E1982A – :
This is one of my first perfumes. I always thought it smelled like mandarin so I am surprised by the actual notes.
Once I used it all up I bought the orange-colored Date perfume named Alexandra since it was a cheap knock-off. Sadly they discontinued that one ages ago.
loveboy – :
Scarlett X, this the first scent I bought myself, and my signature for some years afterwards. I gave it up around 1998 because of the really poor sillage and moderate staying power. It was very much a skin scent. I gave it another try today after 20 years, because I feel like adding a very fruity scent to my wardrobe. And I can tell you, that detergent like top wasn’t there 20 years ago! I’m now at 5 hours wear, and NOW, it does start remind of what I bought 20 years ago.
So, I guess they changed the formula and added something that comes up as very chemival to enhance sillage and staying power. It’s a pity, since this is still a really stunning scent!
vovavova9 – :
I have seen it around a lot, so I finally decided to give it a try.
It smells very basic at the beginning, something like some detergent would smell like.
The base is rather interesting though, so weirdly watery, light fruity and almost airy somehow.
There’s is something unique about it, that’s probably why it has been around so long.
So it is quite interesting, but the scent is weird enough, that I wouldn’t want to actually wear it.
At least not many times.
It’s an interesting mix of watermelon, peach, freesia, lily of the valley and green notes. I would recommend to give it a try.
rasul55 – :
Laura is er echt een van het type parfums dat je wenst voor iedereen dat ze deze hebben
lampard010 – :
I think it’s one the worlds best perfumes, it’s my favourite, and I love it very much.
xaker – :
“Laura” ranks as one of my all-time favorite perfumes.
I’m always stunned when I see negative reviews of this fragrance, as it’s one of the most inoffensive and lovable perfumes I have ever come across.
I first smelled Laura on a friend about 2 years after it came out in ’94 and was so taken by the fragrance, that it didn’t take long for me to get my own 100 ml flanker.
Laura is one of the few perfumes that will *always* be a repeat purchase for me. I am very comfortable with wearing this fragrance (and respraying it) around people who are sensitive to perfumes. It always receives compliments.
Back in the 90s, I was not familiar with the lychee note, just because I never owned fragrances which had this note. I only discovered what it really smells like in a lotion I bought this year. I don’t particularly care for it in the lotion, but absolutely love how it’s blended with other notes in this fragrance.
Lychee and watermelon are the top notes in Laura, with freesia, violet, and iris in the middle notes. I have come to love freesia and iris after smelling them in two other fragrances I purchased this year.
Laura is soft, floral, has an aquatic element to it, and is just so clean and beautiful.
Unlike others who have commented, I do not have any fragrance in my arsenal that reminds me of this scent. It holds its own, is memorable for me, and will always be the one fragrance I reach for any time of the year.
I spray this on my pulse points and a little on my top, and it carries throughout the day or night.
I have noticed that with flankers I’ve purchased in recent years, I have to re-spray the fragrance, which was not the case before.
This is a safe blind-buy and as mentioned before, will always be a repeat purchase for me.
Caesar – :
Similar to Venezia Pastello.
Tagirr – :
It’s fruity, pretty, inoffensive, and a little generic. I’m wearing it now, and I won’t remember it after I’ve used the last of the 2ml sample.
alfendolt – :
I adore this scent its a classic perfume for me. My mother had this and I also used it many times. It is a fresh, fruity and juicy fragrance, because of the watermelon and litchi, but the combination with the pure flowers and a hint of vanilla makes it very special. I could wear this every time, its so enjoyable, but anyway I would recommend it for spring and summer.
Gabe – :
Upon the first spray I thought of Escape by CK. Laura is frutier and watermelon is definitely the main player here. I get strong cyclamen and freesia. It’s very aquatic, perfect for spring and summer. I am craving a big bottle, however I am not satisfied with silage and longevity. I have to reapply it every two hours and within an hour it turns into a skin scent and hour later it’s completely gone. Why Laura, why?!:(
I wanted you to be my new summer signature. I agree it’s a very shampoo-like scent, but I don’t find it artificial or cheap. It makes me feel clean and carefree.
pcf152speagoessenda – :
it smells exactly like windex !
lebedevsg1 – :
Whatever to the people that put it down. This is a nice perfume, very floral and long lasting. Smells also like Splendor by Elizabeth Arden.
mostokrany – :
I found this in the late 90’s. My name being Laura, I had to try it. What luck, I liked it! I used my bottle up and haven’t had any for many years. It’s not a sophisticated, sensual scent. It’s not elitist. It’s bright and soft and inoffensive and pretty, and I like that a lot.
