Creative

I have a lot of perfumes, and I actually love this one! I'm not sure why it's getting so much hate online - it is a beautiful perfume, BUT it requires maceration. I have had mine standing around for around half a year, and it went from a strange tropical smell to something ambery, mildly woody, very soft, with a beautiful jasmine smell. I find it leaning feminite, but my husband says it's unisex. It also smells expensive - at least designer-level expensive, at $15 price point...! I think I actually may need a back-up bottle. It's a VERY soft smell, though - one of those perfumes you can bathe in. Safe for small spaces and work. It's not necessarily an issue for me - I like to have a few such perfumes just for places and occasions where I don't want to smell strongly.

I had this perfume about three years ago. I find this story quite funny. I had never smelled the original Baccarat Rouge 540, but I knew what it smelled like (which is strange in itself, because this happens to me with several fragrances :-) ). I went to the dm drugstore and said I would try to buy 10 ml only. Unfortunately, they didn ot have a travel pack, so I decided to take 100 ml right away. I had to admit that I actually like the smell. First, I tried Cloud by Arianna Grande and unfortunately - there was too much disinfectant there. And there was nothing as smelly in Creative, so I was excited. The scent did not last very long, but I did not mind spraying it during the day, but I would still be careful - the scent can become overpowering with frequent use. I bought the scent during the fall, so I used it in the colder months. I do not know how it would behave in hot weather. The scent is definitely sweeter, but at the same time airy. Overall, I had a pleasant feeling about it, nothing heavy or sticky. What slightly spoiled the impression of the whole interpretation was the bottle - I am not a fan of these designs and I think the fragrance would suit a different coat. But since I have been looking around at dm drugstores, it looks like they probably do not produce it (?), but I am already getting a craving and I want to try La Rive Elegant Woman, so we will see :-) It is true, though, that there are so many imitations and it is losing its drive (you can smell it everywhere).

I can’t decide whether it smells cheap or not, but I freakin love it. I didn’t think I’d ever be a saffron girlie but I might have just become one. I hateee that the performance is so poor. I basically have to use it like a body mist and reapply every 2 hours which would probably be around 4x20 sprays a day :’D

This is an EXTREMELY affordable dupe for the BR40 dna, moreso the Pink AG cloud. However, it’s not spot on. I do prefer it over AG cloud OG, I think the whipped cream and coconut combined is a bit too much for me and can feel suffercating that’s what I think. This perfume does NOT last more than 10 minutes unfortunately, personally I don’t think I would repurchase due to longevity.

I completely disagree with the notes above. This is nowhere near BR540 or Cloud. It’s Burberry Her without the weird plasticky chemical smell. :)
