Girls Can Say Anything

I am really loving this even more so than Girls Can Do Anything. Btw they don’t really remind me of each other, well maybe slightly, but I would have to do a side by side. I am going to take some words from the pros list, this is happy, velvety, playful, sweet and uplifting. I really like the iris in GCSA. At first I swore I smelled rose, but maybe I was mistaken. I am not big on florals, but I think this is really nice. This is unique. I have over a 100 perfumes, but none remind me of this. GCDA reminds me of at least 3 perfumes I have or have smelled. This is signature worthy and would make a great office scent. Especially for spring and summer. I can really see someone who is a nurse or teacher wearing this as well. I find it comforting and safe. Another discontinued gem. Edit: I’m confused by the smells like and comparisons too. Blonde, Alien and Black Opium? I don’t think so. Those are heavy, this is light, airy floral. Maybe people are mixing it up with Girls Can Be Crazy? I haven’t smelled that. This is kind of similar to Girls Can Do Anything, but that’s the only one I can think of. Edit again: I was debating on getting another bottle because I only have a small bottle. But then I realized this is familiar and it is because it smells almost exactly like Missoni edt and go figure, another Bosch creation. I have a pretty good size bottle of that, that I got on clearance at Ross a couple years ago. This is maybe a little more powdery and a tad deeper, but it seems like Missoni is easier to find and cheaper so if I need to reup, that’s what I will purchase.

I just purchased this for a very low price. Having never tried anything from the brand I really had no idea what to expect. I am also not a huge fan of peony...but I like this. It’s such an easy perfume to wear. It hits a lot of the things that I enjoy (soft, musky, powdery) and has a soft sweetness that isn’t in your face. It’s very fluffy and I am not having trouble wearing it in the heat. I look forward to wearing it in the colder months...I think it will feel like a cloud of a comforting hug around you. It’s pretty linear as it doesn’t change much from the first spray until it fades away. Decent longevity with fairly personal wear ...it stays pretty close. I will say this is blended incredibly well...I can’t pick out many of the notes. It’s really a perfume about the combination of them all. Soft, warm, sweet, fluffy semi-sweet floral with a tiny vein of green. So am I wowed ...no. Am I happy to own it ...yes * but for the price I paid and not much more. (I see a lot of comparison to Black Opium which I do not care for and smells of an overly sweet synthetic mess to my nose. This is so not that imho. Also whoever said this remind them of Mugler Alien...you are WILD! ) ETA: the iris and tonka do their thing here. It’s not powdered in a baby / cosmetic powder way. If you are opposed to that.) **UPDATE: after a couple months this is now an absolute LOVE for me. It’s the perfect easy reach. I actually bought a back up bottle which I am not usually one to do.

Z&V just launched this one this month and I am loving it! I loved the edginess of Z&V Girls can do anything and I got a little sample at the store yesterday of "Girls can SAY anything". This perfume is sweetness with a rocky edge. First you get a lot of the peony, but the tonka and vanilla predominate the notes. The musk is quite present mostly at the dry down. I am a total sweet tooth when it comes to perfumes, this fragrance to me qualifies as a gourmand-fougere... although we have floral notes it is as sweet as candy. Yes it does reminds me a bit of Ariana's Sweet like Candy... my daughter's favorite. It has some edginess like Olympea does, but it is not salty and I don't smell any strong amber notes. When you walk around with this people will turn their heads, this fragrance can be quite overwhelming and so sweet it may offend some. So be kind with it. I think is a great perfume for a younger woman in her 20's, but I feel it is so femenine that I believe a 40 year old can get away with :) I personally absolutely love it! If you like sweet like YSL Black Opium you are on the right track here! No coffee notes but quite similar smell categories.

