I had high hopes for Private Collection Amber and Ylang Ylang. Especially since the first fragrance in this series, the Tuberose Gardenia, was very well crafted - but then, I am not a white flowers...

I said no to buying this one again. Mostly because I can only use it once in a while. It is like I have to be in the mood. There are days when I think it smells really nice, I put it on, but...

This review is for the edp. I found this to be a pleasant, light non-offensive scent. For the price and the fact that it's so exclusive I was hoping for more. Not full bottle worthy in my...

For some reason, all EL scents turn on me. They smell so great on everyone else, but do not mix well with my chemistry, and smell completely different on me...not in a good way. Since I love Amber...

I think I like this a little bit more every time I wear it. It's a sensual, exotic scent, but not terribly original, and that's why I gave it a 4 rather than a 5. To me, it's very similar to...

I bought Private Collection Amber and Ylang Ylang in the 1 oz. eau de parfum size for myself. It's pricey for an EL. I do like this very much and is the best of the newer ELs, imo. It's spicy...

This is the ony Estee Lauder fragrance that I really like as it is a well blended scent. Combines golden amber, ylang ylang, vanilla, sandalwood and a touch of incense. Not an overpowering...

This is a pleasant, inoffensive fragrance. Subtle and clean, but not in the fresh way, but in a skin scent/sensuous way. Very sweet woodsy, and the amber is like a soft powder. It actually smells...

Bought this (myself) for my birthday. I thought I would love it and I do! Lasts all day but doesn't make others ill. Perfect.

I think I tried on the parfum, so this would be expensive if I buy it in that form. This is a lovely fragrance that I can still smell almost a full 24 hours later! It's a little sweet and...

This is exquisite! I smelled this on a mailer that I got from Holt Renfrew and had to go right down and buy some. Ended up getting the Eau de Parfum which is perfectly strong enough. It lasts...

This is just gorgeous! I've been looking for a lighter woody vanilla frag that is not sweet or boring for a while now, because I tend to the richer darker oriental style vanillas, ambers,...

YAY! Oh, Estee Lauder, you've finally created something that is truly artful. This is a very woody, dry amber with lots of labdanum and very little sweetness, and the ylang-ylang lends a very high...

I'm blown away by the latest offering by Estee Lauder. This is part of the Private Collection series, due to launch in late September '08, in 'limited quantities'. I don't have a list of the notes...
