The Taste of Fragrance Womanity

Oh this lovely little gem, I absolutely love it! Where to begin... First spray/sniff, OMG addictive warm spicy opening that I’d gladly buy a bottle of just for that scent! Then original Womanity starts to peek through, and ultimately it remains a nice balance of OG Womanity with the “warm spices+chutney.” Chutney, and the name of this flanker, don’t exactly sound “beautiful.” I assure you, it is beautiful. I couldn’t imagine what the chutney note and spices would smell like, but after wearing this, I’ve definitely smelled this fig + spice blend in the past in holiday scented candles. It isn’t you’re typical cinnamon gingerbread pumpkin spice type of scent, but I know I’ve gone gaga over figgy spice candles that smell like this in the past. I cannot think of a comparable popular brand scent to compare it to, unfortunately, it’s a rare scent I’ve chased for years. If you’ve smelled a million fig candles in the past, you’ve probably smelled something like this at least once. I think this is a better fall/winter Womanity. It isn’t exclusively for those seasons, though. I will say that you probably will need to appreciate the original Womanity to enjoy this flanker, but it is different enough that there may be some who didn’t like the OG but like this. I wouldn’t blind buy unless you’re a Womanity fan. This is sweeter, spicier, and has more of a fig fruit feel than the OG. Performance is about the strength and projection of the OG. Unfortunately it’s discontinued and expensive now, and it does require a bit of overspraying for me and my desert climate, but I feel it performs like every other major Mugler scent I’ve had. It sometimes completely disappears on me, then I will smell it very well in my hair or clothing hours later. I’d say I get a good 6 hours out of this with 2-3 foot silage, longer on clothing, longer at night and in cooler temperatures, less in the sun and heat. Note that I live in the California desert which is very dry, and makes scents smell at least 25% weaker than they smell in most other normal climates with humidity, so it likely performs better in non-desert areas. Blind buy success!

This is a beautiful fragrance. I was already a fan of the original, but Mugler has made it even better. Womanity Taste of Fragrance is saltier, spicier and more complex than the original. When I first spray it on, I get a blast of bitter woods and sweet spices. In the first few minutes it warms and becomes smoky, with a hint of green citrus lingering. The smokiness subsides quickly. The central note in Womanity is the beautiful, fleshy fig fruit. The chutney makes this really unusual, but warmly spicy and piquant. The woody notes are gorgeous. Thick, smoky vetiver and honeyed cedar make for a deep, earthy base. Opoponax gives a twinge of earthy-sweet resin. In the drydown, I get dusty honey and cinnamon, along with that persistent creamy fig and warm spice. No doubt the spiced fig fruit and earthy woods are intense. But overlaying these notes is a strong oceanic quality. The scent of a fresh, citrusy ocean breeze plays throughout all stages of this fragrance. It reminds me of the open ocean – wild, joyful, unpredictable, and a hint unsettling. In sum, this is a rich, sweet-savory fragrance with an exhilarating oceanic feel. There is a lot going on here, but it doesn’t come across as discordant or “too much.” It’s unusual, yet harmonious. This is not a stereotypically feminine scent. It is not about light florals, candy-sweetness, or powdery softness. It has many facets – bitter, salty, sweet, savory, zesty, animalic. Admittedly, I still think the concept of “womanity” is silly, but the scent itself is so gorgeous I really don’t care about the misguided campaign.

