An inexpensive perfume that smells expensive!
Can’t get any better than that.
This smells beautiful, every note balances out so perfectly, I’ve fallen in love all over again.
I picked this up some time ago, paid 15 dollars for a 75ml.
It’s a scent you’d want to douse yourself in, it’s powdery it’s sweet it’s everything to me❤️
Lasts extremely well, unfortunately they don’t sell this here in Australia anymore.
I won’t stress as my bottle is still almost full 😉
Sillage: 2 hours.
Longevity: 6-7 hours.
raccoon – :
Intimately by Beckham is so romantic. Light pink is my colour description of the perfume and so the bottle fits perfectly with the scent.
The scent is soft and airy: it conjures images of falling softly into a bed of feathers with rose petals.
I can smell mostly rose out of the well blended florals with a bit of a green note, and it finishes into a powdery, musky, vanilla. It is very feminine. Sensual, yet clean and polite.
kislenkova – :
A lovely alternative to pure poison. I used to smell this and the other women’s fragrance by Beckham all the time it is disappointing that they’ve been discontinued as they sold very well here is Australia. This one is a softer more delicate pure poison, it had great staying powder as well. A solid like.
DAG05_rus – :
If you’ve ever wanted to wear Dior Pure Poison, but
a) couldn’t afford it
b) don’t actually have the guts to wear it
c) don’t want to hated by the millions who find it cloying and unbearable
…THEN THIS IS THE PERFUME FOR YOU.
Personally this is the greatest of the drugstore variety perfumes. It is feminine, floral and creamy yet clean.
Granted, it won’t last all day but no worries. This is one of the underrated perfumes out there but well worth getting.
vladvlad – :
A great cheapy, This was one of my very first perfumes that I purchased as a young teen. It was incredibly affordable at au$10 for 75ml!
Amazingly my 10yr old bottle of this remains comparable to comtempary and much more expensive white florals.
Ganzaq – :
Can’t believe ozonic isn’t listed here to me this is a perfect example of an ozonic fruity fresh scent. I wish I’d bought it when it was cheap in Sears its so hard to find now.
serg49 – :
Not half bad for a fragrance that cost my friend £10 from a discount store – rather like a cheap version of La Chasse Aux Papillons. Does well for those who need a clean, light, office scent. The light rose and tuberose are fresh and pretty and it has a clean white musk laundry-style drydown.
j88888 – :
A nice fresh floral scent. it smells a lot more expensive than it is!. But I notice it has a slightly more alcoholic smell than my other perfumes. i still recommend trying it
gipard64 – :
I honestly don’t get the hype about this perfume. Admittedly, it shares similarities Pure Poison, especially in the opening, but it’s much more linear and less complex. This perfume is all about white flowers, with tuberose being the most prominent by far. Don’t get me wrong, this is an OK perfume, but I just don’t find it to be amazing.
povezlo – :
I am so sad that Victoria has discontinued her fragrances at least in Australia. I have heard this is the case everywhere but noone else has commented it but just FYI. I prefer her signature scent but this is a nice musky classy fragrance akin to Dior Pure Poison.
Starnum – :
If Dior had come up with this and called it Paris Doux it would have been massive hit and a classic in the making. I’m sure Coty did well with it but like most celebrity fragrances it unfortunately had a limited lifespan and is already hard to get unless you are willing to pay inflated prices.
This really is a beautiful simple floral with a musky base that makes it just a bit unisex as well, if you’re the type of guy who doesn’t mind the pink bottle and girlie associations. I get no similiarities to Poison at all.
I came across a bargain bottle on eBay and snapped it up. Not being much of a Beckham fan I didn’t expect much and I was shocked at just how nice this is. It’s like the innocent little sister of SJP’s Lovely, so if you are a Lovely lover then I can’t see why you wouldn’t go for this as well. I also think that Victoria’s fragrances are going to become collector’s items. She did them when she wasn’t being heralded as a fashion influencer so I’m not surprised she has stopped doing perfumes for Coty and is now repositioning herself for higher fashion things – her recent makeup collaboration with Estee Lauder being an example.
