      We had a long discussion about the notes the other day, in case you missed it:

          It sounds a little like a smoothie in the beginning. I haven’t really liked anything with blueberry like Mure et Musc, though I know many people love that one and it has many imitators like philosophy’s unconditional love. I like the bottle and I still need to order something from my friend’s kid so he will stop inundating me with catalogues.

          I’m with you, Mals86. When I see “frozen” anything listed as a scent element in a perfume, I think Fla-Vor-Ice or Otter Pops– artificial and loaded with dye.

    The notes sound more interesting than the average celeb perfume and I don’t hate the bottle. I know, the juice matters most… but I am a sucker for cute bottles. And I like purple. ;)

    Take out the “frozen blackberry” (?), starfruit, and the passion flower and you might have had me. Black leather, saffron and vetiver sound good, though.

    I fear the “frozen blackberry” note reminds me chillingly (no pun intended) of the “chilled blackberry Martini accord” (or some such) in DKNY Delicious Night. It was the very first perfume I sampled after my interest in perfume kicked in, and damn near stopped it in its tracks!

    It sounds as though it will pack a punch, however it smells!

    I could understand that there are some fragrances with blackberry notes, and some are brilliant such as Mure et Musc. But I could swear I have NEVER seen a frozen blackberry note.

    At first I thought this might be Kim Kardashian II. But now I’m not so sure.

    Spoken or unspoken, this is truly horrible. I guess it is not only cheap but somehow meant to be cheap…. Does it make any sense ? I don’t know, but this is what it signals- I am a girl without any money and this is the only thing I can buy…But it’s signed by Fergie !!! This apart, it is sweet and atrocious, like a fake Amarige meant to kill everybody around. I got a sample in a Hello magazine and tried it once because I couldn’t bear to sniff it a second time….