The opening of the Taste of Fragrance Womanity is like the drydown of the original Womanity: rounded salty fig. Then the chutney makes its entrance. Its spiciness, saltiness and sourness fill the grey zone between sweet fig and salty caviar and sea water and smoothes the transition between these two complete opposite aspects. The salty fig base of Womanity is still easily recognizable. However, it's not crisp fig and caviar to be eaten raw like the original; instead it's smooth and savoury, like an elaborated gastronomic course. After 5 or 6 hours, the fruitiness takes over the gourmand chutney and the whole fragrance mellows into a cozy sweet fig scent. If I am to compare the original Womanity, Eau pour Elles and ToF, I'd say the original is no doubt the version with the most edge, EpE is innocent and more playful but is still a woody-fruity scent like the original, while ToF has a significant gourmand vibe thanks to the incredible chutney note. If the original is like the blue cheese (we all know they don't smell alike but they're both loved or hated. ^.^), EpE like fromage frais with strawberry coulis, then ToF must be the main course accompanied by a Roquefort sauce. Overall, I'd say ToF captures the spirit of the original Womanity while giving out a complete different ambiance. It'd be easier to appreciated compared to the original, like previous reviews stated. The sillage is moderate and the longevity is at least 10h. It definitely worths a try.

Of the entire LE GOÛT DU PARFUM line I think this is the best execution of the idea. I'm not saying it's the best perfume, I prefer ALIEN LGDP with it's sweet, buttery caramel. But this literally makes my mouth water. It's so gourmand. It's just like smelling a really, really tasty dish. The fig chutney is really potent. Sweet, tangy and spicy, from opening to finish, it's there. The chutney enhances the saltyness of the caviar, it's much, much tastier then the original. The metallic bloodnote I got in the original is gone as well. It seems to me that the spicy-sweet chutney has somehow made a bridge in between the caviar/oyster/marinenotes and the fruity fig. It's not just two notes now, but something that makes sense. I also find that the fig leaves and fig wood are more prominent. And that is the true genius of this fragrance. Despite all the gourmand scents, the woods and leaves still give the salt this fresh, sealike quality, so this fragrance stays very pleasant and fresh. I think the WOMANITY LGDP is a better blended, better balanced and far more wearable version of the original. It's the same, but completely different.

I have never understood the perception that Womanity smells fishy. The caviar note is abstract, it smells of salt and sea and were you not told it was meant to evoke the idea of caviar, you would simply believe it was a slice of cold, salted watermelon. In this one however, both that chilly aquatic melon note and the slightly underripe green fig note are downplayed and enhanced by a saucy, spicy, sweet and sour chutney note that is absolutely gorgeous. It literally makes my mouth water at first spray. Don't get me wrong, the salt is still there, adding that awesome oceanic vibe, but it's less fresh, and much deeper and sweeter, with a hint of cardamom and tamarind, and maybe some jaggery or dates (maybe even fenugreek) to make it sweet. I love both the original and this one, but this is certainly more of a crowd pleaser and develops so much more beautifully on my skin. I feel like it's a safe choice, but then again, I don't exactly find Womanity to be challenging to love either.

The TM flankers I have tried thus far have never strayed very far from their original counterparts, and this is no exception, so much so that I am puzzled as to why the original Womanity is so divisive while this version gets so much love. To me, there are more similarities than differences and it seems to me they are equally good. But on to the differences, the main one to me is that this isn't nearly as green. It's less about smelling a whole fig tree, more about the fruit, in the form of a sweet fig chutney. Luckily, it is not sticky or cloying and, like the original perfume, you also get a salty accord that keeps things interesting. It's interesting that at least one other reviewer had the same impression as me, and that is that this perfume has a distinct mineral smell. I never got the association of the original perfume with the sea, other than the presence of salt, but with this one I can picture wet, salty rocks on a warm shore.

This version is just heavenly! It smells like the original Womanity only a little sweeter and a bit richer....and a little less of that green figgy bite. Which I like by the way but I also like the creamier and sweeter fig in this one. It still smells extremely similar to the original, so don't expect a really big difference. I think of Taste as a little more formal, a bit more night time and possibly like the fall/winter version of Womanity (although I would wear it any time of year). It is absolutely delicious and I can't stop sniffing myself. Womanity in general is a very unique fragrance, unlike anything else I have ever smelled and I can't quite put my finger on what makes it so different but it just is. There are lots of fig fragrances out there but I have never smelled a combination of fig done like Womanity. I find it utterly womanly and intoxicating and this may be my very favorite version.