I would probably buy it again for a good price. When I mentioned it at Macy’s, the saleslady looked surprised and thoughtful. She hadn’t thought of Laura in a long time. And they didn’t have any.
Miccwj – :
I’m not crazy about Laura. And strangely, I don’t really get the fruity-floral aspect like so many do. It’s very much a freesia dominant scent that is both watery and powdery at the same time. I really can’t pick out any particular notes outside of Freesia. I mean, there *might* be something fruity deep down in the heart of it all, but the scent is just…lacking something. If anything, I think I might be picking up the woody notes most of all after the floral. Everyone’s nose is different, I suppose.
It is ultra soft, so even if I loved the smell, it would get little wear by me.
Aerohopleneritzn – :
I like the idea of this perfume and I think it was a good step at the time it was released. It could be a modern, subtle perfume which was far distinct from regular heavy oriental ones.
Even today it’s better that some of 2015s releases, but it may not be able to compete with loads of new fragrances in the shops.
It is a soft floral, non offensive perfume. smells mostly like freesia with some fresh combination. it is not that much fruity, just some fresh, non-citruses ones to make it suitable for spring.
It has a modest, shy character if you ask me, suitable for females who like to stick to a perfume for a long time with devotion. The bottle is also beautiful and matches the character of the juice inside.
griha3 – :
I’ve got the 25ml Edt; the bottle is very neat & beautiful and it matches the overall scent. Floral, aquatic and a little fruity with a well-blended base. The cedar wasn’t necessary. Light yet not weak. I don’t find any of the notes superior. The melon (some some other notes) in it makes me think it fits warm weather the best.
I like it very much.
Artem155 – :
I was beyond excited when I spotted this bottle on Fragrantica. Years ago, I worked as a hotel chambermaid, and one of the perks of the job was getting to sample various fragrances that we didn’t see in our local shops (for those who travel a lot, take heed – sometimes our spritzes were quite ‘generous’. Keep them in your case!). One day I came across this little lady, had a tentative sniff, liked what I smelled and sprayed it’s fruity, aquatic deliciousness on my wrists, elbows, hair, uniform – I was a walking cloud of pretty. Imagine my horror when the lady-owner unexpectedly returned to her room to retrieve something. I hastily busied myself making the beds while my cheeks burned in shame. There was no way she couldn’t have sussed what I’d been up to, but, lady that she was, she never said a word.
The day she left, I went to strip her beds and found a generous tip, this bottle and a note which said ‘To the dark-haired room attendant – I think this smells better on you than it does me’. How cool is that?! I was THRILLED. All mortification forgotten! I used the entire bottle up, moved on to something else and forgot about it until I joined this site. I racked my brain to remember what it was called, but all I could remember was that it had a girl’s name, and what the bottle looked like. And then, whilst looking at something else entirely, up popped Laura on the left-hand side of the screen! YES!
I ordered her immediately, for very little and now she’s back with me – a beautiful, fresh feminine everyday fragrance. She’s my ‘for-now’ signature – not quite unique, or loud enough to win the full-time role, but a sweet, friendly little temp who is more than up to the job. I heart Fragrantica!
tash – :
I bought a bottle many years ago and I loved it ;it’s a fresh and fruity smell; I ‘d like to buy a new bottle soon
Technologi – :
I agree that I think this perfume is overrated.
Its light and sweet. It might have been nice if it wasn’t so sweet and it had a bit more body.
There are no noticeable layers and there is minimal longevity.
Not for me.
VSergey1987 – :
I was born in 1989 and my mom uses this since 1994, so this scent reminds me of my mother and my lovely childhood. I remember being a little girl and spraying it all over my body… totally not my style but because of these emotions I bought one and whenever I really miss my mom I use this. 🙂
613693 – :
First time looking at the notes. And I’m quiet surprised.
Thought of only 3 notes.
This is probably the softest perfume I have ever had.
So delicate and soft. A real softie.
Something a freshly new mother could use with her bundle of joy at home or even the hospital.
