I wore this perfume when I was a high school student, and in my early college years. To me, it’s cold, musky, and green. I remember the bottle always being cold whenever I would touch it. It is a unique smell, and it definitely gives of an English perfume vibe. This is not a perfume that I miss, but the smell of this fragrance is stored in my memory.

I wore Feminine in my late teens and early 20s and was gutted when D&G discontinued it. It reminds me of late nights in London nightclubs and my then Beau who wore the delicious beast, D&G Masculine.
Feminine is an icy white floral that commands attention, finally drying down to a cool, dry musk. There is nothing else out there like it and I am so sad D&G stopped producing it.
Perfume Parlour do a fantastic dupe of it – almost identical, just a touch sweeter. I bought the rollerball, as although this wouldn’t be a go-to fragrance for me anymore, I love to have a sniff of it every now and then and go for a trip down sweet Memory Lane…

D&G feminine has been under my radar for a while.it’s notes look so promising and I knew it’s my last chances to buy it due to it’s discontinuation so I ordered a 100mil tester bottle(53$)
I can see why there is totally different,love/hate reviews for this one.it’s not safe for blindbuy unless you like perfumes such as Sarah jessica Parker lovely or Jennifer Lopez Glow which was the first things that came to my mind when I first sprayed D&G feminine but if you have a good skin for such cold and clean muskyflorals it appears as a seamlessly beautiful scent on you,very feminine and sensual in a soft,clean and alluring way.
it’s a very musky scent and it’s muskiness shows up from the first second.it has a cold,sharp aldehyde_musky-floral(mimosa and waterlily)scent in it’s opening which may be off putting for some people but has a refreshing cold purity which I like.aldehydes are easily detectable to my nose and it’s strange that it’s not mentioned as a note.it settles down to a more floral scent,jasmine,lily and wisteria bloom beautifully to create a soft and clean feminine floral scent.vanilla,cashmere and sandalwood ground muskyflorals and add it a very light touch of sweetness and make it drier.I can also detect a light nutty note which I relate to heliotrope or cashmere wood.I like all the stages of it’s development but it’s creamy-powdery drydown is my favorite which is a lovely blend of floral woody and musk notes
Like most discontinued fragrances,I see it as a wrong decision as it would be wearable in modern days and could be even a signature perfume for numerous people.It’s longlasting.sillage is big at first but it soon reduces to moderate.I see it as a spring,summer fragrance like most perfumes in this genre but however it’s cold,crisp and clean I guess it would be good even in fall or winter days
Feminine is my forth D&G perfume,first one being light blue which I gave it to my mom and second one was The one which I gave it to my sister,after these two unsuccessful experiences I faced more luck in my blindbuys,third one is pour femme which I love,now after my successful blindbuy,feminine,I’m eager to find and try Sicily and by as I think discontinued perfumes in this brand are more close to what I like
BemblileThall – :
I bought this perfume as soon as it was out and my God, wasn’t it ME!
I kept buying it until they discontinued it and even after, spending small fortunes to secure myself at least a bottle.
Simply wonderful fragrance. The first whiff one gets is that of mimosa, wisteria and heliotrope. Soon after cashmere wood, musk and sandalwood make their entrance. I noted this fragrance reacts best on slightly alkaline PH (i.e. cold skin type).
On me the sillage last a full day. I get always compliments when I wear it and needless to say this perfume truly deserves them.
The only one I ever loved of D&G, although I don’t mind their Light blue in small doses.
Lilianna – :
Why oh why did they discontinue this, it was beautiful. I loved wearing it during Winter months, such a comforting musk fragrance. Really sad that it’s not available anymore 🙁
olegusman – :
I wore this in the beginning of millennium when it was new. Alongside with the wonderful Yohji this always collected compliments. Feminine has that super soapy vibe that either attracts och abhors. I find it enchanting. The strange thing is that I wear this better in the wintertime. All my other lovely soapy aldehydes I prefer in the summer. But then again, this in not aldehyde.
