Michael Kors

This is very nice, actually. Interestingly, it goes on super-buttery, but not at all sweet, on me. It's not sour either - just, almost strangely, neutral. If you don't like/trust that stage, don't worry, because it then becomes sweeter over time (unusual, for me), until it is really quite sweet; but (unlike something like Angel), not in a too obviously chemical, or sickly, way. Bearing in mind I only apply a spray, or two (at most) of any fragrance, though. If you apply generously, it quite possibly may become somewhat sickly, I would imagine. Then, later still, it went slightly less sweet on me, again. I can detect what someone was saying about the slightly rubbery smell; but, it's not overwhelming, or unpleasant, in my opinion. It kind of comes and goes, as time goes on. Think it's the tuberose? I like tuberose, though, even if it can be a little rubbery at times. I find the fragrance pretty well balanced - all the notes seem to blend together well. It seems like the sort of, fairly inoffensive, fragrance you could wear pretty much anywhere and at any time of year. It's pretty, without being twee, it's feminine, without being girly, it's slightly sexy, but not overtly so, it's quite comforting, without being boring and it's strong enough, without being overwhelming. Update: Just wanted to add that one of the things that is good about this fragrance is the type of wood (or wood-like note, in this case!) used. I've just been testing two Givenchy fragrances and the end of the drydown is like standing in a sawmill. Cheap-smelling woodchips everywhere... Whereas, this is more like the smell of top quality hardwood furniture. Antique hardwood furniture, to be precise. If you have a woody note in a composition, I've come to the conclusion that the (apparent) quality of that wood really matters. With the Givenchy, you would have to respray, or wash it off, frankly. Whereas, with this, you could leave it to mellow almost indefinitely, if you wanted.

I love this perfume so much I want to cry. It's just a dream. It's a dream. I had this as a miniature alongside Wonderlust and Sexy amber - I thought it looked like a rather boring, mature throw-in alongside the two heavily-promoted ones. Absolutely not. Wow. Wow wow wow. I know this is really silly, and it should be the fragrance that matters most, but I really wish they had promoted this one most. Ironically, perfumery is very visual - it's all about the story. It's either sex sells or love (romance) sells. This could have been the dreamiest, sexiest scent to back-up a campaign as equally interesting and inspiring a the perfume. The bottle could've been so dainty - instead, it's boring. I'm a huge hypocrite in this area - I type the above, and yet I never understand why fragrances like Coco Mademoiselle are still popular and hugely revered. I figure it's because it's Chanel. The brand of Chanel sells. I get it - we all want a piece of history that ties us back to days we have romanticised. Chanel's life in itself could be an Audrey Hepburn movie. However, Coco Mademoiselle et al. is not a touch on this eponymously-named perfume. As such, I believe this will be my favourite perfume when I'm older. It's my favourite -scent-, but it can't be my favourite perfume right now. My 20-something head is too full of daydreams about boys and romance and flowers. This is too mature. I need something princessy like Daisy Dream Kiss, or sexy like Be Delicious. The day I mature into MK Michael Kors will indeed be a good day. So, ridiculously, amazingly, stupendously, running-out-of-synonyms-ly... Fantastic. I want to hug the perfumer.

This is so gorgeous! Just got it today at Sams Club for only $35 !! 1.7 onz and could'nt be happier with it! Michael Kors by Michael Kors is so feminine,strong but delicate,lady-like,classy, not too young, but not too old, suitable for any age in my opinion. I'm in my late 20's and I find it perfect for me, as soon as I tried it from a sample I got, I fell in love with it.. This is a pure white floral scent, I've never smelled tuberose before, but I am sure that this is the delicious dominant floral scent I most love about it..so,so,so creamy, kind of like a very expensive floral creamy soap, clean, but not "detergent clean" or green/fresh.. It is very warm, a little sweet smelling, I guess the tuberose is whats giving it that sweet,white flowery, warm feel to it..Mmm, it is just divine!! The staying power is Amazing! I sprayed it on my skin and 2 sprays on my blouse and still 8 hours later I can still smell this beautiful scent on me. If you love white florals, I encourage you to sample this! It is a bit strong a first spray, don't let that discourage you, spray very lightly and let it sit for about 5-10 min. it transforms to such a beautiful,delicate,warm,sweet,creamy flowery scent! I feel this is good for everyday wear, but it is especially great for special ocasions, romantic dates,weddings,church or any day you want to feel elegant,classy,delicate and feminine, this is what this gorgeous scent is..

I wore this yesterday for the first time and I have to say that this is becoming my second signature scent, if something like that exists. This is just beautiful! On my skin this is mainly Chinese osmanthus and I am an osmanthus nut, so this, for me, is heaven. It's pretty lasting, I put it on in the morning and I cold still smell it as I walked out of the office. It's beautiful, delicate, feminine and I think this could work all year long, although I'm not going to use it when it's too hot in the summer; for me this works best in fall, winter and spring. I got a 100ml EDP bottle and although it was a little pricey, I'm definitely getting another one. This will be permanently in my collection. This was my first review here and I wanted to thank you all for helping me to learn a lot about this wonderful thing called perfume, which has been a passion of mine for years. One last thing. I mentioned Paco Rabanne Pour Elle in the "This perfume reminds me of" field above, but I think a much better choice would actually be La Chasse aux Papillons by L`Artisan Parfumeur. I was revisiting my sample box this morning and sprayed a little of it on my wrist. On me, both these perfumes smell almost identical. I even checked the notes on the page dedicated to La Chasse, because I was stunned, it's like the same perfume.

This was a surprising WIN for me. The bottle is hideous and tacky, trying too hard to be glamourous, I really hate it. I would never have picked it up during a casual browse at a store. I normally prefer much sleeker packaging with clean minimalist lines and that is what I usually gravitate towards while idly browsing. But I was sent a sample of this with an online purchase and upon first whiff I wanted to live inside the little sample vial. IT IS HEAVENLY. It is a creamy heady tuberose to me. The tuberose is so clear, it feels like you havethem in a vase right by you. It is very feminine, without being too sexy. It's not lingerie... it's that dress that makes you feel like a million bucks. It is definitely a men-pleaser, the kind that will move them to actually say "you smell very very good". I will say that it can be a touch loud... the sillage is pretty sizable on it, so I wouldn't recommend it for an office. I think it's a great first-date fragrance. Or every-date.
