It’s one of the richest citrus scents I’ve ever tried; wearing it in the morning gives you that energy and happiness to kickstart the day. The downside is it doesn’t last at all. It’s usually on offer at airports, and that’s the only way I’d buy it again.

A good alternative to Nautica Voyage, don’t get me wrong, they don’t smell the same or even similar, but they are in the same line of cheap, easy day-to-day perfumes, especially in the heat. Unlike Voyage, this has a much more mandarin opening; I’d describe it as mandarin juice with ice and a light touch of wood and jasmine. Very youthful and suitable for any occasion that isn’t very formal.

It’s like the typical ‘granny vibe’ perfume, with a well-concentrated mandarin at the start. In several shops, it reminds me a lot of Versace Pour Homme but much less masculine. This would be perfect for a seasoned woman, a cheeky milf reviving her golden years. It’s not bad; it’s one of those perfumes that just smells good. It’s too simple, though the dry-down has an interesting creaminess; the musk gives body to the citrus and creates a nice trail. I don’t dislike it, but it’s one of the last I’d choose in a quick selection; I’d have to plan its use carefully. Scent: 5.8 Projection: 6.1 Longevity: 2.8 Final Rating: 5/10 ***52.7% perfection***

I tried it and felt very citrusy; you can smell the mandarin, lime, and lemon, plus marine notes, almost like Avon’s 300 Km/h but for my skin, it feels very greasy when applied because on hot days I sweat when wearing it, losing its scent. However, I’d recommend using it on cold days.

A fairly basic citrus fragrance with disappointing longevity and trail. I was about to buy it blindly, but I preferred to test it first in a department store. The scent is pleasant, though generic, and in the end, one confirms its poor performance. On my skin, it barely lasted an hour or two, and its trail was practically non-existent. I give it a 6/10.

I love it; it’s that fresh-fruit-clean 🍊🏵️🧼 vibe I always look for in fragrances, and it’s good quality. It doesn’t last long, but you can reapply every 4 hours without guilt because it’s cheap, so you can pull the trigger as much as you like without issues. Edit: I used it yesterday, 6 hours later, and a waitress in a café gave me a compliment. I couldn’t even detect it myself by that time, but apparently, others could.

I’d heard of it. I applied it to my wrist one day to see how it evolved. A simple yet balanced fragrance; I’d say it opens with a soft mandarin and a citrus scent that, after half an hour, is enveloped in a marine and spicy touch that I love. In the base, you can perceive a very soft fruity and floral note. Be careful not to overapply because it lasts 3 hours.

This has been my signature scent for over 20 years. It’s a fragrance I’d describe as a very fresh mandarin that gives the sensation of having just stepped out of the shower; it’s very neat, well-rounded, not obvious in its notes, not overpowering, and quite discreet… but precisely in that last point lies its biggest flaw; it doesn’t last absolutely anything. I’ve reached the point of applying more than 15 sprays in a single wear, and after 30 minutes, it disappears completely. Anyway, it’s well worth it because it’s extremely cheap and has a sparkling, relaxed, very pretty vibe. For the past few years, I’ve only bought it on Amazon because it costs $30 USD, whereas anywhere else it’s $50 USD, and I wouldn’t pay that for this perfume, even though I love it so much, due to its longevity issues.

It’s a fairly sparkling citrus, with a well-mandarin opening (if such a word exists…). I like its name quite a bit, because indeed it’s a fragrance that projects happiness, enthusiasm, energy, and good vibes. Its only BUT: longevity and trail. If you want others to perceive it, you have to apply generously (I use at least 10 sprays) and then reapply at least every 4 hours. Let’s say that for its price, this isn’t a problem. I have the 300 KM/H from AVON, and yes, both go down the same road…. And both are quite weak in longevity. I’d recommend them only because their prices are low, plus they’re quite likable and not overpowering. But be warned about their trail and longevity. For 100% summer use, daytime, if it’s sunny it’s even better, and in informal, relaxed contexts. The outfit that makes a perfect match would be: sandals, drill trousers, a Hawaiian/guayabera/summer shirt, glasses, and a desert-style hat. That’s it!

