Incredible Things

The base of this perfume, which many associate with the smell of "men's cologne" is Vetiver. This is indeed quite similar to Lancôme's Hypnose for women, which I own and appreciate as well. Hypnose is also a strong vetiver based scent. To many noses, vetiver imitates anise or what some refer to as a "black licorice" scent. This scent is what I would refer to as "beguiling". It is soft, yet strong. Powdery, yet intense, sweet yet balanced. It whispers intrigue and people are drawn to the uniqueness of the perfume. I am in love with the price point and grabbed another bottle to stow away. I personally find this scent to be incredibly comforting and perfect for me for rainy Spring weather. The vetiver definitely has a masculine vibe, and you need to appreciate that all encompassing note in order to enjoy this. Vanilla and the imitation suede note (well done, btw), take a middle seat, and I smell absolutely not one drop of coconut whatsoever. I actually like the opaque glass bottle...pretty watercolors and it "goes" with the smell inside. The gold cap won't stay on my bottle and is a pain to try to snap on. Ball dropped big time with quality control there. I do not base my reviews of celebrity endorsed scents on the celebrity whatsoever, but on the nose and house that created the scent, and of course the scent itself. I do not know much about Taylor Swift, but she sure signed her name to a few good concoctions. If you want to try an inexpensive scent that is unique, unisex, utterly intriguing and doesn't smell like a run of the mill juicy fruit celebrity scent, give this a shot. If you don't like it, I'll gladly take it off of your hands. If you like Hypnose, you will LOVE the price tag of this bottle containing~ Vanilla, suede, amber & vetiver...all which truly are "Incredible Things". XO

First things first: What a nice surprise! I received this one as a gift and sprayed it on about an hour ago. I'm so delighted that I want to quickly share my experience with you :) The box and bottle of Incredible Things are very pretty and the bottle is quite handy. I have the 50ml and could easily put it in my bag. For me that's always a plus. The shape of the bottle also keeps it from being too girly. Now the scent is not as easy as I first thought: First spray - fruity and beachy, reminiscent of Miami Glow. I see that other members have detected that as well and I agree! "Ok", I thought and continued with my work as I know that we haven't entered the interesting part yet - the development on my skin. What I smell now I love - after the fruity and beachy notes fade (I think it's a mix of the top notes with the Passion Flower) Incredible Things becomes musky, creamy and slightly leathery + peppery, with little hints of the flowers. I can smell the vanilla but it's rather dry and not as edible as in other scents. It's sweet, yes, but very chic and rather a dry sweetness. Think Manifesto, maybe? I suppose that the Vetiver and Pepper add a little masculine touch to it. It's really not easy to describe but I love it. And I see that my text is getting longer as I wanted it to! :) Will wear it out this week and see how I feel about it but I recommend checking this one out. It really is different! Think a mix of Miami Glow (little cup), Hypnose (medium) and a good handful of suede and pepper. Nice :)

I'm a 23 year old male and I am proudly on my second bottle of Incredible Things. I was on a work trip, and happened to score tickets to The 1989 World Tour the night I touched down in Minneapolis. I was at Target a few hours before the show stocking up on toiletries when I saw the bottle in the fragrance section. I laughed, thought, "what the hell, I'm going to the concert, might as well," and sprayed it on. For the next 20 minutes around the store, I would get subtle whiffs of something smelling fantastic, only to realize it was me. I ran back, impulse bought it, and never looked back. Every time I wear it, I am transported to colder, foggier days I spent holed up in a coffee shop with a mocha and a book. It's comforting, and I wear it when I'm stressed or nervous so as to calm down. I get the vanilla and the pink pepper most strongly here in the opening, and when the suede comes in, it gets an almost lived-in feel. I too, as others have noted, get a chocolatey scent in parts. It's subtle enough to - when sprayed appropriately - wear in any setting as almost a dirty little secret. I've worn it to work and gotten complements on it, and some of my friends have preferred it to some of the more "masculine" and expensive scents that I wore as staples. I will buy a third bottle when I run out, because why the hell not. It never fails to send me back to some happy memories.

