SJP NYC Eau de Parfum

I love strawberries, so this hooked me in immediately as strawberry is the strongest note here - it wears from the top and hints remain as the fragrance dries down to a skin-scent. The osmanthus also is long-wearing and compliments the strawberry and mandarin perfectly. Out of the florals, the honeysuckle & mimosa are the strongest, and I get quiet hints of the rose as the vanilla develops - I also wonder if there is freesia here too? The floral bouquet settles into the rum & creamy sandalwood base really smoothly. The lasting power is neither outstandingly great nor terribly bad - it wears for around 6/7 hours. For the affordable price-point, I think that this is very decent. I love that SJP NYC has such authentic key note accords, and appreciate that the other scent notes are kept very subtle to keep the fragrance uncluttered and clean. I'm very happy with my blind buy of this and have been wearing it every other day, as it's very easy to wear. I'm 40 and don't feel like mutton dressed as lamb in it.

So I CAN like a strawberry scent! Maybe it matters that this one is "wild strawberry", as until now, every strawberry top note has smelled artificial and overpowering, and like a makeup/cosmetic smell to me. But tbh I didn't even know this was strawberry until I looked at the notes. It smelled like red berries or perhaps a more tart raspberry to me. This was love at first sniff for me. I immeadiately thought of the sugary fresh fruitiness of Police to be Woman, but NYC is less crystallised sugar and more of a fruity sweetness, and less citrus. But the overall vibe is very alike. I'll be buying this and letting it replace Police as my summer scent as that one is about to disappear from shelves. For summer, I don't go for aquatic green shower-fresh light airy scents. I go for sweet fruity fresh, but need them to not have such a strong woody or musky base so it doesn't turn heavy. Police and NYC are my only solutions so far :) Love it, and glad I tested it on a whim!

To be honest... this might just be my favourite of all time. While it's true that it holds sentimental value for me, as it acts as a portal into the past, into a particularly sublime spring and summer I once lived...it's more than this nostalgia and these connotations. It's definitely the pretty mist itself, too. I am a huge fan of refreshing, tropical island scents. This one is so uplifting. Never cloying. It simply soothes instead. Just the right amount of sweetness. I look forward to the weather warming up here over the next few months, and misting myself with this beauty...and reliving the love and the lust of a time gone by. Fragrance as a time machine. As if the domain of perfume isn't cool enough with its pretty bottles and all of the dopamine of a true addiction, and the way it creates worlds....it also takes us back in time to people and places that were once everything to us. 🥹🩷

This starts off smelling a whole lot like Paris Hilton by Paris Hilton but it quickly gets a little more boozey which makes it smell more mature than Paris (in a good way). It's bright and sparkling much like Paris and Versace Bright Crystal but it develops more depth the longer you wear it with the hint of creamy musk like lovely has but even more subtle. Strawberry is a prominent note but there are also some delicate floral notes as well. I smell the honeysuckle and mimosa. Lovely is my favorite and signature scent and I was excited to try another SJP perfume. This is a more young smell than lovely. And it doesn't last as long. Over all its pleasant and light. I couldn't see anyone not liking it.

Blind bought this out of curiosity and because I found it SUPER cheap online (used). I’m a fan of floral fruity perfumes so this was a big hit for me. I found this floral and sweet. Reminded me of my favorite Victoria’s Secret perfume which has been long discontinued... Bombshell in Bloom. It actually smelled EXACTLY like it in my opinion. I was so excited to have found a dupe! Then something horrible happened... cheap packaging! I opened to sniff again and the bottle slipped out of the darn plastic packaging and shattered all over the floor. Literally wanted to cry! Owned this perfume for a total of six hours :(

WOW! This one is definitely a pleasant surprise! A delightful strawberry daiquiri with a hint of soft musk. I absolutely LOVE the way this one settles into my skin...it is divine! Soft, fruity, but mature at the same time. I never looked twice at this one due to the loud packaging but I am so glad I took a chance. I got a set with a 3.4 oz edp and a rollerball for $20 at TJ Maxx. I do not understand the awful bottle though. It’s a tacky plastic casing on a clear unmarked bottle. I’d take it out of the casing, but then it has no cap. That’s my only complaint. I LOVE the scent!

