Preppy Princess

Aside from the name, bottle, packaging and the super tacky ring, I actually really like this. It's a nice, relaxed and inoffensive scent that is exceptionally light yet juicy on my skin. I definitely don't get any staleness like I occasionally do with sweet perfumes. Considering it's aimed at children, I was surprised by how much complexity and depth I get out of it. That's not to say it's ground breaking, but I don't need ground breaking for daily wear; I want something inoffensive that won't have half my co-workers asking if I was involved in an explosion at the Glade Plug-in factory on my way to the office and the other half left with migraines. I am quite happy to wear this despite being roughly twice the age of the target demographic at the ripe old age of 24, I just wish the bottle and name weren't so goddamned awful. I think they really prime people on what to expect from the scent, and those expectations won't do it justice.

I had a very memorable and sweet experience with this perfume. Got this as my Valentines present from my husband last year. At first he just gave me small box of facial set. I told myself ah ok, maybe he didn't have time to get me something since he's busy at work. Then the next thing he said is "Look, I just found something outside!" When I look at him, he was holding flowers with teddy bear, chocolates and the perfume that I really want for that Valentines 'Preppy Princess'. I really feel like a queen more than a princess;) Anyway, this perfume is citrusy yet sweet (not gourmand sweet) to me which I really like. The base note is powdery too. It's not overpowering. It's very clean, fresh and fruity. Very youthful. Perfect for summer though sometimes I think, you could wear it for night time. The only negative thing is lasting power but still a lovely perfume to me.

I stand behind spiritkind one hundred percent! I'm old and love this scent! I eat cookies too! I've wanted it since it came out. The kinda tacky bottle put me off a little (from the photos) and really, the bottle is quite pretty. Yes the packaging is for someone much younger than myself but I still love it. The staying power and strength are far above average so these aren't a problem for me. This is lovely and I just can't see why anyone wouldn't like this. It's fresh, bright, clean, and preppy as can be! I think the preppy is more appropriate than the princess in the name. I'm so happy I finally got this! I think this is a good blind buy if you don't read the negative reviews or judge a book by its cover!

I love this fragrance.. Its is fruity, orange and floral notes. I received tons of compliments from it. In particular an older males. Saying I smell good enough to eat. I have to disagree with coments saying this is for young girls. But everyones entitled to their own opinion.There is nothing immature about this perfume. Although the name may appeal to youth. I am 26 and feel sexy, and playful when wearing this. When I spray it on, I feel a sudden warmness on my skin. Its long lasting especially on summer day. It just seems to linger linger till the close of the day.I have about 3 sprays left of the 1.7 bottle. scared to spray it...ill hold on till ..I get a new bottle.

look. i am 36 and i think this perfume is gorgeous. it actually reminds me of a scent my long-dead granny used to wear...so i'm not getting this whole aimed-at-teens idea. i tried it on a whim, i was looking at something else and my toddler wanted to try a perfume, so i grabbed this and sprayed it on her. i couldn't stop sniffing her all day lol. i was at first hit by a beautiful bright bouquet of flowers that were sweet but woody, and later it dried down to a scent i could only describe as "toffee-apples". love love love it. and i really don't like most "young" scents, most are way to fruity/candy scented for mebut this has something wondeful about it.

this is 1 of my favourite fragrances to wear, even though I'm not a big fan of Vera Wang's perfumes in general, I do like a few of her perfumes, but I do not care for most of her other fragrances. However I particularly love Preppy Princess, it's a beautiful fruity and floral perfume, the scents are very strong and prominent in this without being too overpowering and it lasts quite long on my skin. What's even better is that her perfumes are generally quite cheap at Chemist Warehouse, I bought a bottle of this a while ago while it was on sale for only $30 for a 100ml bottle. Now this has become 1 of my fav go-to cheap perfumes to wear.

This scent has a nice sweet woodys note when it’s dry down and has a little bit of a marshmallow scent. It reminds me of camping by the beach and roasting marshmallows. This perfume I was actually going to post tomorrow morning. I tucked into bed and was wondering what the nice smell on my arm was. I regularly spray myself and had forgotten I sprayed myself with this perfume. I got up to see what it may have been and BINGO. It was preppy princess. Needles to say, I am not selling it! It’s beautiful. I enjoy it so much, I am typing this as I am in bed and ready to sleep. Go for it.

