    I agree 100%! It smells of sweet cherries with that effervescent touch of champagne and a vanilla base. I’ve kept it for over a year and it hasn’t changed at all. Now that it’s summer in Chile, I’m giving it a new try.

  2. Noooo! Please, do not buy it if you dislike talcum powder. I was fooled by reviews calling it ‘clean, sweet, doll-like’, but the truth is it smells of cheap, disgusting powder. I bought it blindly and it was my big mistake. If you don’t want to smell like a new doll, listen to me.

  3. I bought it in 2020 and its scent is literally like that classic red cherry chapstick; it smells rich but can feel a bit synthetic at first.

  4. It resembles Lolita Lempicka but fruitier. As it dries down, the cherry notes, talcum, and patchouli become very noticeable.

  5. I bought it because they said it was similar to So Sweet by Lolita Lempicka, but no… I absolutely love the medicinal aroma of that one. Here, the cherry is dark, sweet, and powdery. For me, it’s a no; that Bellini scent prevails and the maraschino cherry gives me a headache and nausea.

  6. Jess Jiménez

    Sweet, very sweet… To me, it smells of figs and cream, but my husband sees it as more citrusy and does perceive the cherries; he’s crazy about it. It’s a super feminine, playful, and cheerful perfume. It doesn’t get old on me, isn’t cloying, nor overwhelming; I wear it all year round. Good sillage and longevity. Definitely one of my favourites.

  7. Goldcherry19

    Cheerful, sweet, and effervescent thanks to that touch of champagne accompanying the cherry. It’s pleasant to me, but only with a few sprays and in winter; in the heat it would be madness.

  8. Elizabethshelby

    It has a delicious cherry scent, nothing medicinal. Very sweet, it reminds me of the fruity and sweet fragrances from Britney and Victoria’s Secret in the 2000s, with vanilla but fresh. I think I like it even more than Natura’s Humor Proprio. Cheerful, happy, feminine, I love it. I see it as suitable for all year round except on very hot days. I was worried about the patchouli but it didn’t bother me; it’s worth having.

  9. aromadicta

    Dazzle smells like a doll, with a creamy touch of milk and strawberries. It lasts well on the skin and by the end of the day leaves a soft vanilla base. To me, it’s strawberries or cherries with milk and vanilla. It’s rich, undeniable, and wearable from girl to woman. It’s informal, nothing wrong with that. I wouldn’t buy it, but I would use it if gifted to me. Perhaps it’s coquettish, depending on who wears it.

  10. ariinbloom

    What a delight! I bought it in a set with the cream, body wash, and mini, and for the first time I finished everything all at once. It smells of cherry with a woody or sandalwood touch, making it ideal for all year round. Besides, for its price it has excellent performance: about five sprays last me around eight hours. I’ve heard it was reformulated, but mine was bought around 2020 or 2021 and it’s still perfect.

  11. The friend who is a fan of fresh trends has finally arrived; I have both the original and the trendy version, and my nose sees no difference—they are identical. I expected it to be like a cherry icee as people say on TikTok, but it’s nothing like that: it opens with cherry, but as it dries down it becomes vanilla and feels more nocturnal, ideal for a date night at the cinema or winter. I’m still searching for that winnie the pooh, tootsie pop, or icee scent, but this isn’t it. I see it as youthful and elegant, not childish, yet sweet and a little cloying. The trail is wide at first and tapers off with time; on my skin it lasted five hours and on clothes until the next day.

  12. It begins with a sparkling cherry note thanks to the champagne, with the cherry predominating alongside the florals and the musky base. Before the reformulation, it was a bomb that lasted for ages; this new version smells the same, but I feel it has less longevity, although the trail remains good.

  13. I fell in love with this perfume when I was 14 the first time I smelled it. It brings back memories of those beautiful times; it is lovely and very fruity: I sense that sweet peach transforming into an acidic cherry in syrup. Very subtly, there is a touch of talc, but nothing annoying or old-fashioned; on the contrary, it is very youthful. The reformulation disappoints me a little because before it lasted up to eight hours and now only about five.

  14. On my skin it has little longevity and projection, but at the price, it doesn’t matter. The opening is strong but lasts only a few minutes before giving way to the main star: a boozy, slightly acidic yet juicy cherry. Gradually, it is accompanied by apple after the peach, and finally settles on violet. On my skin, the other notes are not very noticeable, but I like how it develops; I would recommend it for fresh days.

  15. Mariel272201

    It’s the second time I’ve worn it. I had the original 30ml version before and loved it, and now, years later, I bought the reformulated 100ml again. For me, it remains a super fruity delight that puts me in a good mood. The opening is sparkling: a sweet, slightly acidic, and very juicy cherry. As it dries down, the cherry is still noticeable with a nutty touch. Today, in a taxi, a stranger told me he wanted that scent to permeate his car all day, and who among women wouldn’t like that? My eight-year-old daughter and I use it; on her it smells delicious and lasts all day on skin and clothes. It lasts for me too, and at the price, I have no complaints; even reformulated, it performs well for a celebrity fragrance.