If you see a bottle on some dusty bottom shelf grab it!
derdiok – :
There’s something about this little beauty. It’s longevity is truly impressive and the scent outstanding! However, (and this is the really weird part) when I bought a new bottle last year, it just turned sour on my skin. I lost my first bottle when I moved to London, which was really a pity. Furthermore this scent needs to be opened and minding it’s own business for a year or more and then! It is like my skin is finally accepting the true beauty of the scent. It’s fresh, romantic, not offensive and deserves a spot among my other fragrances like chanel and dior.

turns out that I like strong white flowers with spicy vibes or woody vibes
not this harmless clean white flowers

Intimately Beckham is my secret weapon
Wow, what a fragrance. I bought it the first time around since it was on sale and thought the box looked pretty. Such a well thought out buy.. Yet it ended up being one of my all-time favourite day scents. If they ever going to discontinue this, they’d better give a fair warning so I can stock up for the next decades. Beckham’s fragrances are not your average celebrity fragrances, but for me this one is definitely the best so far. When I wear it, random people compliment me and also my friends that have an expensive taste ask me what I am wearing. I never answer that question truthfully when it comes to this one. Intimately Beckham remains my little secret.
гимнастка – :
The tuberose is very present in this perfume, it has average sillage. I own a 30ml bottle which I bought a few years back, its not so bad at all. Predominantly flowery flowery and very girly scent. Perfect for summer.
gsy807JeomiWogkig – :
I do not have much to say on this fragrance. The notes are fairly accurate (minus the rose, I can’t detect it at all) but unfortunately I find it to be rather synthetic smelling which is then difficult to even like it.
I feel it had good potential overall but it is lacking in complexity along with the synthetic feel, it is nothing special I’m sad to say.
It is one that went into my “sold off” category when I did have much higher hopes for it. 🙁
ivano – :
Blind bought this at TJ Maxx as it has been recommended to me several times on the forum, based on my tastes. At first spray, it smelled like a sweet hair spray my mom used to use, and I loved it! But then it immediately developed a note I can’t stand (chemical that doesn’t work on me?). It’s a hard, sour note that overtakes everything else, although every now and then I get a whiff of that initial sweet, pretty scent. Sure enough, the same thing happened with JdP In White. I’d love to smell it on someone else, because I’m pretty sure that weird note wouldn’t be there. I think I would have loved this!
lexashaxter – :
I really disliked this. It reminded me of something my grandmother would wear. It was too floral but not a nice floral. Then again I have never liked tuberose. It wasn’t modern enough for me. But a co-worker of mine, an older woman absolutely adored it so I gave it to her.
Menvd037bedyWelty – :
This is femininity in a bottle. What a surprisingly beautiful perfume! I bought this on sale as a blind buy at Priceline, so it was even cheaper than normal, and wow! I was so taken aback by the sophisticated scent that came out of the beautiful bottle, and even my mum was chocked to find it was a Beckham perfume. It’s a lovely floral-musk combination, but the tuberose and bergamot are my favourite ingredients and really make this a special perfume. It certainly is animalic and is at once deep and delicate. And I have to say both the sillage ad longevity are more than substantial; I can smell the perfume as I’m walking around during the day, and I can smell it on my clothes long after I sprayed it. Definitely great value for money and a lovely scent.
avalera – :
Definitely a high end fragrance without the high price.
For an eau de toilette this is beautiful!
It’s musky & floral, not too sweet nor over powering, just perfect.
2 spritz, and you’re good to go.
Longevity: 6 hours.
bigsheff – :
Such a beautiful perfume for the low price. I used to work for Christian Dior and knew Pure Poison very well – Intimately Beckham is a dead ringer and lasts a good while too. You could happily straight out lie about what you were wearing because they are so similar 🙂
Like Pure Poison, Intimately Beckham is ‘perfumey’ in a French and feminine way.
sxsh2008 – :
Intimately Beckham by David & Victoria Beckham was a delightful find for a soapy white floral lover like myself! I love that this smells so fresh and feminine! I think the lime adds a very nice citrus twist the fragrance. I originally bought Intimately Beckham Night and did not like the myrrh, but wanted to find a Beckham fragrance that I could enjoy so I thought I would give this a try and am so glad that I did!
