Now Women

I have had the "NOW WOMEN" by Rave in the pink bottle for the past (2) days and I can now give my honest opinion. The fragrance on skin starts out as a earthy fresh and fruity floral that somehow has a hint of mint on me that is slightly present then leaves within 5 minutes. My guess could be the "lily of the valley" with that freshness of clean floral notes with moss. Then I get this pillow sweet powdery note, which my guess is the marshmallows, vanilla, jasmine, and musk, that hugs close to my skin. I have recently came upon a video stating that it's a dupe of "Burberry Her" and I never smelled it before, so I will have to head to my nearest Ulta or Sephora to test them side by side to see if they are in the same family. However, I do have a fragrance on my shelf with the same DNA and in my "opinion" they are at least 80% alike but also different and that is Nina Ricci "Rose Estase" by the perfumer Francis Kurkdjian, that came out in the year 2017. He "Francis Kurkdjian" is also the perfumer behind "Burberry Her" which I find it interesting, that he is behind "Burberry Her" that came out in 2018. So, it's a possibility that I might like this (Burberry Her) fragrance because it has the same family DNA as "Rose Estase " Nina Ricci. Now that I see this, I believe Francis Kurkdjian has concocted Burberry Her 2018 by adding and taking away the notes from Rose Estase to make Burberry Her lol.....clever. Rose Estase & Now Women have similar notes like: Red fruits, vanilla and musk. Rose Extase has: Red berries, rose, raspberry, vanilla, musk, & amberwood. While "Now Women" by Rave has: orange, lily of the valley, red fruits, marshmallows, jasmine, moss, vanilla & musk. I might consider layering these two fragrances together to amplify each other. Also, I would like to mention the "atomizer" is solid black and its hard to find where you're spraying. So, please make sure you have good light in your area of your house to find the atomizer hole before you spritz on the perfume. It sprays beautifully, however, I can see that it will be a bit of a problem when you are in a hurry and need to spritz your perfume and you might miss the area that you wish to aim towards. Anyway, I really love this beautiful, sweet, and elegant fragrance. UPDATE 12/14/24. I have the sample of Burberry Her and tested it side by side and Rave Now Women is definitely 95% dupe of the original. Here is my rating of the fragrance: Longevity: 6/10- Last 3hrs to 6hrs Sillage: 7/10- Moderate projection Price: Good Value: 10/10- at $40 Dupes: Burberry Her or Rose Estase Gender: Female Seasons: Spring/Summer

I'm gonna be honest, I bought this perfume due to the hype on TikTok. And a lot of them said it's a dupe for Burberry Her. Do I think it's the perfect dupe for Burberry Her? Not at all. But it is a dupe for Burberry Her Elixir. The notes are way similar. Meanwhile, Burberry Her is more feminine, soft fruity scent. I've been looking for a sweet “fruity berry” scent and I've been exploring other scents too. One thing I know that I hate is, extremely berry gourmand notes (eg: BBW Strawberry Poundcake), but a hint of gourmand is acceptable. The marshmallow, vanilla & musk notes in RAVE NOW really stands out to me. I can't smell the other notes. No berry, no white florals. Quite disappointed with this. The packaging could be better honestly. I would prefer a simpler packaging, I don't understand the concept of their bottle? The design, the colour. But that's just my personal opinion. At first I tried spraying it on a paper to smell the first spray & after it dried down. I liked it, but nothing interesting. But after a while, when I came back to my room, I still can smell the scent lingering IN MY WHOLE ROOM. With just one spray, on a paper. Tried it on my clothes too, it last forever. My mom and sister also liked this one compared to my other Arab perfumes. Nonetheless, for the price and the amount you get, I think this perfume is great. Can be layered with other perfumes as well. It doesn't smell “cheap” to me, but I understand maybe to some people it can smell like basic sweet gourmand perfume.

