    I was intrigued by all the positive reviews for this fragrance (from other sites as well) who mostly raved about the sweet peachiness aspect of this fragrance ...... my body chemistry does well...

    I tried Chinatown based on previous reviews. This fragrance is not for me.......very sweet, cloying, and weird. It's potent from the first spray and I do smell peaches but only during the...

    I was initially scared off of this one because of the peach blossom, and I really, really hate fruit scents, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that the peachiness was nicely held in check by...

    I've heard that this is a love-or-hate. For me, it's a love-and-hate - I love the dry-down and hate the top notes. The top notes are way to sweet for me. I felt instantly sick actually. However,...

    To me it's hate at first sniff. I understand this is a love or hate fragrance (and for me it is definitely hate) It is a sick stash of sweet-fruity-spicy so in-your-face ingredients......

    I'll say this about Chinatown: I love it enough to want a bottle despite the fact that the high concentration of oils in the Bonds irritate my skin! This composition is genius. Luca Turin was...

    This is one of those wonderful surprises. I am not a fan of most Bonds, but this has me captivated. I was originally attracted to the notion that it is a chypre and contains peach. I was...

    Wow! I can't believe how much I hated this! I mean, total scrubber for me. All I could smell was this nasty sickly-sweet fake butter smell. What IS that? Has anyone else got that? Like a tub of "I...

    This is an amazing, unique, spicy, yet sweet fragrance. I love this for its complexity and how not everyone even wears this/knows about the line in general. I grew up with incense, so I'm also...

    I'm glad I only purchased a sample of this - it seems like everyone loves it, and The Guide says it is a masterpiece, but on me it is one dimensional, sweet and boring. One of the few I've washed...

    Gorgeous scent, gorgeous bottle. I tested this twice in a store before I finally coughed up the cash to get it- something I can't really regret. It's undeniably feminine, extremely strong, and I...

    I must admit I haven't been too impressed with the Bond line. There seem to be so many that leave me going, "hmmm this smells exactly like....". Chinatown, so far, is the clear exception and winner...

    Based on the list of notes, I thought I would be kind of "meh" about Chinatown. But this fragrance is gorgeous! On me it starts out smoky and slightly incensy. There is only the vaguest hint of the...

    My chemistry seems to react really well with anything incense- Chinatown starts sweet and peach-blossomy (actually, a little too much so, so I dab it rather than spray it), and within an hour,...

    I have tried most of Bond's scents, and I think that this is my favorite. The only reason I had to knock a point off is because it has sucky staying power, especially for Bond :( I have to reapply...

    I normally won't rate fragrances unless I've tried them more than once and they're in the same family of scents I like. I gravitate towards woody-gourmands. I'm a big fan of New Haarlem by Bond...
