Snagged it at the ferry’s free shop on the way back from Cologne to Buenos Aires. It fit me like a glove, smells exactly like the original Quartz, super fresh, perfect for spring and summer, brings back great memories.

I picked it up at the duty-free shop on the ferry back from Cologne to Buenos Aires. I loved it because it reminded me of the original Quartz. It’s fresh, perfect for spring or summer, and brings back good memories.

I’ve been wearing it since I was 11, now I’m 26 and it’s my signature scent. I prefer it over many fragrances that smell stronger or last longer; it’s just mine.

Got it as a gift over ten years ago, and it’s one of the must-haves in my big collection. It has a lot of personality, if you can say that. I mostly wear it in summer and spring.

It’s pretty, light, and fresh, but there’s a note I can’t identify that makes me gag, almost nauseous or gives me a headache, kind of like Klaw. It ruins everything and I can’t use it. I’d love to know which ingredient causes that, since I’m used to heavier, oriental, or potent floral perfumes. It must be a specific floral component, as Guerlain’s Ydille does the same thing to me, though less so, and I avoid wearing both. Any ideas?

Wow, I know it’s delicious… but it gives me a headache. My husband gave it to me because he loves it, so I endure the pain and wear it so he doesn’t feel bad. If I have to say something, it’s very long-lasting; I wish the ones I actually like, like Daisy So Fresh by Marc Jacobs, lasted on my skin as long as this one.

Wow, smells delicious… but it gives me a headache. My husband got it for me because he loves it, so I endure the headache so he doesn’t feel bad. Yes, it lasts forever; I wish things like Marc Jacobs’ Daisy So Fresh could stay on my skin as long as this.

A fresh and floral fragrance, but with a lot of elegance. Anyone from 20 to 60 can wear it. It’s very feminine and made for spring, summer, or summer nights. Since it’s an EDT, it lasts several hours, making it one of my favorites for warm weather.

Smells very similar to Ágata Ruiz de la Prada’s Imagina.
