Though this scent reminds me of an older woman and it's definitely not a favorite of mine but I have some strange attraction to it I just can't explain. I honestly can't identify ANY notes in this...

I ran into a bottle of this today for $6 for 2.3 ounces, 80% at Big Lots. I was struck by how it smells like a poor man's Shalimar. Not in a bad way, more of an upscale Designer Imposter. I use...

I found a duo pack of Ciara and a huge original Cahrlie just before Christmas at my local CVS. The prices were too good to resist. I wore both thirty years ago and even though these are now...

I have not purchased this product, but I have definitely smelled it! To say that this is an "oriental" scent is stretching it. It should go in its own category with Emeraude (do they still make...

This doesn't smell at all like Bal a Versailles on me. It does smell glorious first on, but after dry down, it's a tamer version of Tabu, with the same cola notes Tabu gives me. If it stayed in...

I love how Ciara comes in different "strengths"-- they are ALL strong! I don't shy away from assertive oriental frags; I own and wear Youth-Dew and Obsession; but every time I try Ciara, I have to...

Can't afford Bal a Versailles? Try Ciara instead. I would agree with other reivewers who have compared the two. A lovely warm, woody oriental with soft floral undertones. Smells like heaven on me...

This scent reminds me of one of my all time favorites, Molinard's Habanita. It might just be my body chemistry, but they smell extremely similar on me. Ciara's notes are listed as Top: Vanilla,...

I admit it - I like this. A lot. Don't care if it's Revlon, don't care if you can get it at the local pharmacy...I just like it! :-) If it were packaged in a fancy bottle under a designer name...

I used to wear this in my teens, so obviously, it's been quite a while since I smelled it, but I loved it then. Even if it wasn't the nicest fragrance around, I'm sure it doesn't smell like "acrid...

I have to say this doesn't smell very good on me. I do think it is very good buy. Ok, I'll admit it. It reminds me of my late mother. When the scent wafts through the air, I think of her...she...

Tried a spritz at Walgreen's and this one is definitely a no-go on me. I'll give it a 5 for longevity -- I twice tried to scrub it off and it's still there on my wrists. It isn't that I dislike...

It's not cheap smelling! It smells like a SLIGHTLY lighter version of Obsession(which I don't like). It's what happens if you marry Obsession with Chanel no 5. and throw it a bit of Chantilly's...

This is a hidden gem among the drugstore shelves. It is for the confident, strong willed woman who isn't afraid to make her presence known! At the same time, I'd say Ciara is also intensly feminime...

I wore Ciara a lot in the early 80's - as did a lot of other women, it was quite popular then. I still like it and bought another bottle last year. It's quite satisfying to me in the Fall. ...