A fresh fragrance; it’s the only one I’ve bought again. It’s nothing extraordinary, but for its price, it’s worth it, though you shouldn’t have high expectations. Ideal for staying at home freshly showered on a weekend morning, after the gym, or going for a walk with the dogs, running errands, etc. It can also be used for the office, but I personally prefer something less citrusy for that. Box: The box is made of light cardboard with a normal design, orange with the perfume name and brand, nothing out of the ordinary. 7/10 Bottle: At first, I didn’t like it, but I grew to love it; it’s clean and the colour is striking, the cap fits perfectly with that shiny metallic colour, it’s not very ergonomic but looks good on a display. 8/10 Atomiser: Average, it’s good but nothing extraordinary. 7/10 Price: I got it in Mexico for $35 USD, which is okay; considering this is one of those fragrances to be used very frequently, it’s a good price to buy another bottle without issues when the first one runs out. 9/10. Longevity: Personally, I don’t feel I have good longevity; at most, it lasts about 2 hours if you scratch it, but it’s a perfume for that, short activities or where there’s no need to project, something subtle, and it clearly fulfils that function. 7.5/10 Trail: Limited but not bad; you have to apply well and without fear; it will never be annoying. It will radiate a bit beyond the arm at the start and then just at skin level, but again, this fragrance isn’t about projecting and invading an entire room, so it’s satisfactory. 8/10 Compliments: I remember it was the first perfume that got me compliments; it was an Uber driver while I was in the back, so I was surprised it was noticeable from that distance. In the short term, yes, it gets compliments. 9/10 Final Note 7.9/10 Conclusion: Very fresh fragrance, one of the best citrus ones I’ve tried; you don’t need to expect great longevity or projection, but that’s what this fragrance is not about. This is the best addition to the collection if you’re looking for that subtle weekend fragrance, the scent of relaxation after completing the day’s tasks.

I see this as super unisex and it’s my lifesaver in the heat. To me, it smells like tangerine peel, fresh, citrusy, with that bitterness I enjoy. The longevity and trail aren’t the best, but I don’t mind reapplying every four hours. If I wear a lot, it lingers on clothes for over eight hours. I use it to blend with my other perfumes to make them fresher. It feels like a staple, but I’ll be buying it again because I can’t find anything that smells so purely of tangerine; this does it perfectly.

Viacber
What a lovely scent! I tried it on a friend, but I still can’t decide to buy it for myself.
-
DavidLópez
Clinique Happy is fresh, luminous and uncomplicated, ideal for anyone seeking something cheerful, light and safe. However, its short longevity, generic evolution and recent reformulations make it unattractive if you’re looking for a lasting trail or originality. If you’re drawn to its citrus brightness but value presence more, better look for other options with better performance or more complex fragrances.
-
titancilo
I absolutely love this cologne! Fresh for intense heat days, nothing heavy and very refreshing. A pity about the longevity, but everyone likes the scent. It’s a classic and at the price I paid, I don’t mind that it doesn’t last. I had to have it. I’d give it a 7/10.
-
Wlad Molina
A touch of freshness without great pretensions. I knew exactly what I wanted. My expectations weren’t high because everyone said the same: delicious, fresh, but with poor longevity. And so it was. From the start, it smells like revitalising shower gel, with tangerine, mint and aquatic touches creating immediate freshness. The opening is sparkling, like a cold bath in the heat. As it dries down, the citrus loses intensity and leaves an aquatic essence with a subtle mint note. It reminds me a lot of Armani Code Sport, but here the mint takes charge. It’s unisex, relaxed and unpretentious. Ideal for summer and any age. It’s not revolutionary, but it delivers. Rating: 8.5/10.

Chechorv
I discovered it thanks to a friend who has been using it for years and told me about its versatility. It’s a 90s classic, a vibrant aromatic citrus, accessible and full of energy. The opening is sparkling and revitalising, with tangerine and lime giving a juicy freshness. The marine notes give it a clean, summery character, while the jasmine and rose in the base add a balanced floral touch. It’s the kind of fragrance that never fails: perfect for the gym, hot days or when you want something fresh and carefree. On my skin, it’s a 10. It reminds me a lot of Nautica Voyage, another affordable and versatile option. Both are fresh, accessible and perfect for any collection. If you’re looking for something cheerful and easy, Clinique Happy is an excellent choice. My final rating is 6.9/10.