I do a lot of blind buys where i only read the description on here and decide if I'm going to like it or not. I purchased this one randomly at some clearance sale after being able to test it. Wow. This was a love at first spray. I would have NEVER bought this one after reading the description and components. It doesn't sound like i would like this one at all. But i do. I love it. It's playful, uplifting, sweet but doesn't make you nauseous. It has this gorgeous peony smell and a fresh kick to it. At the begging it smells slightly too musky, woodsy to me but the dry down is honestly just too good. The subtle tonka bean and vanilla that come out about an hour later are heavenly. This is the kind of scent that makes me feel comfortable, happy, confident, lifts me up and helps me get through the bad days. It's interestingly also the only scent that i always get compliments for, despite many reviews stating that it's extremely bland and unremarkable. It truly seems to be working for me. Maybe it's my skin chemistry that embraces this one so nicely. Of course the longevity could be better but for the price (it's often on sale) it's totally okay.

I got a mini sample of this and I love it!! its sweet but not overly sweet like candy, its feminine without being too girly. it just smells so nice and has a happy vibe to me. the longevity and strength is great too, strong but not overwhelming. I find the scent to be confident without being loud and sharp or heavy. its nice and smooth smelling , like everything is blended well. the name of the perfume suits it quite well I think, its feminine with a hint of sweet girliness and a little bit of edginess. But I also think this perfume is for grown women too the smell lasts all day and I just feel good when I smell it. I really like it right now during winter. its feels a little comforting for me for some reason. in the way a warm apple pie in winter comforts you this perfume has the same affect for me personally

This was a blind buy based on my love of "This is Her" for the winter, and a quick skim of the notes whilst standing in TK Maxx clutching a very cheaply priced bottle of this lest someone else buy it whilst I was deciding. What a great win for me! I really love this, it's very strong and has great sillage. The boldest notes on me are peony, vanilla, and musk, but there's a powdery background from the iris and a gentle spice from the amber, but it's definitely a vibrant spring-like amber, not a heavy winter amber. It's genuinely uplifting; a happy perfume that always gets compliments.

If you like Burberry Brit you're going to love this one. It's not exactly same but it's like an improved version. It's way more superior in longevity (12+ hours) and projection (it literally fills in the supermarket). This perfume is so good I had people stop me on the street, multiple times !!!, to ask what it is, never happened to me before at this scale. I'd say it's a very safe blind buy, unless you're strictly light fresh vert person.

The sweetness shouted out loud Sweet, cold, mysterious The first smell is very similar to prada candy But there is a difference when the smell goes down after 1 hours The smell is similar Versace Eros pour Very Closest.if anyone likes the mysterious sweetness You have to giit a try and Affordable price. I love it

Light, powdery vanilla, gives a cosy, calm and happy feeling. I love this is her by ZV but this one I guess I like more. People mentioned headaches and I can barely even smell it after spraying, guess it worked good on my skin chemistry

The scent that started my perfume addiction after I found out it was discontinued. Used to be my signature, and only, scent. It's been 2-3 years and I still can't find a dupe for it.

I was trying to find a simple everyday scent maybe two years ago.. I knew I loved iris, tonka, musk and vanilla.. came acrossed with this one, blind buying it and never let it go !

a cheeky, high energy pillow fight of a scent (a musky cotton envelope with leaves and petals tumbling out). i’ll wear this next time i go out dancing.

Can someone please tell me if there's any similar perfumes because the ones listed are not even close to this heavenly scent. I'm so devastated.

Have a bottle for sale. US. If interested please PM me. (Bought two and don’t need both ) reasonably priced.

This is my favorite perfume. Do anyone know where I can buy it? Can’t find it anywhere!

