I loved the way this smelled in magazines so I went ahead an splurged. It's nice, but on, it reminds me of Chanel No. 5, perhaps more elusive and disreet. Have to admit, I'm somewhat let down,...

I'm really surprised to see the Prada name on this - Prada, originator of sophisticated fragrances. This is more like an Escada which, to me at least, is offensive in it's in-your-face cloying...

Well, that's a simple scent: caramel followed by benzoin, followed by musk. A cozy skin scent but doesn't excite me in any way. I have to stick my nose to my wrist to smell a hint of sweet musk...

LOVE this fragrance! This fragrance is a 'grown-up gourmand', sweet without being cavity-inducing and cloying. I don't understand how it could be compared to Pink Sugar. To me, Pink Sugar is more...

I love this scent- it is a sweet yet sophisticated scent with caramel and vanilla notes, as far as I can detect. Maybe some amber... It's a gorgeous scent, powdery on the dry down, but MY GOD where...

Smelled good in the magazine, but when I tried a sample, this scent gave me a headache. The vanilla scent is way too strong. This is not a light, fresh scent. It's more dark for everyday use. I...

It lives up to its name, but in a bland kind of way. Sweet and not unpleasant, but I have no desire to smell like it. Longevity for me was decent, a few hours. DH couldn't stand it!

I got a large decant of this for testing. I didn't expect to like it as I don't like overly sweet sugery frags, I was pleasantly surprised by this. It is not SUPER sweet, it's gently sweet with a...

The scent of this perfume is lovely, light and fresh. I was excited to receive it as a Christmas gift but discovered that it is light, yes, so light that the scent evaporates within minutes. In...

I don't like to get perfumes as gifts because I usually hate them, so when my husband gave this to me and I read the name I though I was in for a headache, since I don't like sweet scents, but I...

when i first spray this, for the first few second I think of Aquolina Pink Sugar (but after smelling APS I realize APS is ALOT sweeter) then quickly it turns into something else I can't describe. ...