Heliotrope and mimosa give it an initial sweetness, but in the end it is more or less about musk. I remember the first time I smelled Feminine, I really found it different from all the perfume of the time. Also I had been wearing heavy stuff like By from the same house, and Jungle Elephant. This was a different category and I embraced it. I recommend checking this out if you ever cross paths. It smells like anything else. I just sprayed it on to get in the mood and I do adore it even though I rarely wear it.
nikitka95 – :
The fragrance shop. Makes all kinds of perfumes that have been discontinued , they mix what ever perfume u want.. they have this also on file already …but it is in oil form …It is as close as close can be. A bit pricey but if u love this like I love it….They have a few choices in sizes. This company have thousands Apon thousands of oldies and new stuff they make just about everything. And if they don’t u can request it
Pavel Aleksandrovich – :
Montblanc Legend Spirit is so similar to this one!
okzhetpes – :
The best of all: delicate, fresh, chic and super sensual. I love it so much. Too bad that it has been discontinued.
bogdanoleg – :
This is an odd one. It is indeed ‘feminine’ for sure, and well suited to Spring days and floaty dresses. It’s initially sharp (but so are many fragrances) then morphs into flowery, then dries down to rather a generic fragrance that’s nothing to write home about.
Its main characteristic is that on me it’s all about the sillage rather than the skin scent. From a distance Feminine is quite fresh and interesting; on the skin, not so pleasant. So I’d suggest it’s great for a garden party, but not ideal on its own for a date where you’re hoping for some action 😉
It can work quite well, though, partnered with a sweet fragrance such as Alien Essence Absolue, which adds vanilla sweetness to the skin and complements Feminine’s slightly sharp flowery-freshness.
Overall I give this one 6/10. No harm done, but perhaps not worth keeping.

13.03.15 – I bought this perfume for the first time in about 2003 from a Superdrug store for £10, I desperately needed new perfume for a night out (as you do) and I didnt even smell it in the shop.. I got home and opened it and LOVED it! I wore it every day until it ran out. I had totally forgotten about this perfume until a few weeks ago when the memory of this purchase popped into my brain. So I thought, ‘oh i’ll go buy that again’ (you poor fool I hear you say!) I couldnt remember the name of it. I think back then, it didnt really have a name it was just called D&G or D&G original and was later called feminine…. OMG I’m so gutted that you cant buy it anymore. But I did some reading and frantic research and decided to try an alternative perfume which apparently smells similar. I purchased Kenzo Flowers (again from superdrug, for £12) and when I sprayed it on my skin, I wasnt convinced it smelt anything like Feminine (however it has been 12yrs since I smelt D&G) But as Kenzo flowers settled down I was quite pleased with it. So if you are looking for an alternative perfume and cant quite bring yourself to spend £300 on a dodgy bottle of D&G from Ebay.. then maybe try Kenzo Flowers instead ;D ( I cant belive I used to own this perfume and I never bought another bottle! FOOL)
vivern2011 – :
I was dreaming about this perfume ever since Britney Spears mentioned it in one of her interviews; it was her signature scent (along with CSP Vanille Apricot), and she said that Justin was crazy about it, too. Hehe. Well back then my teenage self could not afford it and later it was impossible to find in the country of my origin, and later it got discontinued. Or so I thought. I found it in a fancy drugstore in NYC where I now live (NYC, not the pharmacy). The lady owner explained that this perfume is still being produced just not for the mass market. Anyhow, I bought 100ml of it on the spot even thought there was no tester and I could not try it. Brought it home, opened it and yup here it is just the way I remembered it. The problem is I have changed. As much as I love the scent I cannot wear it on myself – a bit too much of everything for me. You see, I have accumulated over 60 perfumes over the years (don’t judge it just happened) and am extremely sensitive to scents and these days I don’t like my morning perfume to last for days (this is the case with Feminine and yes, I am weird like that). So here I am stuck with a 100ml bottle of this clean and classy goodness.
Gamesfdfreeadg – :
This one has a beautiful powdery 70’s vibe and I regret that I didn’t purchase it when it was still around…
neenlymidepet – :
Another strong classic.
