I've had this multiple times and it is a very nice scent, but its not my personal favourite. It smells VERY Floral and it doesn't dry down any different. Whereas I prefer more vanilla, fruity and floral scents all mixed together.

This has awesome sillage and lasting power, I know this because I would always receive compliments when wearing it. Sometimes it would even be too strong for me even to handle and I would get migraines.

The bottle is also gorgeous, purple with a butterfly lid. All in all, a very nice feminine floral scent. It's also very affordable and there's usually some good discounts on it.

Lovely scent, flowery with an airy, fluffy marshmallow soft sweetness. And of course a sexy smokey incense in the drydown.
Very feminine and girly.
Pretty unique and original for a celeb perfume <3
poor sillage tho ;(

This is a lovely smelling perfume! For me, the lasting power is absolutely horrible. I spray it and it lasts about a minute, then it sits VERY close to the skin, like, if you held your wrist to your nose, you could only JUST smell it. Very bad :/

Very respectable and fresh take on a gourmand-floral scent, and I really don't find this generic-smelling AT all, although for some reason it does remind me of other amber-white-florals like Alien.
Notes include: sea breeze, marshmallow, tiare flower, gardenia, amber, patchouli, Morrocan incense. The sea isn't so much salt as it is a soft ozonic freshness, and that disappears quickly. I personally find the marshmallow and fleshy tiare quite prominent, and these 2 notes stay throughout the scent's life on my skin.
I think it's misleading for people to say this is a vanilla scent because it's not. There's a warmth and sweetness from the amber and marshmallow, but it's NOT vanilla.
I also dislike heavy incense and patchouli, but surprisingly these notes are very soft here. As it dries down, soft wisps of these notes turn M into a plump, powdery, minty marshmallow.
Girly, but smart!

I have the 100ml EDP. I've had it for 2 years now. I spray it 2-3 times a week in the morning once or twice and there's still more than half left. There's only a quarter gone. Defiantly worth getting the largest size if you love the scent. It lasts ages and is well worth it :)

I've tried to wear it several times, after a friend bought this for me a couple years ago. And, I must say, I'm not very picky about trying scents, and I don't have a hugely sensitive nose by any means. Still, and I think, this is quite telling, I find it overly warm and sweet, and the combination is kinda nauseating. I just can't get into this one at all, which is sad, because the bottle is, admittedly, cute!

This is the sexiest scent to me. It reminds me of summer and the beach and toasting marshmallows. Why I find that sexy I don't know lol but I def do. Its a nice warm toasty vanilla-y exotic beachy scent. It's dark yet sweet. I think it's quite unique actually. I get so many compliments when wearing it, it just suits me so nicely. Love the bottle too.

Last winter I did go through a faze in which I was fond of this and found it to be a sort of warm, rich scent. Now to be quite blunt it makes me feel nauseous. It's a little overbearing and seems easy to overdose on as I have noticed many people wearing it, I recognize it right away even if they are sitting across the room. The bottle itself is pretty but I found the lid a little bit tacky, and not very delicate. The lasting power is better in comparison to other sweet celebrity fragrances, but I still find it too heavy. Would not repurchase.

It's not the best. It's just really not my style. It's too strong and overwhelming for me. I only used it about twice and it's been sitting there. It gives my a headache and I think my mother would like it better than me.
