Nothing Special
- nice enough scent - pleasant and inoffensive - good for daytime spring and summer wear - the basil opening is irritating - dried down quickly on my skin and stayed close to the skin for a few hours - not a good value for the money - doesn't make enough of a statement
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend to a friend.

Masculine
This scent is suprisingly masculine. It's not bad a as such, but at least on my skin this smells like a male perfume (I had to check this was really for women). Even I like clean, neutral scents this may be too much over the edge.
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend to a friend.

I Like!
I only ordered a sample because I whiffed someone as she passed by and asked her what it was. It was soo exquisite, the scent captivated me. I hoped it would have the same effect on me, but did not want to order the full size. The sample did not disappoint and I too have received many compliments. I will be treating myself to the full size soon.
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

WANT TO STAND OUT IN A CROWD?
If you want to wear something that not everyone else is wearing, buy this! WOW, is all I can say! So many people have complimented me, and have asked what I'm wearing, and where is it sold. Since I only purchase from FragranceX, I'm sure they will be having many requests for this fragrance. Unusual, and very unique fragrance...you won't be disappointed!
Bottom Line
Yes, I would recommend to a friend.
