Je ne adore pas! Another potential fragrance from Dior that did not work with my skin chemistry. To me, this smells similar to Dior's Escale a Portofino Eau de Toilette. It's very citrusy and florally.
The bottle is so sophisticated and attractive, I believe it represents what the scent should be to most women. But alas, I am part of the minority where the scent does not work. As some reviewers have pointed out- this scent is strong, one spritz will suffice, anymore and it will be too overwhelming.
I can definitely see why some people like it. There is no doubt that it is mature and feminine. It just does not work on me. Here's a scent description for this who are interested: "top notes of Champaca flower, mandarine and ivy leaves; middle notes of orchids, violet and rose; base notes of Damascus plum, Amaranth wood and blackberry musk."
Good luck!
I don't like to purchase perfumes more than one time. Because i get old of fragrances fast. A little goes a LONG way, it has amazing stay power. Just a little to old smelling for my likings. But it is a nice smell.
I wore this for a good year, as I completely adored J'adore. at $80 a pop, i can definitely find better things to buy with my money nowadays. The pro is that it is an amazing scent, sexy yet sweet.
The con is that it goes on so strong. Alas, if you're spraying this more than twice per application, my pity goes out to all around you. One spritz is good enough even.
Your nose adapts, but everybody else will smell it from a mile away.
I'm not going to buy this again (as I still have one fourth left!), but I'm hoping there is a lotion for this, as I will definitely purchase that.
This is a beautiful floral. It's sexy, but not overtly, and it's very delicate and feminine. I've worn this for the past five months. Usually I switch fragrances day to day, but I love this so much it's become my signature scent. I'll continue wearing this. It makes me feel put together and sophisticated. It's aptly named.
So this screams fruity, flirty, cheap, and for the barely legal in age... at least to my nose. But something about it, I just had to have it. I wouldn't be caught in public with it, so it's like a vice I like to sniff here & there when I'm at home ..ALONE. (I got the 15ml size)
This perfume is def one to put you in a great mood, very peppy & happy.
Not for me, but very nice and strong. continued >>
smells amazing. i agree with the other reviewer who deemed this a more mature fragrance, but who wants to smell like cotton candy when theyre in their 20s? lol. i love this perfume!
I love this perfume! great smell... everyone loves it... i sell this perfume where I work and everyone I show it too pretty much always buys it!
This is absolutely my favorite perfume! I'm not a perfume person at all, and I was lucky enough to smell a sample of this one day and completely fell in love with it. There is definitely a floral basis to this perfume, but I'm not sure exactly how I would describe it. It does tend to have a more "mature" smell to it, but it's that floral scent that gets me! The scent lasts for most of the day, but if I need to go out again at night I have to re-apply. The bottle is absolutely lovely, I just love the slender handle and almost teardrop-like shape of the whole thing. It's a staple, I can never have enough!
