This was one of my first "expensive" perfume purchases. I used to hate floral scents as a teen (was pretty much a musk person) because I found them too cloying and sweet. This is perfect for me, a...

Smells like chemical detergent. Absolutely repulsive!! EL has much better fragrances in their line - this is the black sheep.

Your experience with this fragrance will depend totally on your body chemistry. Me, I'm one of those sad sacks whose chemistry turns White Linen sour and utterly repulsive. Smells like sweat on my...

I absolutely hate this fragrance. It's strong, headache inducing and at it's base, I detect an odor similar to cat urine! Sadly, I wore this for a year...in the 80s. I had a boyfriend who adored...