Oh my, this is what I call a successful blind buy! I love both strawberry and marshmallow and I've been looking for the perfect strawberry marshmallow scent for a long time now. I'm not familiar with Burberry Her Elixir, so I'm not rating this as a dupe. First of all, the bottle is completely horrendous! It's huge, bulky and - in my opinion - absolutely ugly, one of the ugliest I've ever seen. I'd appreciate a nicer bottle, but the liquid inside makes it forgivable. When spraying, it's a sweet milky strawberry scent, similar to a strawberry milkshake indeed. This scent lingers for some time, but as it settles the strawberry becomes less dominant and it's the marshmallow's time to shine with some sweet vanilla. It's sweet, but not too sweet. I wouldn't call it juvenile, but youthful for sure. A bit synthetic, but that's fine for me. I see this as a perfect everyday scent for gourmand lovers, it can be quite versatile and would be a perfect signature scent. I find it particularly nice in this bit chilly spring weather, but I think it can be worn all year. It's feminine, inoffensive but still unique and recognizable. Sillage is great, it lingers at an arm's length with 3 sprays. Longevity is quite impressive, on skin it stays only 3-4 hours, but on clothes it stays 8+. My husband rarely compliments my perfumes, but he really liked it (and he told me I smell really nice 6 hours after application). Definitely worth the price.

Just bought Rave Now, HATED IT out the box, I'm just going to rip this review off quick like the band-aid it smelled like. To be fair as it lingered on it got WORSE! It reminded me of a scented panty liner in the middle of the room as I sprayed it eagerly like fool awaiting that magic scent that never came. It LASTED for HOURS! Flash forward I week later after reserving it for bathroom duty, I noticed a real change could this be the magic scent people were raving about? It is my understanding they use methylated alcohol in the manufacturing process.. so there was now HOPE! Hope which springs eternal in my mind. I just now gave it another try right after a shower, not bad , then like the eager fool I am sprayed that sucker all over.. yes I am radiantly shining in Strawberries, Vanilla, Marshmallows feeling VERY girly and very confident this scent will only get better with time. So for now I will take the top off my UGLY pink bottle let it AGE some more. P.S. I did see a sleeker clear glass bottle underneath.. ooh I'm so tempted to strip Rave now down to her core! Good times.

When I first tested this one, I immediately purchased it and I have never regretted it. It recently made my Top 5!favorites. The price is crazy affordable for what this little piece delivers - do not judge this hidden gem by its’ cover. This is such a cool fragrance. It’s unapologetically loud and in your face, but it’s not speaking nonsense. It’s confident in what it’s saying, and I want to listen. This scent makes me think of the colors neon yellow and soft pink — it’s fun and bright. It’s now been 9 hours since I sprayed this and it’s still projecting. I still smell it without putting my wrist nor arm to my nose. I smell every note in this, from beginning to end - it doesn’t evolve much and I can respect that. So if you love the opening, you’re set, because it smells the same through and through. To my nose, it’s powdery citrusy, marshmallowy floral. I could wear this daily and not get bored. For reference, I did 10 sprays and it never felt cloying nor overwhelming. On the contrary, my boss thanked me for smelling so good and making the office smell so good. 9.3/10

Smells just like Burberry Her Elixir! I have a sample of BHE which I’ve worn a couple of times recently and this honestly is almost identical!!! The only slight difference is the orange note initially but it’s not very strong and disappeared very quickly. I could only detect it when smelling closely. Once it faded after the first hour or less, I was then just left with BHE! This smells like strawberry, vanilla & oak moss to me 🍓🌳 Decent longevity and sillage, on clothes and skin I can smell it hours later. I know some people hate the bottle, I don’t care as long as it’s functional. I don’t think it’s very ugly either, I’ve seen some way worse ones (looking at you Her Confession) My only regret is that I didn’t buy this sooner- the reviews put me off as I saw some people saying it doesn’t smell of BHE but luckily for my nose these smell the same. So I’d say definetely give it a try if you’re a fan of BHE. This is BHE (with a very subtle orange note for the first hour) with a way lower price tag! 💕

I bought this bc EVERYONE said I should since it was a a beast mode that smelled like BH. I love BH. I almost cried thinking I received a fake, a screechy fake.That’s when I learned about maceration & maturation. I have had for 4 months, kept in my dark cold closet. I have tested several times, each time with improvement. In a hurry, I pulled her out to do football pre meal prep & serve, thinking it would wear off, & I would wear something different for the game. Nope, I just sprayed my changed clothing & topped off my wrist after several hand washings. I worked concession & watched football after rain in 90+ humidity. I smelled fantastic at the end of the night, she Raved all day & night. Because it will be hot here for months more, I will be able to reach for more often. She does not smell like BH, I assume more like the elixir. She is a soft whipped fruit with a creamy moss dry down. She is lovely & she has stamina. 10/10

