Gwen, I had a look at the reviews for this and if ever a fragrance got mixed reviews, this one did!! Some say too strong, others that it faded fast, try it again when next in Sephora and see if it '' speaks '' to you and don''t make your mind up until an hour or so into wearing the fragrance, see how it dries down and lasts on you. Also get another opinion as to how it smells coming from you, a separate '' nose'' should let you know if it is too strong or not, as our sense of smell can become immune quickly to a fragrance ( more''s the pity)

Wow, I really like this site.. just noticed it today..I am a perfume nut just like I am a diamond ring nut. Cannot get enough that is for sure. My favorite perfumes are:
Glicine byr acca kappa
Caesars Woman by caesars palace
Calycanthus by acca kappa
Eau L''amour by fragancias cannon in Argetntina
Most perfumes you can only buy in Las Vegas like the Acca Kappa, and then there is the Argentina perfume. They are just lovely smells, and they last pretty well all day long.
Like I always say if your going to wear perfume it has to last...
Could someone please help me get ahold of Can-nuk gurl, I do not know how from here...Thank you!!
Yeah, I mentioned that one on the last page and was wondering about its longevity because there are a ton of mixed reviews about it. Have you tried it? Did you think it was overpowering or barely-there, or neither? I''m looking for a light, subtle scent so I don''t want anything really heavy...Date: 8/15/2007 10:27:14 AM

I forgot to mention another new favorite: ''Sheer Veil'' by Vera Wang. It''s a light floral with Champagne Rose, Lavender Dream Rose, Violet, White Stephanotis, Gardenia, &White Lily.
I have it and love it!!Date: 8/20/2007 5:48:59 PM

Hi, Gwendolyn! I have Sheer Veil and I don''t think it''s overpowering at all. I think it''s light and subtle, but it has good staying power (on me, anyway).
Mass?!?!?? I believe you Del as I can see that perhaps! So glad you love it, it is an unusual glamorous foxy potion isn''t it? Did you get the parfum extrait or the eau de parfum - as these smell differently in a way? Give it some time on your skin, it often does different things on me! Last night I wore some when Hubby and I went out and it smelled really of sweet tobacco, that note was the most noticeable, then the other day it was all vanillary sweetness - I find it a little unpredictable but that is half the fun!Date: 10/4/2007 12:18:23 PM

I am currently trying the new Light Blue from D&G -- LOVE IT! Very nice for hot summer days.
My old favorites are the wonderful Angel and her cousin Angel Innocent. I get compliments every freaking time I wear it...but now it seems that EVERYONE is wearing it. I like Beautiful, too.

Wow! How is it that I have missed this post. I lurk here every single day and i can't take it anymore! This perfume thread has confirmed my suspicions that I am made for PS.
Tabac Blonde is something that I truly adore. Both my husband and 7yr old daughter love it on me, too. I always ask my daughter's opinion when it comes to perfume. She gave me huge thumbs up on this one. I have something of an obsession with jewelry and perfume. I even knew what sillage meant. lol Mitsouko by Guerlain is wonderful. I wear both Tabac Blonde and Mitsouko in the extrait form. Has anyone ever tried Mitsouko before?
It sure feels good to delurk. Thanks, Lorelei!
