very flowery scent that I think wears nice on its own but this is a carbon copy of so many other scents out there that last longer and have more complex notes. Also, the rollerball applicator isnt my favorite. I wouldnt buy again.

Not my favourite perfume (or i suppose i have to call it "oil") mostly because of the fact i'm not a fan of floral scents. i actually got this as a gift and the package is just beautiful. it came in a little white box with a bow on top, and inside was the perfume and it came with a little pouch to put it in. when i first smelt it i thought it was really heavy but it wasn't overwhelming either. but since i don't like flowery scents i didn't bother using it. what i like about this is that, this smells exactly like the new Juicy Couture perfume. and its waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay cheaper. but just smaller. so if you like the smell of Juicy Couture but hate the price tag, then i recommend you get this.

I really loved this in the shop, but after wearing it to work I can't tell the difference between Pistol and the Mr Sheen spray polish. It smells nice at first, but very quickly fades to a toliet-cleaner type fragrance. I like creosote-type smells but this is much too chemical for me - I'm not keen on cleaning or the smell of the products that accompany it. Maybe if you or your partner are particularly houseproud, this would be a hit.

Pistol is just ok. I don't dislike tuberose/gardenia scents, but this one's so generic you can just skip it. 2.5 stars.

Tuberose, gardenia, pikake? Three of my favorite floral scents in one perfume oil at a reasonable price? I had high hopes for this and tried it. I could smell the tuberose (generic perfume tuberose) and the pikake(not very warm and sort of soapy), but it was not really anything special, and it quickly turned into something chemically-scented and harsh, not really as inviting as those floral notes should be. It could be nice on someone else who likes florals, but after an hour, it was almost chalky smelling and resembled something synthetic.

I also got this as a sample and it is definatly flowery. I hung it from my rear view mirror and my car smells like a bouquet of flowers. A little too flowery for me but not a complete tragedy.

Pistol is amazing! If you are a fan of creamy fresh white florals like Fracas, Child or Kai, definitely try this. Despite having notes of tuberose, gardenia and lily, it is surprisingly non-cloying to my nose. It is simultaneously stiletto-heel sexy (yet not trampy)and freshly-washed innocent (yet not childish). Today I tried Kai on one hand and Pistol on the other, and I actually liked Pistol's drydown better... a gentle and tenacious musk. It lasts long and the packaging is too cute for words. I will happily buy this again, should the need ever arise.

Pistol was my favorite of the three Urban Decay scents. It's floral (Gardenia, I think) going on, but after it dries, it smells different in a synthetic, dryer-sheet way so despite the cute little rollerball, I would not repurchase.

this stuff smells so great! i'm not too big on flowery smells in all honesty. so when i first smelled this, i didn't really like it. then once it dried down a bit, i loved it. i started layering it with some of the more coconut scented body splashes i own, and i loved it even more (i'm a huge coconut fan). it was a bit pricey for such a small size, but conisdering it's an oil and a little goes a long way (and has long staying power), it's well worth it. the packaging is too adorable too. i'm a fan of guns and other things that are quite dangerous (:P) so i loved the tiny purple drawstring bag with a gun on it that came with it. i'm really looking forward to trying sin and go as well.

"Whew! Is that sweet or what?!" was my first impression. I tried it anyway (handy-dandy roll-on applicator!). I could smell it for HOURS! It lasted through the gym, past the sauna, and beyond my quick shower, which surprised me. Also, once I smelled it on myself with my own personal chemistry, I began to like it. It's perfect for Spring, definitely not an Autumn scent. My boyfriend *really* likes it. It's intoxicatingly feminine, but once it dries down, the sweetness subsides and you're left with a lushious Spring bouquet surrounding your senses. Pretty!! I still can't believe it lasted as long as it did. I just might have to buy this.
EDIT: After purchasing, I LOVE smelling like this!! It's gorgeous White Musk with Honeysuckle/Gardenia. Perfect. I really love it and I'm glad I bought it.

All I smell is over the top synthetic gardenia. Ugh.

Tuberose is very dominant in this seductive floral blend. reminds me of Monyette Paris and perhaps would be a reasonable substitute, having a much better price tag.
