Paris Hilton

I wanted this fragrance for over 2 years now, however, the reviews here and on other sites really confused me, to say the least. Therefore, I decided to do my own little review here, since so many people are having opposing views on this fragrance. I have bought Paris Hilton fragrances for over 4 years now and I have always been pleasantly surprised with the quality of the products. As a Paris fan, I have no problem paying the cash for her products and I don't hide them as if they're guilty pleasures that I should be ashamed of. I ordered the gift set, which contains the 100ml perfume, the body lotion, shower gel and a little travel size bottle WITHOUT KNOWING HOW THE PERFUME SMELLS. Yes, crazy, right? Anyway, let's move on to the actual juice. The first spray was... odd, in the best way possible. I did not expect that. You do not expect this scent in such an early 2000s, pink bottle with black stripes. This is NOT a pink scent. If you want a pink scent, go buy Aquolina Pink Sugar or something. The first impression was definitely fruity-floral. A lot of apple mixed with a swift blend of white florals. As the fragrance developed on my skin, I could feel the aquatic, ozonic notes. They remind me of days spent on the beach, in the sun OR childhood days spent outside, in the garden. There is definitely a green feeling to the fragrance as well, and the base kind of comes through the top a little, as a sort of woody vibe. I adore musk but I don't smell it at all in this fragrance. Another important aspect is that this fragrance gave me a funny feeling in my stomach, like butterflies. We all know that Paris said she put pheromones in this one, so who knows, it might or might not be true. It comes across as a very easy-going, confident, aerial and addictive scent. The whole Paris Hilton brand is built upon having fun and not taking yourself so seriously, so if you can relate to the core attributes that I listed, you are good to go. Buy it and you won't regret it one second. As for longevity, it sits very well on top of a cream, so make sure to moisturize your neck and wrists before applying the perfume, as it is quite light and can fade away pretty quickly. I also enjoy spraying it in my wardrobe, I find it gives my clothes a very pleasant, almost soapy scent. All in all, this is fantastic for spring and summer, for a person who loves to have fun and who wants to smell sexy yet sophisticated.

I never watched anything to do with Paris and can't say I care for her, but I applaud her for venturing into her own fragrance line. Her perfumes featured in several articles hailing some of the best celebrity frags, so of course, I jumped at the opportunity to try them. I blind-bought Paris Hilton, With Love, and Heiress based on notes and reviews and have no regrets. I especially love PH and Heiress. My first Paris perfume was Siren and I gave it away because it smelled like something else I owned. While PH isn't ground-breaking or unique, it's such a beautiful, fun, sheer, and fruity floral that doesn't smell like anything else I own. It smells exactly as you would expect it to-- pink, girly, fruity, juicy, and sweet. PH has great projection and longevity. It stayed on my skin for most of the day and remains consistent on clothing throughout the day. The melon, peach, and apple are dominant in the opening. The peach and apple notes are prominent even past the dry-down. What I absolutely love is that none of the fruits, especially the peach, smell synthetic. I've not had the best experience with peach notes, which always smell cheap and synthetic in other frags I own. This is not the case with PH. All the notes are well blended and balanced. I love the middle notes (heart of the frag) because they balance out the strong opening fruits and stop this scent from becoming a cloying sugar bomb. That being said, I don't care for the dry-down. I love the sandalwood note but can barely smell it. What I get is more of the dominant musk, a note I can only tolerate in small doses. My hubby loves this frag on me. But because of its musky, woodsy dry-down, I don't see myself using it directly on my skin in hot weather. I think it will become screechy when combined with fruity florals. I'll mostly use it on clothing this summer and will see how it performs on my skin during cooler months. I'm pleasantly surprised by, and love this fragrance, and can see myself repurchasing it.

