Liz Claiborne Bora Bora is such a beautiful, strong, aquatic floral. The only thing it has in common with Dior J'Adore, however -- to my nose, at least -- is that both are aquatic florals. Well, and they were both blended by Calice Becker. They certainly share the cool, fresh, pale, luminous quality characteristic of aquatic florals. If Bora Bora resembles anything, it is is actually Coach EDT, the one in the small, rectangular bottle with the Coach emblem and fake silver Coach tags. Both perfumes have a prominent water lily note, plus the most beautiful fresh, shampoo-ey feel. But even this comparison is a stretch; Coach EDT is sweeter than Bora Bora, with jasmine and guava, while maybe it's the ginger in Bora Bora that cuts the sweetness...? Because of the ginger, I tried it next to Hermes Twilly, but that ginger-tuberose combo is SO strong on the ginger that I had to put that with my ginger perfumes. Bora Bora, on the other hand, has just a touch of ginger, along with a ton of water lily, and good dose of tuberose. But, in spite of being a tuberose scent, Bora Bora really is, most of all, an aquatic floral. Incidentally, it has really good longevity (especially for a cheapie), lasting for a good 7-8 hours. The perfumer, Calice Becker has also produced such masterpieces as Estee Lauder Beyond Paradise and J'Adore, Donna Karan Gold (an interesting salty lily!), Narciso Rodriguez Fleur Musc for Her, Tom Ford Velvet Orchid (plush!), Tommy Hilfiger Tommy Girl (nice floral tea scent), Oscar de la Renta Coralina (cool violets!) and Oscar Flor (fresh tropical fruits!), Versace Dylan Blue (apple shampoo!), Avon Dreamlife (osmanthus!) and Far Away Gold (ylang ylang!), CK Secret Obsession (interesting plum + nutmeg!), as well as a bunch of Kilian. Truly a master perfumer!

I blind-bought Bora Bora based on reviews and notes and have no regrets. I didn't initially care for it but I've come to love the tuberose note. I'm a fan of orchid, mandarin orange, and orange blossom notes, so purchasing this frag was a no-brainer. It's such a lovely clean, somewhat sweet, and floral fragrance that's perfect for Spring and Summer daytime wear. The ginger and sandalwood temper this fragrance down and stop it from becoming overly sweet. It opens with strong fruity florals but it doesn't take long for the scent to settle. The tuberose note is noticeable in the dry down. In terms of wearability, the only way I'd wear this to an office space where I may encounter people who are sensitive to fragrances is if I use an extremely light hand on my pulse-points but not my neck/décolletage. I may dab a little behind my ears, but that's it. This fragrance packs quite a punch and has good longevity and sillage, so using a heavy hand will induce a headache for you and those around you. When it comes to hot, summer weather, I plan to wear this in the evening when it's cooler, but not during the day. It has the potential to become cloying since it's strong and has sweet florals plus the tuberose. So I prefer it for Spring, cooler summer evenings, and warm-ish fall days. Unless you hate tuberose, it's a safe blind buy and you get a lot of product for the price point. I can see this being a repurchase once I'm done with my flanker.

Because I only re-entered the world of fragrance about a year ago, I knew nothing about Bora Bora. I bought bc a YTer had it in her Summer list & it is heavy on the tuberose. That required a lil more research, it made several ppl’s list, so I bit. Bora Bora is such an easy reach on a hot Summer day, it does so good in our humidity. Even though I had seen/read that is was a good one, I was still pleasantly surprised by this one. This is fresh yet warm. It is watery without being watered down, bc it projects pretty dang good. It is not heavy on florals except the tuberose. The tuberose is not bubble gummy, it with the sandalwood provide a soft creaminess. Mixed with the ginger, you get that warmness. All the while the water lily & mandarin keep it refreshing at the same time. This loves the sunlight as I do, it makes Bora wake up and shout. I am very pleased with my purchase. The performance is not beast mode, but it is really good for the price. I don’t have the think about grabbing this bc it performs so well in our heat. Now, it would be a waste of perfume to wear out in cool/cold weather, it will disappear. I can see the comparison to J’adore, but not a dupe. This is a good everyday, warm weather, day out, to the gym, or to work fragrance. Not complicated, just a simply nice easy fragrance. 10/10

