White for Her

WHITE MUSK & Amber-VANILLA-(Woods). Opens with a short & sweet burst mandarin, that deepens into a fruity-floral heart of orchid, iris & plum with powdery, floral, iris, violet, fruity, sweet & clean touches, all resting on a musky amber-vanilla base with near-woody tones. The combination of notes here, gives an impression of white-musk & amber-vanilla, that's more complex than vanilla-musk with near-woody facets. Over time, a faint but pleasant doll's head note is detectable. Average performance for a light wearing experience, with no sharp edges. Although this could be worn year-round, it performs better in warmer weather. Contrast to Twilight Woods Bath & Body Works: These are different, but there are similarities. Twilight Woods has a sweeter opening and more obviously vanilla-woods facet. Roughly equivalent performance. Contrast to Twilight Mist Body Fantasies: These are different, but again similarities. TM has a more forward candy-like note over vanilla-woods, with above average performance for a body spray, although White For Her KC outperforms and has a more forward white-musk facet. Contrast to Viva La Juicy Juicy Couture: These are different, but there are similarities with fluffy, sweet gourmand vibes. VLJ has more of a golden sweetness and is sweeter and less musky, while White For Her has a fluffy, softer, near-woody sweetness. Viva La Juicy outperforms. Overall: Beautiful, soft & sweet scent profile, with average performance. This is the perfect scent to wear before Labour Day. It's a love for me. Enjoy!

This is indeed affordable and delicious. I'm a little confused how this hasn't received more attention. I've seen the list of perfumes this reminds people of, but all I smell is Guess Seductive Noir through the heart of this perfume. I've also seen a lot of people struggle with longevity. This, as a fiber scent, will be lusciously detectable the next morning. With the heat of the skin, it tends to fade faster. And I have also found, that long after I can smell this on my skin, others receive it, and compliment its loveliness. Since the beginning is so similar to Seductive Noir, I almost feel deflated in reviewing notes and structures, and I quite prefer the dry down better that the scent itself, for those exact reasons. Vanilla, amber and musk take the lead, although the pyramid isn't featured here. Soft, powdery iris is the predominant floral note, supported gently with freesia and plum. Base notes offer orchid, lily of the valley and mandarin, imparting a sweet, slightly fruity soapiness. Other sites offer up further components, inferring there is a fruit basket of ingredients, and even vetiver and cotton candy in the base. Perhaps this is true. Still, these are the shining notes I noticed. White is worth the price, maybe even the redundancy, if like me, you have already purchased Guess. I enjoy wearing this when early morning rain seems to slow or soften the day's tempo; or late at night, when the challenging day wishes to consume a gentle night's sleep.

I bought this on July 4th 2015. My Husband and I went shopping in an outlet mall long before it was time to watch the fireworks. I hadn't anything particular in mind for myself, as he was on the hunt for Givenchy PI. The woman asked me my preferences, presented me with Kenneth Cole Black and White, with the bonus travel bag for a good discounted price. Tried both, Husband approved, we rang up. I've been wearing this on and off for 3 years now, and I feel like its a pretty unique scent. Its clean, sweet, but also alluring. The plum in the top adds a tasty sensual vibe, the Iris is very dominant to me in the middle, with the LOTV adding sweetness and the freesia and the orchid adding a bit of floral spice. The base is sweet with the vanilla and amber, but the iris still adds its depth. The musk keeps the sexy vibe going. I really love to wear this in the summer but I've also used it in other seasons. I get plenty of compliments when I wear this, and my Husband loves it! I noticed he and I both like Iris in a perfume, with a sweet amber vanilla base even better! I honestly don't smell this on anyone else, but I noticed a lot of gift sets around the holidays and they are making in a body spray as well so hopefully others are discovering this gem! Plus its been out a few years now, no need to journey to the depths of the outlet malls to get a good deal!

First I bought the body spray and loved it. There is a similarity to Jessica Simpson Signature. To me it's Kenneth Cole White's obnoxious cousin in comparison. I loved the body spray so much that I bought the edp. The edp is less similar to JS Signature I think because the amber comes through more in the edp. I usually don't like vanilla fragrances for the same reason I didn't drink tequila for 15 years. Overdo something and it just might haunt you forever. Vanilla Fields turns my stomach the same way Jose Cuervo does. Anyway, the vanilla is blended well with the sweet, powdery, amber, muskiness. It's not overdone and it doesn't overwhelm the other notes. White is slightly on the stronger side but not a bomb. I'm on hour four and the vanilla is shining through. I bought the edp without testing it. I had only tried the body spray. I'm very happy with it and glad I got the 100ml bottle.

It has cooled down from 98 to 76 degrees today and I love this on my skin! I do not get the viva la juicy vibe that some seem to dislike. I get the feeling of cuddling up wearing a loose super soft cashmere cardigan and snacking on soft sugar powdery sugar cookies maybe essenced with plum if you could make an extract out of it like vanilla. I was looking for affordable layering combinations to go with Versace Crystal Noir and other deeper plum perfumes as the tops notes in that one fade too quickly for me. This one I can easily reach for alone or paired. I am not sure if this would stand up in the harsh cold, but I will see soon! I wore this to the office as well where the AC is blaring and could smell myself all day which is rare for me. (I sprayed 8 sprays) If I get the craving for fuzzy coziness, for sure will choose this!