One of the untypical celebrity fragrances. This smells like powdery marshmallow vanilla, delicate suede and tart tropical passion flower, rounded out with grapefruit, vetiver and pink pepper. It's a well-blended perfume where none of the notes is in-your-face. Some reviewers mention coconut and pineapple, and while I would never have thought of these notes by myself as this isn't beachy or very gourmand, I see where they're coming from. But in the end it's a softly sweet, very wearable suede and vanilla with fruity and spicy accents. There are also many comparisons to Lancôme Hypnôse, which I had years ago. They share the notes of passion flower, vetiver and a similar cold vanilla, but while Hypnôse is a bomb of these three notes, Incredible Things is more nuanced to my nose. The drydown reminds me a little bit of Guerlain Cuir Beluga, but not as a dupe and there is obviously a difference in quality. Incredible Things can keep up with regular designer scents though. It's a shame that this was discontinued and has gone up in price. I'm very glad I got a bottle while it was still affordable, and I would recommend it to anyone who likes this kind of scent, but I would not get it for 150 € on ebay.

I didn't like it at first. It smelled like powdered flowers but it is one of those scents that grows on me. Now I smell a fruity vanilla scent. I got the body spray and not the perfume so it doesn't last very long...probably 30-40 min but there's 8 oz of it and it is a lot cheaper. I spray it on myself and clothes and pillows. It is a sweet, soft, and gentle scent. I don't smell an overpowering powdery floral scent anymore. I do smell flowers, but they are fresh flowers. A little tip-perfume/body spray doesn't smell as good in the heat in my experience. For better results don't leave it somewhere hot or wear as much on a hot day. Also be careful not to spray more than one or two squirts because although it may smell mild to you some people are very sensitive. I sprayed some on myself, the air, and the pillows (remember this is body spray and not the perfume) so I used a bit more. I know it would have been worse if I'd sprayed the perfume because perfume is more concentrated. As it turns out my mom could smell it outside my bedroom from 30 feet away. I love this scent. My advice is to give it a chance. Don't give it once chance and then decide you hate it. The more I wear it, the more I like it.

Oh my soul... this scent is pure Heaven in a bottle for me! When this first came out, I have to admit I was a little skeptical. The bottle looked nice, but I assumed the juice would be another "generic" fruity -floral watery mess. I read the notes online, never really giving it much thought.. until one day I decided I would finally test it out! I walked into Target, not expecting too much, and I sprayed it on my wrists and I was stunned... it was perfect!! So creamy, sweet, floral, powdery.. and all blended perfectly into one scent! The pink pepper is the standout of the top, I don't really get the grapefruit note on my skin, it's not at all citrusy. The passion flower and vanilla orchid give it an angelic floral heart, it's so lovely and creamy and delectable! The suede aids in giving it body and making the scent very unique, the amber, vetiver, musk, and delicious vanilla just put the icing on the cake! I cannot get enough of this yummy treat! And the best part is... it lasts! Hallelujah! Simply gorgeous from beginning to end. Sublime. Celestial. Other worldly! <3 Longevity: 8 Hours before becoming a subtle skin scent Sillage: Moderate ~Never judge a book (or perfume) by it's cover!~

This was a nice little indulgence. I misted it on my arm on a whim at Target and was pleasantly surprised. Definitely noticed the vanilla and the musk, and of course with the grapefruit and other things it echoes Mademoiselle, but I'm glad I tried it on before looking here for notes or analysis, because if I had, I may not have tried it. It wasn't overpowering at all. My husband liked it, and that's saying something. It was lovely in a young, fun but not tacky or teenybopper way, if that makes any sense. Definitely okay for people over 30 (like myself) as well. It made me think of popcorn, cotton candy, rides on the ferris wheel, sunset walks in a park, feeding the ducks, simple pleasures like that. It was like feeling nostalgia about a first date in high school. There were a couple of things that make me hesitate about actually buying it till I'd worn it for several hours: for a few minutes I detected a hint of play-dough, for example, but that's probably just my skin and/or the rose shower gel I had already used. That play-dough note was faint and soon went away, and the drydown was very gentle. Enjoy!

