Vince Camuto Femme

My first blind buy. It was on sale and could not pass it up. The first time I smelled it all I could smell was a musk peppery note and I hated it! I put it away and it stayed there for a while. A few months went by and I decided to give it another try. I was still skeptical because it is super strong when I first put it on but then it calms down and it has this gorgeous citrusy smell. Super fresh. It has some peppery that makes it more mature. This is my go to in the summer months.

I received a sample of this. I smelled the citrus right away and then vetiver. If you like an femme fragrance this probably won't float your boat. The vetiver makes it darkish and masculine, I smell a flash of iris but it is soon overwhelmed by the vetiver. To me this dries down almost right away. I doubt I would wear it. Update: I received it as a gift and wore it a few times to see if I could learn to like it......surprisingly I love it!!!! After wearing it several times I can smell the femme thing they were going for in it. Very classic and not in your face sweet femme. It could have more longevity and the top notes could last longer. It is very office safe.

I picked this up at a bargain price, largely thanks to reviews here that compared it to Chance and Coco Mademoiselle. On me it does smell like it could be a Chance flanker more than the latter for some reason, which surprised me a bit. It will scratch that very occasional itch I get for a bright, fresh scent since it's actually a little hard for me to find citrus notes that don't vanish too fast on my skin. It'll definitely suit me well in steamier months and at this price I won't feel silly keeping it in my wardrobe. I just could not talk myself into paying for Chanel prices for a scent I won't wear very often. I also think the right man could wear this well and may ask my love to give it a test drive. He wears all of these notes really well, so it will be fun to see which of us this is better on.

I bought this last week from Macy's and it is gorgeous. It kind of reminds me of Flash by Jimmy Choo, but better in my opinion. It has a certain spiciness to it but the drydown is smooth. Love it!

I don't think this is masculine at all. Smells very feminine and clean. Very fresh smelling upon first spraying, the top notes remind me of a zesty and invigorating fine milled soap. As far as the heart notes, I do not detect any florals, it goes straight to the woodsy dry down on me. I get the vetiver and a slight musk, but no patchouli. I love the top notes, but the bottom notes is what reels me in and makes me swoon. It's just that clean, woodsy, earthy, green smell. In some ways, it reminds me of Versace Versense in the dry down. If you like scents with that wood/earthy vibe, you'll like this one.
