This perfume gives me a headache whenever I wear it and the smell always reminds me of the doctors office.

Plus the little plastic silver part at the top of the bottle cracked and fell apart so I had to hot glue it back together.

I refuse to waste any though, I am determined to finish this bottle if it kills me. It probably will.

*edit* I tried to wear this yesterday and I got a splitting headache :-( Not worth it, I guess I will have to get rid of it.

I - and my husband - love this fragrance! I've been stopped so many times by complete strangers to ask what fragrance I'm wearing because they like it. It's a fairly light scent. I'm not very good at figuring out if a scent if "floral" or "musky" or "nutty" or anything like that, but it smells good! LOL. I'm a very casual, recently-turned-40, working mom who prefers a natural look. This scent fits in perfectly with my style.

I received this as a gift and I really loved the smell of this perfume. But wearing it was a different story. Every time I had it on, I would develop a splitting headache and get nauseous. Maybe I was allergic to something in it, but much to my dismay I couldn't wear it any longer and gave it to a friend. To me, it is much too overpowering. I really wish I didn't get sick every time I wore it!

I like this...it's pleasant, smells good, etc. BUT, it's too light, and too short-lived. It's also a bit generic. If you like it, go for the Very Irresistible Sensual instead: it's better, it's stronger, and being edp it lasts longer.

Love this perfume. Please do not take those people seriously who say this perfume is crap or stanky or negative things like that. In fact this is a very very very good fragrance. Only downside is the price, but then again who dosent like to splurge every now and then. I always read makeupalley reviews before i buy a product, and I thought they were right but now I know they're now! If you like elegant, sophisticated, slightly sweet, floral fragrances then this perfume is for you! xxx

I am honestly not a huge fan of this fragrance. I wanted to love it when I received it as a gift - but it literally gives me a headache. It's feminine but I find it too be too sharp. The rose notes are very strong, and the perfume has decent lasting power. I find the scent to sort of linger in my nose and not in a pleasant way, smells almost synthetic. The bottle shape is simple and a nice bold color, but the lid was finicky and I ending up losing mine. I would not repurchase.

This perfume carried the best memories in a certain period of my life ...
It is very sexy and feminine without being overpowering ..It gets attention but from men with finer taste in life ...If you're a fan of flowery but sublte smells which would not irritate your nose or another's this is the perfume for you ; very subtle yet catchy . Perfect for a date :)

I've worn this fragrance since high school. It's intense, but I always wear very sweet scents. It smells great on me, doesn't irritate my sensitive skin like others have.

I always feel like there is a beautiful rose firework display that unravels from my body when I put on this fragrance. It feels really warm for a floral fragrance and somewhat magical. Though it's a toilette, the smell is quite potent. Only problem is that it smells quite deliberately synthetic - but then again so are fireworks and they are still spectacular :D I differ from most reviewers in that I don't think the bottle looks too great - quite mediocre and too modern, whereas I prefer more timeless looking presentation that isn't so bold in colour. In any case, this is a lovely warm fragrance that really wakes you up but lacks somewhat in classic, understated sophistication - perfect for a crisp autumny day when you are shopping in a big city, not right for a classy evening event (would prefer something like Elie Saab or Coco Mademoiselle for evening).

I like this fragrance a lot. It's more of a mature scent. I'm not going to be able to describe this fragrance in detail which does it justice -- I can tell you that I really enjoy its depth. It's strong and intense. Right away it goisw on bright and flow-y; it seems to fade and taper gently but relatively quickly.

Cute twisty fuscia/purple bottle with an annoying triangular cap which is hard to replace. I received an ounce of this for free as a points gift from Ulta. Enjoying it a lot; glad I didn't have to invest in it because it's not nearly as lovely on me over time as it seemed like it might be sprayed as a quick test in the store. Absolutely worth wearing though and I do like the scent; I'm just unsure so far whether I'd re-purchase. Maybe I'll revisit this review when we've had more time to establish our relationship. ;)

No regrets at my choice of this fragrance for one of two of my points rewards however. Would have take Coach's 'Poppy' over this had it been available but this was my third choice.

I love the scent of this purfume, its expensive but i think its good value for money. I usually use two sprays on my neck and it lasts all day.

This is probably my favorite perfume to date; I've been wearing it since high school. Sexy and definitely a "night-time" perfume. I just bought the 2011 summer edition "Very Irresistible Tropical Paradise"...smells similar (although nothing can touch the original) and the bottle is pretty, which half the time is my reason for buying the perfume anyway. Love this stuff.

LOVE this scent. Part of my all-time favourites list so you know it is a sultry, sexy smell. The only kind I like!!! :-) My favourites are usually expensive and you can tell. That's the only complaint I have.