Fresh, warm, light, clean, sweet. I blind bought this and Girls Can Do Anything because I'm a Quentin Bisch fan. Never really dabbled in Z&V fragrances prior. I got both bottles for under $50, which is a pretty good deal compared to others in my collection. I recommend letting the bottles macerate for a couple days if you're having them shipped to you. Both of these were quite different and not so nice the day they arrived, but settled down and developed better after a few days. So the first thought that came to mind when trying both of these scents out is how theres something in the overall vibe of the initial application that reminds me of something Victorias Secret used to make between 2005-2012ish. My mom used to buy me mini gift sets of VS perfumes in college. I never committed to any of those scents so I don't remember any of the names or which ones were which. It's probably the peony, as I remember smelling a LOT of peony on teens and 20-something women during that era. I'm surprised these scents were made in 2018, as they both remind me of perfumes I smelled on younger women a decade earlier. Overall scent of this starts a bit more loud and sharp floral, and mellows to a "fresh vanilla musk" type scent. This one doesn't turn to powder on me, though the Girls Can Do Anything scent turns much more powdery and isn't as musky or sweet. This isn't quite gourmand. To me, it's fresh & clean-sweet. Like this is what I feel I'd smell like after showering with a perfumed floral soap. As it dries down, the soapier florals mellow and it turns more into a vanilla musk. Initially smelling this perfume makes me think of a slightly generic body spray blend, like walking through the perfume section at VS or BBW. But when I actually wear this, the blend develops very nicely and smells way better quality & more expensive than the cheapie scents. It's very pear-heavy in the opening and somewhat reminds me of La Belle, only more sweet and fresh where La Belle is sweet and spicy. Both this and the GCDA version remind me of scents I used to smell during the late 00's on hot rich hipster girls with trust funds, coke habits, museum internships, and degrees in fashion design, who watched a lot of Gossip Girl and barhopped wearing American Apparel bodysuits without a bra. I don't exactly know how I feel about that, but I like the scent! It performs and wears very nicely on me. I don't see it becoming one I wear all the time, but it's not like too many other scents in my collection and it's a nice easy grab for days when I'm running errands, grocery shopping, going to doctors appointments, etc. and don't want to announce myself when I enter the room or be asked about my perfume. I'm usually an oversprayer, but I think this one is better when sprayed a bit more lightly, so the opening notes don't get too loud. Glad to have it in my collection, I can see a lot of people liking this, it's a great in-between type of scent for girls that grew out of body spray and are just starting to get into perfume. It isn't the type of scent or scent profile I see taking the world by storm, turning heads at a club, or becoming a hot in-demand fragrance for gen Z, but I know many women who would look for something like this to wear to work or as a quick and easy grab, and it would actually be a really good safe gift for coworkers and relatives.

One summer day I went shopping and stopped by a local drug store/perfumery. This perfume was advertised there, I liked it at first sniff, so I sprayed it a little over my arm. After an hour or two I returned and bought a 90 ml bottle, I was totally hooked. It's supposed to contain notes of peony, iris, musky vanilla. I'm no perfume expert, to me it smells very nice, kind of velvety but light, vanilla is there but it's not taking over, even later I smell the same notes as in the openning, it does not change. It has good lasting power. It is summer scent, but not typically so. I expected it to be a good fall perfume, but it just doesn't do the magic for me now as it did in the summer (if that makes sense). I don't understand why this perfume is not more popular though.

I picked this up in TK Maxx like a lot of other reviewers here - and I’m glad I did! This scent is powdery, feminine, soft, a touch sweet. It has amazing longevity and sillage, I always get lots of compliments. At first I wasn’t sure. I thought it was slightly nappy (diaper) smelling, as when you open a new nappy and it has that powdery yet chemical smell. I think it’s the strong blast of alcohol in the opening that someone else mentioned. I don’t tend to notice that anymore though. I’ve come to really like this scent, it’s my bedtime scent because it’s soft, pretty, light and feels positive, just how I want my dreams to be! I’m really glad I have a full bottle and will probably re-stock once it’s finished.

Bought it blindly from an outlet sale and I quite like it. Probably wouldn’t have bought it when I had smelled it first, but still glad I got it since I didn’t have a perfume like this. Too powdery when smelled up close, but nice to get whiffs of it during the day. A bit like dove shower cream which I love <3 I think I have not smelled anything like this ever before, so I’d say it’s a unique perfume. But overall it’s powdery, bit sweet yet fresh. Little update a few days later: smells a bit too much like powder, diaper or pad. Still gonna use it, but definitely not my favourite. 6.5/10 from me

Right after the spray, it comes a smell of a pure alcohol denat (without any other scent notes). Then it comes out the fragrance of some kind of hand cream or body lotion with glycerin (I feel a note of glycerin here). After half an hour, I start to detect iris root and fern. On this stage fragrance start to feel interesting and cozy, finally. Tonka although is scilent here, but this is something catching. Fragrance itself it not oriental, not that warm. It is more aromatic, feels like some kind of spicy balm for skin or hair on a base of plants and roots. (herbal lotion))