Daily wear, yes or yes. It’s a rich fresh scent, smelling of citrus soda, as if you were pouring it over yourself. For heat, spring and summer. The compliments come in; women like fresh scents. The downside is that it doesn’t last at all. You don’t pay much, but if it lasted a bit longer, it would be spectacular. A six that could easily be an eight.
-
Germ4l
It’s fresh, rich, simple and brilliant. A very potent tangerine with little reach. I use it to go training; I put it on before leaving and when I shower after an hour of sport, there’s almost nothing left. It gives you one or two very pleasant, flat hours. Do you fancy smelling of tangerine for a while? Then yes, go for it 🍊🍊.
-
Nekunori
This perfume was part of my childhood thanks to my mother applying it to me. Its name says it all; it’s a ‘happy’ fragrance. If it lasted longer, even just one or two hours, without a doubt I’d consider it my favourite and signature scent. In my review, don’t expect anything striking, that projects or reaches the person next to you; unfortunately, it doesn’t project. It’s a balanced orange between ‘effervescent’ and ‘creamy’, it’s fresh, fulfils its function, that’s about it. At the current price (2025), I think better options can be found if you’re looking for better projection and longevity.

Discordia
If you want a perfume just to put on after a bath and stay at home, this could serve you. If you’re looking for something more, go look elsewhere or you’ll feel cheated.
-
Dassbartender
My first perfume, gifted to me by my father when I was around nine or eleven. Fresh, unpretentious, and incredibly pleasant for my age, more than just a gem. Every time I try it, it brings back nostalgia and a smile.
-
EnriqueSeguraJ
A pleasant outing. I don’t like the dry-down; it isn’t strong but smells a bit of market vegetables. The longevity is scant. It’s very popular as a signature scent; the citrus side is excellent. I’d rate longevity 6, projection 9, and dry-down 6. I see people love it despite the longevity and keep buying it.
-
iorelk
It was a masterpiece back in 2000. It lasted all day and left a scent in the whole room. It was sweeter, mandarin-like, with an effervescent touch. Now it lasts about two hours and smells of floor disinfectant. They’ve ruined it with reformulations. There is a better one that came out afterwards.
-
Perfume Eterno
Clinique Happy is refreshing, transporting you to a light and vibrant world. Its aroma is delicious, with a note reminiscent of sharpening a pencil, something crisp that blends with citrus and marine notes. Mandarin and green lemon provide energy, with a warm woody base and aquatic notes perfect for summer. The balance is harmonious, cheerful, and full of life. The weakness is longevity; it fades quickly, which is a drawback if you seek something enduring. Nevertheless, the freshness and well-being it conveys make it recommended for daily wear. It is light, cheerful, and perfect for warm climates. Although longevity isn’t its best feature, its scent is very pleasant, and I recommend it 100% to those seeking something fresh and energetic.
-
MaximoRV
Fresh and very pleasant. Ideal for hot days, after a shower, or for the gym. Good longevity and projection for a citrus; around 5-6 hours and 2 hours respectively. Recommended if you find it at a good price. Rating: 7.5/10.
-
JamieMcLove
I love it; it’s the perfect scent I’ve always sought. Citrus with mandarin as the star, flowers that make it clean, almost soapy, and a base of green and fresh woods. It smells crisp and sparkling, like squeezing an orange or mandarin and drinking the juice straight. The downside is it lasts very little, and the trail is barely an hour. I wish it projected and lasted longer, but I understand it’s meant to keep you fresh with yourself. The scent is precisely that, HAPPY.
-
Zekrom0770
Fresh, classic, citrusy, and perhaps a bit metallic at the base. It’s excellent, giving that clean touch after a shower. The only issue is longevity; it doesn’t last more than 4-5 hours in hot weather.
-
Jcarloss
I liked it very much; very sparkling citrus, feeling fresh and green. Excellent for the heat. I think it’s very good for casual occasions or daily wear.
-
jarsofjam
The paradigm of aquatic perfumes, this one and suddenly Nautica Voyage, there’s no more. On YouTube, there’s almost a genre of content dedicated to perfumes to lift miniskirts in jest; Happy will never be in those rankings, thank goodness. Clean, discreet, and unpretentious.
