Hmm it's an alright fragrance. Smells kinda odd at first softens after (rosey-floral scent). I would not buy this again. I'm more of a Michael Kors and Marc Jacobs kinda girl.

My husband bought it for me on my b'day. (Probably coz he saw me drooling over it at the store) I love love love this perfume. It has a rosy, but not at all mature kinda smell. Not over powering. Reminds me a bit of "Forever and ever" by Dior. Which was a limited edition perfume i think.

I suspected a rose-scented fragrance coming from Kate Moss and it did. It is sort of a softer version of Sarah Jessica Parkers Lovely. It is nice, but not very original. I'm not going to buy this one as I know all young fashionista-wannabes are going to wear this scent..

Update:
I did buy this one as it smelled a lot better when I actually tried it on my wrist and not smelled this fragranced card

I liked this one and could imagine myself wearing it. Lots of roses, somewhat dark roses. A decent fragrance that isn't too expensive.

I really like this. It's got a sort of "timeless rose garden at dusk"-rose smell to it that feels very classic. The base is woody and that gives it depth and then there's one note that I can't distinguish but suspect might me pink pepper (?) that gives the scent an edge. So while it's light and floral it still has a little extra compared to many other floral scents. If I would compare this to another fragrance I'd say it's quite similar to SJPs Lovely, so if you liked that you might enjoy this too.
I have gotten a lot of compliments when wearing this scent so I guess it's quite nice for others too!

I honsetly diddn't think I would enjoy this fragrance. I usually prefer very sweet gormand scents, but this is an exeption. I don't really see the English lady's rose garden note, but I can understand why people may say that. However on my skin its slightly sweet and tart with some soft floral note (I'm bad at describing these things). I don't find it over powering at all. You just have to try it and see!

It is a nice fragrance, I get compliments when I wear it but I wouldn't consider it a must have. I like it because it smells very british, classic and clean being strong and long lasting at the same time. I don't find it very seductive or misterious, but it is a very elegant scent. Men seem to like it.

I almost passed out when I took a wiff of this... it just is way too strong for me and smelt of an english lady's rose garden x 20! I hate really strong scents like Chanel (Which also makes me pass out), and the fact that Coty made this is even scarier... When I think of Coty I think of those cheap and really nasty calgon body sprays like hawaiian ginger... ick!!!!! When it dries down it reminds me of the geeky boys in high school who used to drown themselves in Brute.. not fond memories!! LOL
p.s. I am a huge kate moss fan, but not a fan of this perfume!

I like that it's a rose scent but not a flat one, it's a got a nice musky drydown. I'm not good at describing scents but I gravitate to this one because it's not an overpowering floral and it's got this softness to it which I love, especially on the drydown. The lastnight power is not bad either. I had this on my left wrist and Victor & Rolf's Flowerbomb on my right.. at the end of the day it was the left one I wanted to sniff more. I will very likely purchase this for my fall/winter scent.

Waifish floral - An apropos scent to represent the girl who was *the* original waif of the 90s. I had hoped for something more representative of her more recent controversial image, more reckless and indulgent. But no. It smells good overall, but fades to base quickly and stays far too close to the skin. Like others, I had to snort this directly from my wrist not long after application. I doubt very much that I will be blowing my money on this! No sale.

This is a very pretty and fresh floral fragrance with a lot of rose that stands out for me. I can understand it being likened to Stella...although I think I actually like it more than Stella as it dries down beautifully and smells quite musky and warm, whereas Stella lasts so fleetingly on me I don't even notice a dry down :-( I can't say that I think this fragrance would represent Kate Moss from what I know of her...so if you think that this will be something edgy and different...it's not! But if you enjoy light floral fragrances with a definite lean towards roses, then you may well like this. Although I think this is lovely and can see myself wearing it a lot, it may not be something I'd re-purchase, as I would probably move on to try something else.

Taken from The Scented Scalamander:
As previously reported, Kate Moss will launch her signature perfume this fall called Kate. The fragrance was created by Nathalie Lorson of Firmenich and the jus is described as a floral musk, with both dark and pink tonalities and olfactory facets to reflect Kate Moss' duality. Dark blooms are very en vogue in perfumes lately by the way.....
The super model revealed that her favorite perfumes are Guerlain L'Heure Bleue and Penhaligon's Bluebell. Great choices!
"For Kate, Lorson blended top notes of orange blossom absolute, forget-me-not and pink pepper. At the scent's heart are lily of the valley, heliotrope, magnolia and peony, as well as rose petal notes, which Lorson said are at once fresh and rich. "They express the personality of Kate Moss in this duality," she said.
Base notes include patchouli, sandalwood, musk, vetiver and ambret seeds. "I learned a lot about having to smell layers and picking out the scents," said Moss of the juice-creation process. "I don't think people generally smell a perfume and say, 'Oh, that bottom note!'"
Designed by Lutz Herrmann, Kate's packaging is also meant to portray elements of Moss' personality. "She's not only beautiful and glamorous, but she also has a darker side and a rebellious aspect sometimes," said Herrmann.
The glass flacon has a square base, which gradually becomes a rounder form moving toward the bottle's neck, where a rubber band is emblazoned with the scent's name. The flacon is topped with a charcoal-colored faceted cap created to have a vintage feel."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I admit I was drawn by the name. I usually prefer vanilla / foody scents (Miss Dior Cherie and Hanae Mori Butterfly being my favorites) over floral ones and I heard "Kate" was falling into the same category as Stella, which I didn't like on me at all. But I was too curious to pass on this one and so I ordered a bottle on eBay. I love and admire Kate Moss for her style and thought why pass on the opportunity of smelling like "the" style icon of this century (imho). :P
Well what to say .. I am a bit disappointed because I expected something more original and extravagant coming from Kate Moss. Something more outstanding, more delicate and elegant and at the same time wild and unpredictable.. just like Kate Moss.
"Kate" IS a pretty scent, but very ordinary. It smells a lot like Stella in the beginning, but without the sharp note which Stella develops on my skin. It's the drydown after a few hours that I really like about Kate tho. It's sweet .. flowery .. musky.. warm .. very soothing. A sexy soft scent that stays close to your skin. While I get a lot of compliments on MDC or HMB, I got none when I wore Kate to work today. Staying power is average and there isn't much sillage at all.
Kate is a nice scent for fall/winter and I will try to use up this bottle. Don't think I'd repurchase tho.
