It lives up to its price point. The trail isn’t enormous, but I can smell it all day as I move or run my hands through my hair, which is what matters. It smells fresh, feminine and clean, very well balanced. It’s not unforgettable, but ideal for work: noticeable when someone approaches without being intrusive indoors. I confirm it doesn’t evolve; the scent of the spray is what remains on the skin. I bought it as an alternative to Aqua di Gioia and I’m satisfied.

If you love aquatic florals with a subtle citrus touch, this is your perfect ally. Apply it generously on clothes to make it last longer and project better. Its projection is moderate and intimate, discreet and elegant. It’s clean, fresh and aquatic, with a charming simplicity ideal for hot days. It doesn’t bother; instead, it refreshes and accompanies without imposing.

Undoubtedly it’s a refreshing and pleasant citrus scent, but it lasts barely two hours. The longevity isn’t good; it drops by 50% after an hour and after two hours it’s barely noticeable. I wouldn’t buy it again; I don’t recommend it.

This perfume reminded me of Moschino Fresh Pink; does anyone else find a similarity between the two?

Sparkling raspberries; I love it despite the projection and longevity not being exemplary. It’s pleasant for daily wear, I think it’s more for summer or spring, but I use it in winter and it’s very good, a matter of taste. They told me and I read it’s citrusy, though I can’t highlight that note… it doesn’t evolve much but I find it good, very sweet and better than Her Secret Desire.

It smells like cheap perfume, like an air freshener.
Sofigm594
Rich fragrance. I detect quite a bit of raspberry and the aquatic notes. In my opinion it’s youthful, for someone aged 18 to 25. To use during the day in spring or summer, not at night.
fleur parfumée
It smells a bit of green tea with lots of lemon and sweetened with Stevia 🤣. It’s sweet, but not too much for me, as I hate very sweet and gourmand fragrances. The aquatic notes suit it very well. I like to wear it before bed, after a cool summer shower… I also recommend it for the day, for walking on holiday in white linen clothes, light. A relaxed and youthful fragrance, more not childish.

The scent gives me nausea. The citrus smells artificial. At first I liked it a lot, but after a while it becomes annoying. The smell is flat and doesn’t evolve; the defined notes aren’t perceived. Using it means smelling the same for six hours without any variation.
Alafi kisieko
It fades quickly on my skin, lasting barely an hour, but the scent is rich, aquatic and super refreshing.
Yass
I loved it; it’s the perfect blend of citrus and sweet. The longevity is moderate, around three hours, ideal for hot days. I’ve finished a bottle; although it’s cheap, I’ll wait for a sale before buying another. I want to make sure it’s always in my vanity.

I bought it based on reviews here and was disappointed. It smells nice but lasts only an hour on my skin. It’s strange because my pH isn’t bad; I feel I wasted money on something that doesn’t work for me and apparently doesn’t last for others either. I’ll stick with Avon Hinode and Natura, which last longer.

The opening notes are unbearable; nothing like Acqua di Gioia. It doesn’t actually smell bad once it dries down, but I have to wait ten minutes to feel that captivating aroma. I don’t think it’s worth the hype.
CookieCat
Change of heart: I loved it at first, but after a week I was fed up. It’s too tea and lemon; it bores me because it lacks any evolution. It smells good but I’d only use it to freshen up after a shower or before bed. I still prefer Blue Seduction Woman for summer.
Meleagrina80
The new Avon perfume from the Today, this Love 2021 line is very similar; they even share the same notes. The differences are subtle, but in both, the grapefruit dominates. I like both; they’re perfect for hot summers.
locadelosperfumes
I like it, although it doesn’t last too long. For the price, it’s excellent. It reminded me of Un Jardin sur le Nil by Hermès.
Marita20leysi
I liked it; it’s fresh and slightly sweet. I prefer it for late afternoon or evening in mild or cold weather. It lasts about six hours and projects well; I applied it in the car with a friend and we had to roll down the windows due to the massive trail for four hours. Then it fades, but it smells elegant.
Manu_speranza
It didn’t win me over, but it’s a rich fragrance, very floral and fresh, with no citrus notes (which I appreciate). It’s very feminine, elegant and summery. The trail and longevity are average. I’d give it a 7 out of 10.

Hello! I tried this fragrance today and found it familiar; I wasn’t sure if I was mistaken, so I asked my mum and she confirmed it’s similar to Elizabeth Arden’s Arden Beauty. What a coincidence. Personally, I do like it; it doesn’t have a huge trail but it’s a good fragrance. Best wishes!
Roxy7
Initially the trail is potent, then it mellows slightly but lasts around six hours depending on the weather. A soft scent that I absolutely adore.
Monsedoll85
My go-to for going out and special occasions: super feminine and refined. It’s one of the best I’ve tried. Being aquatic, it smells wonderful; people praise it and it lasts a long time on skin and clothes. Definitely the best in the Antonio Banderas line.
Micaocean
It’s aquatic as they say, but to me it feels like a cheap perfume that smells expensive. Comparing it to Acqua di Gioia, the new formula resembles the original more, and they dry down similarly, but this (Queen of Seduction) doesn’t last as long on my skin. Applying moisturiser beforehand helps; for some it lasts about four hours. The trail is noticeable for an hour, then fades. On clothes, it lasts all day. Ideal for summer; very fresh and rich. Brilliant for a hot afternoon or evening. It’s good and accessible, but test before buying blindly. By the way, Art de Natura is very similar to Queen’s dry-down, though not identical, and Queen has similarities with Armani Acqua di Gio.

I looked for this as an alternative to Acqua di Gioia before the reformulation (with the round cap) and was surprised by the similarity. It’s very aquatic and citrusy; not everyone likes that blend. The trail isn’t long; after a few hours it fades, and the longevity on clothes doesn’t match Armani’s, but given the price in Argentina, it’s more than a pass mark.
Mirarely
Potent with a good trail for its price. It’s rich but very strong for me, super citrusy. It settles in minutes and leaves an aquatic scent.
DulceInvierno
Nice aroma. I agree that it resembles Acqua di Gioia quite a bit when dry, but the opening reminds me of Elizabeth Arden’s Green Tea. I don’t sense much projection, or perhaps it’s just my nose, but I can still smell it intact on clothes. Excellent value for money. Highly recommended if you like fresh fragrances.
Eriimarisol
I love it; it was a gift from my boyfriend and he notices I’m wearing it every time. It has good longevity. It’s aquatic, floral with a soft, fruity sweet touch. I wear it during spring and summer. It’s a clean scent that stands out for its notes and trail, making it unique and different.
Rociata
I loved it; super fresh, citrusy with a sweet floral touch, very feminine and ideal for summer. I’d buy it again; I give it 10/10. I really liked its scent; highly recommended.
kat7
AMAZING! It’s a 10/10 with excellent value. Very good fixative and aroma… wow! Very delicate; you can tell it’s aquatic and floral in just the right measure. In the end, it feels slightly powdery, with that sparkling grapefruit/raspberry sweetness; I love it. I recommend it highly; I can’t stop smelling it; it fascinates me. Edit: Excellent in summer, very versatile for everyday wear. Feels aquatic and sweet at first, very rich.
Jannelsa
Citrusy and strong. I like it because citrus notes usually don’t last long, but this one lasts about six hours with an excellent trail. Then another four hours on the skin. Excellent value for money… better quality than the price suggests. Recommended for those who like Acqua di Gio, Tommy Girl, or similar fragrances.