Bora Bora was a surprising blind buy. I almost expected this to smell dated because of the bottle but to me this is kind of a timeless, clean sunscreen, white floral. It smells tropical, like a beautiful floral, tropical shampoo without being “coconut.” There’s something in the dry down of this after about three hours that gets a little vanilla candle- ish, but I’m not mad at that. I just recognize it as the same base note sent that diamonds and emeralds by E.T. has. I love that one too but they are different enough to own both. This one is more of a white floral blend where you really get sort of a gentle jasmine-tuberose, and diamonds and emeralds strongly features the gardenia! I even looked up the perfumer and noticed it’s Calice Becker, and then tried to compare to see if they had the same perfumer but there’s no listing for diamonds and emeralds. I wouldn’t be surprised if they were made by the same perfume company if not the same nose. Anyway, this is really mood lifting— a pleasing, fresh, creamy floral well blended for anybody who’s into that like I am. The great daytime perfume but I think I’d actually like to wear this to bed. It also reminds me of Tease by Paris Hilton and J’adore.

I am giving this post an edit because this has become my most used perfume. This is such a beautiful, fresh scent! It has mandarin orange in it but I don’t smell that at all here. This does not smell citrusy at all to me, and definitely not tropical or beachy as some have described. I do think it’s more floral and maybe a bit powdery, but overall, very clean, soft, pretty and feminine. Sometimes I enjoy spraying this on myself before bed. It’s one of those type of calming scents. Longevity-wise, I don’t think it’s all that fantastic, but for the price it’s acceptable. My only issue with this is the cap. As others have said, it’s awful. Very cheap plastic that’s a pain to put back on. Still worth it, though. I paid $15 for a large bottle of this at Ross and would definitely repurchase! There’s another variation of this perfume as well that I am very excited to try.

I am so impressed with this perfume. I was a little scared it would be crap. But I read all the reviews and I'm glad I listened. The bottle is a huge, bamboo-shaped, opalescent monstrocity, in a kitchy sort of way. I am glad that someone compared this to J-Lo's Miami Glow. Bora Bora is less fruity than Miami Glow. The tropical florals really stand out--but not in a passionflower fruity sort of way. More like ginger-flower and pikaki. I also detect something green and woody, like bamboo or maybe even a touch of sugarcane. As soon as you spray it on, it's magnificently sweet without being too young. When it wears down, the fruity freshness steps aside to make way for the heavenly florals. What I love about this scent is that it smells sweet without any vanilla. The staying power is wonderful--much longer lasting than Miami Glow. This was a smart "cheap" pick.

Seems reviews here agree that this is a summer scent. I found this tropical enough, just TOO tropical and it was very agressive...in my face! I used it this winter hoping, like many heavy scents, it would soften this a bit, and it did. The cooler air brings out the iris in this MUCH more than the cloying tuberose I got in the summer. This doesn't SMELL like Prada's Infusion d'Iris but it has that exact iris smell IN it. This scent, for me, is winter all the way. I've gotten many compliments on this scent this winter. It's not even the same scent I get during the summer. For this, if you find it too strong and cloying in the heat, by all means, try cold crispy air! don't give up on this because it is fresh fresh fresh and OH so lovely! This may be a new classification...Winter fresh tropical aquatic!

I got this on clearance at Ross for 9.99. I really like it. Alcohol and big florals at first, but then mellows down to tropical flowers with a coconut vibe, but no coconut, pina colada or sunscreen. Tuberose and I don’t get along, but Bora Bora’s is mellow. Familiar and comforting. Very 80’s and 90’s with the florals, but not super dated or overpowering. In the realm of Charlie White and White Musk, but more unique. I wish it was stronger and lasted longer. You definitely need to overspray because this is similar to a body spray. The atomizer does spray a lot which I don’t mind since it’s light and cheap. Tacky bottle, though. I thought I didn’t like J’Adore, but this is making me curious. Mine is Elizabeth Arden. I wish I tried this in it’s heyday when it was probably better quality and stronger.