It is definitely sweeter than the original. I must say I'm in love. Not only do I notice it like a veil around me, but somehow people areound me are going crazy over it. It's the best blind buy I've ever done. It's salty mixed with sweet (somehow reminds me of my signature frag Hypnotic Poison, in terms of being salty and sweet and the same time), rare, which is what I believe Mugler was aiming for. Us women can be bittersweet and utterly irresistible ;) The sillage is amazing (sprayed at 7am... and it's now 7pm and I smell it all around me) so I think it's worth the money. P.S. This separates the girls from the women, not everybody can pull this off, so if you feel adventurous go ahead. If you dislike figs or frags that are sweet/salty/different... then you won' t like this.

I really love this. It is not as heavy as the womanity cuir. I definitely get a fig chutney thing going on. It's not too sweet but quite fresh. It's about the sea and figs. The fact that caviar was listed worried me a bit but thankfully I can't pick it out. This was never going to be an easy like let alone love. It definitely gets even better after half an hour or so. There is more figgy sweetness and an aromatic quality that I really love. Id make a guess that the vetiver and green notes provide the aromatic element. The chutney has eased off. It is an interesting fragrance and you can see why Fragrantica was not able to find a category to put this in. I think this fragrance suits casual holiday wear. It withdraws to arms length after an hour or so but lasts for many hours.

Very, very similar to the original Womanity, but eerily different. It's richer, more intense, more complex. I thought of the original Womanity as a summer fragrance. This special edition seems like it could be a summer night time fragrance or maybe even a fall fragrance. I would describe it as cozy, where I would not describe the original that way. It was strange to smell chutney in a perfume, but it was definitely there, and it smelled wonderful. I would have bought this, but I decided I like the Alien Taste of Fragrance just a tad better...but I still want this too!

Did a blind buy on this one and I THINK I'm happy with that decision I didn't like it at first spray, the Cedar completely overwhelmed the figgy and salty notes. I also could slightly notice those citrus notes for the 1st 5 minutes and didn't like that. BUT once it dried down, maybe 20 minutes later the yummy fig and salt of the original womanity was finally present - the only difference is that it's more intense than original womanity, which I personally think has a softness to it. The bottle looks much nicer in person than it does in photos, which is a nice bonus.

This one is starys very close to the concept of the original, but it is indeed much saltier and somewhat less fishy. Also, there's a crisp, almost nutty scent that I pick up from the original that I don't smell in this; instead I get a salty burnt smell. Compared to the original, I find this much, much saltier. The saltiness makes the scent more gourmand, but not like any food that I would personally like to eat. Smell? Maybe. Here's a plus, this has better sillage than the original.

This is a beautiful scent with the world's worst name. I'd be so embarrassed if someone asked me what I was wearing and I had to say "womanity the taste of fragrance". I'm sure I'd just say "a Thierry Mugler perfume" sheesh I got strong honey and then in the middle it seemed like watermelon popped out. Some might smell it as fig but it was fruity and it felt more "watery" (in a good way) than fig. It had great longevity - I would seek a larger amount out.

This is a deeper, figgier Womanity. Less citrus, more salt and more of a foodie feel. I'm wondering if the "chutney" note contains fenugreek, in addition to the immortelle, because there is certainly a maple syrup type aroma to Taste of Fragrance. Womanity is a fragrance, that for me, works all year round. Taste of Fragrance I might reserve for fall/winter because of it's intensity.

This one is basically the same as the original, but it is indeed much saltier and somewhat less fishy. Also, there's a crisp, almost nutty scent that I pick up from the original that I don't smell in this; instead I get a salty burnt smell. Compared to the original, I find this much more bland. But if you are looking for an office scent, this is't it either but it's closer.

while emulating food's taste, it's extremely synthetic. the marketing concept tries to make an statement, but ends up in the very comfortable field of the status quo (the same can be said about this tacky bottle). i guess i should hate this fragrance. but how come, every once in a while, i reach for this? and love using it the whole day through, since it lasts forever?

