mark Jewel

If anyone told you Jewel smells like Caress's exfoliating brown sugar body wash, it does not. Although, I can see how they may compliment one another, it is not the same scent if that's what you're looking for. The more I wear it, the more I like it. Soft. I consider it a vanilla with an uplifting upgrade. If this is considered a "gourmand" then I would say it is on the lighter side of them, Jewel is not a heavy scent at all. An inoffensive perfume, I prefer it for day wear. I find it to be casual but confident. I only smelled the fruit notes in the initial spritz and found them to fade very quickly on my skin. The dry down is pleasant, warm yet airy. Besides the floral note, the choice of a lighter wood adds to the airiness which I think gives Jewel a unique touch. I found the vanilla used in Jewel to be on the exotic side more in line with a fresh vanilla bean than a frosted cupcake. Medium sillage, may need to be re-applied. Unfortunately discontinued. This is my SO's favorite scent on me which is like salt to the wound.

The kind of perfume that melds with one's skin and becomes extraordinary. Warm succulent vanilla caramel. But sophisticated and special. This is no one dimensional teen 1990s vanilla or toffee scented body spray. There is a kick in there that makes it super sophisticated and even glamorous. I can see Gina Carungi, the first super model, wearing this in the 80s. There is aldehydes in there? Agree with Alona. The scent chart says no, but... Just a gorgeous scent. I used every last drop. Unfortunately I brought it to work and everyone would borrow it, so many compliments.

I truly regretted gifting this to my little sister, it is such a beautifully composed scent. You can really smell the caramel surround you with wafts of lightly scented flowers. It does remind of me of Prada Candy but they're are more like cousin who than sisters, they both have distinctions that set them apart. While Prada Candy is a sweet leathery goodness, Mark Jewel is warm, toasty and just as mature. I can even smell the scent on my clothes a few days later, so I'd imagine it's a long lasting scent.

Why do my reviews keep disappearing? I am 34 and received this on a swap and loved it to death. While trying to down size my perfume collection odecided to sell it on ebay. I have had sellers remorse ever sense, I want it back very badly. I miss this lovely sweet scent.

The bottle is FABULOUS!!! God it's stunning!!! I would love this perfume JUST for the bottle, if I didn't love it for itself; which I DO wholeheartedly! It's a wonderful perfume. Delicious notes perfectly gorgeously blended into a dream!!! I adore it!!!