-
LazaroFragances
The scent is fresh and combines orange with touches of lemon. A delight that everyone will enjoy. But the longevity on skin is terrible; after three hours, it’s barely noticeable. I don’t ask for six hours, but at least to reach four decently. That said, as it costs between 30-35 euros for 100ml, it can be reapplied without problems. I’d give it a 6.
-
JoWalker
Definitely, the name suits it perfectly. I love everything about the scent; it’s the perfect citrus and would almost be on my favourites list, were it not for its poor longevity. I wear it a lot, but after two hours I feel like I’m wearing nothing, and my skin barely smells. I reserve it for home or family visits.
-
Katakraker
Perhaps it’s one of my favourite summer fragrances; I’ve bought it several times, but I no longer purchase it as it possibly has the worst performance (at least on my skin), disappearing completely in under an hour and projecting very little. If you like Happy, try Nikos Sculpture; it doesn’t smell the same but evokes the same sensations. It’s easy to find and a good price. The performance isn’t great, but in my opinion, it’s slightly superior to Happy.
-
mauriciomferrari
They gifted it to me, and I thought it was very X, but it’s quite durable for daily wear in the heat. It’s brilliant, and I’m surprised by the number of compliments I get for being so simple… PS: No perfume should be bought blind.
-
JuanCarlosMarreroPerez
It smells delicious now, orange, fresh and green. Wonderful for home. Ideal for the heat. Its performance is mediocre, but it’s worth it for the price and the scent. If you spray 20 times and combine it with a leather jacket on a cool spring evening, the combined scent is exquisite.
-
JamemesxD
The best fragrance for sport or very casual situations. It smells clean, citrusy, very pleasant, nothing intrusive, innocent, bright and linear. Its longevity is just enough for your gym routine or something very casual, and honestly, I’d love for it to last longer because it truly is worth it. I recommend it if you’re looking for a casual daily signature scent at a good price (around $20 for 100ml).
-
Alan Duque
A rich, well-citrus scent that becomes slightly sweet when dry. It’s a light, pleasant, relaxed and totally informal fragrance, easy to like. The main problem is the longevity; I think it projects for only half an hour, after which it’s just skin scent, and that lasts only one or two more hours. That’s why I don’t think I’ll buy it again; it’s a shame because I quite like the scent. I’d recommend buying it only if there’s a considerable discount, as the price is high for what it offers, and it’s best for home use or short afternoon outings, as it doesn’t last long enough for several hours out.
-
Viewsofpf
A truly exquisite fragrance, citrusy, smelling of cleanliness and bitter orange. Unfortunately, its longevity and projection are scarce, but it can be reapplied, considering it can be found at a very good price if you know where to look. It starts with clear citrus, a bitter mandarin, before giving way to floral notes that never make it feminine. Anyway, a comfortable fragrance, ideal for someone whose job prevents them from wearing intense scents. It’s not an aroma to impress anyone, just for use in periods of extreme heat or going to the beach. The atomiser is truly poor. Scent: 10/10 Longevity: 5/10 Projection: 4/10 Versatility: heat days only. Price: can be found at a good price if you know where to look, never in retail or on Clinique’s website.
-
Jaime Ramírez
Delicious citrus scent like mandarin, starring alongside lemon, lime and marine notes accompanied by florals. It’s very much in the style of Acqua di Gio EDT, ideal for hot days. If you like it but feel it doesn’t last long, I recommend buying the Fraiche Dupe version; it’s a shop of very good and economical clones 🔥🆗🍊🍋🌷.
-
Mauro.A.81
Very fresh fragrance; I love the scent, various citrus especially mandarin, very wearable and ideal for summer. The trail isn’t strong but in my case it stays for five hours discreetly, doesn’t bother anyone; on the contrary, I’ve received good comments about the fragrance.
-
hugdlm
Very fresh and honestly, I do feel it’s unisex without being floral; I use it sometimes to go to uni and sometimes to exercise. I think it has very good skin longevity but doesn’t last long projecting; I think it’s a very noble scent, I love it and for the price (approx. $30) it seems an EXCELLENT OPTION.