I have a sampler right now of regular womanity and I adore it. BUT - seeing the notes in this one I am STUNNED and desperately want to blind buy it even though it's a bit risky seeing as I already know I like regular womanity and could just buy that one. But the fragrance notes in this one... how can I pass them up!??! I am forever loyal to the House of Thierry Mugler

I received today My Womanity Taste of Fragrance and I am super happy with it. I own also the original one and I think this is more frutier but in the same spirit of womanity with the exceptional smell. Very long lasting and I prefer to wear it during warm weather. Happy perfuming, Thierry Mugler thanks once again for the utmost quality of your perfumes.

I thought the chutney would have add the extra sweetnes that Womanity doesn't need. Infact the top notes make it fresher to what I recall of the original one, that improves it(sweet isn't for me). The dry down is like her mummy, very alluring.... just a tad too intense(I try to spray less but Mugler are always very strong)

Very similar to the original Womanity but for some reason I feel it less intime and more civil, as it is sweeter and spicier. I would suggest it more suits everyday activities than the original one which is the best for a tet-a-tet with your significant other, as it is so so decadent.

Taste of Womanity is my favorite of the whole line but by far my FAVORITE perfume ever. Mugler you've created a masterpiece of a scent, and if this wasn't so difficult to get, I would instantly make it my signature. I will never come across anything as exemplary

I really love this perfume. It reminds me a bis fig trees field. Is sweet, fruity and, (I don't know how they do it) marine! Smells very differents, but very well combinated. An extraordinary essence in the whole senses

Smells like an exquisite spicy dinner, served on metal plates in a space ship.

Layer this with BBW brown sugar and fig lotion.... Heaven!

The Taste of Fragrance line was so good, it's sad we will likely never get something like this from Mugler again. Womanity TToF is especially interesting, because it plays with unusual savory, spicy gourmand accents. It has a lot of Womanity's DNA of ripe, jammy fig and salty, oceanic freshness. Like the notes list says, this really has a fig chutney accord added. It's sweet and appetizing, but not like a dessert or a typical gourmand perfume, more like a spread you would put on a cheese board. Immortelle often smells a bit like curry in perfumes, which also happens here. I'm usually not a big fan of that, but it just works together with the fig and the fresh saltwater breeze. Balsamic notes in the base add another layer of warmth. Even though I'm not sure if I find this wearable for myself, I'm very happy I got the chance to try it and I find it weirdly addicting. I love to smell it, but maybe I wouldn't love to smell like it. Kudos to those who can pull it off. I think the whole Womanity family might be a bit sensitive to temperature changes and works best in mild to warm weather. By the way, testing this flanker made me appreciate the original more. I remembered Womanity having a metallic, unsettling undertone and thought I only liked the EDT version (Eau pour elles). My decant of TToF made me so curious to retry one of the rare Womanity EDP testers in a department store, and this time I got much more of the interplay between sweet and savory and hardly anything metallic. I think I have to look into it again to be sure.

This is my favorite out of the Womanity Collection. First is a strong Cavair or Oceanic smell then the drydown is a wonderful citrus/spicy. With a sweetness to it. When I first smelled Womanity I hated it, a headache that was horrible. But then with in on my dresser I would each day pick it up open the bottle and sniff it. Lightly dragging the sprayer on my arm. Then low and behold I fell in love with this collection. I own all three and A TASTE OF FRAGRANCE is my ultimate favorite. Womanity I am going to wait for the fall and winter months to wear as it is a warmer stronger smell. The Eau pour Elles I wear during the day on the weekends. Also the Womanity Milk is great you can wear it with the entire collection of Womanity. e

I absolutly dislike the original "Womanity" but this one is quite a different story! Simply amazing and so tasty! Yummy! This kind of "Womanity" i would definitly wear and quite a lot! This fig chutney intense note is far more better here than in original one and here i don ́t get much of a salty note that i really dislike in original "Womanity"! Definitly will buy 2 bottles of this one since it is a limited edition! Lasting power and sillage are perfect! Just couldn ́t believe how much difference it make by adding a bit intensive note! If you don ́t like "Womanity" then DO try this edition, simply stunning, you might really fall for this one!!!! Worth every cent!!!

