    Like the other Beckham fragrances, it smells good but fades quickly; for the price it’s decent, though don’t expect miracles.

    I bought this and I’m very pleased; it smells sweet and is perfect for daytime wear. They say it surprises experts: being an aroma sold at Walmart, it compares favourably to designer perfumes costing three times as much. It starts citrusy but evolves into a delicious sweet fruit scent. I bought it blind and it didn’t disappoint; I highly recommend it.