It's light and whimsical and doesn't take itself too seriously. Sure, it may have been marketed to the teen and college girl age, but anyone can wear it really. The opening is lightly fruity, then it goes into the light floral heart but I mainly love the woodsy dry down. It's got a nice 'skin scent' to it. Natural, clean and alluring. I definitely recommend it as a gift to a young girl as her first fragrance, but if you know someone who is mature in age and young at heart, they'd like it as well.

I just simply love this. And it's one of the first perfumes my husband adored on me too. I love regular princess so I had high hopes for this and was not disappointed. I'm on my second bottle and the woodsy notes show right away in this bottle. I wasn't crazy about that part, but they fade in five or so minutes. Love the rest and highly recommend. I do feel like an upscale schoolgirl when I wear it and I'm 45!!!! What a fun scent!!!

This is fresh and delightful! I feel a similiarity to Chanel Mademoiselle and Miss Dior (I own both) but it is more subtle and fresher. Great for everyday wear if you enjoy those fragrances but are after a scent that is not so full on. Definitely not a sillage monster but is enjoyable to the wearer and those close to you. Very lovely indeed!

I really cannot believe this is a Vera Wang. I think this is the best one yet. It smells so much different than the others. I think it is a fruity floral scent, perfect for a girls night out from my perspective. I totally recommend this perfume. Thumbs up to everyone who likes it!:)

I think this is just the cat's meow! I don't care for the bottle so much, it's a little dime-store-ish and a bit too expensive. I sure like this though! I'd buy it...I hope to buy it! This should have been called Pretty instead of Elizabeth Arden's Pretty. This is just plain pretty.

It smells beautiful and fruity when you first put it on, then when it dries down it has an almost flowery-powder smell and isn't too long lasting on my skin. I like spraying it as a room spray rather than on my skin.

cool stuff vera wang. it is a very rad pefume with plenty of sweetness and i also get a lot of floral. a very yong pefume. ideal for a girl starting high scool. also a good one for possibly a ball. a FANCY ball.

OoOoOoOOooOo it sounds as if they've tampered with this beautiful perfume. I was thinking of another purchase when I saw this at TJ's. Mebbe not now. Those last few reviews scared me. Think I might wait!

I'm so mad this scent is discontinued! It is an amazing scent and I only have a 30mL bottle! I hope it gets re- launched someday!

Why is everybody so negative towards it, it smells lovely and fresh, quite light aswell :)

I like this but it has taken several tests both on paper and on skin. The ring however is rubbish the stones fall out! I can smell a little Rock Princess in this at times. It is a smooth coconut smell in the dry down. It is very expensive compared to the regular Princess. I do want to get it because the suttle smell it has I like for every day I wouldn't wear it out for dinner or special occasion but it is something you can put on and not think much about it. It suits my skin but I find most of these types of fragrances do. If you like skin scents than this will suit you. I don't want to make a huge statement all the time with my perfume and I don't care if I walk past someone and they think I smell like middle school when I am actually in my 30s. I am light hearted with a good sense of humor I don't take my self seriously so I like this fragrance it suits those sorts of people not just young girls. There are many young girls who can't stand this perfume so each to their own.

Much fruitier and sweeter than the Original or Flower Princess. I can definitely smell the berries and apple. I get a very youthful, kinda cute vibe from it. I feel it has a little bit more character than Flower Princes, but is still easy to wear, safe, girly pretty scent. This is definitely my favourite from all of the Princes flankers I have smelled so far. It is very affordable so of course I got a big bottle I don't mind spraying liberally, but I have to say it impressed me with sillage and staying power. It projects well-around an arms length and I can still smell it after 5-6 hours. It might be a fairly common scent in the sea of girlish fruity scents, not unique in any way, but nevertheless very nice and easy to wear for everyday. I wear it on days I don't feel the need to make a statement or attract any attention, but smell nice just for me.

This perfume is the most unoriginal fragrace ever, but for some reason I still love it. For me, it smells exactly like an airport departure lounge in the duty free shop. It is THAT generic. It smells like a million other perfumes mixed together, but I always feel as though I want to wear it! However, by the age of 24, I think most girls have grown out of tacky blue rings and heart shaped bottles. It looks like something designed by a twelve year old. I don't know, I somehow don't want to like this but I really do. It shows that it's worth giving everything a try. I think this fragrance is so evocative of the excitement and joy I've experienced at the prospect of flying away on holiday - I simply can't dislike it.