The original Womanity is just intriguing, you know, probably like a woman's nature:) Its not for everyday at least not for me, it plays with your senses, one day its sweet, aromatic and comforting and then the next, its like "whats that fishy metallic smell"?:) Now this version I can definetely feel the citruses making the perfume more approachable, lighter. And its not just a top note, they're blended in nicely, I can smelll them throughout the day.

This one from the beginning is very spicy and quite sharp, probably due to the chutney sauce inside. In time, on my skin it is getting a bit sweeter. Maybe it will be controversial, but in my opinion, it has a common denominator with A Man, version TOF with chili pepper ;D I love pepper and i love this extraordinary fragrance! Edit: Unfortunately longevity is realy poor if you compare to the classic version

A better version of the original! A blind buy which I knew I was gonna love and indeed I do! This fragrance is so unique and incredible. The original had this aquatic note that I wasn't particularly fond of, but this one is a masterpiece a perfection in a bottle! I can't believe it's going to be discontinued, Mugler why?

I no longer love it. Worn in winter day to day with the pillar it feels near identical but stronger initially to the point of making me nauseous for an hour. Then it starts to be closer to the skin than the lighter pillar.

Wow, where do I find this? Why is it always so unfair that a great fragrance is not being sold in US? Edit: I finally purchased this and this is much better than original. It smells richer and more spicier.

Oh, this is delicious. Absolutely lovely. I bought this as a blind buy very recently, for some reason the womanity line always stood out to me but for the longest time (perhaps I was too young for the scent profile to appeal to me, and found the bottle a bit too gaudy too) but suddenly overnight everything about it suddenly appealed to me. I therefore got the flanker with the best reviews, and was not disappointed. At first I thought, 'fig chutney'? I would be smelling like an English Bed and Breakfast but the vibe could be anything but. To me, the scent would be purple - a slightly dark, brooding but very seductive, blooming purple. It would belong to a young girl who is wise for her age, well schooled in the language of love through her adventures - no doubt she's gone through a string of lovers that were no good or definitely older enough to raise a few eyebrows - yet she's remained supple, strong, even happy, ready to take on the world with the outlook that 'the best is yet to come.' After all, she is still young. For some reason, perhaps be it that I'm a 90s kid, the person I think of who would wear this would be witch Stormy of the Trix from Winx Club - temperamental, scrappy but in a good way. She is the youngest, and wear something fruitier than her sisters, while oldest Icy would prefer Angel, something sugar sweet yet deadly to cement herself as Alpha girl while middle child Darcy would wear Alien - feminine, graceful yet animalic, all about that mind control. But Stormy holds her own against her older sisters with a distinct personality and knowing exactly what she wants - she is possibly the most driven of them all, and man, she's cute as hell when she gets angry. So yes, she may be one of the villains, but aren't villains all the more interesting? ;) On me, I don't much of the aquatic influence, I get all the sugar, the fruit and spices, which I am not complaining about. Or perhaps it is so well blended the salty caviar doesn't jump out like something that shouldn't belong there; it is a really cohesive concoction and I get what it's all about. Sillage is also great as perfume tends to wash off of me really quickly, but this is sticking on me 7+ hours, even after I go swimming. Definitely signature perfume material. And my new signature.

This is stunning! Wow. I have always been a little sceptical of the original Womanity just because it was sort of odd. But I couldn't resist testing the enhanced version just because it sounded intriguing. This is unbelievable - I was tempted to play it safe and go with the Alien enhanced version but I just had to go for it. I cannot stop sniffing my wrist. I have found a gem here. You must try it and give it a few minutes to do it's thing.