I love this! I remember wearing Bora Bora when it was first introduced and I loved it then as well. For the price you can't beat it. I found a 3.4 oz EDP at Ross for $12. It doesn't smell like $12 perfume at all. I think Liz Claiborne fragrances don't get enough accolades generally. This is fruity, ginger-y and floral, simply lovely. I get lots of Ginger and Tuberose supported by Orange Blossom and Jasmine. I've always thought this was so well blended. Is it synthetic? Yep. But on my skin it reads more natural...perhaps I'm lucky?! I say grab this the next time you're shopping at Ross/Marshalls/and all the discount stores. P.S. I'm getting strong Tiare though it's not listed in the composition. That's great, I love Tiare.

After all these years, this one still smells so very good, and close to the original. It does have a tropical smell to it. It's reminds me of Hawaiian White Ginger in the opening and a bit like Jadore in the drydown. My boyfriend loves Jadore and he can't tell the 2 apart. Jadore is more full bodied and richer. This smells like Jadore's little sister...simpler, less strong, less sophisticated. But, still good. Really nice over the Jadore body milk. In fact, when sprayed over Jadore lotion, it's a great dupe! For so much cheaper.. I really love it for summer and for $16 ??? Heck, yes! Can't beat this orange blossom/jasmine beauty. And yes, it was expensive at one time.

I just received this perfume today, which was a blind buy. I bought it because I read that it resembles J'adore to some people and it was a more affordable alternative. After testing it, I have to say it DOES resemble J'adore, but more on the dry off. But if not comparing it to J'adore, I would say it has a very pleasant, flowery, sweet scent that is neither too young or too mature. It is slightly tropical, but I don't find it too fruity or watery smelling. I like it very much, a very good and affordable buy for me, esp if you like J'adore. I think the bottle is a little tacky and I hate the top, but that I can get over.
- em inglês
It opens with a sweetness that consists of sweet mandarin and water lily it surprises me that Bora Bora and Alfred Sung Shi both have a cloying to the skin style and opens sweet and watery but shi is more woodsy and deeper in Incense more superior staying power then Bora, bora dries to a honey like scent of tuberoses that dominates this perfume completely overshadows the other notes orchid is an elusive to the senses hard to find but it's in there. ginger faint traces of it barely noticible is there any sandalwood in this thats hard to tell unless you have an scent of an Canine but to my senses no dice.
- em inglês
this is something the little mermaid would wear on land . very aquatic clean floral and powdery i enjoy this so so much . its easy to overspray though, it lasts into the next day . i can tell this is for spring/summer but the water lily is subdued enough with powdery tuberose and jasmine to make me feel comfortable wearing in cooler/rainy weather . also, the ginger and orange are barely detectable but im neutral on those notes anyway . a must try for anyone who loves white flowers, and this pairs very well with musk or sandalwood scents . wearing this to sleep is like melatonin to me
- em inglês
I've loved this perfume since I smelled it many years ago and I always keep a bottle on hand. It's so feminine, youthful, soft and fresh. I definitely detect the Jasmine mandarin and tuberose. The water lily gives it an aquatic, watery vibe. This fragrance transports me to a relaxing island when I wear it. It's just an overall pretty scent. Not heavy at all. It's very light and clean which makes it best suited for warmer weather. This is a safe blind buy in my opinion and the affordable price makes it that much better. Love this fragrance a lot.
- em inglês
Smells nearly identical to BBW Enchanted Orchid. Has some very similar notes to it as well. Slightly more green and aquatic in the opening, but the fresh clean airy florals and orchid in the dry down is a spot on dupe. Lasts a bit longer than BBW scents too. I can still smell it on me even after an 8 hour work day. I have both and did a side by side comparison. Enchanted Orchid was my favorite scent of all time, so I'm thrilled to have discovered this dupe.
- em inglês
I received this in the mail today and I sprayed it on immediately. It smells of tropical flowers with an aquatic note to it. It's sweet but not gourmand sweet. It doesn't smell dated but there's a hint of 90's-00's here. It's long lasting, I've had this on for a few hours now and it smells strong but not in a bad way. The dry down it woody but clean. I'm happy with this purchase. This will definitely get you compliments.
- em inglês
I am so glad I picked up this fragrance. I just love it. It is really similar to Hawaiian white ginger by Avon as mentioned by other reviewers and I loved wearing that scent in my teens. Lotus, tuberose, jasmine, ginger, sandalwood and a touch of powder. It's not overpowering and the longevity is pretty good. I got the edp 3.4 oz for 12.99 at Burlington so I am very happy with my purchase.
- em inglês
Reminds me of Hula practice and going to PCC to watch the night shows. I wear it layered with Tiare Flower oil to really ground the scent. Definitively a tropical scent and harkens back to a vintage, far gone era of island getaways. Girls in sarongs with gardenia tucked behind their ears and armfuls of tropical fruits, brings back good memories. Clean, fresh, tropical floral.

