok with fruity sweetness, then you might like this. to me it's great for the price (i paid £20 for 40ml) but it's not particularly special and i wish it was balanced by a woody note to counteract the close-to-cloying sweetness.

Blind buy after a friend of mine recommended it a few months back, and I don't regret it one bit, it's been in my daily rotation since :) I tend to be a little sceptical towards rosy perfume, but this one is right up my alley. It's not a very "fresh" scent, the raspberry and rhubarb notes make it rather "jammy". Reminds me of pączki filling lol The only thing I wish for is that it lasted longer on my skin :(

This is a fantastic Rose. It really does smell of red roses. Great projection. Reminds me of the rose used in ELDO Spice Must Flow, but this one isn’t spicy. They both have the dusty red rose feel, although they’re both very different interpretations of the same rose. Great projection. All round brilliant Rose scent.

A gorgeous, sophisticated scent suited to a bold woman who knows what she wants. Gutted to have learnt that this has been discontinued. Shame as it performs well and in my opinion is a good and affordable contender to some of the Tom Ford perfumes.

Definitely has a presence. A big fruity chypre like Gucci Rush but instead of being all about peaches and patchouli, Wow is about rosy raspberries and patchouli. If you enjoy fruitchoulis this is an easy blind buy.

Yes. A big big yes from me. Velvety, jammy rose and as others have said for fans of Elle, Midnight Poison and the likes. Not the same, mind you, but a member of this family. A great offering from Joop!
