Amazing Grace Magnolia

fruity and floral; I don't get much soap in this (compared to Chanel especially). I sprayed it on in the morning and at work I had people ask me what I was wearing because it smelled delicious to them. At that point I had gotten used to the scent so didn't really smell it on me any more (kind of a bummer, but I guess as long as I smelled good that's okay). I like to spray it on before bed because it has such a lovely soft floral smell.

First of all, I hate floral scents. They give me migraines and make me nauseated. But this is one that I can wear without feeling like I want someone to pellet me with Sumatriptan and Zofran. It starts off as a clean, refreshing floral that is not the least bit heavy, then wears throughout the day into something that is woody and musky. I adore this. I would absolutely buy this again.

If you like the smell of Downy fabric softener Bliss/Amber Blossom then you will like this ! They are not similar but the scents would bring out the best in each other.

This is really good, and I actually (I'm pleased to report) enjoy it a lot more than other Philosophy fragrances so far. The opening is a really enjoyable fruity affair, but not *juicy* if you known what I mean. The bergamot is crisp and there's a little tartness. This has some character, although it isn't loud (probably nothing from the brand ever has been or will be), but it isn't at all unique. Still, the magnolia here is recognizable and it does have enough body for a while to be worth purchasing. I do wish longevity was an hour or two better, but it manages to stick around for about 3, which is passable, and some of that is probably owing to the clean laundry musk. It's *pretty* and entirely sundress worthy.

perfume for those who aren’t particularly into perfumes - no shade intended, what i mean is it’s really quite likeable and very inoffensive. if i wanted to smell good to mostly anyone i would wear this - if only it had more projection! it sits close to the skin which is unfortunate because if the sillage was stronger i would be inclined to reach for this much more often than i do. soft, flowery w a hint of citrus, powdery. very feminine and floral without pulling elderly and old-fashioned or too juvenile. sadly bc of the weak sillage i don’t blame other reviewers for relegating this perfume to mainly bathroom or bedtime use!