I love this.SWeet,but not sicky sweet.On me,theres a pronounced hibiscus smell,Bamboo which i love,topped off with ginger.It makes one want to go ahhhhh when u smell it.Makes Others want to nuzzle u.Would b beautiful any time of year but,smells most like spring.fresh,ck=lean,yet u no its there,sweet and yummy.Smells better than JAdore to me and lasts longer.

So glad they are still selling my childhood favorite. I remember stealing sprays of this from my mom. This is an awesome floral! It evokes sunshine and happiness and the best floral gardens. Really enjoy this perfume. I had bought bora bora exotic years ago but it wasn't as nice as this original Bora Bora. I will stick to this one. Score: 8/10
- em inglês
A sweet fun floral, sexy and playful. Tuberose done in a casual way. I like it so much. It's nice in winter. I have the Liz Claiborne version, it must be an older bottle because it's starting to turn 😞 I wonder if the new manufacturer has stayed true to this, as it is something I'd happily repurchase. Liquid anti-doldrums.

This was a blind buy for me. I was pleasantly surprised at it's longevity (not overpowering). It's great for summer, particularly when the weather is humid. Coconut really stands out with this one and it's a rather tropical scent. Great value for money if you like sweet (but not sickly), slightly musky perfumes...
- em inglês
Exotic and feminine is how I describe Bora Bora. Sweet but not overpowering...I appreciate this scent for it adaptability to day and night. Well composed perfume with a bright citrus opening, drying down to a clean fresh powder with a slight mentholated lilt from the tuberose and ginger spice.
- em inglês
This is special and its only recently slapped me in the face, it's Hawaii in a bottle. I'm late to the game on this but I'm glad I discovered it. I love TF's Soleil Blanc for its beach energy, well this is my island energy scent. Palm trees, Mai tais, Cabana boys and gardenia breezes, heaven.
- em inglês
This is as close to a signature scent as I'd have had for years. This is a gentle fragrance of delicate sweetness which is inoffensive and can be worn at anytime. Great creamy undertones and continues to be a strong performer.
- em inglês
So pretty and nostalgic! I love this for summer and I just took it to vegas. I thought it was perfect for pool side and the dry heat. It feels very bubbly and reminds me a little of love spell and Paris Hilton heiress.
- em inglês
Most feminine soft floral perfume. Really does smell like clean tropical flowers. This might sound weird but it reminds me of the Soarin ride at Disney when you fly over the island, slightly aquatic floral.
- em inglês
Today I layered it with BBW Coconut Milkshake body cream and Versace Crystal Noir edt. Fresh, yet cozy and just a touch of exotic! Will be using this combo again!
- em inglês
I love to use this fresh out the shower with bodycology pure gardenia body lotion... Its so fresh and comforting. ❤