znerg – :
This is a dupe for original Gloria Vanderbilt Vanderbilt. I test sprayed it today and I was whisked back to a childhood vacation to Dallas many many years ago where my older cool cousin wore GVV. Of course I then wore it the entire stay also. So to me this is a vintage scent. Wasn’t at all what I was expecting. It smelled great as Vanderbilt way back then, it smells great as Intimately today.
vte934speagoessenda – :
I was expecting something sexy sultry and seductive with the name intimate on it but it’s a lovely soft fragrance of white flowers and vanilla. That doesn’t mean it’s not sexy because it can be. It smells really nice and it’s more of a “come hither” subtle sort of sexiness not a va-va-va-voom sexiness. It becomes a your skin but better scent that sticks close to the skin like wearing a light fabric made of sheer fabrics like tulle or lace. It opens freshly with citrus and then becomes a purely white floral scent. I could pick up on the tuberose and lily. The tuberose gives it that classic elegance and sophistication. It smells very formal like to wear on a romantic date for the evening. The scent lasts for an incredibly long time. I smelled it all day the other day and went to bed with it. It’s not very fussy or strong as a white floral scent so don’t worry about it if you’ve experience those super heavy white floral fragrances before. This is very subtle and sweet. The vanilla note is keeping this thing together and gives it longevity, sweetness and a deliciousness. It’s really such a beautiful fragrance. Feminine, romantic, elegant and classy. I get tons of compliments on it.
eugeny.rumyantzeff – :
Got this as a present twice now, and I must say it really is growing on me. Everytime I wear it I like it more. It feels soft, powdery and classical. Great for daytime workwear or a nice date. Bottle makes it look 10x more expensive which is nice! Can spray liberally due to the low price. Longevity is ok, sillage not so much. Overall a pleasant scent perfect for those times you feel a bit more soft, girly and unassuming.
oneneptmemi – :
Bought this blind, but there must have been something wrong with it, perhaps stored in the wrong overheated temperature. It was a total stinker. I tried to give it to our daughter but the same thing happened on her. It ended up in the bin.
FagimNui – :
So clean,sweet and delicious, what a gem for the price! To me it is very similar to Crabtree and Evelyn’s Summerhill, but lighter and not sickly. The lasting power is great. Just makes me feel happy and wrapped with floral sweetness, but with an ethereal tang. Classy tank, looks expensive. The vanilla is subtle and blends perfectly with the fresh rose and lily. I don’t get much sandalwood but no ones perfect… Last two bottles I gave away to others who fell in love with it on me! I am waiting for it to come on sale again so I can bathe in this wonderful uplifting fragrance again.
timisfate – :
I love only the first minute of this with the lotus. After that initial blast,the lotus and orange blossom completely died on my skin and i am immediately taken back to Truly Lace and Longing by Coty circa 88′. To me, this is a sharp powdery musk with a touch of rose.
I imagine this would be cute on women with fair skin and baby fine hair.
undertaker87 – :
Now, truth be told, I don’t like posh spice. Never did. Because she’s pouting all the time, never smiling. BUT, who cares? However, the nose behind this perfume did a great job. I adore this perfume. It’s so beautiful and feminine. And it’s got depth. And the longevity and sillage are amazing considering the tiny price. Yes, it’s pretty similar to Pure Poison. So, hats off Beckhams. You only had to add your signature to it, others did the hard work lol! Highly recommend this. Just lovely, so it is…x
Dresevoickres – :
In my collection are a few inoffensive florals, nice fragrances that can be worn to work or on occasions when I don’t want my perfume to stand out. Of these Intimately Beckham wins hands down. I wish I had discovered it sooner. The only reason I even tried it was because of the comparisons to Pure Poison on Fragrantica. Oh for a cheap Pure Poison dupe! But I don’t think it’s a dupe at all. Sure it has those similar cool florals but PP has an icy citric note that is not replicated in IB. Nevertheless Intimately Beckham is quite simply gorgeous.