If you want to go out for a walk or spend a day in the countryside with friends, dressed in your jeans, trainers, and a nice t-shirt, wear Happy. It smells of a little orange, but a sweet orange, like caramel or a sweet gumdrop. It’s soft, pleasant, and gives you vitality. It’s a perfume for these informal situations, for solitary days, perfect. It’s cheerful, just like its name; they couldn’t have defined it better in a single word.
I’m absolutely thrilled. People in Spain would say today, 25/06/2022, that after years of searching for a dupe or something close to Tommy Hilfiger’s True Star, I found it in this fragrance. I’m truly in love; my nose isn’t trained to understand the notes, I just know that the more I smell it, the more memories I have. Memories that are very Happy, just like its name.
I like it very much.
I really like this perfume, but whenever I wear it, people always say I smell like rotting orange, and I do feel it too, like when you leave an orange out and it starts to go off. It has an orange-clementine aroma with a strange bitterness, but it doesn’t bother me; it lifts my spirits and makes me feel like I’m in the countryside, even though others don’t like it much.
My unforgettable Happy, my signature fragrance from my teenage years. I’ve lost count of how many bottles I’ve bought and I’ll keep buying them because I have a unique affection for it. Those closest to me say Karen smells like Happy. Love at first sniff: a fresh opening, sweet from the fruits, where I predominantly sense orange and apple. The dry-down comes quickly, adding freshness from flowers to the fruity-citrus scent; in my opinion, the most prominent are the lily of the valley, magnolia, and lily. In the base, you can perceive this whole conjunction of notes, a fresh, floral, citrus, and clean aroma. One of my favourites for spring-summer and hot days. Moderate trail, lasting 7-8 hours. One of the most lovely fragrances I’ve ever experienced. I love it.
Happy is like a summer day. Its scent evokes a sunny, fresh day, definitely outdoors, whether in the countryside, at the beach, or in the city. It lives up to its name because it smells of happiness, freshness, good moments, and good news. It makes me imagine a beautiful table with a large bouquet of freshly cut flowers in the centre, and around it, many freshly cut citrus fruits, with oranges predominating. All those scents mixed and scattered by the wind…
I own this perfume and I like it, but it hasn’t won me over. I feel the mimosa note is a bit heavy, and besides, it lasts three hours on my skin, perhaps due to my skin chemistry. I give it 8 out of 10. What a surprise with this perfume; it’s the only one I own that people ask me about when they want to know what I’m wearing.
Clinique Happy is a complex citrus scent that smells like when an orange or lemon has overripened. It also has a soapy, sharp undercurrent that I no longer enjoy; I used to like it in my adolescence, but not anymore. It reminds me very much of Tommy Girl by Tommy Hilfiger, Orange by Hugo Boss, Eternity by Calvin Klein, and Hugo Boss Women. My sense of smell has definitely changed… now I prefer citrus that smells like freshly squeezed, sweet juice, such as Light Blue by Dolce & Gabbana, Funny by Moschino, Agatha Ruiz de la Prada’s Drops of Colour, and I Love Love by Moschino.
I bought it for my wife and she didn’t like it; I offered it to my teenage daughter and she wasn’t impressed either, so I decided to wear it myself. At first, it smells of almost overripe citrus, a slightly rancid tone, but then a very pleasant aroma of fresh flowers emerges, that ‘clean’ scent so many people love. The longevity is around 3 to 4 hours. I’ll keep using it until the bottle is empty.
Happy is a classic I haven’t worn for years, but I felt brave enough to buy it again because I remembered it. It smells of ripe, slightly bitter orange, a scent that leaves me feeling fresh and cheerful. It’s usually recommended for summer, but I tried it in autumn and was surprised: now I detect sweeter, floral notes, that very sweetness some people mention. If it seems bitter to you and you don’t like it, try it in autumn. In summer, it lasts about 5 or 6 hours, which is a long time for me, as the fresh, clean fragrances I enjoy most last very little on my skin.
