Sexual Paris

First hit is a sweet blast of sweet fruit with some musk. I am getting the champagne too but I don't think I would have picked up on it had I not read the notes. It is nice enough but I don't think there is anything unique here. I will add to this when I get to the dry down! 1 hour Update: Still pretty sweet on me. I am really picking up on the champagne now. This might just be what differentiates it from some of the sweeter "affordable" celebrity fragrances. I really wanted this to be "sexy" but it hasn't happened for me yet. Update: I have been using this for a couple of days now and I am falling in love with it. I was at an event and caught myself wondering who was wearing this amazing perfume I was smelling! To my delight, it was me!

I truly love the musky dry down in this fragrance. Unfortunately, it has little to no lasting power. By the time I get out the door, the scent is gone. I have to rub my nose in my skin to smell the traces of it. A shame.

I LOVE the opening to this. It’s juicy, sweet, sparkling & fresh. You can definitely sense the champagne, but that juicy blackcurrant keeps it from becoming too dry. That sweet juiciness fades though & is replaced with jasmine that is slightly sharp. I can’t really isolate any specific notes after that. All I can describe it as is very “perfumey”, kinda dry & less sweet the longer it sits. If this perfume were a gemstone it would be citrine. I think of something shiny & yellow when I smell this. After about 30 minutes some woodiness comes through. Overall I would say this is a woody, aromatic floral. The fruitiness is only present in the beginning (wish it stuck around). I like this though. I’d say it’s appropriate for a woman in her 30s and up. Sexual Paris is a nice perfume to wear to a professional career or to a sophisticated party.

Very classy and fruity, overall mass pleasing. I think this would be a great perfume to gift someone! Classy fruity champagne with a hint of patchouli. I swear I smelled something like this on my mom growing up. Beautiful! I think this is unique in its own way. I’ve never smelled coco mademoiselle so I cannot compare.

I agree with Kath Grace, the dry down is worth all the wait! Top and middle notes are fruity (not overly fruity), floral and warm, but not just your typical fruity floral fragrance; doesn't smell like anything you would buy at BBW or VS - IMO. I'm really feeling this one!