First notes are sharp citrus and wood. This gives way to a soapy, musky, soft but not too powdery floral. This is less powdery than Rive Gauche, but is in the same class of powerful vintage classical scents. As with all power houses, less is more…such depth to these oldies. Very clean, fresh sharpness to this one.
dezmond12 – :
I am only now getting around to testing D&G Feminine, despite having been sent a generous-sized decant by a generous perfumista quite some time ago. Fortunately, the juice is still in good shape, so now I understand why so many people are complaining about the discontinuation of the perfume.
At the same time, other reviewers revile the scent! I find it clean and musky and floral and a bit soapy. Some people have observed the compatibility of Feminine with Nivea cream, and I do not disagree. In fact, this composition reminds me a bit of one of the Bvlgari Mon Jasmin perfumes (hmmm… was it the original or one of the flankers–I’ve lost track, there are so many!).
Upon application, my first impression was that this could be the signature scent of a cougar–that’s right: une femme d’un certain âge (comme moi!). It smells sophisticated and sexy–think Catherine Deneuve. This is a type of scent which is less common in recent launches, which seem to be much sweeter on average. Feminine dates from 1999, before the tsunami of abstract fruity-florals, and its discontinuation is an example of how fashions cycle also in perfume.
Eventually, people are going to be sick of all of the cloying sweet gourmand stuff, and this sort of perfume will come back into vogue. Until then, cherish what remains of your old bottles of these turn-of-the-century perfumes!
GOLD-X – :
I adore this perfume and I’m so upset it has now been discontinued. I looked on Amazon but it is so expensive. Up to £250. Does anyone know any perfume that comes close to the smell of this?
ARTEMIY – :
Juicy pear, that comes and goes.
Baby oil.
Vanilla here and there, especially in the base.
Musk.
Lily.
AMAZING.
Clean but musky, sweet but not.
HINT: poor man’s Un Lys. Their drydowns are almost identical, on me.
Yoko – :
Beautiful and powdery but stays on you very briefly.
Edit 2016# I just bought it on ebay and will get back with an update as soon as it arrives!
urmatik – :
Yet another of my favourites to be discontinued. I love this and anything that smells remotely close. It reminds me of my favourite childhood sweets!
grieroaugmece – :
I was a bit previous posting my last post about jovans white musk being like feminine. It does smell very similar to start with, but changes and fades very quickly. However all is not lost. You can still get this in the USA!! My cousin, who lives in Albany New York. Is sending me a bottle! 100ml for $50 (about £35!!) I also located a bottle on amazon for £220 for 100 ml. 3 guesses which one I’m going for!! Lol
UNSETEMUME – :
I have been wearing Feminine since it came out and was devastated when it was discontinued. I don’t want to be ripped off in eBay or Amazon as they are charging up words of £180 for 100 ml of dolce and gabbana Feminine, so Reading here that Jovan White Musk was similar, I bought a bottle online, it cost less than £10 and although not exactly like the original, it is so near to it, you would never know. I am so glad I came across this site with the information and white musk, I urge anyone out there who loves feminine and misses it as much as I do to buy Jovan White Musk! You will not be disappointed.
LANGER – :
Blue Lady—> 43 is Young!!!
I think this perfume goes for anyone, it is very innofensive and soft. But I do realize that some sweet perfumes become too sickly sweet and bothersome as your nose gets more sophisticated 😛
B3PbIB – :
I was finally able to get my hands on this. Soooo excited I love the way it’s smells on me. It’s a sexy,musky, powdery scent. I’m impartial though this scent reminds me of some good times in my life.
avetys – :
I think it’s awful, like an old lady smell with bitter citrus and powder, altough I like the powdery and musky fragrances this is horrible or I tested from an old and rotten bottle, I don’t know…
yuriy61182 – :
This was a favorite of mine. I was sad to see it discontinued and would love to find a replacement. it was the kind of scent you just wanted to wear. It was just like your favorite shirt or pair of jeans that made you feel just right. A soft, beautiful floral that wasn’t overly sweet,with a slightly musky/ cashmere dry down that just screamed feminine….hence the name. My all time fav D&G fragrance.