My favorite cuddly vanilla fragrance! Scent memory alert: My first boyfriend's suede jacket marinated in his Obsession cologne with some of my fruity vanilla something all swirled together. Yumm... Incredible things has a rich, sweet, spicy vanilla with an edge. I think this is a high quality perfume. This potent vanilla blends with a leather musk, brightened by a fruity passionflower. I think the pepper and passionflower make this perfume interesting, along with the leather vibe, which saves it from being just another vanilla celeb perfume. The pink pepper is stronger for the first 5 minutes for me, reeling me in with a spicy opening. Then it just hangs out in the background, keeping things interesting. The rest is creamy-fruity vanilla leather. I really enjoy wearing this, as it has great longevity (7 hrs) and is a comforting, unique cool weather scent. Or even summer if it's not too hot out. I recommend it to folks who dig leather and vanilla. It's super inexpensive, too. Update: I just smelled this loveliness on a sweatshirt I wore last week- lasts nicely in fabric.

I work in retail and one time bought a cheap off-brand shampoo and conditioner from the store I work at. It smelled lovely, and I was a little sad when the bottle was finally empty. However, about a year later, I was emptying one of our perfume shipments to put on display, and I came across this perfume. On a whim, I set it aside and bought it after my shift. When I got home and tested it out, right off the bat, I had a dizzying case of nostalgia because it smelled just like that conditioner I loved so much! Incredible Things is soft and musky, and I melt into the complementary notes of vanilla and suede after dry down. This perfume makes me think of those first few days of autumn, when the air gets a little colder, and it just smells like October outside. This scent is perfect for a crisp fall day OR night, in my opinion. It's fairly long-lasting, as I can usually still smell it on me when I'm getting into bed. And the sillage is strong, yet not overbearing. Overall, I'd give it 4.5 out of 5 stars.

As long as I can still find this perfume, it will forever and always be my signature scent. I received Incredible Things as a birthday gift when it first hit stores back in 2014/15, and I instantly fell in love with it. This is, undoubtedly, my favorite fragrance of all time. It has the perfect balance of masculinity and femininity, and smells amazing in the spring and fall seasons. This perfume is so comforting to me: the soft spiciness of the pink pepper, the coziness of the suede, and the sweetness of the vanilla/amber/musk base make this fragrance delectable and positively unique. My favorite trait of this fragrance has to be its longevity. After spraying this, I wake up the next day and find that cozy base lingering in my hair and on my skin. No fragrance will ever come close to Incredible Things for me: it is so sentimental, and such a flattering fragrance on me! Here to hoping this discontinued gem gets re-released someday (maybe even alongside 1989 Taylor's Version; fingers crossed!).

To add on from my previous comment, this scent lasted over 24 hours (and going strong) on my cardigan I wore yesterday. I get this vanilla suede, almost woody masculine scent. Very comforting and oddly sexy. Like a cozy Sunday morning kind of sexy. Edit: It's been about a week, and for experimental purposes (must be the scientist in me), I kept the cardigan unwashed & hung up to allow air to pass through it (I'd think it'd be easier for material to maintain a scent if it was crumpled up with nowhere to dissipate). Since Saturday morning when I first sprayed it, that suede vanilla scent is STILL THERE! Maybe I'll never wash it again, haha. Kidding. But...kind of lovely that it could be a scent that infiltrates everything you own, heh. Not good if you don't like it, but...that's not the case with me. I only have a 1.0 oz bottle of this and the animal in me feels that I need to hoard and by more, but...calm down. It is relatively new and probably not going anywhere, Elaine. And, it is so cheap.

I find it INCREDIBLE, haha, that I really really like this scent! I was not expecting to AT ALL. I did not know anything about it, and saw it in the closed boxes at walmart, but they don't have testers. I was in CVS shopping and spritz my wrists with it once, and I kept wondering what smelled so damn good as I was shopping. It was this! I think the suede note really stands out on me and is just so yummy. I think it is quickly becoming a love. I'm not a Taylor Swift fan (not really much of a celebrity fan in general), but I don't let that sway me away from something that smells great. I think this is quickly moving up into my favorites. It actually comes off as unique. I can smell it randomly throughout the day, but isn't extremely strong. I feel like it's just right. Time will tell if it moves into my favorites. I generally like a lot of different scents, so when something seems to stand out to me, I definitely take notice.