Comparison: Definitely a Her Elixir dupe (way too on the powdery end to be like Her or Her Intense 2024), but actually more earthy greenness because of the moss. Personally I prefer Her Elixir over Rave Now, but seriously, this would be good enough for most people. If Her Intense wasn't the only one from the line that i want to own, I'd be buying Rave Now. Actual Review: It's a berry jam scent with a strong powderyness and a deep earthy-musky touch. Kind of gives me "strawberry jam with icing sugar in a cottage" vibes. It may not have the projection of the Burberry line but it's respectable. Longevity is just fine- Maybe smelling like a normal perfume rather than smelling like you've bathed and infused yourself in fake strawberries is more appealing to some people? Rave Now is a wonderful perfume and the price just makes it epic! Not a safe blind buy unless you've tried Her Elixir and love it.

This is my signature perfume. Absolutely my most complimented perfume and people ask what I'm wearing all the time. It smells as if Burberry her elixir was on the strawberry cake side more than the floral side. I loved Burberry her elixir and just wished it was a little more berry and lactonic. This is it. It lasts several hours, the silage is great. I do 5 sprays and it stays all day at work. Only $30 when I bought it and the bottle is huge. Couldn't recommend more! The opening is a kick of red berries, most notably strawberry of course. Sweet and powdery, but not potent like white musk. The dry down leaves the berries in the background and the warm lactonic tones come out front. It's wonderful for layering. In the summer, I layer it with Britney Spears Fantasy for a sweet cakey vibe. Winter, fall, and spring I've been layering it with Mix:Bar Honey Milk for a warmer sunshiney scent.

If you're looking for a fruity-sweet perfume that other people around you can smell clearly: get it. I sprayed it on me only 3 times and my friend could strongly smell it right away (freshly after buying it so it still needs time to mature). Does is smell like burberry her elixir? Maybe? I would say it's sweeter/more powdery and dries down differently but definitely gives off similar vibes. After 3 hours of smelling it on myself i can definitely confirm the moss notes because that's the main thing i can smell at that time but it doesn't seem to be the case with people around me. Usually after that time most sweet smells because nauseating for me and i start feeling uncomfortable but not with this one, it's more of a strong but refreshing smell in a way. As for all those qualities the price value is EXTREMELY good and i do not regret buying it, and it was a blind purchase.

I’m a massive Burberry Her Elixir fan. I’m on my third bottle, and never planned on stopping until I came across this. Usually Tiktok “dupes” are so far off it’s laughable so I never even tried to smell this until yesterday, and my mind was blown out. It is SO close, though not exactly the same, it’s pretty damn similar. This just smells like a perfectly powdery and lactonic strawberry. The only difference is the slight orange note, that makes Rave Now Women a little fruttier than it’s older sister. Anyways, I always justified 185€ for 100ML on other brands inability to make a good strawberry perfume without drowning it in sugar and marshmallow notes that made them smell like expired Chupa Chups instead, but this is 30€ for 100ML.. Diabolical work. 100000/10. Especially if you’re on a budget, but honestly this could’ve been more expensive and I would’ve been happy still.

I’m a huge lover of Burberry Her, the entire line so I’m trying this out for the day comparing Burberry Her Elixir on one wrist, Now Woman Rave on the other, and Burberry Her EDP on my elbow. On the opening, Elixir and Rave smell identical. And on the dry down they also smell identical. The EDP does smell completely different, more musky/floral on me so I’m not even going to compare it. I asked my bf which wrist smelled better and he said that they smelled the same except one was more subtle than the other (it was Elixir that was weaker). Wore it for 7 hours and the Rave Now won for sure, the elixir side was gone I would say by hour 5 on skin, while rn on hour 7 I can still faintly smell this one. And on clothes the smell is still going strong. Honestly this is definitely replacing Elixir for me once I finish the bottle. It doesn’t replace the EDP though.

I will have to edit this for a proper review (or rather my thoughts), but I am really loving this one! The opening is a little of a cloud that can induce a cough or two, but it quickly settles down to a banger of beauty and such femininity. I had gotten a dupe oil of BB Her to see if I liked the DNA before buying Her. It was nice and created interest in exploring BB Her, but I have just not had the chance. While out at Burlington, I saw this one and checked to see it was considered an alternative. For the price, I had to try. I am really glad I did! I get none of the harshness others talk about, outside of the initial spray. I have been sitting now working at my desk since applying at 7am and at 2pm it's still only a bit less of a presence. It makes me want to dress in something pretty to match the scent experience.