Smeappypleara – :
This was my signature fragrance for many years. I am disappointed it has been discontinued. It had a dry out of a beautiful and soft florals.
Many people would ask me about the fragrance I was wearing .
It was subtle and not overpowering .
Aerohoplenerijsf – :
The epitome of baby powder. not to strong,last long.
onise – :
I wore this through my last year of secondary school. A guy working at a perfume store I often visited took a liking to me and gave me a brand new tester marked 50ml bottle of this for free 🙂 Being (at the time) a fruity-floral or citrus fan I was unsure of this fragrance but it ended up being my go-to signature fragrance, and I felt naked without it. I have to thank this fragrance cos it helped me step out of my very small comfort zone of typical teen-girlish fragrances and be a little more courageous. The strongest note on my skin undoubtedly was lillies, followed with wood, then citrus, it was refreshing with a demure and elegant edge. It is a very clean smell and I would describe it as sharp, it doesn’t mellow a lot in it’s dry down- it remains rich lillies just with an ever so slight fluffiness. It is the kind of fragrance that stays with you, and your clothes, and on your bed sheets; it clings and keeps up with you, always ready to pick you up. This perfume I guarantee if not found pleasant at first, continues to grow on the user by each day.
jhz963Bessinepome – :
I don’t think it is about people’s ages… I think it is about feeling comfortable wearing a perfume and loving it. We all should be able to wear whatever we want as long as we are not invading other people’s space.
If you like it, wear it. I usually wear my perfumes for my self and my hubby (sometimes just for myself :)). If we both like it then the job is done. I think anybody can wear this wonderful scent.
ruslan745 – :
Very sweet, but not sickeningly so. The epitome of baby powder. I always maintain if you love a fragrance that much, to disregard whether it is too old or young, but I really did feel at 43, too old to wear it!
kost-005 – :
I have used this for over 15 years now and was devastated whe it was discontinued. Can anyone recommend a similar fragrance to replace it?
kissyou – :
My twinsister had it ten years ago, at that time I hated it. Untill two months ago, when I was looking for a new signature scent. I remembered the fresh and sexy smell of Feminine and can’t get it out of my head now! Does someone still owns the bottle and wants to sell it to me? I would be greatfull!
sycbvyzqivg – :
My signature fragrance, my favorite perfume of all time. I’m heartbroken to learn it’s discontinued and may stock up on some over-priced bottles while I still can.
This, to me, is what a woman should smell like. Clean, but sexy. Soft and powdery but modern and chic. Floral but not sweet and sickening, musky but not manly. It smells like white musk and baby powder and lilies but all of them so gently. The sillage is polite and sexy, the longevity is great, the whole thing is SO SO SO feminine. I adore mimosa and cyclamen and lily of the valley and this is the only perfume that combines them with musk.
Sometimes I’ll catch a whiff of this on an article of my clothing and I’ll just inhale and savor it. After over a decade of wearing it! I love it so.
vo1an – :
Love this…beautiful and soft. Great for work/school. Lasts 6-7 hours and sillage is not too big.
dim4ikhot – :
Great one …my definition of chic…
burudulka – :
Hello lailafeder1. No this perfume is discontinued. I think the male version is discontinued also. I just happen to still have some left. I just get so annoyed at the bottle that I long ’til I’ve used it all up. The leaking of the fluid when spraying and the cap is loose and can’t be fastened like it should. I don’t know what they did when they produced these bottles, but they did something wrong. Even if it still existed and I like the scent, I wouldn’t buy another one due to the bottle.
suschee – :
Does that Perfume still exists??My bottle ended and now i’m sad cause I can only find on e-bay or amazon for such expensive prices=(
aleksejlee – :
I like the smell alot, flowery and mild in its scent, not overpowering at all. I can not wear it when I’m in school, ’cause my teacher is allergic to some of the flowers in this scent. But I don’t like that teacher, so maybe I shall wear it the next time I see him, just for fun. There’s only one drawback with this fine perfume: the bottle. The spray “thingy” loosens so easily so I have to attach it, plus the perfume leaks from the spray “thingy” when it gets pushed down. Does anyone else have this problem? I had the same problem with the bottle of D&G Masculine, which I also had before(I would say it’s more of a unisex than masculine fragrance).