It's true - this probably isn't what you'd expect AT ALL if you've smelled other Taylor Swift fragrances. A quick burst of pink pepper melts in to a creamy, musky, vanilla-suede cloud with a little hint of vetiver... and stays there all day. It's gorgeous, warm, cozy, and pretty much the only thing I wore all last winter! Personally, I feel amazing when I wear it, and I'm super bummed that it's so hard to find for a decent price nowadays. I don't generally repurchase scents - I like to keep the bottles, returning to them every now and then to remember the specific times and stages in my life where I always wore a certain perfume. The whole Olfactory-Sense-Has-A-Strong-Link-To-Memory shindig. But Incredible Things makes me understand why people buy backups of the ones they'll miss too much when they're gone. I love absolutely everything about it, right down to the watercolours on the bottle!

Incredible Things is a perfect leather scent for summer. Starts with a refreshing, cooling burst of lightweight grapefruit mixed with a just a hint of pink pepper, completely wrapped in icy cold vanilla. The vanilla prevents grapefruit and pink pepper from being sharp. Within 30 minutes, the dry down is cold vanilla and deep soft suede leather. Passion flower and orchid add a natural floral sweetness. Chic modern very lightweight powder wafts around you, lifted by dry airy vetiver. White musk and white amber give Incredible Things lasting power. Leathery suede remains prominent, smooth, lasting, deep, rich, soft and subtle. Incredible Things lasts easily 8 hours on my skin with moderate to soft projection. If you love leather and suede, this is a unique, well blended, cool, perfect choice for summer day or night.

I adore this perfume. It is my favorite at the moment. There is nothing basic about this. I adore the vanilla suede combo. That is what I smell most. And the grapefruit and pink pepper intro is somewhat overpowering at first but I adore it now. Seriously this perfume lasts forever on me, especially when in my hair. I get so many compliments. The musk in this is very strong and lovely, I could actually see a man pulling it off very well due to the musky, suede vanilla dry down. I love this, it was very well done. It was the first perfume I ever paid full price for. Wish the bottle was cuter though and I could tell how much I have left. Update: Every time I wear this I receive so many compliments. This is my most complimented perfume, by both men and women. Definitely my signature scent. Adore this.

Reading the comment below (thank you joliecat) I decided to go a little beyond my summer comfort zone (read fresh scents, Tommy Girl is a fixture in my collection) and wear Incredible Things on a rather warm day. So so beautiful! The review is spot on, IT develops somewhat warm and cold at the same time. Never cloying but with a steady presence and great longevity it envelops you throughout the day. Sillage is soft (also in colder weather) but that only makes it more attractive in my eyes. I am not familiar with the mentioned Glade and Febreeze scents but to me this is a spicier Hypnose and one of the few Vanilla/Leather scents I love. Very versatile! Imagine sitting in a fancy restaurant in Italy eating some delicious dessert :)

As a Swiftie and perfume lover, my life’s goal is to collect (or at least sample) every Taylor Swift perfume. This is the third, and I was lucky enough to win an eBay bid for a full unopened bottle at a great price! The most sophisticated and mature of Taylor's fragrances! The spicy and fruity top notes I'm not the biggest fan of. That's why I'm glad they only last about two minutes before drying down into this cozy, creamy, and sweet vanilla suede scent that I'm just in love with. It's light and becomes a powdery skin scent pretty quickly after the first few hours or so, but it still lasts longer than Wonderstruck Enchanted or Taylor does on me. It has such a bright and lively feeling to it, I really love this fragrance!

Disclaimer: I do not care for celebrities, and I do not purchase merchandise based on their endorsements. This review is free from any fan bias. I am addicted to Taylor Swift Incredible Things. Although it is sweet and contains vanilla, it is not a typical celebrity perfume. The leather, musk, and amber really make this stand out. I find this scent to be very well balanced. I am no good at identifying notes, but I would describe this scent to be sweet, rich, and heady. Although I typically like super feminine sweet/fruity/floral perfumes, I love this one even though I find it to be slightly masculine. It is intoxicating. I can't stop sniffing my arm! Scent: 9/10 Longevity: 8/10 Sillage: 7/10 ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I'm genuinely impressed with the latest three TS fragrances. The quality is good and they all smell very pleasant. So far, these are three of the only celeb frags that I've found even remotely bearable. This is a lovely fruity vanilla scent, sweet and warm, but well balanced by the vetiver and amber. Its a little citrusy in the first spritz, to my nose, but as it dries down it becomes more floral and woody. The vanilla isn't too powdery either, which is great. Plus the bottle is beautiful! I am a fan of Taylor, but not to the extent that I would have bought something of hers even if I didn't like it. But I honestly love this! She really can "show us incredible things".