A real softy.
Personally I loved it!
Tatsy38644 – :
I just Think this perfume is overrated. There is just nothing special with it. A plain fruity/ floral.
MYMNREODO – :
“Laura” is a subtle floral /fruity/ aquatic scent. It is gentle, clean and pretty fresh, a little bit sweet and surprisingly modern. Based on the long list of notes one can think it is a classic 90’s scent, but it is not. It perfectly meets modern standards, having a good balance between different groups of notes (fruity vs floral). The scent is super wearable, not overpowering, suitable for the daily use. For me it is a spring & summer scent. The longevity is moderate, up to 4 hours on my skin. Very good value for your money.
palmor3 – :
I like that everything about Laura is so nineties, from the design of the bottle and the box to the smell itself. That makes it somehow familiar and a bit nostalgic; it reminds me of the era of my childhood, even though I don’t know whether anyone around me actually wore it during that period.
The fragrance has an awful lot going on. It’s fruity AND floral AND aquatic AND a bit woody AND there’s a strong vanilla note, all at the same time. On paper that sounds like an absolute mess, but somehow it works. It’s sweet and happy, girly, romantic, inoffensive – but way too unique to be boring. It’s just utterly NICE, if there’s one perfume that fits that word it must be this one.
All that, combined with the nostalgic factor, makes me like Laura very much. I have to say I don’t reach for it very often, but I’m sure I want to keep at least some of it around, just for those rare days when “nice” is exactly what I want.
vallopepall – :
It was given to me a couple of times between my late teens and early 20s when I liked my fragrances very sweet and on the heavier side if that makes sense. It just didn’t suit my fragrance tastes at the time. I don’t know if it was good or bad with my skin chemistry. ‘Laura’ was always gifted to me around Christmas, maybe that’s it; it just didn’t feel right for the season. I’ll test again.I keep going back and forth on whether I want to re-try it or try the rose version. I can’t see any notes in it I shoudn’t like.
ekshn – :
I have the same experience with this perfume that Flowers-in-the-springtime described. The opening is so bland on me that I also thought I was anosmic to it the first time I tested it. The beauty of this fragrance comes out as it develops which for me is about 30 minutes into it. I’m not usually drawn to aquatics but I love this one. Very delicate, very floral, very feminine. I wear this perfume very rarely since I tend to prefer stronger bolder scents but when I do, I fall in love with it all over again. It feels like walking through a garden on early summer mornings before the dew has had a chance to evaporate.
vladimir_gorohovskiy – :
I never expected to fall in love with this perfume as it is everything that I don’t like in a fragrance, but that’s the beauty of Fragrantica, where we get gifted wonderful perfumes which dispel our predjudices and open our minds to trying new things.(Thank you Yohji)
The opening of this scent is very bland on me, I am almost anosmic to the notes but it develops into a magnificent floral composition which wraps itself around me like a cloak and envelops me in this wonderful, addictive floral mist, all softened by the basenotes.
This is truly a beautiful and elegant scent.
It is quiet but responsive, floral without being typical and boring, woody without smelling like a forest and sweet but not candy.
The aquatic vibe that runs through this is truly stunning and makes this a delightful olfactory experience. It develops gradually, wafting up from time to time as a gentle reminder of it’s beauty.
The longevity is very good, this review is for the EDP, silage must be good as this fragrance has been commented on when I have worn it and I have been noticed in a good way.
This is a classy and elegant lady, well recommended!
darginetrerge – :
Very promissiong at the beginning, but then…maybe from 90thies too much..or for odler ladies…It is not very fresh and light on my skin…But sure neutral fragance, not too heavy.
allepsyPlaync – :
A very light fruit and flowermix on my wrist after quite a shower of perfume. Also perfectly sweet.
The problem is it is so light I have to put my nose close to my wrist to even feel it.
It is a lovely perfume but I would have needed to bath in it to be able to enjoy it.
My bodychemistry or the cold winterweather?
