    Very good, soft and tender, ideal for mild or warm climates. Perfect for the office or enclosed spaces. It’s floral and creamy; not for those looking for something opulent, but rather subtle and romantic. Lasts between 8 and 12 hours.

    Very pretty, light, fresh, ideal for day or summer, though I’ve also worn it in cooler seasons and it worked well. “Feminine and charming” is what people always say. Light, moderate longevity. Very pleasant if you like light, youthful, and feminine fragrances. I’m thinking of buying it again. To me, it smells like those little candies sold in Argentina called *Yapa*.

    A super rich and fresh fragrance that I loved. It’s lighter than the Classique and can be worn year-round. I thought its softness meant it wouldn’t last long, but quite the opposite, it lasts over 12 hours.

    The word that came to mind when I smelled it was ‘sexy’. I know not everyone thinks the same, but that’s how I perceive it: very seductive, energizing, slightly powdery, and potent. One day a guy approached, took a deep sniff, and told me, ‘You smell sexy’. It’s citrusy, but for some strange reason I only wear it in winter. I love everything: its trail, its notes, and above all how it makes me feel. I love its power to change my mood in seconds; instantly I feel feminine and confident.

    “SEXY” was the first thing I thought when I smelled it. I know not everyone agrees, but for me, it’s very seductive, energizing, slightly powdery, and potent. One day a guy approached me, took a deep sniff, and said: You smell Sexy!!! 😉 It’s citrusy, but for some reason I only wear it in winter. I love everything: the trail, the notes, but mostly how it makes me feel. It changes my mood in seconds; I feel feminine and confident instantly.

    This perfume and I fell in love at first sight. It’s very fresh, citrusy, smells like orange and orange blossom, a bit oily and sweet. Lasts more than 12 hours and I like to wear it in summer.

  10. Another favorite of Gaultier Classique X: it’s fresh, floral, and when it dries down it’s soapy and quite neat. I use it mostly in summer, it has great longevity, and it makes you feel like you just stepped out of the shower, of course very feminine.