I just bought this for cheapsies because I've smelled it years (a decade or longer ago) and thought it was a darn good shampoo sort of fragrance at the time, and I'm pleased to say my memory of it was spot on. Because it is. It really freaking is. Millennials are cool, because we grew up with a lot of this sort of thing, and the DNA here is both memorable and iconic. I truly believe that these sort of fragrances will make a comeback in 10 or 15 years, although currently they're probably considered dated. Which works for me, I enjoy being an outlier, and I don't smell this sort of thing in public often anymore (but also, I don't smell much in public anyway where I live). This opens so freshly as you'd expect from the notes, but it stays that way. I really don't get as much melon as apple, but there's something sweetly citrusy too that isn't listed. It's a fruit bomb, but a crisp one with enough balance. It's not *calone* dominant at all, so if you dislike that 90s style fruit scent you might still enjoy this. Don't let "melon" as a note deter you from trying this. I've smelled Pretty as a Peach from B&BW a lot lately because my daughter is hooked on it, and I immediately smelled a similar peach note in here. It's again, crisp, and not the canned cocktail peach that often is included in modern perfumes. It's not a dry dusty peach either (like Tresor), it's somewhat tart. This is laundryish, and has a super clean drydown. The florals and ultra-white linen musk smells like dryer-fresh clothing. Even though the bottle is pink, this smells very light green to my nose. The combo of fresh apple, spring florals and musk isn't *pink* at all. I include this in an elite group of freshies that I've loved over the years, including Tommy Girl and CK Be. This has everything you need if you want to smell incredibly clean, and the lasting power is really notable for this class of perfumes. In fact, it didn't die outside in the cold damp air, which I thought was admirable.

Do not ignore this scent just because it’s Paris Hilton! This scent brings back so many memories from my teen years, back when I was a young gay, confused about sexuality, still dating girls, this was the scent my girlfriend wore, and she was an absolute doll. It’s so quintessentially mid 2000s, it literally feels like those years have just been bottled for us to enjoy forever. Walking through my local chemist and seeing this on sale for $20 I could not resist snapping it up, and it was just as lovely as I remember. It’s so sweet, so intoxicatingly sweet, and talk about a good performer, I sprayed this on when I went to bed and in the shower the next morning it was still lingering around me. It’s a power frag for the ages if you ask me. Paris is a bona-fide megastar when it comes to the fragrance world, she’s got how many fragrances now? Almost 40 or something, you don’t get to have that many fragrances if you’re not producing quality products, and this is quality juice. Obviously it is indeed for women, and it’s very feminine, but damn I’m gonna wear this at home and to bed and I’m going to enjoy the hell out of it. YAASSS KWEEN! That’s hot.

Pale-Green Fruity Vibe with Dusty, Floral-Woody-Musk Undertones... This gets a lot nicer as it's drying down. Before the spray dries it's sort of chaotic, but within a minute or two I'm into the opening of melon, apple & peach but already the freesia, mimosa & oakmoss are swelling through a little. The fruits in the top notes are a nice blend - not too sweet, and read like pale green fruit and something close to pear, although at times I can pick out all three distinctly. As it transitions to the heart, I get mostly freesia & mimosa but the other florals are there. Lily helps to continue the fruity facets, while tuberose brings a faint pwdery, green-banana note. The base notes are supporting players, and help to continue the pale-green fruit vibe with dusty, floral-woody-musk undertones. After awhile there is also a faint shampoo vibe in the background. To be honest, I did not love the starting minutes, but the drydown has grown on me considerably. This has been compared to Ralph Ralph Lauren, but in the drydown I also get reminders of Dolce Dolce & Gabbana (original) and Curious Britney Spears. This has won me over. Enjoy!

OMGOMG after the dry down this smells exactly like when you walk into Meow Wolf, the interactive art installation in Santa Fe that I’ve been going to for almost a decade! Holy moley this freaks me out so so bad but in SUCH a good way! How is this possible?! It’s Meow Wolf! It’s one of my all time favorite places — once you’ve bought your ticket, you enter into the exhibit and it’s the “Mendocino house,” where it’s always night, you can always hear piano music and waves in the distance, it’s cooler like it’s really night although everything’s indoors, and it *smells just like this!* To be clear, I don’t think it’s what’s really sprayed there, but whatever they use smells so much like this. For this reason I adore this scent! I can’t stop smelling my skin... oh how I wish I was there now. And Paris loves Area 15 which is the Vegas Meow Wolf, what synergy.... Added: ok after it settles, 30+ minutes in I lose the Meow Wolf of it all. Then it’s just an average, nice scent... kinda floral-hairspray on my skin. But oh that short thrill ride this opening is for me!

