Curve Soul

Curve Soul was a pleasant surprise as I bought my first bottle from the internet solely based on the scent's components and without any kind of precognition whether I would actually like the fragrance or not. But it turned out (to my delight) to be a very nice fragrance for everyday use. My first impression of Soul was that cactus and bamboo are rather sharp and penetrating at the initial; therefore it is quite green and strong at first. A bit too green for me, as I almost always opt for florals.. But when the drydown occurs, Soul develops into a lovely, light, airy and calming floral scent of "barely there" kind. A really good buy considering its affordable price and long-lasting whiff. In other words, a true bargain to be sprayed on during the hot and humid summer months, just to add some extra amenity to the long and lazy (holi)days.

SERIOUSLY BUY THIS PERFUME...it is so great and it is in the floral catagory and i would have never thought that, to me its totally green bamboo (im not sure what bamboo is actually suppose to smell like but to me Soul is bamboo)I have tryed everything trying to pick out a new scent for myself..light blue etc. etc. all of those but always go back to this its so wonderful and dirt cheap...buy this girls if you like fresh scents that have a little green in them you will love Soul !!! If this scent was $1 or $100 it wouldnt matter i would still buy it. I know its not for everybody but with me its perfect for spring and summer and i get it at TJ Max for $9.99 you cant beat that !!!! My number one perfume for spring and summer is Nanette Lepore (love it) but this comes a really really close second.

I first smelled this at a TJ Maxx in August and wore it on the drive home. Instantly, it felt like a hot summer night walking by a pond, listening to peepers and feeling refreshed by the relative coolness of evening. The surrounding wisteria and wildflowers, the water, the night jasmine and other summer aromas are etched in me now and this cheap, silly perfume can take me there instantly. I've been through many bottles and like to apply it before I go to bed. Nothing complicated about it, never heavy, but it does wonders in my mind. Because in real life, walking by a pond at night means I am covered in deet! lol!

I personally love this perfume and think it is excellent for the price. It is a light and feminine, fresh green-floral. If You are sensitive to vanilla and/or amber notes so commonly found in most perfumes but you want an inexpensive and inoffensive scent, this is it! It is a gentle crisp, green and a very refreshing without being headache material for me. If you prefer lighter scents due to allergies or migraines, this green aquatic floral is perfect for daily use. I love to wear this on warm days

The bamboo and cactus flower mixed with freesia really complete this scent for me! This is a wonderful spring/summer fragrance especially at night. the silage is great and the longevity is even better. Great blind buy, just like all of the Liz Claiborne perfumes!

This was a blind buy...a VERY GOOD blind buy! I am absolutely LOVING Soul! Bamboo. water lily (even though it's not listed) and a hint of musk...what a perfect combination! It is so fresh and pretty; perfect for anyone at any age!

This is a very successful blind buy for me. Hooray! I smell the fresh, crisp scent of the bamboo and lotus almost from the second after my first spritz. I didn't have any alcohol-like scent to endure when I first sprayed like I do with so many fragrances. The fresh smell is intoxicating! I don't tolerate the heat well at all, so I've already begun my long season of staying indoors most all the time. So what a splendid experience it is to be able to spritz this on as often as I like...which is like the best, most divine smells of the warmer months outdoors, without having to step outside my door. The fresh scent lasts longer than these types of notes usually do on me, which is a real treat. After a little while I start to detect a faint freesia, as well as the heart notes of glorious heliotrope and tiger lily. YUMMY! I am still enjoying this gorgeous, harmonious blend when I notice a faint, but comforting musk. Wow! This is going to be one of my all-time favorites, I can tell. I can't wait until the scent starts to fade so I can indulge in a fresh spritz! Highly, highly recommended to anyone who enjoys green, fresh, clean and somewhat floral fragrances. I don't think this one is going to disappoint anybody. (And I got it for a song, too! BONUS!)

I am so surprised to see all the negative comments regarding this scent. It is not, by any means, an original scent; it quite reminds me of Bath and Body Works' "Water Blossom Ivy", which I adored. It was simple, sure, but it was great for humid summer days when one wanted to invoke the feeling of calm, cool waters. Curve Soul hearkens back to that tranquil watery vibe. I live in California where the summer temperatures can be brutal and any kind of fragrance can be too cloying. Curve Soul has managed to stay light and cool in the present heat. Most surprising for a watery fragrance of this sort, the sillage is decent and it lasts a relatively long time. My only complaint about this fragrance is its bottle. Whenever I grab this fragrance I feel a bit like I've nabbed a perfume from a thirteen year old. It's a cute bottle but the sticker label is a bit cheeky, and not in a good way. However, if the uninspired labeling is how I was able to obtain this perfume for such a ridiculously low price, then I have no complaints.