POLIURITAN – :
I am just recovering from a bout of vertigo and can’t cope with the heavy in your face fragrance I normally go for. I have had this fragrance for over a year now,stuffed at the back of my collection drawer.Tried this because every else made me gag. Gosh this is lovely. Light,clean, floral ,very powdery and modern but I could imagine Bridget Bardot smelling like this in a bygone era walking through Paris in late summer. It’s a keeper for me,a classic scent in my opinion.vertigo or not !
petrow-zahar – :
I’m new to the perfume world – and I am as uncomplicated as can be. My go to fragrance is just lavender oil. Heavy perfume gives me headache. I like to share my scent only with the people I allow to be in my personal space. That’s my profile.
I was hesitant to buy Intimately Beckham at first because it’s a pink and floral scent. And ROSE! I hated roses!
But I took the leap, and it’s a wonderful leap that gives me the courage to buy more perfume (none that I like as much as this one)! I don’t spray too much; a small spritz on the wrists, and quickly dab the wrists to my neck and behind my ears.
Intimately started off strong floral for me, but not enough to give me a head ache. And then it settles into a very pleasant floral/powdery smell that I can’t help but sniff myself each time my nose comes into contact with my wrists.
This morning, I walked by a coworker’s desk and saw her lift her head to sniff again and again, trying to find the elusive scent and was puzzled when she couldn’t find it again. It makes me feel good knowing that I make her happy, too, whenever I pass by her desk.
Intimately Beckham is beautiful, elegant, warm and uncomplicated. It makes me want to put on a tutu and just twirl. Pure happiness. I’m making this my fall scent.
BeCool – :
I’ve looked at this for some time now but hesitated on purchasing because of rose being one of the notes. I’m not a huge fan of that particular scent, but I spotted the only bottle on the shelf at my local Ross, and I caved. I have to say that the rose is not in-your-face strong, thankfully. It’s a mildly sweet scent that smells incredibly feminine and light. There is a bit of a powder element to it, but I think it adds a nice touch, as does the the musk and sandalwood. I don’t find that it has a specific type of citrus to it, but more of a nondescript blend of citrus, no main notes of orange, lemon, etc. To me, when I want to think of a “pink” scent that isn’t cavity-inducing sugary, this would come to mind. It smells like falling into a fluffy pink cloud, minus the candy.
I am very happy that I purchased this!
Caceenhandy – :
I read somewhere that this perfume is quite similar to Allure, found that hard to believe , since that is my favourite , so I had to try it myself. I was so surprised that a $20 perfume could be so amazingly similar , and yes , on me anyway, it is Allure and lasts , going on 10 hours and I can still smell it , and still going strong.
888van888 – :
SIMPLE FLORAL
I really enjoy this perfume as it is clean, light and delicate. A very feminine day time fragrance and probably my favourite celebrity scent!
I really connect this scent to work or professional occasions because one of my colleagues used to wear it in the office. I feel really put together in the mornings once I get ready and finish off my outfit with a spritz of Intimately Beckham.
If you are looking for something reasonably priced and for the everyday, definitely try this one!
yokiorg – :
I first got a whiff of this beauty at Target, years ago. Found it at Ross and bought a 1.7 oz bottle. Wow. It’s a creaminess of white flowers as the vanilla, musk, and sandalwood melds nicely with tuberose and lillies, with a hint of gardenia. It’s fabulous for Fall and Winter or a cooler time of the day. It evokes feminism and beauty as this fragrance makes you feel special. It will be a sad day when I can’t purchase this again.
Forgot to mention, it lasts a long time on my skin and longer on my clothes. Yummy!!!
drontm96 – :
I blind bought this more or less, it was after a colleague at work mentioned her perfume was a Beckham scent. Not so sure if it was this one or not, but I went ahead & bought it anyway as it was so cheap.
It has surprised me, it has a beautiful white floral smell, but dries down to a mixture of floral and aquatics, although it doesn’t mention any aquatic notes, I can smell it & I do love that fresh water element to it.
kastakis – :
Good Grief this is good! I smell lilies!!!!! It is like you are in a garden of lilies!!!! So very romantic and beautiful!!!!!!!

