I LOVE this perfume so much! I have had a lot of perfumes but this is my favourite! My sister got a set of 4 benefit perfumes for christmas and they are all lovely and when I was smelling them all, when i smelt this one it was immediatly my favourite. I has a distinctive smell that if you smelt it again you would know what it is. Bottle is lovely and cute and it reminds me of paris or something. I will repurchase this again and again. It's sexy and pretty and just gorgeous! Love it!

I LOVE this perfume. It smells amazing and lasts all day. I love the packaging, although i wish it was a bit more secure to keep from leaking (especially when i want to bring it with me). The price is fine, considering i got the row of perfumes for 10.00...not sure if i would pay full price for this though!

What can i say...i had high hopes the bottle is beautiful and so cute and i loved some of the other crescent row perfumes but this is dreadful. It smells 3/4 like a cheap mens cologne and 1/4 a generic perfume. One plus i guess if you like the smell is it just lasts and lasts. Don't recommend.

Lovely warm scent, to me its a woody oriental vanilla, lasts all night and can still smell it in the morning. It's not a favourite but its definitely wearable and I love the cocktail shaker bottle!

Amazing scent. I get at least one compliment every time I wear it. The packaging is great as well, and even though it's a bit on the pricier side, I would say it's well worth it. I'm on my 3rd bottle now.

Would I buy again? YES, YES and Yes. I have a strange romance with fragrance. Perhaps it's the hormones/chemicals in my body, but the usual fragrances that smell wonderful on 90% of the population, smell like those aerosol knockoffs. Like Malibu Musk. I was at Ulta, farting around as usually, opening everything, testing everything, smelling everything, by the time I leave that store, my hands are the softest ever but a multitude of colors. As I was in the fragrance section, disappointed with everything, on the very last shelve on the very bottom were 5 bottles of BeneFit perfume. Hell, I didn't even know Benefit made perfume. I knelt down, threw my basket and purse on the floor next to me and closed my eyes as I sniffed one by one, the last scent being, My Place or Yours Gina. I ripped that last bottle of the shelf like it was the last piece of bread during the great depression. No one except me will have that perfume! And honestly, i really don't think anyone else was interested considering I was about the only person at Ulta.
I will start with the con's of this fragrance. Small bottle. Scent could last longer. Makes my dogs sneeze. THAT'S ALL! The pro's. This stuff is sex. It's woodsy, it's sweet, it's peppery, vanilla, and it melts into my skin creating this wonderful aroma that I am so in love with. My sister tried it cause she loved it so much on me. It smelled like ass on her. You have to be a special person to wear this. I love it so much, I swapped PLAY and DKNY PURE for one bottle of YPOMG. Love it. I will buy it over and over. $35 bucks. That was it!

The packaging is adorable, and at first so was the fragrance. I wish I had given it more time before I plunked it down on the counter at Sephora. I get the pink pepper and raspberry, but very little vanilla and no patchouli. I was really hoping it would be a nice dry down, but it just faded. . .

Not awful, won't break the bank, but for me disappointing.

on edit-if you like this fragrance you may want to try Caress' Scarlet Blossom Exotic Elixirs body wash.

I bought this simply because I was traveling and had forgotten to pack any fragrance. I picked up the lotion/perfume set as it is reasonably priced and out of the three was IMO the best smelling one. I don't wear it much though. It was fine for the time, I wouldn't re-purchase this because I have far better perfumes. IDK it may just be me but this becomes a bit cloying after 30 minutes and I just want to wash it off.

I'm upset that this didn't work for me. I really loved the bottle, the name and the price was reasonable. I first saw this fragrance in a magazine along w/ the other two scents from this collection. Gina was by far the best smelling one out of the bunch. I rubbed some off the paper onto my wrist and liked it. SO even said he liked this one. But, after awhile, it started to give me a headache. Later on that week, I went to the store to test it on again. This time, it was way too strong and gave me a headache again. As the night went on, it even got me sick to my stomach. I honestly felt like I had a nasty hangover w/ this on-lol. The notes of this fragrance all look good on paper and appear to be very pretty, sexy and fruity (all of which I adore) but, on me it was too sweet and woody.
