About the Product

Guerlain Samsara perfume first hit the market in 1989. A rich, sensual amber floral fragrance for women with a strong woody undertone of sandalwood, Samsara is an opulent perfume that has excellent longevity and performs well in formal settings.

Fragrance Family:

Amber, woody, floral

Scent Type:

Powdery, warm, sandalwood, iris, lightly spicy, sweet, rich, opulent, dark

Notes:

As Guerlain Samsara perfume unfolds, the first wave of fragrance is bright, bitter, green and slightly spicy, achieved by top notes of bergamot, lemon, peach, green notes and ylang-ylang. Creamy and animalic jasmine shines at the heart of the perfume alongside powdery iris, rose, cool violet and narcissus. In the base, sandalwood is the star, slightly sweet and aromatic. Vanilla, tonka bean, amber and musk wrap around the other scent notes like a warm hug.

Suggested Use

For long-lasting fragrance that you can carry throughout the day and to minimize the need for reapplying, focus on your pulse points behind your ears, at the base of your neck and on your wrists as well as warmer areas of the body, such as behind the knees and inside the elbow. These are the best places to apply your fragrance since the scent intensifies by the warmth of your body.

Update on my previous review....

I loved this fragrance when I first purchased it, but it's one of those scents that the more you wear it, the more you have to keep wearing it! Never before have I received so many compliments on any fragrance (especially from men!!), and every single person I work with has commented that Samsara

is "my" fragrance. I have since quit wearing everything else and only feel like "Becky" when I wear Samsara. It makes me feel refined, sophisticated, and desirable. Hey, if a fragrance can make me feel like that, I am sold for life! I absolutely adore it!!

Scam.

I recived the alleged samsara perfume that was ordered only for it to be in a different bottle with different packaging. I was suspicious already.! So I tried it yes it was like samsara. But within 15 minutes all smell had totally dissapeared. Bottom line. Not even a good copy.

Oh My

I love this Scent. It just does it for me. From the moment it launched, I was SOLD. The scent has since been reformulated, and I still love it. The difference to me, is "longevity ". The original, I could spray in the morning and still smell it when I got off from work. The revised formula smells the same but last about 4-5 hours. You will need a touch up, and why not, we do what it takes, right? This scent is worth the extra spray(s), and with the price point, we can now do just that, IT IS WORTH IT! You can read the reviews, I recommend that just try it, go with a small amount, you will see, my review, speaks only the truth! If you love a more of a sensual type, you won't go wrong with this fragrance. Tried and true, I 100% recommend this fragrance.

Bottom Line

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

I have bought this scent again and again

My wife has made Samsara her signature scent for special occasions, meals out, etc. ever since I bought it for her in Paris on a business trip. After perhaps twenty years, she still won't even consider any other scent; when she runs out, my shopping for her next birthday, Christmas, or whatever, is clear and simple! She gets compliments on it EVERY time she wears it, which delights both of us. (I love Samsara too.) I just wish FragranceX carried the perfume, powder, etc. as well as the cologne.

Bottom Line

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

Not the same Samsara as years ago. They show the red bottle in the advertisement, however, you will receive a bottle that is different and so is the perfume. False advertising. They do not make the Samsara of years back, unfortunately.

I would buy this perfume again and again I LOVE IT!!!!

I used this years ago as a young mum, my husband travelled and would bring home the duty free perfumes, I was so lucky I was able to try many, in different circumstances I would not have had the Chance. So Samsara has good memories for me. (For me it has a mix of spice and floral aromas, not heavy or sickly and the best bit is that can last with you for the whole day. I am so pleased to have been able to purchase from you and will by again. One very satisfied customer. Christina Christie I have always enjoyed my perfumes, like my mother and now my daughter and son of course he uses after shave just like his father

Scammed

I paid for an unboxed red bottle Samsara (as pictured) at a price lower than the boxed bee bottle item, and expected to receive what I was presented with and having paid for. Upon receiving, I was surprised to see a "boxed" item which turned out to be a bee bottle. Being in a consumer business, how can the company be this dishonest? I had placed another order for an unboxed Paris edt only to be notified later that it had been removed due to "item not in good condition". Why put it in your inventory in the first place? Please get your process right.

No, I would not recommend to a friend.

Beautiful scent

I was looking for a sophisticated sandalwood fragrance. After eyeing this scent for months (even the tester is pretty expensive), I finally went ahead and ordered the tester. It's beautiful. I want to bathe in it lol. It's sweet but not overwhelming. The dry-down is amazing- powdery and sandalwood-y. Will buy this again.