SaxolokT – :
I received this as a gift some years ago. It was a huge bottle. Once a year I spray it to see if my tatses have changed, I want to like it. And it’s such a shame to have it just sitting in my closet. But, nope, still smells of cheap baby powder and elderly people on me. I’m sure it’s gorgeous on others. Anyone wanting it, message me, and I’ll send you the bottle.
Hernmeamymn – :
I used to own this one. Feminine isn’t bad at all, but with my chemistry it smells like just a white floral. I’m not a big fan of white florals.
I find I like this one better when layered on top of my Light Blue.
This is a very long lasting scent with great sillage. If you like this one you would probably like Jessica McClintock, Versace Vanitas or other white florals.
I wouldn’t purchase this again as me and white florals never hit it off. I still appreciate this on others.
hpq336JeomiWogkig – :
Soft, lotion-like creamy with some of the best luscious florals. Drydown – I’m speechless, very da best! Clean soft musk:)
Safe close to the skin scent with moderate silage.
shato – :
truly beautiful and different.stays with you all day long…warm and quiet,soft,lingering around even when you can’t smell it anymore.and then someone will ask you what perfume you’re wearing…amazing!it is made for true romantics and women that appreciate balance,small words and big deeds.
kuzj80 – :
Feminine is a sweeter powdery scent of TBS white musk oil. I love Feminine but there is thi harshness in the opening causing my nose allergies.
A very pretty scent though i dont reach out for often but definately may fav lily scent. For ref i have tried SL’s Un Lys and Cartier Basier Voile but because Feminine reminds me of TBS white musk (HG), is why i prefer this to other lily based florals.
serega59 – :
Age: 24
Skin: normal-oily. Medium brown.
Preferences: Fruity, vanilla, watery, sweet, citrus (Will update)
Perfume nose: amateur
best season spring and autumn
day/night day
the age of the woman who wears it 24-45
the persona of the woman who wears it: intriguing, kind, mature, sophisticated modest, warm err feminine =p
Quite a big gap for age but what i love about this is femininity can be at any age and this proves it! This woman speaks with her eyes, speaks only when she has to. Not an overly glamourous woman but her chosen style is soft, floaty feminine and warm. A woman who can look sexy riding on a bike from the 40’s with a basket in the front.
I bought this as a blind buy, when i first opened it i was like >=[ then i sprayed it on me then i was like =o IMO it is beautiful it smells classic. it is a musk ideal for younger women as the jasmine is present in the top notes and then it soften downs into a powdery musk. i can admit throughout trying it i was like is it? is it? phew! is it? is it? phew! because on a certain person this could be a disaster! this could possibly smell like toilet freshener. This is the type of perfume that chooses you! It is the powder along with the musk and light hint of florals that make this come together so beautifully. its quiet and loud at the same time.
Hello from new zealand!

Fartesq – :
There was a lady I saw on a train. Her scent was soft music to me. She smelled like creamy heliotrope was growing from her hair. Her lips sang sweet vanilla. I asked her what was this scent her skin was breathing,
“Feminine” she said to me.
I did not forget this perfume. Alas,I did not know where Dolce & Gabbana stood on being cruelty free. Nor could I afford them.
I found what was right for me…
A kindred spirit selling this vegan imitation,and I had enough money in my pockets to afford it. It smells just like the real Gabbana…..
In my mind the dear and gentle lady on the train is next to me,and drinking her tea,smiling warmly. She is sharing a piece of her heart,and her great taste with the world. How lucky we all were. I truly mean it.