Summer days out in the city in a bottle! Juicy Fruit chewing gum! Don't listen to people saying it isn't sophisticated enough or it is too young! These are the same people who will buy Yara or even Love don't be shy and yet it is the same type of fun sweet bubblegum/chewing gum gourmand perfume that you wear all summer long (day to night) when all your days are packed solidly with good times. Don't get het up about not being serious enough or niche enough or not being too out of pocket enough..buy it,.wear it and enjoy it. It's not that complicated.

This is wild strawberry and osmanthus heaven! Beautiful, quite strong scent that lasts more than you would think given the notes. I adore this, could easily have it as an everyday scent. However, I gifted my bottle to my teenage girls just now: I just want them to have this kind of beauty in their lives! The perfect gift for anyone - young or not young - who you think should have the perfect, pretty scent (my other candidates are Daisy Eau so Fresh (OG or Paradise) and Thank You, next 2.0).

I wasn't expecting to love this one so much! It was a blind buy, i found it for only 14€, so I thought why not - I wanted it for a while now so I bought it and I'm so glad I did. It is very uplifting scent, I'm not good at describing the notes, but I don't smell that much of a strawberry there. It definitely smells fruity but there is more to it than just that.. it smells a bit like a shampoo, at first it reminded me Midnight Fantasy, but I didn't like that one as much as this one.

Quite lovely at the start and throughout its life span with sparkly fruit notes and beautiful flowers... until you detect the blocking of a natural flow. I'm not sure how to describe this entirely, but it starts out (in one sniff) as sweet and heads into slightly floral territory and hits what appears to be the start of a sandalwood indicator and just... stops before you can properly smell the sandalwood and this makes it smell mildly of sweat? Not entirely enjoyable.

Off the top, at least, I believe this to be the best strawberry forward fragrance I have tried. So MANY smell like plastic to me which I detest. When I first sprayed this one, it smelled like I had stuck my nose into a bowl of fresh diced strawberries. SO YUM! Let's see what the middle and base do to it lol UPDATE: This is now the 2nd best strawberry forward fragrance I have tried. It is still a wonderful strawberry fragrance! #1 now is Fraaagola Saalaaata *SWOON*

I own the original edt version of this and they are identical, thank God!! The freshest, cleanest, most beautiful strawberry with a hint of floral and soaked in a creamy rum. Got 2 big bottles off fragrancenet.com for 17 and some change each so well worth it!! I unlike alot of reviewers find the bottle "case" adorable and when finished with the perfume bottle inside can be used for holding small objects and throwing in a bag or purse, genius:)

Lots of mixed reviews on this but I find this a pleasant, easy blind buy. Juicy strawberry and rum with vanilla is what I get. Lasts long enough for me to get through work. Better for warmer weather but I wear on a night out when I’m going to be inside somewhere hot and sweaty. Not the most natural smelling thing in the world, byes it’s inviting, pleasing and sweet. Good job on this one, SJP!

I’ve used this for the first time today, and for the last 30 mins I’ve been convinced it smells identical to Toy 2 by Moschino. At least on my skin anyway. Interested to see how this develops, but based on first impressions alone this is something I’d happily wear for my day to day activities. Sweet, fresh/fruity and very pleasant.

I really don't normally like sweet perfumes but this one just appeals to me. I get a very boozy strawberry. It makes me feel young, fun and free. The vibe is a Saturday spent strolling around town on a date with yourself! :)

I love strawberry scents and try to get them all and this one is one of my favorites 😍♥️🍓 But you have to like sweet, fruity and almost candy like scents, although this one is not so candy to my nose... I love it!!

She smells like your cool aunt who is younger than your parents and totally wants to do your hair because she didn't have a little sister. Youthful, fruity, but not "childish." Gardenia stands out on drydown.

It literally smells like a strawberry cocktail or strawberry margarita. Sweet, fresh strawberries with rum and flowers, perfect for a spring/summer morning. 10/10 worth it (the bottle didn't wow me)

I love that fragrance! Strawberries and vanilla with hints of gardenias and honeysuckle!

Superdrug have the 150ml bottle for just £16 - I might get myself a backup bottle.