Tasteful Tuberose
reethyacaxylzjxi – :
Very very nice white flowers ,long lasting good perfume I like it a lot
fitchew – :
A light white floral offering — it’s not too strong at least compared with Pure Poison. It’s somewhat similar but the floral notes are more muddled here so although its similar in character it doesn’t really replace Pure Poison. It unfortunately becomes “generic floral” very quickly instead of accentuating the character of each flower, they all sort of run together. The musk is quite strong in the dry down. Lasts about 4 hours, middling sillage. Good for work or formal daytime events.
666blade666 – :
Too tuberose-y for me. Not in the good MK way either. It’s a strong yellow flowers smell for me with a sandalwood dry down. Wanted to like this for the price but returned it :/
net062JeomiWogkig – :
Smells very fresh and floral. If you like smelling like flowers this is a very nice scent at s very affordable price. I dislike the ugly, cheap looking bottle
Sokol2012 – :
I bought this for my teenage daughter as an inexpensive treat recently and was surprised by how lovely it is. She has around 15 different perfumes and none of them appeal to me, except this one. Every time I admire her perfume she says it’s the Beckham one you got me. It smells light and airy and floral, but not in your face floral, makes me want to lean in closer and take a deep breath. Which really is the point of wearing perfume after all. Well done Mr & Mrs Beckham, beautiful fragrances at budget prices.
Veronika-Yan – :
On me, this EDT has rather impressive longevity. I normally don’t do pure florals – I like some spice in my scents. But, I often like to start my morning with them before later jumping up to my usual orientals. As many have remarked, this is a classy scent that deserves it’s place next to my designer fragrances.
vtt775speagoessenda – :
Beautiful powdery floral—it would be awesome if it actually had longevity. It’s not surprising it doesn’t last as it is a cheap perfume and most cheap perfumes don’t last.
jhf759elipseskism – :
I was curious as to how this perfume smells so I bought a 30ml bottle online.I must say that I am rather impressed.
For an edt,longevity is good – 3 to 4 hours.
For a celebrity’s perfume,the smell is also unique – different from the other sweet gourmand celebrity’s perfumes.I have Fantasy and Midnight Fantasy…too sweet and young for my liking.But Intimately Beckham is feminine and very classy.
Of course,it doesn’t hold up to my all time favourite Elie Saab Le Parfum.But for a celebrity’s perfume,it is very well made.
For the meagre price that I paid,blind buy is a success.
Mikem – :
Second review: This scent is so beautiful, but the longevity is a disaster. No matter how often I reapply, it stays close to the skin and within one and half an hour is gone! I tried to boost the longevity via body lotion, but without success 🙁
Radek95 – :
This perfume absolutely fits its name – it’s soft and sensual and it makes me feel so feminine. For me this is another tuberose love. I like the rose in the composition and I may choose Intimately for my signature.
Kasperka – :
I have changed my mind about this scent. I didn’t appreciate it at first because it was too weak for my tastes and couldn’t find any similarity with Pure Poison.
Now I discovered it again and I must admit it’s a very well done scent, yes it’s not powerful but it’s a lovely, delicate and feminine white floral and I can get the resemblance with Pure Poison.
I’m not fond of celebrity scents, too similar, linear and boring, the only ones that I actually love are Madonna Truth or Dare (gorgeous!), Tease (a young, fruity tuberose/jasmine) and this one.
If you love sweet and feminine white floral fragrances, try it.
ANNAAttetryStem – :
This one is a blind buy for me, too. I am extremely happy! This is some DELICIOUS juice! When I spritz it on, I immediately get a heady dose of white flowers, rose, and tuberose. (I am one of those people who actually LOVE tuberose.) The initial group of flowers last for a while and then a light lily joins the party. My nose never detects the orange blossom and not much bergamot either. It takes quite a while on my skin for the base notes to warm up. When they do, I’m not getting much. No sandalwood to speak of and only a faint musk and vanilla. That for me is the one disappointment about the whole blend: my skin eats the base notes and with most fragrances, at least on my skin, the base notes are what really has the staying power. I don’t find this scent lasts very long on my skin. (Sadness) Otherwise, it just couldn’t be better. Highly recommended if you actually like tuberose like me!
ynt1973 – :
Update: whew! This has rather strong sillage. I put some on my neck and wrists and one spray on my t shirt and my mom said I’d put too much on! It’s been around 5 hours and I can still smell it distinctively on my wrist so quality fragrance. Just use lightly.