This perfume is the culprit of my perfume addiction. My mum gave it to me when I finished primary school, and I loved it. It has been hard to find it again. I want it back in my collection.
I’ve wanted it for ages! I think it’s in the top 3 of classic citrus scents of all time. I bought it in a European duty-free at a very good price and loved it when I tried it. As soon as I landed in Chile, I rushed to a duty-free to compare prices, and besides being much more expensive, it smelled different. Different formulations? Different climate? Does anyone else experience this? In any case, I was happy with my purchase. A sweet, clean little orange that lasts a long time. I recommend it to all citrus lovers.
I tested it in the perfumery; I loved the opening, but not how the scent settles afterwards. I now understand the reference to very overripe oranges; it’s not to my taste.
It’s alright. I know that’s not an enthusiastic phrase, but it’s the feeling it gave me. I saw a bottle of Happy next to Aromatics Elixir and, out of curiosity, sprayed the latter. I decided to try it. It took me a while to notice it because it seemed faint, perhaps due to people around me spraying without a care. After reinforcing it, I perceived the orange, though nuanced by more citrus that give it body and the sweetness of ripe fruit. It does have a hint of bitterness, but it didn’t clash. The development moves to well-worked flowers, not spectacular; I couldn’t identify every note due to its tenacity. Over time, the cardboard showed no further nuances. Overall, it’s a correct fragrance, without major pretensions other than providing comfort in high temperatures. It’s pleasant for the surroundings, and there’s nothing more to say. In conclusion, it’s alright.
Smells like soap and cleanliness. On my skin, it leaves that post-shower scent with old bar soap (if you’re from Chile, it’s Le Sancy). I hate light blue citrus scents, so I was surprised by the dry-down after seeing the notes. It’s a clean floral citrus. I found it at a good price in 50 ml, perfect for hot climates.
I tested it dry in the perfumery, as I didn’t dare try it on my skin in case it smelled odd. On me, it smells like pure Dalsy with orange caramel (which I hate) and has a stale perfume aftertaste. It’s not for me.
It smells like sunscreen; there’s a specific brand with that aroma, but in the end, it’s nice. The orange note is like overripe fruit, yet it’s fresh and very vintage. It’s alright, though I didn’t love it; it’s a bit of a ‘meh’ 😏.
Fresh and versatile. During my teens, I used Avon’s Clearskin soap, and this smells identical. It smells clean and youthful, hehe.
I’ve been collecting perfumes for years and, being a classic citrus, I didn’t pay much attention to it. I bought it on sale two weeks ago and regretted not using it sooner; I loved it. It’s a pity it doesn’t last more than three hours, but for the price, I have no complaints.
I absolutely love it; I’ve been wearing it for years. Even though I try new things, I always come back to Happy. It’s my signature scent: soft, sparkling, and delicate. I only compare it to Miss Dior Chérie, which I used to wear, but sadly it’s no longer made.
I owned it and enjoyed it immensely. I’m not a fan of citrus, yet there was something about this that I liked. Although it has no coffee, its base notes reminded me of coffee or wood. I really liked it. I would definitely use it again.
I loved it. I adore citrus and white florals, so it was a safe purchase. On my skin, it lasts moderately, but nothing a simple reapplication can’t fix.
This perfume made me fall in love with woody scents, even though it contains no actual woods. Perhaps it’s the blend of notes that initially smells creamy yet dry, reminiscent of wood, similar to the vibe of Natura. I believe it performs better than Carolina Herrera’s 212; I tried it recently and it lasted all day. The downside is that I think it’s far too expensive for what it projects. I know Clinique products are good, but this is excessive. Nevertheless, if I had the money, I’d happily pay for it. It accompanied me through my best years of youth and night outs, thanks to its beautiful roll-on presentation with a gloss on the other side. Despite being a clean scent, it has good performance for a night out.
To be honest, it felt too synthetic or lacked any scent. I had high expectations based on the reviews and was deeply disappointed.
