Extravagance made its debut in 1998. I got it for Christmas, 1999 from my then boyfriend. It has notes of sandalwood, cedarwood, musk, ambrox, green mandarin, black iris, tagete, and pink...

I really loved this scent back in 1998! I was studying abroad in UK and once I went to visit a friend in Oxford. She was busy all the morning so I could wander in Oxford alone for a few hours...

This brings back wonderful memories for me! The first time I purchased was 11 years ago in duty free at the airport in Zimbabwe. We were returning from an amazing honeymoon visiting Victoria Falls...

I have a mini that came with a gift set when I bought the original Amarige, but to me, this is nothing like the original Amarige. This is more soapy and clean smelling, very green, but I have...

It took me a while to realize what an outstanding fragrance this is. I bought a huge bottle at a yard sale, and would squirt it on every day w/o thinking about it. I love the way it smells, sexy...

This is a very interesting green, effervescent floral fragrance, almost fizzy. The top note (to my nose) smells more like grapefruit (Squirt soda actually) instead of green mandarin, as listed. ...

I used to wear this Extravagance a lot during the fall/winter months during my mid-20s. It's very vivid and had very good staying power on me. Always received compliments while wearing this, and...

This perfume smells like heaven! Very distinctive scent that I can't compare to anything else. Unique and makes me feel sexy. Kind of hard to find unless I look for it online.

I'd forgotten what a great summer fragrance this is. A very wearable, sophistacted floral. No cloying sweetness here at all like the original Amarige. I use this daytime during the summer and love...

I've gone through about three bottles of this over the past few years. I really love it. I never really new it was considered a "green" fragrance until I read Goddess_Dreams' review. I too am...

Very well-balanced and well-blended scent. It's a little bit green, a little bit floral, a little bit floral, and I'm sure there are some very soft woods in the drydown. It's easier to wear than...

The best green fragrance in my opinion... Here is my description of it from PE: "I am not a fan of any greenish perfumes out there, in fact I don't like Envy and can't stand Manifesto, I adore...

I really love this fragrance. It reminds me of that shampoo from the 70's and 80's (Gee your Hair smells terrific") So clean, fresh, and nice to be around. It's a great weekend, put on your comfy...

This is a Green-Woodsy-Floral which, except the name, has nothing similar to the sweet Floriental Amarige (actually, it reminds me more of a faboulous Givenchy III, but not so good, of course)....

I might buy this again but I am so fickle. I smell a heckuva a lot of grapefruit in this, and I'm not sure if it is officially in there or not. This surprises me that I like it, since I am...

I had tried the original Amarige, and had found it to be too sweet for me. This, however, was a much cleaner, greener scent and I think it is feminine without being too "girly." A keeper. ...

I like this one for its freshness, for its originality and for its green tinge. However, it does not seem to match my chemistry - for some reason it bothers me when I wear it. I bought it two or...

I wanted so much to love this! I always try it on every time I pass by the beautiful bottle, and I always love it for the first few minutes, but then after the top notes wear off and the rest...

I usually lean toward the spicy oriental or foody scents. This is one of the few florals I like. I bought the EDT version, & it lasted for the work day. I love most of the Givenchy fragrances. I...

To my nose, this smells nothing like the original Amarige (a fruity-floral-woody concoction that is waaaaaay too strong for me to wear comfortably). Instead, Extravagance is a powerful yet...