First, this is way older than 2002 – I definitely wore this in high school (1990 – 1994), which means I used my hard-earned babysitting or waitressing money circa 1992 to buy this at the newly opened Walmart in my rural home town. Today, I am in my home office at 70 degrees, with a single spray in my belly (upon which I pressed my wrist – my normal strategy for a new fragrance of unknown performance and sillage – so I can test projection as well as sniff my wrist as it evolves). One spray has modest but impressive sillage and projection. It is a white floral, no mistake about that, but it also has the grounding sandalwood note which always helps a white floral work on my skin. The first few minutes were the pale watery-ness of the water-lily, settling quickly into a richer, headier floral. Tuberose and jasmine are probably most prominent, a little rounder, fruitier and slightly tending toward cloying – I could see this being a headache inducer for some, so spray with caution. It’s not a bubble gum tuberose, as I think the other white florals keep it from going too in that direction. I don’t get mandarin or orange blossom – never a citrus type note to my nose – nor do I get a ginger note; however, there is a light spiciness that goes beyond the spice I get from tuberose, which maybe is the citrus-ginger. Longevity is going on 4 hours, fading a bit to a skin scent. A quick trip outside into the 85 degree + humidity amped up the sandalwood a smidge, but didn’t make the florals get too loud. If I go out later, I’ll reapply. I got this for $15 at Ross, a large 3oz bottle which is a very good value for a classic white floral. This is a “summer vacation” or “spring break” type fragrance, but no coconut (thank goodness, I’m not a fan and that note ruins most summer themed scents for me). Throw this in your bag for a trip to Hawaii or Florida, or your outdoor summer BBQ with sangria. It’s pretty and feminine, floral but not too heavy; it is a bit like Avon’s Rare Pearls (which has magnolia as the centerpiece white flower) but not quite as bold and overwhelming as that. The bottle is fun, iridescent glass vaguely shaped like a stand of bamboo, albeit a bit kitschy. Definitely takes me back to being a teenager, but I do find this fragrance has aged well and feels “right” as a late 40’s adult getting ready for a summertime vacation.

I enjoy the mix of florals in Bora Bora despite some of them being a bit synthetic. My first wearing left me a bit concerned I might not like it, but as I sat back and relaxed, the fragrance mingled with my skin, turning into a lovely tropical floral blend. The lack of coconut was a good thing, as this scent was evolving into something I'd wear for a dinner date. The tuberose lends a formality, but is never stuffy. The water lily is soft and ethereal. I detect some citrus, sweet like mandarins. I'm glad to report that no heavy calone was used! A bit more ginger would have been nice. I notice the fruit notes more once the flowers settle. It lasts 6 to 7 hours (on my skin), and hot weather increases the sillage. I have one caution - since this scent contains lots of flowers and fruit, I'd avoid using more than one spray if your plans involve a park or beach visit. Bugs love florals, especially bees! Many 0.5 oz bottles exist, and as of late 2021, cost $7.00 to $14.00 online (US dollars.) It's still found online but not as much as a few years ago. I like Bora Bora for it's unique take on tropical. I wear it once a month when I want to lift my mood a bit. It's not perfect but neither am I!
- em inglês
Blind buy gone right!!! How this smells tropical without coconut and tiare, I’ll never know, lol. I think it must be the dreamy jasmine that does it. This is Jadore-esque...not a dupe though. It’s similar in florals, but lacks the high end ingredients and complexity that make Dior perfumes exquisite. I don’t smell any ginger in this, which is good, as I was hesitant to try it because of that note. I ended up deciding that any creation of Calice Becker was bound to be a good one, and I was right. Her works are pretty iconic. If you like tropical white florals, then this is beyond a safe blind buy. Unlike some other reviewers, I actually like the bottle. It is reminiscent of a tiki bar, and the iridescent glass is really pretty. I went back and forth about getting this, and I’m happy to say that I have zero regrets. I really want Jadore L’or 2023, but that $170 price tag for 1.7 oz has kept me from purchasing it. I will eventually cave in and succumb to its goodness, but in the meantime, my humble $14.99 bottle of Bora Bora makes me really happy! It’s the scent of a Tahitian princess, whereas Jadore and Jadore L’ore are the Tahitian queens!!