  16. At first it smells sharp; on my skin the blend of notes results in a linear scent of boozy cherries and synthetic vanilla. My sister used it at university and I remember it lasted longer; in my experience with the new presentation, it lasts about four or five hours, with a moderate trail for the first hour and then it becomes weak. From my point of view, it is ideal for those seeking something youthful, for daytime and casual use, suitable for any season. I will finish the bottle but won’t buy it again; simply, it’s not for me.

  17. I love it! It smells like a cherry palette, with excellent longevity and projection, and I’ve received many compliments, especially from the gentlemen. It is sweet but I think I could wear it all year round. The best thing is the price; it has the three Bs.

  18. baji_keisuke

    It’s a very rich fragrance, probably youthful. It smells of acidic cherry with peach and apple, but the vanilla balances everything to achieve the right point between acidic and sweet. I also note a touch of champagne and nuts. It is talcky, but not as much as Katy Perry’s Meow. I’m waiting for the heat to use it more; I bought it in winter and stored it away because I preferred other perfumes at that time.

  19. Michelle Patt

    It is synthetic, yes, like the others by Paris Hilton, but it is a rich fruit. The first thing you notice is the cherry and the peach. It smells strongly; on my skin, the longevity and projection are not bad.

  20. I was looking for something different from Escada’s Cherry in the Air, and although it didn’t quite convince me at first, it has since become my favourite. It’s ideal for summer, smelling of a well-chilled cherry juice with an almond base. It has excellent value, is perfect for everyday wear and suits any age.

  21. This is my star scent from Paris Hilton: sweet, packed with cherry and with a sparkling touch of champagne. I love its sweet aroma without it being cloying. I recommend it to women and men who aren’t tied down by fragrance stereotypes.

  22. I have a love-hate relationship with this perfume. Sometimes it’s so cloying it gives me a headache, but on cold days or for sleeping in, I adore it. To my taste, it smells of very synthetic and poorly executed cherry and peach. The champagne and vanilla appear very weak and disappear quickly. I think the cherry notes need polishing so the other scents can be noticed. It’s cloying, synthetic and even childish, nothing for work as it’s overwhelming, but perfect for summer outdoor getaways.

  23. This perfume is a clear example of unrefined notes. The cherry here isn’t like that in Petite Robe Noire (which is my favourite), but smells weak and powdery, without grace. It’s a common perfume with no personality. It was a gift and I didn’t like it, so I gave the whole bottle away. I wouldn’t recommend buying it blindly. I was already starting to dislike the cherry note in these perfumes. If you’re looking for something well-made, go for Guerlain’s Petite Robe Noire; that’s where you’ll notice a real, polished cherry, nothing childish.

  24. w3xtrilogy

    It’s a sweet perfume, but without being cloying. It’s an explosion of champagne and cherries, with a little peach that blends in very well. It works brilliantly on skin as it doesn’t smell synthetic. I recommend it to those who like bold and spicy scents, as there is plenty of that in this fragrance. Without a doubt, I imagine Paris Hilton smelling like this at a party surrounded by compliments.

  25. natalieeeeeeeee

    On my skin, it smells of cherry with vanilla and a touch of champagne, a sweet but not cloying aroma. Many people tend to like it; it’s jovial but I don’t find it sophisticated. I use it for everyday wear… I bought it blindly and liked it, but I wouldn’t buy it again.

  26. Monsedoll85

    Dazzle is exactly as the reviews say: sweet and cherry-tinted, super pleasant and feminine. It smells of cherries and caramel, to the point where you might call it a ‘good girl’ perfume. If you like sweet scents, it’s a sound choice. The longevity is moderate; it doesn’t last a short time but not as long as others. It lasts much longer on clothes than on skin. Another success from PH, without a doubt. I love its little bottle with the shiny pink appliqués, very typical of Paris Hilton.

  27. Perfumaniaca 23

    For some reason, it reminds me of Katy Perry’s Mad Love (perhaps due to the fruit). The bottle is beautiful. At first, I sensed red berries, not cherry, but as it dries down, a exquisite, creamy and vanilla cherry note emerges, like a cherry and almond ice cream with chunks. You’d genuinely want to eat it. I barely tested the longevity, but given the price and size, it’s an excellent option. The trail is weak but the dry-down on skin is exquisite. I recommend it! A 10 for Miss Hilton.

  28. Reina Amigdala

    I’m quite surprised; it smells delicious. In my search for something cherry-scented, I found this. I loved it; it has a moderate trail and lasts about eight hours, plus it has a fantastic price. At first, it smells of fresh, acidic cherries, but it dries down to sweet cherries, those in syrup. Very pleasant indeed.

  29. At first, it smells like a pop-style cherry palette, and as it dries down, that sweetness becomes more vanilla. I like it; it’s quite rich. I see it as perfect for autumn wear.
