    Over the years, this perfume has become my absolute favorite. It’s gorgeous, sophisticated, spicy yet sweet. At first, it didn’t grab me, but I quickly grew to love it. It definitely stands out and catches attention by being different from others. I agree it reminds me of Burberry Her, but it leans much warmer and spicier; for the price, it’s perfect as a daily signature scent (just note: not for summer or in enclosed spaces).

    The best dupe of Burberry Her for $20, with superior longevity. I tested both (one spray on each wrist), and Glossy won by a lot. The only difference is that Burberry Her is a bit more fruity, while this is sweeter, but otherwise they’re identical, with much better staying power. Don’t spend money on the other; this beats it blindfolded.

    It has excellent longevity, and since there wasn’t much info, I bought it blind. It doesn’t resemble Idole at all, contrary to what I read elsewhere! I find it about 90% similar to Burberry Her, and the price-to-quality ratio is fantastic.

  4. I bought it blind. I saw reviews mentioning a floral vibe like Idole, which matches the listed notes, but honestly, it’s not. It’s a dense, heavy scent with a big sillage, floral and earthy due to excessive patchouli, spicy, with a strange metallic note that I don’t like and which I think defines it… that burnt sugar sweetness with a plastic note I’ve smelled in several perfumes (none of which I liked) that claim to be dupes of Bacarat Rouge (never the original, but all share common notes with Glossy). If that’s your thing, buy it blind because it’s ridiculously cheap ($11-18) considering how long-lasting it is, and it comes in nice packaging. The fact that I don’t like it is just a matter of taste; it’s not a bad smell at all. I gifted it to my mother, and she absolutely loves it.
