I didnt like this scent when it first came out years ago but i decided to give it another change and i bought another full-size bottle this past week. This go around i love it. It reminds me a little of Clinique's Happy for Men. It's a little masculine smelling but not to much. The scent has a wonderful green tea top note and dries down to a beautiful, sweet honeysuckle/jasmine scent. The bottle is whimsical and fairytale like. I remember when i was a kid my friends and I would pick honeysuckle blossoms and pull the stamen out of the center and taste the sweetness of the honeysuckle. This fragrance reminds me of those times as a kid.

This perfume is just a big fat NO!

No citrus, no flowers, no amber.

Nothing but hay-grass for hours turning to a low quality salty musk.

I'm not impressed, no matter the price.

This a fun fragrance to wear occasionally when your bored with your fave. Very fresh, floral. Not overly strong..I still can't put my finger on the notes that I smell..maybe carnation? I do get bored with it quickly though. The bottle is really cute..looks pretty on my dresser. Good addition to my collection :)

I bought it because of the packaging and the pretty bottle but this is the nastiest smelling perfume ever.It smells cheap and grapefruity.I guess that is the honeysuckle you all speak of? I dunno but I don't care no Cynthia Rowley for me please! Yuck, I am afraid to try her Avon fragrances now.

I discovered a small bottle of this at TJ Maxx. The box was battered but the price was dirt cheap, so I took a chance. As many reviewers have written, the predominant note is honeysuckle. It's a feminine, sweet floral that's most appropriate for summer. Because I was traveling out-of-state and had not packed a fragrance, this became my scent for the remainder of the trip. I needed to reapply at least once during the day, but didn't mind because of the bargain I had found. Unlike the bottle of Cabochard I purchased the same day, this one came home with me.

This one is a fresh light floral which reminded me of one of those spinoff versions of White Linen, I think it may have been Fresh Breeze. It was the one in the light green bottle anyhow. Speaking of bottles, the Cynthia Rowley fragrance had a rather pretty bottle and box so I thought that the juice had to be pretty too. And it is. Pretty but also forgettable. No sale.

I got this as a sample from Sephora. It's adorable! It reminds me Fresh Pink Jasmine, only it's fresher and cleaner. And that's why I like it more. As for the price - it's a no-brainer! Very affordable, I must say. I'm ordering a full-size bottle today!

I paid $14.99 for this at tj maxx. Only one bottle left and I got it asap.
The gold over the cap is peeling, but I don't care. The bottle has a vintage carefree design, and plus it smells REALLY GOOD! This is not heavy or over done, but it lasts all day. It mixes with my skin and makes a new scent. Smells like a soft, pretty, blossom floral. Very hard to determine the notes used, so I looked it up.
Cynthia Rowley combines Verbena, Bergamot, White Cyclamen, and Red Currant with a vibrant floral heart of Pink Honeysuckle and Freesia and warm undertones of Heliotrope, White Musk and Amber. The result is an exuberant mix of sweet and sexy--a scent that makes you feel pretty. Those bad reviews must have smelled an old heat damaged tester. This stuff is very pretty!

I bought this b/c it was on sale, and b/c I had run past Cynthia's name a dozen+ times in the Glamours, Allures, and Marie Claires of several months past. I am not really into sweet, floral scents (I like musky, understated florals more), but this grew on me. Initially, it was an okay scent, but the more you wear it, the better it smelled! This can be worn both day and night. The beautiful bottle is a plus, and definitely a collector's item =). I doubt I'll repurchase though, unless it's on sale. Keeping those fingers crossed...

I can't believe all the negative the reviews of this product. It is such a lovely, fresh scent. I don't smell like I'm wearing perfume. I just smell nice. Don't listen to the naysayers- go out and try this one!

I love this perfume!! It's one of my favorites and favorite perfumes for me don't come around that often. It smells really summery and citrusy. I think I smell green tea in it vaguely. This sticks really great and for a long time. The more I swear the more better it smells :) I would deff. recommend this perfume! Espessially for summer.

I got a sample vial of this first, and absolutely LOOOVED it! So, I now have a full sized bottle... it's a little different than the sample vial. It's stronger, and basically not what I had intended, at first. I was SO disappointed at first, but then after about an hour, it began to smell like it had in the sample. This literally lasts forever on me, so I do believe it is a body chemistry issue, for those who claim it fades quickly. I have to wash it off to make the scent go away, LOL! This a a very feminine scent, with some lovely powdery notes. I feel this fragrance will easily suit all ages. I'm 24, and love it... my neice is 16, and she loves it too. I can easily see this smelling great on older women as well! I also believe this is a good scent for all seasons. I do see myself getting tired of this scent eventually though, (typical for me though,) but I'll love it dearly until then. My description of this is a sort of cross between Beautiful and Maybe Baby.

My advice: If you are thinking of buying this scent... try it, and walk away for the day. If you like it by the end of the day, go back and buy it tomorrow. It's not for everyone, because it is very florally.

I have to say something on this lovely perfume.
I got a whole gift set on sale in BBW, price about $20 and the fragrance is 100ml!!~
It is a fresh lily scent in summer, it is not too strong at the first spray, and I can smell the same strength smell after 4-5 hours!!~
Such a great perfume, if I can finish this 100ml bottle definitely I will look for a new good deal~

I really like this scent, it's very floral and reminds me of gardenias or honeysuckle. I did notice that it disappeared quite quickly (or maybe I just didn't put enough on? hmm). I'll have to see if I can get the staying power to improve or not before I consider purchasing it, as I'm currently using a sample I received.
08/14/07 - I've had the fullsize of this fragrance for over a year now and I STILL love it. Upped my rating from a 4 to a 5. It's such a pretty feminine scent and the boys seem to like it too :) Would definitely repurchase!

Such a lovely bottle. Such a mediocre scent inside. Maybe I'm imagining it, but I smell quite a lot of Lily of the Valley in this ...and I didn't like it. Not worth the $ unless you just have to have the bottle and/or you adore lov and honeysuckle AND very weak fragrances.

I loved the spring green top notes, but the quick dry down became a faint powder. I'm disappointed that it fades too fast, especially for the price.
The bottle is darling.

This is a delicious honeysuckle scent. Not too overpowering. Just a lightly scented floral. It has a fresh, soapy essence. Absolutely feminine! And the bottle is pretty too!

This is nice, it smells like honeysuckle, but slightly too realistic if thats possible. And when I say realistic.. I mean they didn't add anything to it to make it fragrancy, or sweet. It feels like you stuck your nose DIRECTLY into the honeysuckle, instead of whiffing the sweet scent on the breeze. I absolutely love honeysuckle, but this may be a bit strong and not quite sweet enough.

I guess I have very different tastes from most of the reviewers here as I LOVE this! It has a lot of my favorite notes: bergamot, verbena, and red currant. It does have a lot of honeysuckle but the other notes tame it a little. I got a great deal on this at VS, the gift set with the 3.4oz EDP, bath petals, and body lotion for 38.99! I am saving this for spring and summer though because it feels to me like a warm weather scent.
