The scent is very elegant and sexy...very accurate for women. The bottle is nice and elegant as well, but the top comes off easily. Very Audrey Hepburn, very 5th Ave. :)

This is one of my favourite fragrances...It is not a heavy fragrance, but warm and flowery.

I got this as a gift and to me, it's not great but not so bad either. The smell is strong so I think its good for the fall and winter. But I find it's too strong to wear during the summer. My mom says it gives her a headache, but to me it's acceptable.

This is probably the most common fragrance that I like. It's warm and soft, and lasts a long time on my skin. Not in my top 10, or 20 for that matter, but it's still a very nice, classy fragrance.

Edit 5/2012- this is still probably the most common fragrance that I love, but after all this time, I always come back to it. It is the easiest to wear fragrance in my wardrobe, is not bound to a season or style, works with jeans or dresses, very chameleon-like. I bought this when I was around 19-20 years old because I wanted a simple in-between scent for the days when Obsession was a little too much, but fruity body sprays weren't enough. I never realized how I'd come to love and respect 5th Avenue in its own right, but I have. Maybe it would even be top 5 these days.

This is my favorite perfume, and I have been wearing it since I was 16 (I am 23 now). I've gotten a tremendous amount of compliments on it, and it is one of the few fragrances I can wear that doesn't give me a headache. Very soft, woodsy undertones, and not too sweet. Love it!

Great scent. I love the bottle. Smells like a rich and classy lady and makes me feel New York-ish and stylish!

I really like 5th avenue. I get a lot of compliments on it. It smells fresh on me. I thought I would not like it because it's classfied as a floriental perfume but it's really a nice, classy perfume.

Smells iffy but is a definite improvement over the likes of Red Door and Sunflowers. It smells like a "typical" perfume to me - doesn't remind me of anything except the general waft of fragrance that overpowers my nose when I go into the fragrance dept. I don't hate it, but there's not much love either.

A general improvement as far as fragrances go for Arden, but this fragrance simply does not wear well at all. It dissipates within two hours!

Not terrible, but not great either. Pretty ho-hum, and irritating in large quantities.
