I can't find this perfume in stores anymore so I don't know if it is discontinued! I wore this perfume for 3 years and I found it perfect for every occasion. It was light enough for day use, but it was also musky enough for evening use. For some reason, the smell reminds me of leather and I have never noticed that in any other perfume. I also found this perfume to be light yet musky at the same time. 1 spritz was potent enough for me and the scent would last all day. This is not the type of perfume that people will be able to smell as soon as you enter a room. I find this perfume very similar to YSL Parisienne. However, Parisienne is more fruity and does not have the "leathery" note.

This smelled better when I tried it at the store than it did when I used it to go out. I mean, I got compliments using it, but I was disappointed in it. It was too fruity than what it was when I first tried it and the staying power isnt that great. I think they discontinued this too, I haven't seen it anywhere for quite a while now.

The first bottle i had bought was an anniversary addition i loved. Someone else loved it so much they stole it.
So i purchased another bottle thinking it was my signature scent. It was difficult to find so had to buy it and bring it home. I couldn't believe it. I had a terrible headache from a spray. Far too sweet the 2nd time around. It seemed like the sweetness killed the fresh flowery perfume i bought the first time around.

I generally love this scent, the only thing I hate about it is that it fades way too quick, and it is actually really hard to rebuy now. It is a very nice floral scent, which always reminds me of spring, the scent is not too strong, and it is very inexpensive which is unusual for YSL.

I like this scent with the notes of redcurrant, magnolia, musk and amber. It's sweet smelling but not in an overtly cloying way. The dry down is a bit disappointing...as there's not much really going on. I do have to reapply often to maintain the fragrance. I wouldn't repurchase, but will enjoy using this 2.5 oz. up.

Soft and flirty floral. I really like this scent! But it is fairly hard to find now.

I bought this product at the airport, as I always buy a nice fragrance for going away. This was the one I liked the most.
I found it was light and easy to wear. However, it is more of a spring/summer smell, and doesn't seem right in the winter.
The smell does not last too well, although it does linger on the skin for ages. Sounds weird, but basically what I am trying to say if that it wouldn't be noticeable unless close up.
I don't know whether I will repurchase, simply because I like trying out new perfumes. However I would definitely consider it.

Haven't purchased but like the poster below I have seen it at Marshalls 1.6 oz for 19.99 and the packaging is pretty and feminine so I most likely will get a bottle.I ended up picking out Jessica Mc Clintock over this perfume did I make a mistake? I like the Jessica Mc Clintock but it smells loud like fresh cut flowers and grass mixed! I am on the fence with the Mc Clintock for real!

Not too bad. I bought it unsniffed at Marshall's for $19.99. It's basically Babydoll with out the fruit smell... just a pretty cucumber melony floral. To me it's pretty ladylike. I don't wear it often so no need to ever repurchase... but I will wear for occasions I want to feel grown up. I don't usually want to smell like flowers though. Oh and I agree... nothing sexy about this... L by Lamb is for that! This is more of a job interview/ business mtg fragrance for me...

Glad I only bought a tiny bottle. This is the most generic perfume I can imagine. My nose doesn't pick of the fruity notes, since they're overpowered by the usual ingredients in every boring perfume. It smells like when I'm trying out different scents for fun in department stores and all the smells mix together. Just too perfumey and utterly bland for me. Too bad Ferragamo Incanto Dream was discontinued! UPDATE: I'm giving it an extra point for a discovery I made- while the strong actual perfume smell I find boring fades quickly, it leaves behind a light scent that you can only smell very close. While I wouldn't buy this again for an actual statement perfume, it is a nice up-close scent for a fragrance-limited workplace.

Pretty bottle, nice top notes. I smelled grapefruit on first sniff, so I purchased it. Too bad there's nothing underneath. It smelled very common after the top notes faded, and nothing special. Good scent for a teenager, maybe (I guess I should have paid more attention to the name!!! I'm too old for this...). Certainly not objectionable, or even unpleasant. Just common. Not memorable or unique at all.

Nice fragrance just for everyday use, nothing special, but it does smell good, similar to Versace Bright Crystal.

I bought this unsniffed cause I found it at marshalls for 16 bucks. I'd read the notes online and thought cherry blossom and pear sounded lovely. I do like it and it is appropriate for the office and daytime. Not a going out or date night scent by any means. On my skin I don't really get any notes in particular, just a clean light scent. It's not my favorite scent ever and I wouldn't repurchase but I will use up my bottle which does say something about it. I am very picky about fragrances so I'm pretty surprised it didn't end up in the trash with my fragrance track record ;)

This fragrance is ok. To me it smells a lot like Babydoll which I don't like. Its just not as sweet and smells a bit more musky. nothing original here.

This is a very playful scent, but I don't think that it smells too sweet, as some reviewers have said. When I wear it I feel pretty, lighthearted, and not overly perfumed. It goes well with summer dresses! I prefer the drydown to the initial scent, however, as it mellows out a bit and softens with my chemistry.
It feels good for the warmer weather, I'm not sure I could see myself wearing this in the dead of winter!

This scent is more "young & lovely" and only a bit sexy/flirty. I'm really used to darker/unisex scents and was in search of something for girlier light-hearted days. Reading upon the notes for Young Sexy Lovely, it sounds extremely busy and almost all over place with notes but strangely enough it works well with my chemistry.

I actually would be more happier if the musky/spicey base notes were more apparent on me but I can still smell it there. Overall the scent is a fruity floral that has a pleasant balance where it's not overly sweet but not too floral with a very subtle hint of spice. The staying power is decent for me especially since it's an EDT. The bottle is very cute also. I would buy it again. It's a scent that's nice to have on those more playful days.

Light floral, fruity and slightly woodsy scent. Reminds me of walking through my grandparents vineyard in the summer. Very light scent. Adorable packaging, very cute and feminine. Decent staying power on me, typically lasts me a full ten hour day at work. I would definitely recommend it if you like D&G Light Blue, or Dior's Pure Poison. continued >>

I absolutely love the way this product smells, no question. I even like the bottle which is cute and ultra feminine. Why the 3 lippies then? Because it has ZERO staying power. I know its an eau du toillete and not a parfum but come on, I spritz on 3 full sprays and within 20 mins its all but gone. Unless I spray it directly onto my clothes it really doesn't last.
Really disappointed, esp since my other YSL scent Opium is so strong I can't put on more than 1 spray.