I picked up a small (.5 oz) bottle of this from a garage-sale for less than a dollar thinking maybe my mother or sister might like it, and, if not, then no big loss. On first spray, it reminds me of the scent of a florist's shop- that blend of fresh-cut stems and flowers and cold water, ozonic and clean. And Easter lillies on display. The base is a pristine white musk- like that in laundry detergent or hair-products, so it has that note that you smell when you move the damp clothes to the dryer or while lathering your hair with shampoo during a shower. This is certainly not a "loud" sillage-monster- rather, it is quiet and stays nearby and simply smells like a garden after the rain. I even detect a delicate whiff of soil-tincture on the drydown (~12h on me), making the "garden reference" all that much stronger. As a guy, I don't think this is an overly feminine fragrance; I think anyone could wear this if it fits the mood- great for a summer day!

Very pretty scent, but not an instant love. This one has to be worn a few times before it can be properly judged. I bought this at a fire sale with a friend who was not impressed by it at all, until a week later she smelled it on me and went back to buy herself a bottle! Be careful with this scent though, I've had random strangers stop to smell me (one time in an elevator, another in a bar.. both times I could distinctly hear the person inhaling as they sniffed the air before being quizzed as to what I was wearing, and both times my personal bubble was invaded.. awkward!) It can be slightly overpowering and come off as somewhat dated but overall once it calms down is quite lovely.

This is one mf my all time faves- very easy to wear, and works well in the florida heat. Its a light, crisp, almost aquatic floral. Feminine without being too sweet and overbearing. I wore this all throughout high school, and went through about 3.5 bottles since i discovered it. (and for me thats a LOT- I usually use no more than 2-3 sprays of any perfume a day- I am super headache prone.) I havent even thought about this stuff for awhile, but while cleaning my bathroom I found that other 1/2 bottle under the sink and sprayed the air- man this stuff is yummy! It almost makes me think of meditation, if meditation had a smell.... :)

Reading through the other reviews, I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks of cucumbers. I almost couldn't believe it isn't in the notes. But it must be the play between the bamboo and cactus that I'm smelling. I don't get much in the way of woods (or at least what I think of as woods) or any other flowery scent. Just a cool, damp, green cucumbery smell. I don't love it, but I don't dislike it either. It's rather bland actually. Good for hot summery days when one just wants something cool and uncomplicated. Don't think I'd buy again though.

This is a refreshing cool fragrance to wear during the hot weather we have been suffering through the past week. 42C days in our part of Australia. Just smelling this makes me feel cool. I get loads of water lily and the cactus definitely comes off as a cool cucumber note. It's softly floral, sweet with just a touch of nutmeg and incense and refreshes the senses with every passing whiff. This was a blind buy and I wasn't sure of the notes but they make a gorgeous feminine aquatic floral perfume which is just perfect for hot summer days.

Not all the blind buys go wrong, and this one is a proof for that! This is a WIN! Lovely summery, aqvatic fresh and very nature friendly kind of scent. I can feel how my skin loves the bamboo and lotus, finally a perfume that doesen't smell sweet or bad on my olive skin, it just stays fresh spicy. I also LOVE how it developes on my skin within hours, and I can say I like every note of it!! One of my best summer scents from now on. I doubt it could bother anyone, it's too nice! Price is good too, very affordable!

Soul is a very watery, fresh and light fragrance, very inobtrusive and quite delicate...suppose it's the combination of lotus and bamboo and possibly cactus that gives it its watery quality. It would be perfect on a hot sweaty sunny day as it has quite a cooling effect. The trouble is it does not last whatsoever and is barely detectable on my skin...having said that, I have been tryng this in a cold cloudy UK. Perhaps it smells differently on a hot sunny day!

Man, I'll always remember this as clean water green scent I think I picked up at Marshalls or TJ Maxx on the clearance table. You dont need to apply too much. The bottle I had recently leaked into the bottom of one of my black leather purses and stained my tan leather car seat! Ugh! I better check my clearance bottles for defects next time!

I remember having this perfume a few years ago. It wasn't a bad fragrance, but I got bored with if before I could finish the small bottle so I started using it as a freshner for my car. It smells like the original curve with a cleaner vibe. I will not purchase again.

As I am sitting here stalking this website I smelled something amazing and couldnt figure out what it was. I realized it was the sample of this I put on my arm a few hours ago. I only put on a tiny tiny bit! Will have to buy this. If anyones got one let me know :)

I used to like this one a lot! The watery lotus floral scent was nice and not too strong and the lasting power was good!!

It's so light and cold for me. Not long lasting. Not very floral. I just can smell the bamboo.
