I must admit that I did not buy one, only tried it sometimes on. It is a warm and sweet fragrance suitable for fall or winter. It could be an alternative for my beloved Euphoria.

Just a gorgeous, sexy and feminine fragrance. Don't think I can afford to buy it again, but I would if I could! One downside is I think I am becoming anosmic to this and so reapply quite a lot.

Got a bottle of the EDP and noticed right away that the EDP and EDT are two very different fragrances. Wearing the EDP today I noticed right away that it smelled familiar. Took awhile to place it but finally I realized that For Her EDP smells alot like Cartier Delices. Since I already have a bottle of Delices I think I'll return it for the EDT since it's more on the muskier side. The patchouli in the EDP is nice but the fruitiness is a bit mish mashed next to it. Not crazy about it but I could live with it if someone else was wearing it around me. EDIT 1/13/09 So after a days wear I noticed that the EDP went from Delices to smelling distinctly like SJP's Lovely and philosophy's Inner Grace. I have a bottle of Delices and Inner Grace so no need for For Her EDP. The Delices like opening is a bit heavy and muddled IMO but the base notes are really nice. The opening ruins it for me a bit so I think I'll trade this in for the EDT as I hear it's better and also a differently formulated fragrance.
This is a very serious sexy perfume. Let me explain-- you can tell that the wearer is trying to be sexy. It sort of hits you over the head with that. It is sophisticated and sexy but in an obvious way. I like something a little more subtle. But maybe its just that it becomes harsh when mixed with by body chemistry.
got as a sample with Sephora order, love the smell but doesn't match my personality! It's a bit too heavy! but it's very feminine with floral notes.
On first whiff I get a musk like alyssa ashley musk oil. Five minutes later, nothing. I am anosmic to this. I think a lot of people are
I absolutely adore this fragrance. As one other insightful reviewer said, this can be worn anytime, anywhere. I am a fiend for Egyptian Musk, I love Egyptian Goddess, and have Egyptian musks from Body Time, Fragrant Body Oilz (the ebay seller everyone raves about) and assorted other sources. I was so happy to find a perfume that was based on Egyptian Musk.
But anyway, on to my review of this product. It’s subtle, it’s hecka (little kids might be reading this) sexy, it’s mature, it just seems like the perfect perfume. For me, lasting power is excellent. I spritz a few sprays in the morning, and can still faintly smell them in the afternoon.
The perfume is expensive, but I can find numerous (infinite, really) ways to rationalize the expense. I am not sure this is for everyone, actually, I am sure this is not for everyone. However, if you like Egyptian musk, it is definitely worth a trial size from Sephora!

I received this as a sample from Sephora and was so excited to try it on. However, now that I have it on I cannot wait for it to wear off!
This scent should really be re-named "For Him" because it reminds me more of a men's fragrance than anything else. Imagine a mix between furniture polish, the woods and musk. Gross. Just gross.
I love NR in edp form. It is a rosier and a less musky version of the edt.
Edt is also nice but this gives me a terrible headache.
Whilst the edt is dark and mysterious, edp is bright and innocent.
I am surprised by how the differences between the two are subtle yet enough to make that difference!
The beauty of this scent is that it is incredibly versatile. It can be worn all year round though i find this fragrance to be a somewhat cold for me for the winter and therefore prefer warmer fragrances for then.
The NR oil smelt like a completely different fragrance and reminded me of a sporty male fragrance that has been watered down. This version also induced headaches.