For a drugstore perfume, this is very very nice. The musk and vanilla don't fight against each other and the leather is very subtle. It's a soft little luxury, like a plushy towel still warm from the dryer. A bad tester can smell like play-dough, so be careful. I'm so glad this was compared with Hypnose. I can sense that similarity too. But Incredible Things is, to me, more wearable. The stages aren't so sharply demarcated: With Hypnose, I get the sweet vanilla first and then the musky and spicy notes, but with I.T. it's all kind of continuous and harmonious. Well done, Taylor and team!

This has been a staple in my collection since it came out. I've owned, and emptied, at least 7 bottles of this and will continue to stock up/buy more as needed! The longevity is insane, still being able to smell it after a full day of work without reapplication. Love how velvety and suede it smells without veering into overly masculine territory. Taylor's most unique perfume, and one of my all time favorites and most complimented perfumes. If anyone has any dupes please lmk! I don't think Hypnose or Ari are too similar to this, so any other recommendations would be much appreciated!

I've been pleasently surprised by Incredible Things; it is a very different perfume from the usual celeb fragrance, and has great sillage/longevity. It seems to smell a bit different every time I wear it, but I'd say that the general essense is a creamy passion fruit and rum cocktail, with a vase of white florals next to it, all set on a pricey art-deco suede and wood table. A great mix of light and dark, summery & chilled, and colder days & warmth. I hope that this is launched in the UK soon, as I'm going through my bottle quickly - I've been wearing it everyday since I got it,

LOVE the box, but the bottle looks like a travel shampoo bottle. Anyways, the scent is incredible. I actually think this is one of Taylor's best fragrances. So sophisticated! The suede adds elegance since it balances the sweet notes. It also lasts a LONG time and has great sillage. You will get compliments. Taylor's fragrances are improving (sillage and longevity wise) since her first one. Taylor by Taylor Swift and this one are top quality and really have an incredible smell to them with perfect sillage.

Vanilla. Coconut. Floral with hints of leather way in the background, Girlie but slightly masculine, ...which makes this fragrance a "love" for me. Also making it a "love" is the fact that I was wearing this one daily when I began reconnecting with my daughter's father again after many years apart. It has been a wonderful summer that kicked off with the text "When are you available to come with us to take care of our passports?" followed by "Let's move to Germany." Truly "Incredible Things." :)

This is very beautiful. I'm not usually a fan of many celebrity scents but this is a little different. Admirable staying power, and that suede aroma (one of my favourite things) is lovely, marrying with the vanilla orchid. Gorgeous! Atypical, something I always look for. It's sweetish but in a cozy, warm way and not overly so, similar to Chinatown in that way (another winner). Really delicious dry-down. Impressive longevity. A shame it's discontinued now. Absolutely love it.

Went to the drugstore to pick up everything BUT fragrance... when i happen to walk by this scent.. of course I had to give it a go.. I was instantly in love with it.. its soft sweet but not too sweet.. so yummy for the fall (like a previous person said).. just have a smell 30ml bottle, but my have to go for a bigger one, I can see myself going through this one pretty fast, even tho I have MANY perfumes :-) PS - I really like this bottle.. simple & feminine.

It’s the most stunning sweet creamy powdery scent ever! I managed to get my hands on this as a literal child, I remember getting it as a Christmas gift as a kid. I loved it then and I love it now. This perfume will always hold a special place in my heart because it’s one of my first ever perfumes. Unfortunately it’s discontinued now :( I’m honestly thinking about going on eBay and buying another one before it disappears off the market forever

Shockingly a fabulous fragrance. I layer with the body spray and it lasts all day. This is not your typical celeb scent. The vanilla in this is done right not too sweet,warm or cloying at all. So it's good all year round IMO. Has extraordinary notes that borderline on being unisex. One of my faves. Not too girly and not too manly. Love it First note I smell is licorice...not listed in the notes but it is a Devine fragrance

I’ve had this perfume since 2014 and I have just a little bit left, I don’t wear it often because I want to conserve it. I love it and it’s very nostalgic to me, and lasts so long! I just bought Aero Ma Cherie and on my skin it smells pretty similar. Definitely does not project or last as long, and it’s not exactly the same, but maybe a good, cheap option if you’re looking for a dupe!

