  1. It lives up to its name! It’s tender, delicate, and youthful. The patchouli is barely noticeable, which I appreciate as I’m not usually a fan, and it has a slight acidic note amidst many flowers; jasmine stands out followed by rose. It smells clean and fresh, nothing like cleaning products or shampoo. On my skin it lasts about six hours, especially on clothes. All for $8, what a bargain! If you like these scents, you’ll save a lot. It’s beautiful and at this price, you can’t go wrong. I’ve read that it doesn’t last long, but on me it projects well with 10 sprays. Note: Cherrybu is right; on skin it can sometimes become powdery, but not on clothes. If you dislike the powdery note, wear it on your clothes instead.

  2. It reminds me of Dior Joy. To me, it smells like armpit with powdery deodorant, just like that one, but other friends adored it and described it as a delicate scent ideal for the office. In the end, it’s a matter of taste. If you like Joy, this is your option: it’s 90% similar and, besides, it lasts longer on the skin.

  4. It smells clean, yet soft and unobtrusive. On my skin it becomes powdery, something that still doesn’t fully convince me. It has good trail and longevity. It’s very versatile, perfect for any casual occasion.

  5. I loved it! It’s soft yet persistent. It smells clean, not soapy. It evokes a woman in white in a garden of roses and jasmine under a clear blue sky. It’s exquisite! I asked several friends and they all want to give it to their partners. They adored it. Besides, it’s identical to Joy but 100 dollars cheaper.

  7. It’s a powdery floral with good presence but not overpowering; I couldn’t distinguish specific notes. It smells clean and elegant with a resinous base. Ideal for the office and has an incredible price. I see it as perfect for spring and early autumn. I’ve read it’s in the same line as Chanel Allure and Dior Joy, but since I haven’t tried them, I can’t comment. With good application, it has a nice trail and lasts 3-4 hours on skin. Scent 7/10, Longevity 6/10, Sillage 6.5/10, Value for money 9/10, Versatility 8/10, Packaging 6.5/10. Would I buy it again? Maybe.
