Can Can Burlesque

Just blind bought this at Ross for $17. Can Can Burlesque is a very pretty, gentle scent that has plenty of sweet raspberry, nectarine, soft, clean musk, and a spritz of sweet orange/clementine. Powdery and fluffy, it would be good for hot summer days, occasions when you don't want to overwhelm anyone with your fragrance, or even for wearing to bed. It reminds me a lot of Dolce & Gabbana Pour Femme (with the burgundy top), except Pour Femme has a subtle marshmallow note while CCB is slightly fruitier but still very powdery. My only complaint is that the longevity is not so good; it lasted about 90 minutes on my skin. This is definitely one to spray on clothes and in your hair, and to reapply often. I think it's really lovely if you enjoy gentle, powdery, sweet perfumes and/or want an inexpensive alternative to D&G Pour Femme. Overall, I really enjoy some Paris Hilton perfumes. Dazzle is a gorgeous cherry, Fairy Dust, a pretty white floral (says gardenia, but I get a lot of tuberose, like in the original Juicy Couture), Siren is an apricot/honeysuckle tropical thing, and Rose Rush, a lovely, fresh litchi/rose. Other than these ones, and Just Me -- which I didn't like -- I haven't tried any others. But they are ubiquitous at Ross and Burlington -- two places I regularly go trawling for new scents -- so I have a feeling Can Can Burlesque is not the last Paris Hilton scent I will try! :)

I was supposed to buy Meow by Katy Perry because I am a fan of gourmand scents (esp when layered with powdery or citrus scents, and this perfume lasts for as much as 7 hours! I even took a bath, and it was very impressive. But when I went to our local SM Watsons store, it was already sold out (within a week!golly). So I searched for a new perfume. Enter Can Can Burlesque by Paris Hilton. When I first sprayed it on, I WAS HOOKED. I know that pink champagne and VANILLA was really not on the notes list, but that was what I smelled, even like the MEOW perfume on the dry - down(anyone else?). With a kiss of raspberry, and clementine, it borders on being sweet, fruity, and gourmand.Only downside I noticed,(not really major, though)was that it only lasted for 4-5 hours on me. Anyhoo, a lovely scent for casual days in school or a lunch date with a guy you really like. But don't get me wrong, it doesn't smell overly sweet like those annoying cologne highschool students usually wear. It's luscious, and yummy, that I am oftentimes tempted to lick my own wrist.

I was so indifferent on buying this, because of what people said this smelling just like the original Can Can, but in my opinion they are only 75% the same. IMO Burlesque has more depth, than the original Can Can. Burlesque is more candy like, than the original. It's more like cotton candy to me. The original has the Nectarine, black current, and amber smell which is a little more darker. Burlesque is a lighter version IMO. I know a lot of people say Burlesque isn't original, but I'm glad she made Burlesque, because I prefer it over the original. Burlesque is one of my favorite perfumes by Paris Hilton. I don't care what people think about me liking, more like loving Paris Hilton's perfumes. I also think Burlesque is a lighter version of Dazzle. I really want Paris to make a night time perfume ( Even though I wear Dazzle in the evening as well as the day time ). My favorite perfumes by Paris. 1. Dazzle 2. St. Moritz 3. Heiress 4. Can Can Burlesque 5. Passport Paris. Overall I give Can Can Burlesque a 10/10.

Can Can Burlesque garners me a lot of compliments. Today a stranger stopped me in the grocery store to ask what I was wearing that smelled so good. She raved on and on about it. That is very unusual for me. Personally, love this smell. It's comforting and pretty. No, it's not niche or even designer quality, but it smells wonderful and cheers me up. Sweet fragrances like this improve my mood. The raspberry is great here. It's very sugary, not the tart raspberry of Armaf Italiano Vivo. It's more of a powdery pop tart with caramel. This is a whole lot sweeter than the notes would lead you to think. Definitely a caramel or dulce de leche note in there not on the listed notes pyramid. Almost as if it shares base notes with JS Fancy. Great sweet scent & compliment magnet🍭🎂

Oh, this is a beautiful cheapie that smells sweet, fruity, and clean. It's that hard to find combination of interesting yet inoffensive. Orchids and sweet raspberry jam. The orchids make it feminine and floral. The raspberry is jammy and sweet. What a great combination. This is my second review, but that is because Can Can Burlesque is so wearable and pretty. Only thing I don't get is the marketing. Can Can dancing, burlesque shows - sounds like it would be tawdry. But no. It's sweet and feminine like a baby pink cashmere cardigan with pearl buttons. "Baby Pink" or "Candy Hearts" would have been better names. Treat yourself to a Valentine's blind buy because this is a very sweet romantic candy hearts kind of fragrance.
