Have you worn Dream?

Tell us how it opens, how it settles on your skin, how long it lasts and when you wear it.

  1. The bottle is elegant and the sky-blue glass is lovely, but the scent is fairly flat with little personality. It smells fruity, even though it’s not listed in the ingredients. Plus, it has a very sugary note. Honestly, I’ll soon forget about it.

  2. marshmellowsymphony

    On my skin, this cologne is barely noticeable, let alone amusing. Let’s hope it improves with time… for now, I wouldn’t buy it again. If you’re looking for something by this singer, try Rock or Red Dance Midnight instead; I won’t say anything else.

    At first, it smells delicious, but as soon as it dries down, the scent disappears. I loved it, but the bottle ran out quickly because I needed many sprays to get a decent smell.

  4. aldonunez

    Once dry, the blend of blood orange, rose, and caramel is quirky but truly delicious. I see it as slightly unisex. It’s a good perfume for the price.

    Beautiful perfume, both the scent and the microphone bottle. However, the longevity and projection are quite low.

  6. I adore the scent: it starts citrusy, then settles into a sweet and floral finish. It reminds me of Sweet Dreams due to the rose and caramel, but this smells fresher and lacks that synthetic note I liked in the other. The downside is that it doesn’t last or project; I sprayed it eight times and it just sticks to the skin, more like a body spray than a perfume.

    Beautiful perfume, with a lovely aroma and a microphone-shaped bottle. However, the longevity and sillage are quite low; it’s clear it doesn’t last long.

  8. Angel3z

    I love the aroma: citrus opening, sweeter base, and a floral touch. It reminds me of ‘Sweet Dreams’ due to the rose and caramel notes, but this one is fresher and lacks that synthetic note I didn’t like in the other. I’d prefer if it lasted longer and projected a bit more, because even with eight sprays, it stays close to the skin, almost like a body spray.

  9. Nothing gourmand. It’s a soft, fruity floral, feminine and delicate, with a powdery touch in the opening even if it’s not listed. It sounds very basic and the longevity is non-existent.

  10. Nothing gourmand. It’s floral, fruity, soft, feminine, and delicate, even slightly talcum-powdered. Although they don’t say so, the opening smells quite like talcum powder. Very basic and with poor longevity.

  11. w3xtrilogy

    It has a strange yet exquisite smell, almost addictive. It reminds me of Chanel’s Eau Premiere, especially as it dries down. It seems like a basic celebrity perfume and, quite frankly, didn’t surprise me at all.

  12. Lidiadeer

    It smells very similar to Paris Hilton’s Can Can, only this one is less sweet.

    I tried it again and it smells like Black Opium EDT 2018; it’s like a mini dupe. I own both and the similarity is 95%, matching well in the opening. The Dream would need a bit more coffee in the dry-down to be an exact dupe, which I already have with Black Opium. I’m willing to swap this Shakira fragrance for any perfume; please write to me. Thanks <3333

    I tried it again and it smells like Black Opium EDT 2018—it’s like a mini dupe. I own both and the similarity is around 95%; they match well on the top notes, though it lacks a bit of coffee in the base to be an exact dupe. I’m trading this Shakira fragrance for any perfume you have, just message me, thanks <3333

    Light and super fresh, lasting all day. Suitable for any occasion and season. Leaves a wonderful feeling.

    Smells more feminine than masculine, with a fresh floral opening that settles into a soft sweetness. Perfect for everyday wear in spring and summer, and let’s not forget that microphone-shaped bottle—it’s original and lovely!

    I find it more feminine than masculine. It starts fresh and floral, then turns slightly sweet but soft. Ideal for everyday wear, especially in spring and summer. The microphone-shaped bottle is original and pretty!

    Although they say it’s unisex, I see it as just for her. The fresh floral opening is a delight, but what caught my attention most was the dry-down: it leaves a sweet and delicate aroma. Like all of Shakira’s, it doesn’t last long and projects very little.

    The bottle and box are pretty and eye-catching, but the fragrance itself isn’t. It’s simple, suitable for daily wear, without that cloying sweetness, making it ideal for warm weather. On my skin, it lasts about three hours with very little sillage.

    Although it’s marketed as unisex, I see it as purely feminine. The fresh floral opening is very pleasant, but what really caught my attention is the dry-down: it leaves a sweet, delicate scent. Like with everything by Shakira, the longevity and projection are very weak.

    I love the smell; it’s super fresh and the idea of it being unisex seems perfect to me. The microphone-shaped bottle suits it brilliantly, just like when she sings on stage.

  23. ximvalper

    I don’t think it’s floral, fruity, or gourmand. It’s floral like ‘Queda en la piel’. It’s okay, unassuming. Suitable for day and night.
