(EDT) I am beginning to see these Oscar spinoffs as hidden gems. This newest version, Fresh Vanilla, is quite a pretty fragrance. It starts out bright and sparkling with a citrus feel, sweet but...

This is one that I always see on discount shelves. Now I know why. The opening is synthetically-fruity-floralish, just horrible! Smelling So De La Renta freshly applied makes my temples throb a...

I have always been really sensitive to scents and can't wear alot of perfumes. Trying to select a scent for myself is nearly always torture (migraines, swollene eyes - I mean torture) so I don't...

I don't love this, but I don't dislike it either. It's quite ambery and woody on me....quite pleasant but nothing special. There are many fragrances that I like more than Volupte.

(EDP) I have been seeing the towering red bottles of this at the counters for some time now, and decided to give it a whirl. Amazingly, this actually *does* smell just like a 'red satin' version of...

A pleasant and fresh fragrance with a little bit of a bite to it with that peppery note. I can see why some people find it a bit masculine, as I think a man could definitely get away with wearing...

Its a cool watery fragrance . First note has hints of peppers. Then goes into this powdery smell. Lasting power is around 3hrs. Not worth it for the price paid.

I first experienced Oscar when I was babysitting for this woman about 15 years ago who always smelled so nice! She was a no-nonsense woman who wasn't afraid to state her mind. I bought the edt a...

Has some nice opening melon notes, and overall is pleasant but uninspiring. Certainly not one I will be rushing out to re-purchase when it's finished.

I love the smell of this, although my sister seems to hate it.. the packageing is so cool! and it really suits me.
Fragrance doesn't last too long, but still ok.

I bought this on clearance for dirt cheap at a local drugstore. I took it home unsniffed based on good reviews here - I figured a 75% approval rating represented good odds for me, and the notes...

EDT: The current formulation is just OK for me. It is a sweet and safe floral though sort of one-dimensional, overblended. My memory of it from the early nineties is that of a more faceted floral....

My take: it's a light, sorta smells vaguely like roses but a cleaner/muskier/slightly soapier version (not too soapy). Does not smell "old lady" or "classic" or even "modern rose," categories into...

I usually stay away from florals because they tend to be overpowering, or too heavy on one flower, but this is a nice blend. The crazy appeal to this for me is that the first note reminds me of a...

A total scrubber of a smell (can't be classified as a fragrance!) I wonder if this is the same perfume as described in the positive reviews? I'm no stranger to strong or unusual scents (hell, I...