Heyyy Bora Bora! I repurchased this fragrance yesterday, as I was shopping for my colleague a birthday gift, lol! This is my 3rd bottle since it launched in 2002. Three is a charm because I like it more now than I did when I was in my early 20s. Bora Bora is a great, "feel good" fragrance that has all of the attributes I love in a perfume. It is feminine, flirty, floral, fresh, mature, yet not dated... I love the jasmine in this fragrance, and the sandalwood is blended perfectly. All the notes are blended well. The longevity is great. One can easily get a full 8 hours of wear with this perfume without having to re-apply. The sillage is great too. People in your vicinity can definitely tell that you take pride in smelling clean and fresh when you're wearing Bora Bora. My husband enjoyed the revisit, as well. Bora Bora is a great gift for a professional woman of any age. A woman who works hard, but plays even harder. In my opinion, Bora Bora is a safe blind buy.

I really like this one. I accidentally got it over my hand when I picked off the box from the floor at a retail store. The bottle inside was broken and I got the scent all over my hand. I couldn't stop sniffing my hand so I bought one. It's soft, floral and soapy imo. Reminds me a lot of baby phat by kimora Simmons but with the staying power that one absolutely lacks. I can see why people with distinguished noses for perfume my dislike this one but more and more I find myself going for and enjoying my cheaper bottles of perfume. Something about my chemistry does well with a lot of very affordable scents. I own numerous expensive scents, some I do love. Others I like the strangeness smoky manly scent but I don't really ever wear them only in private when I feel adventurous. For those who like enigmatic perfume, this is not it. By the way my cat really likes this on me to the point he licks it from my arm.
- em inglês
I love this scent! It's pure tropical heaven on a budget. It opens strongly, all floral, water lily, tuberose and jasmine and the orchid really stands out here. The ginger adds an interesting twist. This fragrance lasts and lasts. Absolutely beautiful. This is a new bottle that says nothing about Liz Claiborne, it is distributed by EA Fragrances and made in the USA. I did check my bottle code on Checkcosmetic.net and it said it was a Liz Claiborne fragrance manufactured in 2020. I have not smelled the older version so I cannot compare. However this is an impressive stand alone fragrance for spring or summer wear. The bottle is actually kinda cute but the plastic lid and sprayer leave something to be desired. Hey for $10.00 for 3.4 oz I won't complain. I believe that this fragrance is very pretty, an excellent performer and a great value for the money!
- em inglês
It's hard to say why I like this because like the person below says it smells like 'perfume' - like back in the day when you would open a fashion magazine after all the perfume sample pages were already opened and they are kinda old and all mixed together. But I really like it and I normally dislike scents like these, especially florals! I'm learning I enjoy a light tuberose and it's very prominent in this! I happen to have vanilla romance hand lotion (B&BW) on and recently also sprayed DKNY Be Delicious Latte so mixed with that, it's really nice! It's very 80's - even the bottle even though it's not (2002). I got it for $15 at Ross and glad I did! If your on the fence, just think tropical while you smell it and you'll get it. You can literally layer it with anything and it will blend nicely.
- em inglês
I bought it strictly for the fact that there is NO vanilla and I was super excited to see what it yields! The more I wear it the more I loveit! Very tropical yet much more sophisticated than I originally thought it would be and you certainly don't have to limit it to a beach scent. Also, the men LOVE it!!! I must have been asked 5 times at work what I was wearing and when I told they were all shocked, some exclaiming they were familiar with it but on me "it smelled sooo delicious!" Yay!!! As for people saying it's old fashioned, on me it couldn't be farther from it. If anything I'd imagine the Fountain of Youth to smell something like this, very refreshing, crisp, and clean!
- em inglês
definately floral. my husband said he smelled pear and it does have a kind of pear juicy vibe to it. i think this is a tropical scent as well. i think a good summertime fragrance. i think it also smells tropical, but wearable. i think though you should only wear it at the beach in summer. otherwise you will be very much out of place. its not too sweet which is nice. i imagine a woman in a flowing transparent coverup over a viberant bathing suit walking on the beach. i think this is better than the tommy bahama fragrance if you are looking for a tropical scent. i think it may be a little too floral for me personally but if someone walked by wearing it i would like it.
