I love the design of NR for her, especially the pink bottle. The fragrance is nice, musky and floral, but too floral for me. I think that the EdT version of NR for her has more edge and is deeper than the EdP version, that's why I prefer the EdT. Both versions are indeed somewhat unique but will never manage to range amongst my top ten fragrances.

Scrub wrists off with soap and water.
Those who have said this scent is reminiscent of Grandma's perume are SPOT ON.
This is just dreadful to me. Sweet, heavy and musky. No thanks.
Went through a bottle of this in one month. Yes, I absolutely loved it. It's not a dramatically different scent to the EDT in the black bottle, but it just flirtier and more innocent because of the floral notes. The drydown is pretty much similar to the EDT. I love this as a comfort scent, and it's also incredibly sexy. I wear it for work, sleep and everything else in between. Staying power and sillage is pretty much the same as the EDT. Love in a bottle.
i prefer the EDT over the EDP... EDT smells more attractive, more personality... EDP has something missing... that made it a little over musky for me, actually reminds me of ginger... but after reading the reviews in here, i am going to give this another try coz it is the first initial spritz that i dont like... most love the drydown of it... hmmm
I actually just tried this fragrance at Nordy's today and have mixed feelings about it. It smells very sophisticated in an older woman type of way. I like the dry down a whole lot more than when first sprayed. The scent of it kept nawing at me and I couldn't figure out why it smelled so familiar and then it hit me! It smells like Kiehls Original Musk! Although I am 37 this fragrance is still too old for me. I'm just not sure I could stand to wear it everyday. I don't hate it but I don't like it either. I also think it smells a bit masculine.
UPDATE: I think I've been sold! I changed my mind I do like it after all. I got two very generous samples of the EDP and a small sample of the Musc Oil. I've been wearing it for a couple of days now. Well, when my husband got close he said mmmm...that smells good. So let's just say he REALLY liked it A LOT tee hee. The only thing that is keeping me from getting it is the very hefty price tag. Oh...wait a minute my b-day is coming up...I know what I'll be getting :)
A lot of perfumistas actually seem to prefer the EDT version of NR For Her, because the EDT dries down to a more angular musk--making for a more interesting fragrance journey. But my favorite part of this scent is actually the topnotes--that sultry blend of rose and honey, just barely graced by the darkness so beloved in the EDT concentration--and I find that this version holds onto that sweet lushness for longer. The bottle for this one is blush pink, which I find appropriate for the scent. For while it is certainly sexy and thick, it is also quite proper. Somewhere, I read a review that described NR for Her as "the girl everyone only thinks is innocent," and that just about sums it up perfectly. There's a heart of darkness in this pink chypre.

I purchased the new Narciso Rodriguez For Her Body Defining Lotion and got a sample of the EDT and fell in love with both. Just ordered the EDT full size. Very sensual fragrance-blends with my chemistry. DH loves it and not too overpowering either. Will def purchase again.
PS the lotion does firm very well and smells great also.
okay. so here's the real deal on this fragrance. this is one of those scents you smell and think is amazing. then, you run to the store and spray it on your arm and have high hopes, and you think it smells horrid.
then you get home a couple of hours later and wonder what smells so good. this is it.
NR EDP has an amazingly sexy drydown, so when you go to try it, spray it on, walk around, and come back to buy it.
I also have the oil, and it also smells lovely, but it doesn't have great lasting power. for $150 a pop, i would go for the EDP. the EDT smells raw and funky with my body chemistry, so be sure to try the version in the pink bottle.
yum.

My heart belongs to the EDT as I prefer the deeper spicy notes and the sexy black bottle but I also love this. I use it if I'm going out at night, as I find the pink blossom top notes too strong for daytime...the pink bottle is also super cute. This feels like a more feminine/floral version of the EDT.

The original Narciso Rodriguez For Her (EDT) is my wintertime favorite, and this beautiful new EDP is my springtime favorite. It is very similar to the original NRFH (EDT) with the same soft heart of musc, only this EDP is much more creamy and has more pink blossom notes. It reminds me of the warm early spring sun melting away the ice and snow allowing the tiny buds of newborn blossoms to peek up through. Pure springtime wrapped around a heart of warmth. Beautiful!
