I received Cinema Eau d'Ete as a gift. It's surprisingly likeable for a bright, citrusy scent, which isn't my usual style. The mix of citrus & floral notes really shimmers--although, I could see where...

Review product Innocent Secret

Innocent Secret is a new collaboration between Thierry Mugler and Victoria's Secret, available online and at VS Beauty stores. It reminds me a great deal of Mugler's Angel Innocent. Even the bottle is...

Another of my favorite Chanel perfumes. I have the EDT & lotion, both wonderfully soft and elegant. It's not a sharp white floral, like many tuberose/gardenia-dominant perfumes are, at least to my nos...

Lovely lemon fragrance, just a tad too masculine for me to wear. The perfect scent for a man, though--simultaneously light & sensual. Edited, 5/28/06: Annick Goutal's creations are growing on me! This...

Shalimar has the essential qualities of a legendary perfume: it is romantic, mysterious, elegant, and has an unmatched "backstory" (like all Guerlain's, although I think Shalimar's is best). It's also...

Review product Chance Eau de Parfum

Chance & I just can't get along. Like Angel, this has fruity, sweet overtones and then the dreaded patchouli kicks in........ "eau de decaying fruit" on me. Very sad:-( Oh, well, at least I'll always...

Review product Youth Dew

I guess I'm one of a few people who actually likes Youth Dew (maybe the only 20-yr. old who likes it, too). To me, its powdery and traditional-in a good way. If I had to guess, this is what Elizabeth ...

I recently "re-discovered" Chanel no. 5 after receiving EDP samples from Sephora, and I love it! Previously, I had only smelled it on a test strip, where it smelled completely different. But on my ski...
