Wild Berries

I agree with many others on this page that the name "Wild Berries" was a bad choice for this synthetic riot of a scent; as someone else has hinted at, "Violet-flavoured bubblicious with a little musk thrown in" would have been more apt (although admittedly less seductive). Still, once I'm over the disorientation brought on by the discrepancy between the name-based expectations and the reality of the fragrance, I have to say I kind of like it - I love the idea of violet bubblicious! I get why this isn't one of Keiko Mecheri's more popular scents, and I'll probably never use up my own little decant, but still: points for fun and originality, if not for naming skills.

Starlight_Angel is absolutely right - this is berries, berries, berries all the way down. Keiko Mecheri describe this as a fresh fruity and I think that's accurate. The berries, although sweetly fruity, aren't sickly or thick in the way that Byredo's Pulp is. There's no trace of rotting fruit here, nothing heavy or stifling. There is a slightly woody note as it dries down, but nothing so strong that it ruins those gorgeous berries :-D I love this perfume, I think it's so pretty, so light, so joyful. If I were to wear a fruity perfume this would be right at the top of the list I think!

When I tried this perfume I thought it would be like Lalique Amethyst or something similar. Unfortunately this is not as good. There are blackberry, black currant and raspberry notes in it but they smell a little plastic and too sweet. The packaging is elegant and the perfume itself was on the prissy side of the department store, so I was hoping something more exquisite. It's not the worst perfume ever, I guess I would wear it. Just not the most original one.

This perfume is one of the proofs thatniche and expensive does not always have to be great, exciting and... well... niche. If I found this one in any regular perfume store under the label of lets say Paris Hilton or another of the countless celebrities whose perfume flood the market, I would not be surprised. Wild Berries are all about a cloying, super sweet bubblegum, end of story. It has unfortunately a lasting power above average, and the synthetic bubblegum note lasts and lasts on me. It is not very pleasant, neither it is refined and definitely it is one of the worst creations from the house. For the price of 10/15 dollars, it would make a nice gift for a little girl, for what it is priced, you seriously have to love bubblegums to buy it :)

Sadly, this is the worst berry perfume I have ever smelled. This perfume is synthetic and unpleasant; honestly, this smells nothing like berries in real life--and it doesn't even resemble the sweet, commonly used berry notes of other perfumes! This perfume smells identical to the pink soap that comes bubbling out of the soap brush at a self-serve car wash, and that's not even an exaggeration.