As someone who loves Mugler I tend to favor collecting more of the different variations of the Womanity line. These are getting hard to find soon enough and the Liqueur is almost impossible to find..it still has all the same notes of the original Womanity with the strawberries, figs, fig green leaves but says it has a fig chutney note to it..to me as it dries down the nuttiness begins to appear more but only slightly and then when it dries down you smell the nuttiness with the rest of the fragrance being a tad bit smoky dry but nothing with texture..this does smell sweeter than the Liqueur de Perfum and more closer to the original Womanity but the differences are trivial..they are all the same scent of Womanity but in my opinion the two that were the most different during those years were the 2009 Alien Liqueur De Perfum for it's focus on the cherried almonds, rum and woods and Alien Absolue just for the emphasis on the smoother jasmine and fluffy amber and vanilla dry down..but Alien Liqueur 2009 is closer to the original Alien and reminds me of the sharpness of the Alien I remember so I will cherish that one a lot..but i love the original and those two equally and can't part from them and will use them sparingly since they are older and not readily available..as for these different variations..it was fun collecting the bottles but like i said before save your money if you don't want the same scent and you were thinking you were going to get these extremely different fragrance variations..your not..they are all the same..but I still love them and treasure them and I can re-use these refillable bottles..I thought they weren't but they are.. so you can enjoy the different variations of bottles you like more..also I haven't tried womanity aqua chic but so far i would say out of all of them I have tried that the womanity les parfums de cuir is the most different out of them all yet still very close to the original..have fun collecting!

Womanity is such a love it or hate it kind of fragrance, but in my opinion, this Taste of Fragrance flanker is more likely to impress. It is less sharp, better balanced and richer on the skin, with the fig chutney really shining through. I can wear Taste of Fragrance Womanity with ease, as I don't fear that anyone would ever find themselves offended by the way I smell. The odd, fishy caviar accord is all but diminished, and the fig accord is a lot more foody and polite. It's difficult to classify this fragrance, as it's not quite a gourmand, but not a fruity floral or an aquatic either. If anything, it's a unique and fresh take on fig; both tasty and tangy. For those of you that are avoiding this fragrance due to an intense dislike for the original, you should give it a chance. You may be surprised. While the majority of Thierry Mugler flankers can be tedious at the best of times, I'm really loving this Taste of Fragrance range. The added gourmand qualities have really 'amped up' and improved the overall compositions, while remaining true to the originals. Fig chutney goes perfectly with Womanity. Unfortunately the lasting strength wasn't fantastic on my skin. The sillage wasn't as powerful as I thought it might be either, tending to soften after the strong fig opening. I will be using up my sample, but in regards to buying a full bottle, I'm undecided.

It’s the beginning of summer and I just got back from Hawaii. I am only just home now for two days and I am deeply missing the island. On my last day at the beach, a young woman was spraying something on her friend... the scent of it was sooo refreshing, wonderful, and unusual, I had to walk up to her and ask her what it was. Unfathomably, It was some kind of Hawaiian tropic body spray. It reminded me full stop of this womanity flanker, which I had left at home, and I suddenly really wished I had brought it with me. I suddenly NEEDED to smell like this again. So, longing wistfully for Hawaii, I sprayed on Womanity today... and this is the first time I’ve worn this perfume with total confidence and abandon. I expect I will wear this a lot this summer.... all because of that “hawaiian tropic” on my last day at the beaches of Hawaii. Once again, to my nose this frag is heady full bodied ocean air, blue skies, sand sticking to tanned skin, romping good times on a hot day, and fresh grapefruit, or carbonated grapefruit soda. The pink variety. Of course. PS. Someone said this is a fragrance only for blondes. I am a dark brunette, ... olive skinned. This fits any woman... who loves it.

