Daisy Black Edition

So a fellow Fragrantica Friend was saying not long ago that she has several fragrances that she wants to give a really decent shot to. I also am guilty of spray it maybe wear once or twice and it can end up in the back of my collection collecting dust while I use others that I buy, so when she mentioned she was doing that it got me thinking to do that. So-this review is, or I guess the last few I’ve done are from me going through my lonely bottles way in the back haha and this happens to be one of them. Not only am I glad I didn’t use it up then because I love it, I forgot how much I loved it so now I get to play around with it. To me when I think of Daisy and how it smells, the word sparkling comes to mind, I’m not sure if anyone else out there knows what I mean by that but in my mind it’s sparkling, almost like champagne would be. It’s so beautiful. While I would and will wear this year round wherever whenever -I can see this being so perfect for a night out in the summer, or any evening outing on that note. I forgot how much I liked this!!! I can’t even describe any notes I smell other than to say it’s a sparkling smell lol I hope someone else on here knows what I mean :)

Absolutely NOT surprised to find out this was designed by Alberto Morillas, in fact I'm mad at myself for not making a list of all the perfumes he designed to try them all; that way I would have found this one earlier! This is heaven in a bottle. Definitively gorgeous, can make you forget all of your troubles; such a gentle, calm, pretty fragrance!! Violet is definitely the top note, while jasmine and gardenia are strong too. Vanilla just adds a hint of smoothness so it is not a sharp floral. Got this version specifically because this is EDP and am slightly annoyed that it only comes in a 50ml bottle. And nope,despite being an EDP just like any other absolutely beautiful Morillas creation, this doesn't stay long. It has below average sillage. It is a heavenly secret just for you and for your SO; it's not for you to share with your friends or strangers- because it will not reach that far unless they bury their noses in your neck. My signature scent nevertheless, because it defines and completes me - although, only for like an hour.

Lovely, balanced fragrance, youthful in a very universal way. I can picture this one being worn by a woman in her early 20's, just as well as one in her 40's or more. It's just an olfactive ode to femininity and I think it embraces so many tastes and styles. Definitely office friendly and not offensive, it's not particularly striking or memorable, but it's also a safe confidence booster and just generally a feel-good perfume. Even though I wouldn't consider it a date night or a come hither perfume, it got many compliments from ladies and gents. Cucumber is not listed among the notes, but I can't help smelling it in the very first minutes from the application. The dry down is lovely on me, gorgeous white floral blend, not excessively sparkling, but not musky vanilla either. So on a very safe balance between the two. I'd say it's a great blind buy bet or gift idea.

lush!!!! didnt like the original daisy so never owned it. then one day i was chatting to someone who was wearing the black edition and asked what perfume she was wearing as she smelt so sexy! been addicted ever since. im in my 30s and must say i dont think this smell is as young as people are saying. to me its fresh at first but the smell that lasts for hours after is more of a fresh musky vanilla!! such an interesting smell i love it!! oh and lasting power is fantastic! i have a nose like a sniffer dog and so many perfumes even i cant smell hours later. but this is fab . one of my new favourites :-) also love this bottle . much nicer than the original!!

Whichever color bottle of the edp--same scent--great winter scent. I don't get the grapefruit at all though and am surprised it's ranked so high by others in the notes. the edp is a really solid, well blended perfume (much, much better than the edt). I know MJ Daisys get some flack for all the flankers, but I get compliments every time I wear this. It really has respectable silage and longevity. I get violet, soft musk with faint gardenia undertones and gentle blond wood. It may not be complex, but it's very pleasant, not fruitily, citrusy, sugary or powdery. It's a satisfying scent, not addictive or intoxicating,, but feminine and substantial.
