My favorite. Very pretty tropical floral smell..and sometimes I smell bananas or coconuts..idk. It's strong so I just do half a spritz in the bottom layer of my hair, near the nape of my neck. If I can smell it on myself I know I went way overboard. The bottle is ugly and hard to use but that won't stop me from buying more lol. I instantly feel happier and prettier when I wear this...& that's the point right?

Very coconutty intense tuberose. Powerhouse sillage and lasting power. But it makes me think of powerdressing. So it's a definite no.

If you like tuberose, this is for you. Apparently I like it but not enough to buy it. I also got a plastic type smell in this so would not purchase.

To me this is one bold perfume, the fragrance is nice but only if you go easy. I find for daytime I need to spray it on to a tissue and then immediately dab the tissue onto my skin its that strong its more an evening perfume. I wont buy again as its to overwhelming and somewhat masculine I prefer romantic perfumes. It has amazing staying power in fact I much prefer it after a few hours.

Definitly my HG perfume, its just ME! This definitly could be worn by anyone in any age group, i'm 19 years old and have worn it since high school, always complimented by the way i smell as it is strong stuff, now to be honest i have to agree with a previous reviewer as i bought a bottle of this recently and it didn't seem to last or have the same sillage as my other bottles, but i purchased a 50 ml and it was from the holiday gift set they do at christmas so maybe it was just down to that! the other week i bought it, this time in 100ml and it seemed to last, so maybe the higher the ml, higher the strength? either way this perfume is a winner, it has the most beautiful unique smell, very gardenia like and ALOT of tuberose, probably as much as fracas, however this is just a little lighter then fracas. the perfume just radiates luxury. WINNER!

The moment I picked up Michael Kors and smelt it's gorgeous scent, I fell instantly in love! An amazingly deep, sexy fragrance. It automatically smells warm and inviting! The blend of notes is so unique. I picture strong, classy women wearing this. It's got a sort of sweetness to it, but this is not to be confused with something young girls would wear. The woods in the dry down go so well with the tuberose, violet and musk notes. A very feminine fragrance! This perfume should not be used frivolously but savored for those special occasions! I love this beautiful perfume, and so does my husband!!

I had worn Michael Kors in the past and had always received many compliments especially from men. It had great staying power and I loved the smell it left on my clothes. I'm not sure why but I drifted away for a year trying other perfumes that were good but not in the same class as Michael Kors. Last month I bought the large bottle with the anticipation of "old times". HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT! Same sensual, intoxicating scent...that lasted 30 minutes and then nothing. No lingering, rich, sensual fragrance. Nothing! At first I thought it was my nose but when I asked other people if they could smell anything on me the answer was no, not the slightest hint of a fragrance even when they pressed their nose to my wrist. In the past a light spritz here and there lasted for hours. I took it back to the store thinking I had a bad bottle and they gave me a new one. No difference. Lasted 30 minutes and then nothing. I really hope that the formula hasn't changed and I've had the misfortune of 2 bottles that were either old or a bad lot. I'm tempted to buy another bottle from a different department store to see if there is a difference but I don't want to spend another $100 on weak "toilet water" that disappears before the dry down can happen. If the formula has changed I will not purchase again.

Wow, this is SO PRETTY, and that is coming from someone who usually doesn't like florals at all.. I usually like warmer more sugary scents, but this is absolutely gorgeous. My main problem with florals usually is that they don't smell unique it just smells like "perfume". This is not like that at all! Right away when I apply this I smell lush gardenia/tuberose, and then later a spicier element I can't quite place. Very fresh and sophisticated fragrance, much more ladylike than I usually go for but still so striking and pretty. I would love to get my hands on a bottle for spring (I have a sample), in these cold months I'll stick to my gourmands but I might have to get this, hmm...

This Michael Kors perfume smells sooo good. It is very nice, smells like an expensive perfume. To me the staying power is pretty good and remains strong most of the time so you don't need to use that much to smell it. I would say this is a perfume that is mostly for night wear. maybe a date night.

This used to be my signature scent! Absolutely loved it, got many compliments while wearing it. But now that I have a baby I just don't use it anymore as it is so strong! Even just one spritz is very overpowering...

I have worn this perfume, and this perfume alone, for a few years now. I adore it adore it adore it. It smells amazing, and I am not one to spend money on perfume. But for this one, I will. It's my HG of scents...I just can't explain why I love it so much. It makes me sooo happy. I hope they never discontinue it.

I'm not a fragrance junkie nor am I one to read or write reviews on fragrances. They're one of those things you just have to in and try for yourself to decide if you like.

But I got this as part of a deluxe fragrance sampler gift from Sephora and I became entranced. It's a rather nostalgic scent that I can't quite wrap my mind around. I don't know all about top notes and tuberose and vanilla and what not. But I will say that it smells like laundry dryer sheets, fruits, unfermented beer yeast, and Welch's grape soda squished together. May not sound enticing, but the smell drives me crazy (in a good way). I guess it's nostalgic for me because it makes me think of the times I would take walks around my old neighborhood in the evenings and could smell the neighbors doing their laundry when the scent of Bounce sheets shot out of their air vents on the houses. So I guess it smells like home, but not the country apples & lemons kind of home scent. More like home sweet home meets upscale urban musk.

This isn't BAD, but considering popularity/reviews, I expected way better. My sister says she likes it on me, but to me it just smells like fabric softener or something. (What I tried was EDP.)

If you want compliments galore from men and women alike, this is the one. Men literally drop at my feet when they smell this, it has a weird sort of power over them. I have been wearing it off and on for years, and when going out and you want to be noticed, this is the perfect fragrance for that. Everyone else has described what it smells like perfectly, so I won't go into that. I don't use it for everyday now that I am a mom, but back in my days of clubgoing in Las Vegas and LA, this was the winner every time.

As a hardcore gourmand fragrance devotee, it takes me a lot to branch out to an aquatic, white floral like Michael Kors namesake scent. That aside, this is one of the most elegant, graceful scents I have ever tried. The inital spray yields clean tuberose and maybe a hint of citrus. Once settled, the scent evolves into the most mellow and silky jasmine fragrance. It reminds me of sweet jasmine green tea, absolutely delicious. This fragrance has wonderful lasting power as well. I had to knock off a lippie because in between the initial spritz and the drydown, this perfume has some floral notes that just don't work well with my body chemistry, they become slightly acrid. If you wear Dior Addict, Prada Candy, BS Fantasy, etc., you may find this too sharp. Regardless, MK is a beautiful EDT that I will reach for when I want a fresh, sophisticated scent.

The damn dispenser leaks! Fantastic fragrance. I guess I should have known better than to purchase it on Ebay. Oh well.

Tuberose with an undercurrent of sandalwood -- Mmmmm! My boyfriend loves it.

purchased the captivators perfume sampler from sephora. this was one of the 4 perfumes in the box. this was a huge no for me, viva juice and dior addict are more my style. this was so strong and tuberose y that i got nauseous. lasting power was fabulous though (not for me, had to scrub and scrub...).

I repurchase this probably once a year despite the high price tag and the disappointing packaging (the nozzle doesn't spray, it simply lets out a squirt) because this fragrance is PHENOMENAL. I'm a tuberose addict and this tops my list. It's also very strong, so a little lasts a while. Really love this for any occasion.
