This is my first Jo Malone. We were looking in King of Prussia mall at Neimans. Love that mall and that store. The sas were wonderful. I got a few things and there was a table of Malone fragrances. She said try this one and I was smitten. I bought the small one and love it. Put it on tonight and dh likes it too. Very nice and easy to wear and a bit different from all my flowery ones. Love the smell, great. I hope it is not LE< ♥♥

Fragrances -Estee Lauder - Bronze Goddess Eau Fraîche Skinscent

perfumegirl 7/6/2008 11:49:00 PM

Finding this is almost impossible. I finally found two at a Lord and Taylor. They sure did not make very many, I called around the country and most stores and the internet of EL was sold out. I guess that is LE. Why do companies do this. ??Great scent, nice for summer, but if you can find a bottle good luck.Estee Lauder has come up with some neat fragrances lately, including Private CollectionTuberoseGardenia and Sensuous, Interesting, if you can find it.♥

Fragrances -Unlisted Brand - M by Mariah Carey Gold Deluxe Edition
rated 4 of 5
perfumegirl 3/28/2008 2:53:00 PM

As you'd probably expect, M is sweet. The "sea breeze accord" and a little burst of citrus and tart fruit lighten up the toasted sugar in the top notes, but only a little; it is mostly marshmallow. It isn't a heavy scent though, and the gardenia in the heart notes is whisper-soft and blended with other sheer floral notes — it only reminded me of gardenia for a very short time. The dry down is pale musky woods, still fairly sweet, and a smidgen of creamy vanilla. If you go looking for the incense, you'll find it, but it isn't assertive. notes and comments from a blog I loved the purple M and was looking forward to the Gold,the bottle is Gold cannot be real gold. I got it from Elizabeth Arden.com free shipping, very nice, interesting fragrance, dh likes it and bottle is gorgeous, very sweet I can't find the gardenia but interesting fragrance and I had put on the new Gucci already when Fed Ex dropped of the box, bottle is so grogeous, interesting fragrance ♥

Fragrances -Guerlain - Cruel Gardenia
rated 5 of 5
perfumegirl 2/13/2008 9:09:00 PM

Cruel Gardenija is one of the fragrances of Guerlain's L'Art et La Matière collection, and as the people of the Guerlain house say, it is 'on the verge of cruelty' and 'stuns with its diabolical power'. It was launched and presented in 2008 together with fragrance for men, L'Âme d'Un Héros. It was created by two noses, Randa Hammami and Sylvaine Delacourte. It is designed in a way that its notes 'sunny, silky, smooth and lingering...can become an obsession'. Unlike the usual tradition, the creators of this fragrance did not strive towards the richness of notes that gardenia creates when combined with the precious light musk which would give velvety soft aura... In the contrary, Cruel Gardenia is like an arrow that aims directly at the heart and stays there forever. The magic starts with the notes of mouthwatering peach, Damask rose and neroli. The heart of Cruel Gardenia bursts of floral notes, revealing the fusion of violet and wafts of ylang-ylang, touched by light musk. The base notes follow with the accords of Tonka beans, light musk, vanilla and sandal wood. The fragrance comes in luxurious elegant 75ml (2.5 oz.fl) bottle. It is available at four La Maison Guerlain in the world – Bergdorf Goodman in New York-u, Neiman Marcus in San Francisco, The Breakers - Palm Beach, and French Pavilion at Epcot. Copied from some place, this is really expensive, had a sample, I ADORE THIS FRAGRANCE, IT IS THE BEST, for some reason the stores only got 25 bottles and then an emergency shipment. Bergdorf seems to be the only store that has it. I LOVE IT and got compliments, Taking very good care of the bottle. It comes with an atomizer and spray, Love it so much--♥♥♫♫

perfumegirl 1/19/2008 10:19:00 PM

I LOVE Nuits de noho and got the Bodies By Bond Body Cream, on the bottom of the jar is says BODYSILK It is 6.8 oz and $105.00= Bond store gives MUA 15% off free shipping,not affiliated, love a good deal. The Bond site says "An irreverent nighttime gourmand blend of j asmine, creamy vanilla and sheer patchoujli. Has the impact of a shot of icy vodka" I Have loved Nuits since it came out and bought several bottles and stars of it. Just adore it and it lingers. The cream/silk is so wonderful, and lasting. I woke up and still smelled amazing. Great product, it is expensive but a big jar and should last for a long time, Not affiliated love Nuits a lot ♥♥

Fragrances -Yves Saint Laurent - Elle
rated 5 of 5
perfumegirl 1/2/2008 9:23:00 PM

The Elle woman is young and vibrant and as comfortable in the gritty city streets as she is in a nightclub after a long day's work. Elle fragrance celebrates the duality of youthful spirit in all aspects of the scent, from packaging to ingredients. Layers of flowers, exotic fruits, like lychee meld together with contrasting scents of pink berries and patchouli into a wonderfully saucy concoction that mellows with wear and can last all day. notes borrowed from some site, fell in love with this before I smelled it, I read all over about it. Saw it in the CA Duty Free store and immediately bought it, Gorgeous fushia pink packaging and fushia pink bottle, fragrance again is wonderful and different just like I found Opium. Love it and love just looking at the bottle, YSL did it right DESIGN HOUSE - Yves Saint Laurent YEAR INTRODUCED - 2007 FRAGRANCE NOTES - Peony, Vetiver, Patchouli, Woody Note, Jasmin, Pink berries, Lychee, Citron in stock today more notes from Frag Net must be the patchouli that I adore amazing fragrance ♥♥