This reminds me of the signature sour grapefruit/ creaminess duality of Angel minus the patchouli. There is an edge of something like vinyl or suede? Pleather? It also reminds me of pineapple marshmallow trifle, like Avon's Eternal Magic. I've never tried Hypnose so I can't compare. Leaves a glorious musky pineapple vanilla trail, like a rich hair conditioner. Fun, casual, endearing.

i really love this perfume. it is more mature than her other fragrances. i loved wearing this back in school when it launched. really wish i wouldve saved more bottles. if any Swifties can get me a good deal on an Incredible Things set or fully sealed 1.7 or 1 oz please let me know. I'd love to add them to my Archive of Fragrances!

What a surprise! I've just tested it and I love it. Sillage and staying power are great. Seriously, only few spritzs and it lasts all day. A perfect combo of vanilla and leather notes. It creates creamy and delicious frag. I would never guess it's from Taylor as it smells so much mature. Definitely thumbs up!

Found this bottle at a drugstore for 8,- (Euro's) so I thought what the heck! Boy was this my lucky day!!! Perfect light,sunny,warm perfume! Reminds me of a sandy beach air mixed with vanilla coconut!Wonderfull! May also work for hot summer nights! Update! Longevity 7-9 hours, Moderate sillage .

This perfume brings me back to high school 🥹 This fragrance reminds me of Sabrina Carpenters Sweet Tooth Caramel Dream, although it isn’t an exact dupe. Something about this fragrance also reminds me of black licorice but not in a gross way? It’s a very pleasant scent🩷

I'm not a fan of Taylor Swift personally, but I have to give credit where credit is due. This fragrance is smart and sophisticated, and elegant. It reminds me of the beginning of summer. Very pleasant. My favorite of all of her fragrances. Taylor does not disappoint.

Okay so this is going to be a bit weird I guess but the febreze scents, the lavender and vanilla scent.... Well I've always been obsessed with it and to me this particular scent smells JUST like that ! At least to me lol and I couldn't be any happier ! Haha

Very musky, powdery with a hint of vanilla. I like this a lot and for me it's great for the winter months. The scent really radiates out but the longevity isn't the best. I get only a couple of hours before it mellows down and becomes almost unnoticeable.

I got it yesterday at the mall and it is incredibly rich and creamy. Very leathery with a hint of spice and vanilla (I get that the leathery note is the one making people rate this as unisex). A beautiful fragrance!

I just changed my vote from "hate" to "love". I thought this smelled nasty when sprayed on paper, but it really melts onto the skin and smells beautiful. Leather, vanilla, and musk. I've got to get this one.

What a shock. I scented anis and it's not even listed. It has some licorice/anis character in it. I don't remember my exact opinion of it but it wasn't awful yet not better than Wonderstruck Enchanted.

Wow! I wasn't expecting to like it but I actually do! It's so nice and classy. It's nothing like her other fragrances! This one is more mature and elegant. Her best one!

This is probably her best scent yet awesome lasting power with good sliage smells very vanilla floral with a ting of spice perfect for cool fall days great job taylor

Beautiful Incredible Things! All the notes are perfect. Lasts long, and projects very well. Lovely. Excellent, delicious perfume. Very Incredible!!!!!

OMG soooo good, this girls perfumes just keep getting better! So caramel, vanilla and creamy 10/10 for sure. Looove this little delight.

Used to be my signature scent in high school. I remember I used to get alot of compliments because of this. Too bad its discontinued. 😔

