Ella

Ella is a beautiful, strong, sweet, fresh perfume, that lasts and lasts, and always brings me lovely compliments. It is beautifully feminine and attractive, and feels good all the time, in any weather. I agree with joliecat, that it is dry and airy - like a blast of fresh dry sweet air. It's gorgeous. And the bottle is super gorgeous too!!

This fragrance is addictive. But actually addictive. Smelling this is like a spring day in a bottle. One of the most beautiful light, non overpowering floral fragrances.

Hi I really wanted to know about how does this perform I cant.find a scent that stays and projects would anyone recommend this one? (Not even alien) new formulation

I only bought this fragrance for two reasons. 1) It was on a considerable discount in one of my country's trustworthy online retailers and 2) My monkey brain just was enticed by the bottle design. What do you mean, there is a mirror with a flap on the bottle, a rubber loop as well as rubber sleeve for better grip, AND a twist-up cap? I HAVE to have it. As if I'm ever going to go hiking with it and with wet hands whip it out midway to check my makeup hahaha. Anyway, it seems they did win some packaging award for this 'innovative' bottle design. The more you know. Now, what about the fragrance? It starts of very fruity floral. The mix of fruity notes and tuberose give it a distinctive gummy bear feel initially with a soft spicy undertone. I guess the spiciness will be due to the ginger note. I perceive it not clearly as ginger, but just powdery spice that might be pink pepper as well. The more the fragrance settles, the more the fruitiness recedes and the tuberose remains bedded on powdery woody vanilla. This vanilla is not a deep sweet cooky dough vanilla. It's more dry and powdery. In the final dry-down I could swear there is musk in the mix too, albeit not listed in the notes. On me even late in the dry down that gummy bear vibe keeps popping up time and again. All over this fragrance's character to me is sweet fruity, floral, powdery, woody, musky. I do like it, actually. It may not be insanely refined, but it makes for a good everyday mood-lifter fragrance. Sillage is moderate, but also heavily dependent on the weather. I haven't quite figured out what climate exactly makes it radiate more. I just know some days my husband can smell me when I walk through the room, other days it's only when I'm basically sitting next to him. One thing that stands out about this fragrance, however, is its great longevity. It lasts 24hrs and more easily on my skin. Quite impressive for an EdT. I really do like this fragrance. However, admittedly I doubt I would have bought it if it had come in a less gimmicky bottle. It's cheery, pleasant and solid in performance, don't get me wrong, but I wouldn't go out of my way to hunt this specific fragrance down again. If you're still curious, get it if you can get a good discount on it like me, or if you got the chance to sample it prior to buying. Solid like from me.

Identical to Burberry and Fancy Love, and very similar to Kathy Hilton's My Secret. Not a favorite for me. The bottle though is a winner! Coolest bottle of all time. If you can stand Burberry (I can't) this one is actually worth buying just for the bottle, considering the $15 price tag on FragranceNet. Edit: I no longer consider it identical to Burberry. It is in fact "Burberry on Steroids." I gave it to my daughter, who made the mistake of using 2 sprays. No exaggeration, the whole house reeked of it for 4 hours. After that, only the room she was in at any moment was suffocating with this stubborn scent. It lasted easily 12 hours! I truly can't even...and I'm a huge Angel fan from back when it made your eyes water. Dear daughter is now only permitted to spray once in the air and walk through...outside.