I am probably one of the biggest fans for Thierry Mugler fragances. I have a very large collection. With that said I have purchased several bottles of Angel and Alien for gifts to my mother, sister, friends, etc. I tried womanity a few weeks back because I was shopping around for my sister's birthday and my mother's birthday coming up and not to mention Valentine's day. Needless to say I give out a Thierry Mugler perfume as gift every single chance I get. Best way to describe the scent is that it is extremely unique like all Mugler fragrances. I picture a woman running barefoot with a wavy white dress on the beach in slow motion...Fresh, sweet, dreamy.... The sad thing is that I bought 4 gift sets to give away to family and I had my sister and mom smell it and didn't care much for it. So if anyone wants them let me know.... I have a couple of the original womanity if anyone wants them, let me know.

So many great reviews on this fragrance. For me, it is salted, sweet, figg-y, delicious sea air. To my nose, this flanker is not that far off from the original. Chutney, yes, ok a little sweeter in a caramelized, candied fruit way. Juicier- a bit?, just as savory. I appreciate and embrace the subtlety however and I am SO glad that there is more than one version of Womanity to love. To gush a little, TOF Womanity and Womanity are simply groundbreaking scents, as one would imagine/expect from Mugler. Fresh, and ripe and so unique...I wish there was another dictionary full of adjectives so that the same ones would not be used over again.. Compliments galore from this and original Womanity. With the right chemistry it is a show-stopper, so unique and divinely delectable. Bottle is fierce with the woman's face and chain on the topper. Love it! Sillage: 4/5 Longevity: 4/5 Overall Beauty of Scent: 5/5

Fig, Caviar, and Chutney... as much as I like the original Womanity, this is amazingly beautiful too. It smells metallic, with salty-aqua note, zesty and somewhat watermelon-fenugreek accord that makes this unusual but beautiful. I have never worn Womanity, but I tried Womanity Le Gout du Parfum one day, and it happened that many of my female co-workers complimented me on how good I smell, and they were like eager to know what perfume I was wearing, but I didn't tell simply because, not that I was ashamed of wearing "meant-for"-female fragrances but because of the name, I just didn't feel good telling them, "It's Womanity!" as I couldn't possibly imagine on what would their reaction be. All and all, both the 2010 Womanity and Womanity Le Gout du Parfum are beautifully made (the smell is quite identical), they are wonderfully gorgeous scents, in a way I would say powerfully daring.

It's always been at the back of my mind, but Taste of Womanity has really been my favorite out of all the Womanity line. I didn't want it to be my favorite as it is now near impossible to obtain. But it is... it's the easiest to wear yet retains the bold identity of the original Womanity. Taste of Womanity starts off with sweet, carbonated jam... The jammy texture is there but it's also fizzy and slightly effervescent. A previous reviewer said this was fig chutney flavored energy drink - I couldn't agree more. What greets us at the opening is what remains for the life of the fragrance. Overtime the effervescence fades and we are left with an airy jam texture. Fresh and sweet. Taste Womanity is the heaviest yet thinnest fragrance I've ever worn. It has amazing sillage and decent projection. It's not suffocating at all and just over-all really fizzy, sweet, and pleasant. Love.

Mmmm Womanity smells like a bowl of Apple jacks to me idk y but I love it!! lol && I do like this over the others its pretty much to me just a more intensified version of the orig.also strangely call me crazy this faintly reminds me of D&G orig. for men least just to my nose...I really can't believe this is going to be disc. already :/ well I guess if something doesn't do well it just doesn't do well...can't help that it does smell better on skin && it is a beautiful bottle I guess womanity fans just need to stock up there's a whole crap load @ perfumania well our store anyways I think I'm going to just purchase a lil .33oz just to have the smell to remember only the bottle won't be as nice...well w/e lol :)

Womanity Taste of Fragrance is Womanity made sweeter, fruitier with a hint of soapy feel and citrus. It is less salty, almost no animalic feel because the fruity notes were a bit potent that becomes a bit synthetic plus way sweeter than the classic Womanity. Eventually, spices (maybe the fig chutney) kicks in after half an hour mixing it up with sweetness and fruits. This version is no longer aquatic, not even woody and leaning more to feminine compared to Womanity that I feel could be unisex. Somehow I smell a vibe from Unbreakable Joy. Lastly, my two cents is I love Womanity Cuir version by a mile and by half, the classic Womanity.