OrdetryFata – :
nice and soft and fresh!makes me feel clean on a hot day!
just a soft skin perfume that you wear when you want to be cute and cuddely not for fierce woman i guess?But i love it it is a classic for me.
dmitrii666 – :
Too musky. Sometimes it smelled like horse’s sweat and other horse products. I gave it away to my mother in law.
yjg383InsuffBooni – :
I love Dolce Gabbana’s Feminine. The best perfume I ever had! So soft, feminine och powdery. Simply the best! Since it is discontiued I’m trying to find another fragrance that is as beatiful as this one. If anyone knows a perfume similar to this one, please let me know! 🙂
Upsefssholf – :
As a somewhat reluctant sucker for musk, due to the scratchy olfactive soundtrack of my misspent youth screeching in the background with over applied White Musk Oil from The Body Shop, I find myself falling for D&G Feminine EDT despite its similarity to the aforementioned culprit!
How can this be? I’ve spent most of my adult life running away from anything (human or otherwise) remotely resembling that TBS trademark signature.
Could it be, adorned in a light spritz of D&G Feminine, I feel young and carefree again? Has enough water finally flowed under the bridge for me to have matured enough to smile fondly at my pubescent self?
I dunno! What I do know though is I am thoroughly enjoying smelling this good. Feminine is pretty and girly and clean.
No heavy syrupy residue weighing you down in this “white musk”, only pristine petals carried on a buoyant breeze.
massta – :
I used to love to wear this in summer back in the early noughties. Got a lot of compliments from men too. Now it makes me sneeze and I find the smell annoying somehow, not sure why as I don’t think the composition has changed, just my taste for some strange reason.
valerian-1969 – :
I love this in winter, sprayed across a soft scarf… there’s something really comforting about it. I’m on to my 2nd bottle. Not an every day thing fragrance for my tastes, but perfect in the cooler months!
realg4ever – :
My grandmother owned a bottle of this. (For younger people thinking about buying this I must say that she likes to wear pretty young fragrances, just finished a bottle of Burberry Brit Sheer.)
It smelled very nice on her. She liked it a lot and would have bought again but they don’t sell it in here anymore.
The scent is feminine and floral but not heavy and won’t offend anyone. Good for everyday use.
denyka – :
i still own a 100ml of this from the early millenium… today i decided to try it again after all those years it was hidden in my storage.
it has a very intriguing smell, unusual for nowdays and somehow addictive… hmmm… the intro is quite fresh and unisex. but then the precious flowers are developping. the aroma of a sweet and fragile heliotrope, which i love so much in fragrances is coming up to my nose accompagned by an intense smell of wisteria and ylang-ylang. truly nice and feminine on this stage. then the white petals of lily and orangeblossom are fading in nicely powdery and i can feel also the musk introducing very seductively. the base is woody warm and still powdery, sweetened up with a hint of vanilla.
all in all a very clean and subtle sexy scent, not offending or overhelming, with a nice sillage floating arround you for a good while, lasting power is very good on me! perfect for officewear.
happy to still own it as it is hard to find and discontinued.
vfil – :
I bought a set with shower gel, moisturizing and the perfume unsniffed. OMG!!!! When I tried the perfume only got the woodsy-powdery-synthetic smell that made me sick and gave me headache. Gave the complete set to a friend who appreciated it a lot.
valya0806 – :
kanoodle7 said it all for me – if I had a signature scent this would probably be it. How typical that it it is to be discontinued 🙁
Proxi888 – :
i love its just uniqe soft and frech
dretImmeday – :
The only fault that I find with this featherweight, adorable, lovely floral is that it fleets from my skin very fast. It smells to me like a diluted Nivea cream in a classic blue tin, and I`ve been looking for a perfume to match the scent of Nivea for years. It is not a scent that will get you noticed or will make you feel seductive…I would not even call it a comfort scent.It is more like a second skin, clean, pampered and healthy.To me Feminine is a keeper, though I don`t wear it very often. I keep wishing it will hold on me a bit longer everytime I use it!
asya – :
I find this loud and offensive. I kept on sniffing it to see if it was going to get any better. After about 6 hours it did wear down to a more likeable amber smell but, not worth putting up with 6 hours of shrill for 1/2 an hour of smooth amber. I know now that my body doesn’t like white floral, nor woodsy/musk, so it didnt’ have much chance with me.