I dislike it entirely. It’s awful. I gave it as a gift.
Review-based purchase: a bad idea. You must try perfumes on your skin. It reminds me of O de L’Orangerie by Lancôme, which I used years ago. I don’t dislike it, but it doesn’t enchant me. It’s a floral scent for summer, not fresh.
I didn’t like it at all. It doesn’t smell like perfume.
I bought it blindly and it was a mistake. It doesn’t smell sweet or fresh. I prefer the men’s version, which is more harmonious and fresh. I was looking for citrus, but here the orange smells like very overripe fruit, almost going off, a dry scent that I dislike thoroughly.
At first, you notice tangerine and orange citrus notes, but after half an hour, everything fades away.
Happy is from a well-known and affordable brand, but don’t buy blindly. It’s citrusy, yes, but with an intense bitterness: grapefruit and prune jam, with a pipe tobacco note. The opening is harsh, almost rancid, featuring an overripe orange that smells sour, nothing like lemon sorbet or fresh tangerine. If you don’t like it, it will surprise you. But once the opening settles, if it matches your skin, it’s magical. I’ve owned thousands of Clinique bottles; I always buy and let them macerate. I absolutely love it, even though I know it’s not for everyone.
When I bought it I loved it, now that it’s been open for a year, it has macerated and is very heavy, it’s not a light fresh floral citrus. The mimosa mixed with magnolia plus the amber give it a honey, caramel touch, very heavy, like a Nivea-style cream, it feels synthetic. It’s one of the few cases where upon maceration the perfume takes on a body I don’t like. If you like fresh citrus I don’t recommend it at all.
I love the citrus notes in this fragrance, the orange, the lemon, the tangerine, everything is delicious, but combined with the mimosa it’s a bomb, truly I liked it a lot, I’m amazed, I would buy it again.
I’ve tried it several times because I adore citrus, but no. The opening is excellent, even the first hour I wear it I like it, but the dry-down is horrible on my skin. It smells sour to me and even after a few more hours, when I try to find the remnants of the perfume on my skin, I get a strange smell, like plastic. Definitely it doesn’t have good chemistry on my skin. I’ll gift it to a friend who likes it.
Sorry, but this scent is what I DO NOT look for in a perfume. It smells like soap, someone mentioned Avon Clearskin and that teenage memory came back to me, yes, perhaps it smells like that. Synthetic, plastic, astringent. Is it my skin? But it smells like ‘deep cleaning’, like a mix of chemical products to remove very stuck-on grime 🙁
I just want to know if it’s true that it smells the same as the discontinued Avon Hippie Chic??
I love this fragrance, it wakes me up and puts me in a happy mood. The opening is very citrusy, but I sense some spicy notes I can’t quite define, reminding me of pepper, not declared in the olfactory pyramid. Unfortunately, although the opening is explosive, it doesn’t stay on the skin for long; in fact, the last time I bought it directly from Clinique I noticed the quality is very poor. The men’s version is wonderful too and does have better longevity despite being an EDT.
Price-to-performance ratio: Perfume bargain! Good, pretty, and cheap. Smells clean and cheerful, herbal and citrusy. Exquisite, very for the day, happy in the office or uni. Excellent. Yes, it lasts a long time and you can smell it on clothes. Perfume bargain! To keep as a staple, for every day, for men and women. Can be bought blind totally. No one can possibly not like it, clearly.
The tangerine stands out at first, very fresh and natural, no smell of dishwasher detergent, it smells realistic. However, it doesn’t last long and projects less. In general, citrus notes fade quickly but this one fades too fast. I bought it thinking it was an economical option for Guerlain’s Mandarin Basilic, and no, better to save up for a higher quality one.
100% citrus but softer than Light Blue. Ideal for hot days from early on. I liked it more once it had settled on the skin; it lifts the spirits. Smells of grapefruit and tangerine. The downside is it doesn’t last long 🥲
Oh dear, it didn’t take… to me it smells like over-ripe oranges, so it was a no for my nose. I ended up using it as a room freshener.
