By Invitation by Michael Buble

I bought it on Irasema’s recommendation and I loved it: it’s a very elegant sweetness of delicious vanilla-infused red fruits. The dry-down is powdery and hits the three Bs: good, beautiful, and cheap; it smells expensive.

I bought it blind and need to wear it more to get the full picture. It turned out very strong, though I do like potent scents. There’s one note that screams at me and I can’t place it; it overwhelms me, clashes, and turns me off. It reminds me of Rihanna’s Rebelde, but I prefer hers. The longevity and sillage are top-notch.

It settles woody on me, and although those aren’t usually my thing, I tolerate it well because of the sweetness. It feels similar to Marc Jacobs’ Decadence. Ideal for cool climates and for those who enjoy sweet and woody scents. I don’t see any resemblance to La Nuit de Tresor or Vida Es Bella.

It’s a cheap perfume that smells expensive, but watch out: it’s not for everyone. To me, it’s cloying and enveloping; I like it, but I have to apply it moderately or it gives me a headache for the people around me. It’s for night and elegant special occasions. I apply it at least an hour before going out so others don’t notice it as much.

What a cool perfume. It’s super sweet and fruity, elegant but with lots of energy, without being cloying. The sweetness reminds me of Lancôme’s Nuit Tresor, but as it dries down on the skin in the last hours, it smells a bit like Armaf’s Club de Nuit Intense. It has luxurious sillage and longevity, over 8 hours. I want it forever, even though it’s hard to find in Mexico.

It smells good at first, but on my skin it fades in less than half an hour. I threw it away because I couldn’t stand that cheap musk smell it leaves behind. I don’t want to smell like this anymore.

A delight, very elegant, and you can tell it develops beautifully on the skin; it’s a pleasure. It’s formal and youthful at the same time; you can smell the flowers and delicious vanilla. It has sillage and stands out. On my skin it’s sweet but not overdone, not annoying. It’s good for warm days, but not extreme heat because it’s potent. A top purchase.

Spectacular fragrance. I bought it because I’ve always loved reading Irasema’s reviews. And what a delight it is. It’s sweet, imposing, and different. I feel it’s sophisticated, with berries and praline. It has a floral touch that comes and goes, very subtle and not annoying, since I’m not a floral person. The sillage and longevity are spectacular. If you want to try something delicious that isn’t everywhere, give it a try.

I’m into intense and sweet perfumes, but I have mixed opinions on this one. Now that I have a sample: I’m surprised by the quality, intensity, and longevity of a singer’s fragrance. It’s good for cold days, but be careful. If you overdo it, you give a headache to others or yourself. Phew, for me it’s too heavy. Being intense is fine, but not this heavy. I wouldn’t wear it; it’s too sweet and creamy. I’d rate the quality 7.5-8, and I quite like the bottle too.