сталкер82 – :
I bought this on sale at a drug store after giving the bottle a sniff (and not actually trying it on my skin). Had I done so, I would have immediately been repulsed by the first twinge of my fragrance arch-nemesis: tuberose.
I often do blind buys, and in my try-on experience of days past, tuberose is the one element that smells syrupy-sweet, headache-inducing, and vile to me. It reminds me of an old lady smothered in Elizabeth Taylor’s ‘White Diamonds’ -dated, stuffy, cloying and over the top.
Having said all of that, I got the scent home and tried it on, and LOVED it. Who knew?! The other musky, floral and sweet elements in this scent dilute the tuberose component down to something quite soft, lovely and palatable. I’m very pleasantly surprised!
Considering this is a celebrity/drug store scent, it’s quite refined and well composed. I’ve learned to overlook the association with tuberose AND Victoria Beckham, and continue to enjoy this scent quite a bit. 🙂
disal – :
I spritzed this on my neck at a local Pharmacy before seeing a guy, and when he hugged me he exclaimed “wow you smell really good! You have really good taste” and needless to say I bought this on amazon on my way home. £8 for 75ml and it’s arriving Saturday, very pleased it’s similar to PP as I love that one but it is expensive. Men seem to like this scent ladies!
trott1982 – :
I am not a fan of the Beckams, but this perfume is lovely. Green tuberose, bouquet of white flowers and hint of musk. The sillage is soft, but I don’t mind it. Great feminine fragrance for spring.
Falmioninyham – :
this came in a joblot (purchased, as joblot contained madame rochas EDP for my mum). Have sold all the other bottles…but i kept this, as it’s surprisingly nice.
i love white flowers. smells a bit like expensive hairspray…and there’s a kind of synthetic thing going on throughout. but it still is worth keeping.
try it, you will be surprised. it doesn’t have great sillage or massive longevity, but it is dirt cheap i see. £10 a bottle.
and if this smells like pure poison, then i might have to get some pure poison…..
EDIT – was there any need to use themselves mid-fondle in the advertising? arrrggghhhh. i personally don’t want to be thinking about David touching Victoria’s bum while i’m wearing their perfume.
Oh…just tried PP…they are very very similar! this one is a bit sweeter, less musky and long-lasting – but it is still very nice.
greggy-ko – :
Blind buy….very pleased. I can see the comparison to White Musk Libertine. This is very light and soft on me. Nothing strong or in your face about it.I may try their other scents as well. Not bad at all. 🙂
AKVKlim – :
Lush rose petals, then musk & vanilla, slight sandalwood with tuberose and white flowers- the musky undertone lasts throughout. A lovely, cheery floral. Lasts 6-7 hrs. with nice sillage. The bottle is beautiful. For the price, a very desirable fragrance. Does remind me a little of Coco Mademoiselle, though not as divine or as long lasting- maybe like a baby sister (I haven’t tried Pure Poison, so cannot compare). It’s grown to be my mom’s favourite and I like it more everytime I wear it..
qweflkglsdxvph – :
I think this one is the best among Victoria’s fragrances so far. The composition is pretty and elegant. I was surprised by this perfume and its quality. Definitely not a typical “celebrity scent”. I can’t call it mature – it is definitely not, but it is a well-made perfume. Some “fragrantionistas” mentioned that the scent reminds them of a washing powder or detergent. Not for me. I’m enjoying this scent very much and would recommend it to the friends. Office friendly, but apply with a light hand.
крауз – :
Yes when i wear this i think of Pure Possion Doir
it’s a good deal if you want something like that but have not the money for Dior 😉 i like it
Elena050184 – :
I bought this blind, as I couldn’t resist the price!! but I was intially not too impressed and put it aside… However, as I later discovered… this really is a *superb frangance*.
The intial spray is harsh, sweet and instrigent but when allowed to settle for 15 minutes, I was rewarded with a warm, soft, musky-rose that has remarkable sillage and longevity. Is not overpowering or intrusive.
I get a slightly sweet sandlewood aroma when I inhale directly close to the skin.