- em inglês
Just got this in a swap and I quite like it! It is a near dupe for DKNY Golden Delicious, which is fine by me. The orange blossom is most dominant, then I just get a general creamy, white floral scent. I was nervous about the tuberose, but it didn't show up at all and I'm not angry. This strikes me as an office safe scent that would be nice in most weather - it's creamy enough for cool temps but the floral keeps it fresh. I've seen some describe this as aquatic or tropical, but I don't get that here at all. To me it's a lotiony white floral. The actual bottle design is...a lot.
- em inglês
So I gave this another go. It's -2 degrees Fahrenheit here in Minnesota. And this is absolutely gorgeous! No more bitterness, no more sour junk! It's creamy, smooth, violet iris smelling, a little sweet. It's quite strong too! I really like this. Too bad I spritzed more than half of my full bottle trying to force this fragrance to work in different seasons, as a means to get my money's worth somehow. All I had to do was let it sit for half the year then bust it out in the icy cold and voila! The magic happens!
- em inglês
I love tuberose but dislike water lily, so applied this with some misgivings. It turns out to be rather nice. The water lily balances the tuberose and stops it from being quite as heady as it can be in other perfumes, while the tuberose somehow mutes whatever it is about aquatic notes that disagrees with me. I'd guess it would be good on the hot summer days and nights mentioned by other reviewers. Also suitable for work. It reminds me of Tommy Bahama.
- em inglês
Hmmm. Out of curiosity, I sprayed a bit of Bora Bora on my glove today at Gordman's. I actually like it! It's definitely floral... a nice blend with (to my nose) orange blossom dominating, and a very reserved touch of aldehydes that not only balances the sweetness nicely, but gives it a slightly "soapy" feel. I'm reminded of good-smelling shampoo. I'm not usually one for loud florals, but I may pick up a bottle of this for when the mood strikes.
- em inglês
Me encanta este perfume para salir en la noche en verano. Es muy complejo el aroma pero creo que la nota que más siento es la tuberosa y la Lila, esas flores huelen dulce en mi piel, y se seca muy elegante, ahí aparece el sándalo pero la fragancia tiene una fijación media por lo tanto es maderosa y dulce pero queda cerca de la piel la estela de olor, no es invasiva para nada. Me gusta mucho y me recuerda las noches de verano que la he usado.
- em inglês
I love this for right out of the shower. It smells like a nice shampoo. I wear it to bed or when I’m hanging out at home. Maybe not a safe blind buy, it does NOT smell like J’adore, and you need to like white florals, although these are on the lighter side. Not a sweet perfume. I wouldn’t wear this as an evening scent or for date night. It’s a nice inexpensive fragrance and I enjoy it for what it is.
- em inglês
I actually enjoy this scent alot. It is very sweet, watery, floral and 'high-pitched' (if that makes any sense lol), but it is also delicious. It makes my mouth watery. It is a very fresh and lively perfume. I wish I would have discovered this one a long time ago. I feel that this would have suited me so well in college. I can still wear this though, it is very feminine and versatile.
- em inglês
This is truly a well-balanced white floral. I can't distinguish between the tuberose, from the the ginger, to the waterlily, etc. Normally, tuberose and waterlily in perfumes can be heady, but this perfume stays balanced from the initial spray to the dry down. It is not soapy, but rather light and airy if sprayed lightly; and you don't need much of it. It is a beautiful scent!

Out of my whole collection, this "cheapie"/"affordable" fragrance has got to be my top favorite summer vacation scent. Lily and iris upon spraying and then develops to a creamy tuberose that is not at all annoying to have on. This reminds me of Disney World in the 90s, and I say that in the best way possible!

I wish i got tuberose out of this. I must have a bad bottle cuz this is so sour and bitter! By the notes this should not be bitter or sour. Theres no flirals no sweetness just sour gross bitterness and im ticked off cuz i shouldn't be receiving bad bottles as often as i do by these ebay sellers.

This is a great warm weather floral that doesn’t smell dated. It exudes tropical spa, and it layers well with other scents too. Bora Bora has great projection and sillage for the price. I don’t think this smells like Jadore, but it is clean in a light tropical floral way.

Every strip of perfume sample paper from those awful, dreadful 2000’s beauty mags has come to life and they’re all stacked next to each other as one living being! And they want to go back to southeast Florida with you!! Holy tuberose Yes Yes Yes a million times Yes!!!