Just so much nostalgia in a bottle! You could smell this on every other girl in the halls at school. For me, it was just so much more special than the Victoria Secret body sprays I was used to buying with my limited funds. Today, I am more of a fan of the bottles in the shape of a dress and they are just fun to wear with a good price. I don't expect much of performance as I do for other price points but they are not too bad. This one is just a fruity, sort of loud, sweet shampoo smelling perfume. I don't believe there should be an age limit on any perfume, smell is smell, even if it is sweet or deep spicy, just smell like you want to. Life is too short to worry about smelling too old or young. I have found that the people that get upset with perfumes being worn around them, just don't like perfume at all and are sensitive to smells. I don't imagine this offending most people. This can easily be found at Tjmaxx or even on special at Macy's often. Enjoy your life with perfumes of your choice no matter their notes. Happy shopping.

Don’t know why it’s taken me so long to review this! This stuff is amazing! My signature for YEARS! I have been wearing this since it’s release in 2005. I was a freshman in high school and the smell of this just takes me back to those fun and carefree days. Of all my perfumes, THIS is my most complimented perfume! Guys really love this stuff. I’ve had women ask what I’m wearing only to be surprised it’s Paris Hilton. My husband loves this on me too. I’ve had people ask if I’m wearing Ralph when wearing this. I own Ralph as well but I personally don’t find them very similar. Ralph has more of a sporty vibe. Hands down, I would choose Paris Hilton over Ralph. It’s a great everyday scent. Fruity/floral and sweet. It’s flirty and I love it! Not to mention long lasting! One of my top favorites for sure. I have gone through countless bottles and will continue to repurchase. I recently bought the anniversary edition as a back up. Love that this stuff is so affordable.

I’ve been in love with this fragrance since 2008 when I smelled it on a friend in high school and became obsessed. It’s absolutely shampoo-y, fruity and fresh. I’ve never understood why a perfume smelling like shampoo is an insult. Guess not everyone is trying to smell like an early 2000s Garnier Fructis commercial, but I certainly am. And if you’re in the same boat — do I have the scent for you. I will say, as an adult, the melon note is absolutely heinous on an initial spray. It smells grotesquely artificial, like something you would have fished out of the bargain bin at a Bath and Body Works circa 1998. But thankfully, the melon is the first thing to go and what is left on the skin is juicy and addictive. I can’t stop smelling my wrist when I’m wearing this. Maybe it’s nostalgia for a time when I wasn’t paying my own electric bill and Twitter was a niche website that had yet to ruin our lives, but this fragrance still slaps.

The second I sprayed this I thought "I've smelled this before!" That fresh melon places you right into a picnic on a pleasantly warm summer day. Who can forget that? I immediately placed it late 90's or early 2000's but couldn't think of what it was. When I came here to check it out, I saw that there are so many votes for Ralph. That's the right timeframe and I did have a bottle of that way back. It could very well be it. But it's been so long since I've smelled it, I can't say for sure. And it doesn't have melon. I get such a fantastic melon here. I will have to do a side by side one of these days, once I get my hands on a little Ralph. My only disappointment is that this isn't lasting long at all. An hour later I can barely tell it's there. It's almost more like a mist. I'll have to see if others can still smell it later on. I don't want to make the mistake of thinking I need to reapply when I really don't.

My signature fragrance... holy moly, I love this perfume so much. It was a blind buy and a total jackpot for me. It’s so sharp and fresh, melony with flowers. At first when you spray it, it’s got a bit of an alcoholy smell but soon it turns into this gorgeous sweet and salty unique floral ahh 😍 the most unique fragrance ever and I’ve not yet smelled anything quite like it. I have been out of it for a couple of months expecting it as a Christmas present but then I ended up getting something else so it’s time to buy another bottle myself...! I keep sniffing the emptied one I have. Gosh, I love it so much and so does my man. It’s my most complimented perfume as well. I have a collection of about 50 fragrances including designer, celebrity and even a couple niche ones but this one defeats them all.

This is sweet in the most beautiful way. This is very easy for a woman to wear AND collect lovely compliments along the way. Do you ever get worried about offending snobs at work with a perfume? This will do the trick. Performance is great it lasts around a solid 4-7 hours. PLEASE BEWARE: this will have you reaching for it over your more expensive perfumes in your collection!!! I will definitely be traveling with this gem and wearing it like it's Chanel or Gucci And when people ask you what your perfume is you can tell them that you decided not to break the bank with this one and still had money left over for Starbucks and a decent dinner at a nice place. Go ahead and try it for yourself! Even if you decide "hey, it's not for me," it's very easy to gift to any lovely lady.

