Most Helpful Positive Review Gardenia sunshine I am a woman who is very particular about my scents. I normally can only handle citrus or similar fruit smells. Even some fruity smells are too pungent to me. To me even d&g light blue is even too strong. So I tend to shy away from the designers as such luxury labeled parfumes as they tend to be the most floral or strong and they either give me a headache or make me nauseous. I received this as a sample initially and was amazingly shocked at how this smelled. It reminds me of a gardenia mixed with the sun and some greens with a hint of wood. I can smell toast from across the house so if it were too strong I wouldn't recommend but I really like this. Five stars if it were cheaper.
Most Helpful Critical Review Lush Green I would call this a green citrus type of scent. It has a warmth to it also. You can immediately pick out green notes. But they're not the harsh type that end up just smelling very bitter. This one is a lot more mild. The more it settles the stronger it seems to get but it doesn't get overwhelming. It really does remind you of being in a warm wet lush green forest. It's slightly floral but more woody. It's both pretty and somewhat masculine. It's not my favorite type of scent but I don't dislike it.

This perfume is beautiful for someone who loves citrus. It projects a lot but wayyy too citrusy and on my skin citrus turn sour.... not my fav. Ended up returning.

Lovely, subtle fragrance. Smells softly like a Caribbean beach.
Sunscreen Mixed with Grandmas Gardenias 1
MissyNYC from NYC
Starts off as a strong smell of sunscreen then the cloying, old fashioned scent of gardenias hits you. If you slathered your grandma in sunscreen and sat her in a funeral parlor full of flowers….this would describe your exact scent experience. Thankfully I just received a sample rollerball as a gift with purchase. It's a hard Nope for me.
smells EXACTLY like sunscreen but with a pretty finish 3
Jean from oregon
I made my SO smell it and he agreed that it smells just like copper tone upon first spray. It has a nice warm floral finish though. I wouldn't spend that much on this when I could just buy and wear sunscreen and get a similar effect. smells good tho (I love the smell of sunscreen)

Beach vacation in a bottle 5

I love this scent. It reminds me of the beach and tropical vacations. It is unique and has amazing staying power. I can still smell it on my at the end of the day!
Not for me 2
Kandi from Ky
I'm giving this 2 stars versus one because it's staying power is amazing for an Eau de toilette. Like that's impressive. The smell is atrocious though. If you want to smell like copper tone sunscreen from your time as a child in the 90's all day long, then by all means sis this is for you lol.
I don't get sweet, or gourmand, maybe floral…maybe. Mostly sunscreen
(I like sweet, vanilla, jasmine, caramel, gourmand scents for reference)
A No For Me 1
MN23 from Chicago
This smelled awful on me. There's a specific ingredient in this perfume that I've come across in other perfumes that just does not work with my body chemistry. Will definitely be returning. Didn't work for me, might work for you.
Smells like summer 5
KMG from Chattanooga, TN
This smells like Banana Boat sunscreen, but more sophisticated and expensive. My fiancé usually hates all perfume, but he loves this one
TF 5
KM from PHX
Just purchased so this is a fresh review. I would describe this scent as a floral (gardenia) summer scent. It smells sweet with just a pinch of salt which is where I think the "beach" reviews come in. I do pick up just a small whiff of lemon, not sure if I can really detect any hints of coconut but it does give off vacation vibes. Feet in the sand, tropical drink in hand. I bought the 0.34 fl oz to test if I want to commit to the bigger bottle. I think testing it out in store would be the best bet if you're undecided.

Just okay, very strong. I prefer 'Repilca- Beach Walk' bottle is beautiful though.
Absolutely gorgeous 5
Stay2401 from Connecticut
This is a beautiful sophisticated fresh and floral/warm summer fragrance. When I first spray it to my skin you get the freshness of the lemon but the scent of the coconut is what lingers throughout the day. It is not an artificial sunscreen smell but it will take you to the salty shore. I love it and is my signature through the warm summer months.
Decent 2
AK from Miami
This smells exactly like many other frags on the market. I own this & KS live colorfully & they smell identical. They're dupes for one another. The TF is an EDT so it doesn't last long or project at all. It's a very basic scent. Excessively overpriced for the quality given. It smells like sunscreen, not even a nice suntan lotion, just bland sunscreen. With so many cheaper options available that last longer & project further I can't recommend this juice.
Disappointed I would NOT buy this product again. 3
CaramelCandy from New Jersey