Atmoddege – :
It is a truly feminine perfume, and very sexy too. I bought it a few years ago, and it seemed to be the perfect happy, floral scent for an intense spring. But after a few weeks it ended up on the bottom shelf, because it was too strong for me. Maybe it didn’t suit my personality, it rather suited the person I wanted to be… but I wasn’t. 🙂 For those who like strong scents, it is the perfect date perfume, romantic and sexy.
shepabass – :
Unusual indeed but on my skin lasts only for max 2 hours and i can’t get used to the smell at all i’m afraid.
I originally bought it after reading reviews which sounded incredibly good.
I was a little bit dissapointed. Oh well…
ара – :
I first bought this in Florence, Italy and it conjures up great memories for me. It’s a nice, light floral for daytime wear. It must react very differently with one’s chemistry – I was surprised at the number of reviewers who can’t wear it!
darfkill – :
Nice, smells like baby powder on me
shera – :
On me it smells exactly like nivea cream,
the original blue one.
holoch – :
I LOVE ‘By’ and actually find this something of a By ‘Light’. I’ve never owned it as I have always had a bottle of ‘By’ but as it’s sadly gone I might indulge in some of this and hope for a similar feel. Clean and musky
HooliGun93 – :
My cousin wears this and it smells great on her. I’m determined to add this to my collection.
Szasi – :
I Had a sample of this for almost a decade in my drawer.I think with me goes like :i try a sample, like it,hide it.Then use it time to time and when it becomes rare ,i decide to find a bottle of it.I think happens to me with D&G mostly.It was for By like this.
Anyway, this perfume is clean, fresh and musky sweet.At first mimosa and water-lily give their freshness.Florals begin to grow after a while.Mostly jasmine,lily and cyclamen ,i do not get any ylang-ylang.
The dry-down is fabulous!!!So musky sweet:they are cashmere woods ,vanilla and sandalwood.The lasting power is very good.I can use it for day or night,summer or winter.Fantastic!!!!!
P.S>It has the purity and softeness of Sicily,the sweetness of The One and the smell of jasmine as in Light Blue.
Poorianak – :
I liked the musky undertones. One of my favorite classics.

I most I smell is the musk. I love the fragrance. Fresh and clean at first, but when the base comes in I can smell the musk. Since my mother in law uses it, it reminds me of her. I dont’t use it anymore!

i like this one very much!!but my boyfriend doesnt=[which make me soo sad …now …i just leave it there

Clean, soft, and unusual. I have to comment on a review though.. lol If it’s cheap and smells like old ladies, why did you give it to your 9 year old? That doesn’t make sense. I think it’s pretty, and much better than the average (and popular) fruity floral perfumes being sold. You can smell the mimosa and heliotrope in it. Since it’s not an average scent that’s why I bought it. For an EDT the lasting power is really good. I get compliments, and that’s a good sign. It goes well with my chemistry, but like any perfume it should be tested before buying it. I don’t get any powder on my skin at all… because I can’t stand powdery scents. I cannot wear Chanel No 5 for that reason. You’re probably smelling the mimosa and heliotrope… which can remind people of powder sometimes. On me I just get the true scent of the flowers. These reviews shouldn’t keep you away or make you buy a perfume though, any perfume should be tested before buying it. 😉

Very odd smelling perfume to me. White flowers with an antiseptic/medicine mixture. The first 15 mins after spraying it on the smell is sickening. About an hour later the medicine smell fades and I smell mostly flowers….although strange smelling flowers….it lasts for hours and hours which is the only nice thing I can say about it. I bought this without testing it first and am really kicking myself about now. Total let down.

Feminine is charismatic and unique with an alluring edge. It is a fine blend of creamy-floral-light-musky scent, pretty, sweet, poised and very sexy.
It opens with heady mimosa: some oddly aged and damp kind of mimosa, which could be quite overwhelming for the first 15 minuts. Then it smoothes down to a creamy bou
