I like this scent, the packaging and its reputation (along with advertising) is quite deceiving, it is a fairly light perfume (which should however really be applied in moderation), sweet warm...

Like any fragrance more than a decade old, many people have attached memories to this scent. Mine is of a friend, who was the most socially competent 16 year old to ever exist. You too would have...

I have not worn this perfume for many years, but just thinking of its scent brings back many fond memories. I did not like it the first time I tested it (1987), but it grew on me when a boyfriend...

I have worn this on and off since the 1980s. My late mom used to buy it for me at Christmas, and it brings back many fond memories. Poison makes a powerful statement on the right woman. It either...

Awful. And what's more, to my nose it smells the same on everybody - exactly as it comes out of the bottle. Awful.

Love the bottle, love the name, hate the perfume. I tried hard to like it as I love many florientals but this is just too much floral for me I guess. It just takes over and I can't smell anything...

Poison, in it's lovely dark purple bottle has unfairly copped a very bad reputation thanks to those who bathed in it during the 1980s/early90s. It is a fairly heavy, sweet fruity floral oriental...

If you like the smell of rotting garbage, this is the smell for you, but don't expect others to enjoy your presence. If they do, anyway, there's something else you're putting out there that keeps...

My mother uses this and I personally think it smells heinous. It reminds me of bug spray and it's really strong. There is nothing feminine about this scent.

I wore this for a few years, as anyone with a cobra tattoo (before it was fashionable!) would have to do. Unfortunately, its decadent dark fruitiness changed once it got on my skin. My husband said...

I was probably one of the first girls in my teeny tiny Texas town to get Poison via mail, thanks to a tear-out order form in Vanity Fair. I fell in love with it back in the 80's, and the love...

Never bought this because I have too many others and this is too easily identifiable, but boy, this just screams the 80's to me, and fits my definition of smelling "purple." But I loved the 80's...

I've been in love with Poison since I was a child. Now I have my own bottle and I think it works well on my chemistry, although hubby feels it wears off a bit fast. It's perfect for us...

Predominantly grapey, with a dark tartness biting through the sweet. Poison stayed fruity throughout wear, with a powdery undercurrent emerging on drydown. Quite an interesting scent, but...

I remember back in the 80's the advertisment for this was a young blonde girl with lots of purple makeup. I frankly, I think this perfume is best left for the geriatric generation.