This beautiful fragrance is everything the bottle presents itself as… Classy, elegant, feminine and romantic. Quite safe in my opinion for any occasion and could be worn by any age.
Not soapy at all.
bkk913Bessinepome – :
So I have seen this being compared to Coco Mademoiselle, Truth or Dare and Pure Poison, among others.
I have not tried Pure Poison yet but I do own Coco Mademoiselle in Pure Parfum form (owned the EDP in the past) as well as Truth or Dare and I do not see a real resemblance. Ok, they both have a rose note, but Coco Mademoiselle is more of a citrus-rose-patchouli combo, where as Intimately Beckham is rose surrounded by white flowers and vanilla. Coco Mad is stronger, and zestier, while this perfume really is soft and intimate, like its name. Truth or Dare has the tuberose and white florals in common, but without that lush gardenia or delicious gourmand benzoin-ambery dry down.
Maybe Coco Mademoiselle and Truth or Dare decided to become lovers for one night. Coco’s rose and bergamot seduces Truth or Dare’s lily, tuberose and white flowers. The sweet vanilla and milky sandlewood shimmers in the air, that essence of a sweet clandestine night. Intimately Beckham could be their afterglow.
I agree with a reviewer who said it was not the best smell when freshly sprayed. A bit plastic/synthetic-y in my opinion, but as soon as its settled down a bit you get this gorgeous creamy floral bouquet. If you like elegantly done white floral/vanilla/rose scents that smell lovely without being too overpowering (don’t be scared of by the tuberose note, its very soft here and well blended) you will probably like this.
Word of caution: I needed 3 sprays on one wrist just to be able to write this review! This really is a soft skin scent (it is a lovely celebrity EDT, but in terms of longevity and silliage it is still a celebrity EDT). You honestly can’t overspray this. I am a habitual under-sprayer, so the first two times I came across this tester and only sprayed it once, it had totally faded to oblivion by the time I walked back to my flat 🙁 (15-20 min walk from the chemist). Luckily, this time I sprayed generously enough to review!
Elegant, pretty, decently priced. This is pretty but I do prefer that zestiness of Coco Mad, and the lush flowery-gourmand vibe of Truth or Dare, and I already have enough vanilla based comfort scents, so I don’t think I need this for my collection . But that doesn’t mean it won’t be perfect for some one else’s. ^_^
It just doesn’t have that “pop” for me.
5.5/10
corytrarkab – :
This is classified as a white floral but I hardly get those at all. To the contrary, I get a beautiful sweet creamy citrus blast upon first spritz.
On me, this is really gorgeous. Skin scent yes but oh what a scent it is! I get a little bit of rose but that creamy citrus softens down to a lovely spring perfume that matches perfectly with these new warm temps in the month of March.
Intimately will not get you noticed in a crowd. This is something I would wear during “special” moments with my hubby.
I think this would layer nicely with Christina Aguilera’s signature scent – they both have generic sweetness that brings a smile to my gourmand-loving, sweet tooth face. 🙂
Florya – :
I blind bought this scent due to great reviews, and it has tought me to be more careful. I really dont get the rave about this scent, of all my perfumes this is my least favorite It does not smell bad or anything like that, but it just boring and generic to my nose. There are other celebrity scents out there that are far better then this one, sorry but this is not for me.

More adult, I agree its similar to Pure Poison. Stronger as well and not at all expensive, compare to the real thing I payed about £10 for 75 ml. Wow…my mum would love this, surprisingly I do too…I blind bought it due to the price. What a nice surprise, well done Victoria. You have convinced me that something that would not normally be your cup of tea is actually nice and worth trying. For an EDT is very strong and long lasting. Definitely worth more than £10. I’m rather impressed with this little gem.

@The Swedish girl, that’s just so stupid and immature. Grow up!

I am finding it hard to review this one. It smells strongly of rose, tuberose, and something synthetic. I don’t hate it, but not sure if I can fully say I like it either. I almost think if sweeter notes were added, this perfume would be more well rounded and less likely to teeter on causing headaches.
For the price of $20 at TJ Maxx, I’m not regretting that I bought it blindly, but surely would not repurchase.
Also, the bottle is really pretty but not travel friendly. It’s like lugging a big awkward paperweight.