This smells delicious. I love the combo of melon, apple, and light florals which are very happy, like mimosa and freesia, with a nice musk base and a slightly creamy soap vibe that doesn't smell too perfumey. I needed this in my scent wardrobe, and it is a lovely no-brainer. Staying power is around 5-6 hours on me. Not bad for an inexpensive scent that smells so beautiful and lasts most of the day. Amazing noses came up with this! Because this sorta smells of really fruity shampoo you could get away with wearing a little and flying low under a fragrance-free workplace radar-hehe... I also think this would appeal to all age groups- just a pretty, fruity fun freshy. I'm keeping this in my desk at work for a 3:00 perk-up. Very well-rounded!

This is my first review on here && let me start off by saying this perfume definitely smells more higher end then the price is sells for . It has a fresh out of the shower expensive soap clean smell . I don’t really smell the fruits besides maybe a hint of peach . The middle notes kinda take over the top notes . This perfume can be worn by anyone and I’m in my early 30’s and can still pull this off ; the bottle is kinda young but I mean it’s pink so can you really go wrong .? I gotta add when I was younger I used to think this perfume had a old lady ish scent to this because all I wanted was to smell like a cupcake - I do love my gourmands but this is complete opposite of that && has great lasting power too . 💜

This just hits all the right spots for me. It's fresh, fruity, sweet and clean, but without wandering too far into any one of those categories. In other words, it's fresh and clean without being headache inducing or sharp; fruity and sweet without being candy-like, gourmand, or sickening. The scent doesn't change much on me from start to finish. Mostly it just gets softer and I really Iove the drydown with that touch of powdery oakmoss. The edt and body spray are both good with the edt being a bit brighter with the opening notes and the body spray reaching the drydown sooner. Lasting power is all day on me sometimes. Other times it seems to fade after a few hours. Definitely one I reach for a lot.

really love this perfume as much as i adore Paris. she is an icon and this perfume captures exactly that. i bought this perfume over a year ago so i can give a proper review on this one. a very sexy floral scent, melon is very present in this one. perfect for spring but amazing for summer in my opinion. this is exactly how i would imagine Paris herself would smell. i rate this one an 8/10. longetivity is decent but could be better. i can get a couple hours wear out of this if i drench myself in this. this reminds me a lot of the 00s era and what a lot of women who look up to Paris would’ve worn. Packaging is adorable, enough said!

The original and in my opinion Paris Hilton’s best fragrance! I do like this one it’s very nostalgic for me and I have gone through a few bottles. I remember when this first came out I got it and it reminds me very much of high school and of my youth. It’s a fun fruity floral fragrance. A crowd pleaser and an easy grab. I like using this when I come out of the shower or as a gym scent. Light, fresh, clean and bubbly all come to mind when thinking of this fragrance. It’s sweet but not cloyingly sweet more like a sweet bouquet of florals. It’s very nice for spring and summer.

As so many other reviews say, this is a fruity & soapy fragrance. It smells like the air that hits you when someone steps out of the shower after using a delicious fruity body wash. I was genuinely surprised at the lasting power for the price! I applied it to both my skin and clothing during the morning, and I could still smell it on my clothing the day after. LOVE this perfume with my entire heart and I will never stop recommending it to people who want to smell clean, like they just showered.

Paris Hilton is a popular perfume that almost everyone has already felt on someone or has already worn it. It is a perfume that pleases many people, and especially men. I often receive compliments when I wear it. It is therefore an easy to offer gift as I never knew anyone who did not appreciate it. It is a perfect perfume for girls and young women but less for older women. I would describe it as seductive, feminine, sexy. :)

There's just something special about Paris' first fragrance, despite it, sure, smelling vaguely reminiscent of an Herbal Essences shampoo. It's Y2K in a bottle: juicy florals and fruits that make me feel like a carefree, sparkling sweet homecoming queen on summer break, back when going to the mall with my mum or my girlfriends seemed like the most gloriously important facet of my schedule.