I LOVE THIS SO FREAKING MUCH! When it first arrived, I didn’t know how to feel about it. I felt white flowers and that was all. For me it was a normal perfume that I wasn’t obsessed with. I sprayed it a few times to form an opinion and the opinion was: nothing special about it. Just another white floral perfume. But after a few weeks OH MY GOODNESS. I smelled it again and it smelled like fluffy strawberries covered by flowers. I love it love it love it looove it 🥰 I only have left 20 ml and I don’t want to use it because I love it so much I wanna keep it forever ahaha. It smells like Burberry her elixir and the longevity is good too on me and especially on the clothes. If you bought this and didn’t like it, please let it macerate for a few weeks.

I purchased this for about $16 USD including shipping and absolutely HATED it at first. It was sickeningly sweet and smelled like a nauseating combo of fruity, cheap candy and artificial vanilla. Fast-forward about a week later, and now I can't get enough of it. Haha! It's still nothing remotely groundbreaking or mature nor does it pretend to be, but the dry down is a delicious fluffy vanilla marshmallow with a touch of berries and citrus. It clings to clothing for days, and I was shocked when I realized it was this fragrance that smelled so amazing on a sweater I was about to wash. This is NOT a safe blind buy IMO, but it's worth trying for anyone who enjoys fruity, sweet vanilla scents.

I LOVEEEEE this perfume. It has the most gorgeous smell. Definitely a great Burberry Her dupe, especially at the price it is. Get ready for compliments when you put this on. I sprayed it on my wrists, neck, and a bit on my clothes when I left for a trip at 6 am. It did have a somewhat synthetic-smelling start, but throughout the day it just got better and better. The projection, sillage, and longevity are amazing. My friend said she could smell me from across the room. (About 7 feet). I sprayed it at 6 am, it lasted through the whole day, and once I woke up the next, I could still smell it!!! It lasted till about noon the next day. This is absolutely a must-have.

My goodness! I have tried Burberry Her Elixir before and even though this is meant to be a dupe, it's SOOOO MUCH BETTER!!!! It's fruity, sparkling, it just puts you in such a good mood. When I first received it it was a bit weak but let me tell you after a month or two this is amazing!!!! I don't think I have any perfume that projects as much as Rave Now Women! It projects soooo much!!! And the longevity is insane, even on skin it stays for a whole day and it survives even after a shower. This is one of my top 5 scents of all time!!! I hope Lattafa won't reformulate it and make it weaker, it would be such a shame.

I love this. It smells so good and smells exactly like Burberry Her Elixir, which is why I got it. Since the original is so expensive, I try not to overuse or overspray it, so I’ve been on the hunt for a dupe. I kept seeing this all over TikTok and brushed it off at first, since most dupes of other perfumes I’ve smelled either smell similar but not exact, or nothing alike at all. However, this is a 1:1 dupe, at least to my nose. They smell exactly alike, it’s insane! The longevity is just as good as the original, if not better, especially on skin. I’m so glad I found this at Burlington for $20. Best purchase!

It does remind me a great deal of Elixir, but you don’t have to blind buy this. There are two halal grocery stores near me, one of them carries this perfume in-store and has a tester you can smell. Thought I’d share the info in case people wanted to try and smell this scent locally before committing to a bottle. I bought it at Burlington because that was the cheapest price I could find, one spray and a walk through lets me smell it just fine without it becoming overpowering. I fell in love with Burberry her elixir when I got a sample online, this reminds me so much of it and at a much more affordable price.

This fragrance has turned from an 'okay' scent to a love. The packaging may be plastic, but the scent smells anything but cheap. The scent has improved with time, I think. It's so versatile too. I can wear it to work if I spray lightly, or spray heavier for fun occasions. The red berries stand out the most to me throughout the wear. The marshmallow and vanilla add just the right amount sweetness. The moss keeps this from going to juvenile. Performance is solid. I didn't think I would enjoy this as much as I do. A very pleasant surprise! Projection: 6.5/10 Longevity: 7.5/10 Overall Experience: 8/10