no notes needed for this full, powdery winter scent

Love this parfume, l think l should buy it

First time review :) Im not a fan of vanilla, not a fan of celebrity perfumes, but THIS one I LOVE. Heres my story... I almost walked straight past this at my local fragrance store 2 years ago. I got a wiff of a lady whom sprayed herself with it, which led my nose to this. At first approach I was like "naaa cant be", being that the first thing I noticed was this not so attractive looking perfume bottle, second, I noticed it was a Taylor Swift frag. A tad reluctant to try it at first but the smell was still lingering in the air I had to have a spray. Had a couple sprays, walked around for 10 mins waiting for that dry down. Within that time I received compliments by 2 complete strangers. I was like in a "hmm" moment? Then, I took my sleeve to my nose and took a good inhale..one word, "intoxicated". This frag got me. I went from trying to pay some bills that day to putting one of my bills on hold to go and buy this bottle immediately. I had no hesitations spending $85 New Zealand dollars on this 50ml bottle yeah it was worth delaying my phone bill for lol since then to now I have proudly purchased this frag 8 times. I wouldnt say I am an over doer with this frag, I do have others to wear it just depends on the day, the situation, the mood and the temperature. In saying that, I am never without compliments from females and male, family friends or strangers, when wearing this frag. Thats why I keep coming back for more! To describe how it smells, like black liqorice base, mixed with creamy vanilla in the middle, with a drop of caramel on top OR the other way around. I find it sexy, seductive, intoxicating and just soooo good. People ask me all the time what I am wearing, and I say "sorry, but its a secret" Yes Im being selfish with this one just within my cute little community lol My best advice on how to wear it best and to get the most compliments out of...flick all your hair forwards and downwards (washed & dried, product free hair that is) take 1-2 spritz towards your hair (not too close though as u only wanna catch the spritz end of the spray) then, flick all your hair back and take 1 spritz to the left of your hair and 1 to the right mmm hmm! P.s, I said early that the bottle was unattractive at first site. Thats because I fall hard for perfumes that come in a luxurious looking bottle. My opinion has since changed, and I like it for what it is now, inside and out =D lol My overall rating for this in terms of sillage, longevity etc.. a "phat" juicy 9 out of 10 :)

It's true that this is not a "typical" celebrity fragrance but that doesn't automatically mean it's good. Haha! I feel like that's a bit mean, but it's true. Something about this fragrance feels grandma-y to me. It smells "nice".. but boring. I can definitely smell the pink pepper in the opening. Reminds me of a way less intense Angel by Thierry Mugler (but only because I associate the pink pepper smell with that SO much). Then when it settles down, I definitely smell a lot of vanilla. But not in a sweet, youthful way (like Meow by Katy Perry, which I actually love) - more in a... bathroom air freshener way. LOL sorry... I keep it in my handbag as a last resort, to spray on at work when I don't really care about what fragrance I'm wearing and don't want to waste something I love, but I'd hate for it to be my only option when going out straight after work. I saw someone else's comment that this perfume came out around the same time as her 1989 album, so maybe she was aiming for a late 80's vibe, and that makes sense when you look at the bottle style (which I actually really like) and the smell. I wish that Taylor Swift would release a perfume from her "reputation" and "Lover" eras as I think that her image has changed so much that she'd actually come out with something a bit more fun and daring. EDIT: Ok, I think I judged this a bit too harshly. This morning I picked up my cardigan that I wore the other day and I was like omg what was the perfume that I was wearing the other day? It smells freaking amazing. It was this, and the dried-down creamy vanilla scent had stuck to the cardigan sleeves. I realised it's actually just the opening that I don't like. Probably the pink pepper because I don't like that note in Thierry Mugler Angel either. I still stand by my last statement though - I wish she'd do something new that is a bit more daring :D

Been a while since I've been on here , but today I picked this up for an amazing deal. I would say this is a modern versioning of the retro old timey ladies perfumes , and when I say retro , I mean going way back like 1940s - and to me that's a good thing. Some people mention this is an eighties flower bomb but I don't agree with that at all , this has much earlier influences than that era .Now Some may cringe and utter the worst epithet that can be used to describe a fragrance .... " Old Lady " But this is not at all "Old Lady " - this is a really good melding of the Old classics with today's trends in juices , which I think makes for a pretty cool concept and they succeeded superbly with Incredible Things. I don't care for the initial blast of the peppery flower thing but that goes away quickly and then this amazing combination of warm soft suede and vanilla thing happens and then I almost get a whiff of something creamy like coconut and then sometimes something like pineapple . Most definitely NOT your typical super sweet celeb juice ( which is fine , I lean towards sweets ) Its sweet but restrained with leather , very cool ! I also find the bottle to be different from the usual , white background with the watercolors,very pretty. Lasts about five hours on me , about seven if I spritz some in my hair.
