    This makes me think of a beautiful hippy bookstore I used to go to - once the citrus wears off, it smells like incense on me. It gives me wonderful nostalgia and although I don't wear it, I always...

    I've browsed the reviews for the perfumes I wear (or have worn). It's interesting to see how one's woman's favorite can be another woman's waterloo. Proves that the success of a scent for you...

    To me this is neither "light", "citrusy", nor "unisex", and it is probably the patchouli that kills this one for me! Applied lightly on an man this might be ok.

    A true summer classic for men and women alike! I first discovered this fragrance when my husband tried it while we were on vacation. It is citrusy without being tart, as well as fresh and clean...

    I love this scent. Very clean and the dry down is wonderful. I used to wear it a year or so ago, and the bottle got broken and I didn't get another at the time. I recently purchased this last week...

    Love this original smell! It takes you back to a different time period. It puts me into a clearer state of mind. It is refreshing and sobering in it's honest straight no chaser crispness. Hands...

    This is very much verbena at the beginning. The word "old-fashioned" is pretty accurate, but to me that is because I always think of Scarlett O’Hara’s mother smelling of lemon-verbena in Gone with...

    A classic blend of rosemary, lavender, bulgarian rose, vervain and soft citrus notes. It is fresh, clean and softly sensual. Would smell great on men or women. It actually reminds of the way my...

    I see similarities to 4711, Florida Water, and other classic eaux de cologne, but this is in a class by itself and full-bottle worthy (if I can find a fresh bottle at a discount). The notes it...

    Definitely unisex this scent reminds me a little of ivory soap (with white flowers?) A little masculine for some women.

    I don't see anything so special in it. A very, very ordinary lemony smell, quite banal. A tad sharp & bitter, too. I wouldn't wear it.

    An ordinary lemony fragrance, something which is overpriced and doesn't smell like it! Very simple packaging, why somebody buy this when there are so many fragrances with character??? I have given...

    I love this classic unisex citrus. I admit that, when I first smelled it 10 years ago, I wondered what all the fuss was. For something reputed to be the scent shared by Frank Sinatra and Ava...

    I don't like it. To me, it smells just like 4711. Both unfortunately smell very "cheap" to my nose (well, for 4711 that's the case -you get what you're paying for- but I don't see the interest in...