As an avid TM fan I love all of his limited editions there is always something new yet classic about them and this is by far my favourite out of the ladies editions. Womanity to me was the sexiest most alluring perfume I have ever smelt. It always captures my attention. There is something feminine, yet strong and animalistic about it. In this addition the inclusion of the Fig chutney has made this a lot fruitier (when I mean fruitier the fig chutney is alot juicier and tangy) and isnt as heavy on the salt aspect. Give it a go if youre a fan of the original, I'd say this is a small yet amazing change.

An other beautiful limited edition from Mugler. Mugler's limited edition are often more interesting compare to the original. It's the case for Womanity, Les parfums de cuir (a real leather) and this one. I never like the original Womanity but it's an other story for Les parfums de cuir and Le goût du parfum. In both version the salty note is less present. Something I hate in the original. Womanity, Le goût du parfum is more tasty and make me like the fig note. I can't stop sniffing my arm and would like to try Womanity, Liqueur de parfum. When you try a Mugler's limited edition, I want all of it.

I am probably the only one with that opinion: The Chutney Womanity is not worth buying, if you love that strange aroma of the original. The Chutney W. is stronger, sweeter, less ozonic, less salty; for me it lacks everything, which I find unique in Original W. For the ones, who find O.W. disgusting, that one might be for you (and this is the target group imo). For the ones, who find O.W. simply a bad perfume, the C.W. won't satisfy you as well. I think, I save my money for a big bottle of the O.W., as I love and adore strange perfumes. C.W. is not strange enaugh.

For some reason my review below was posted as guest? A Taste of Fragrance Womanity – is a slightly sweeter, much saltier, ultra-dry woody version of the original. Asides from the fact that this version is less green and less intense than the original, the base notes in a Taste of Fragrance add depth and complexity. I love it from beginning to end but the dry down on this juice is simply marvelous. Longevity: Less than the original about a good 6-8hrs. Sillage: Does not project as immensely as the original, it starts of strong and dries down to a skin scent.

The initial spray is almost identical to the original Womanity; a decadent amalgam of ripe, milky figs and caviar. After the top notes dissipate, the rich, spiced fig chutney with nuances of burning wood (as unpleasant as this sounds, it lends a lot of depth and complexity that the original lacks) is introduced and the caviar accord possesses a more potent metallic, savoury aroma. This is a gourmand rendition of Womanity that is far more sensual and rich, ideal for cold winter months due to the overall warmth of the composition. Absolutely divine!

Beautiful. All the warmth of the original, intensified. The original womanity is a tom boy, frolicking on the beach during summer vacation on Martha's Vineyard. Building sandcastles with the boys. But in this one, womanity is no longer a little girl. She arrives at Martha's vineyard one summer, and she is all grown up. The boys watch in awe as she perches on a rock, the waves crashing at her feet. Her curls blowing in the wind. She soaks in the sun. The boys whisper to each other.. " It's definitely her, but something has changed!" Love this one.

I have certainly given this one a fair trial. Tested it, foolishly, on my person, caught a couple of molecules on my coat, and as I was away at the seaside, couldn't put the coat into the cleaners. Five days later, I am still overpowered by the smell. I shall for evermore associate Brighton with Womanity Special Edition. I don't hate it, but I don't love it either. Seems very little different to the original, maybe slightly saltier. It's an unusual fragrance, but not a pleasant one in my opinion. However, 14/10 for longevity.