Will find out in some month when summer is here.
sllik00 – :
If the femininity had a favorite scent it would be Laura. Delicate and ephemeral – when we think about this particular moment when a woman sends a glance to a man and after a second he is not sure any more if it has happened or it was his dream.
mirin19 – :
The newest addition in my Biagiotti collection is Laura. I cannot say that I was surprised by it, since the notes pyramid is quite accurate and the descriptions very helpful. Laura is indeed a fresh floral fruity perfume that smells familiar in a 90s way. I get lots of the watermelon in the opening, but the overripe kind, or perhaps the watermelon that was sliced the previous day and maybe sat out of the fridge for a bit too long. Many soft flowers are also present, and just a faint touch of peach. Towards the drydown it has many similarities with Tempore Donna, another Biagiotti perfume from the same decade. In fact, I would recommend Laura if you loved Tempore Donna but cannot find it any more (Laura can be found on ebay.uk for really good prices). In conclusion, a nice floral fruity fresh little perfume, with a sweet and musky drydown. Recommended to all the children of the 90s for sure:))
dutjapedala – :
One of my all-time favorite perfumes. Just when I think I’m done with it, I fall in love all over again. Laura is always ensconced in my wardrobe in some format or other. This used to cost an arm and a leg, but am grateful for the occasional summer sale nowadays, now that the perfume’s novelty has dimmed somewhat.
This was groundbreaking when it came out. This is, in a phrase, a fruity floral, but very difficult to describe. It has the lightness of an aquatic without evoking beach, lotus or sport; it has the gentle aroma of the outside of a peach without exploding into fructose, jam or fruit mix. I suppose that freesia and lily of the valley must be present, because the fragrance gives me that feeling of clear-eyed well-being I get from each of these accords, but the florals and fruit are so well-blended you can’t single out a note. A complex mix of woods gives Laura depth, though to me they are already perceptible from the first spray, and come to the fore as the notes of calone (watermelon) and the other fruits fade.
This is a youthful, but by no means juvenile, perfume. Older women can wear it too – and enhance that romantic, endearing playfulness that only comes with age. There was nothing like Laura before its release in 1994, but plenty of emulators (or homages) popped up subsequently, including at least one Hugo Boss, an Ellen Tracy and a slew of drugstore dupes.
Just beautiful.
slava.svv – :
beautiful mellow delicate. ihad it in high-school, i want it again.
egor.zheryakov-nba – :
it’s a very beautiful scent, more fruity than floral as it seems to me. nevertheless, i’d use in winter only because it gets a bit too sweet and annoying when it’s warm
ValMol – :
For me it smells like a beautiful quiet evening just before the sunset. Last days of May, a beautiful garden, where the sun shines through the fresh green leaves. So beautiful!
червяк – :
yuck… This has some aquatic I don’t know what it is that isn’t nice at all… Might be the just the truth that I like much much more powdery than aquatic fragrances and they do also smell so much nicer on my skin
Mox28 – :
It’s such a beautiful scent. It’s light, but not watery, dewy light. It’s like air filled with floral aroma in the summery afternoon. It makes you feel so happy, feminine, and very attractive. Whenever I wear it, it draws constant attention of men and women alike.
Men want to know what I wear and buy it for their wives and girlfriends. Has good staying power. Wish they will never stop making this fragrance.
manalit – :
I would like to get my hand on a bottle of this…
Sometimes i like to find fragrances that are unusual and are not the NEW OUT type…
Managed to get hold of a small sample bottle and really like it… It is light and flowery, yet intriguing and dries down into a pleasant clean vanilla smell… not sure whether vanilla is in it, but something like that…
Just checked, vanilla is in it… Well done me…
So yes, this is on my Christmas list this year…
sergey.rashtnko.64 – :
My Mom wore it for years, maybe that’s why – maybe isn’t – I just love it!!! It is a well recognisable(that means unique), warm, complex floral scent. I adore the lily-of-the-valley in it!
And on my Mom it was longlasting too.
lenyak – :
@ Jazzku and Hollyms, i had that same experience recently with CK’s Euphoria. Wonder what note turns to puke smell sometimes :D.
Laura was my signature scent for years, i wasn’t even trying out other fragrances, wasn’t that interested, after finding a good one. Then i got more into perfumes, and Laura was left in the drawer for a couple of years. The other day i tried it again. It still is pretty, it is fresh, and for an EdT it has great longevity on me. I do find it a bit boring now though, after sampling, and using a lot of different fragrances. It’s a pretty and safe choice, if you wanna smell good, not offend anyone, and blend in to the crowd. Not that i even now like my perfume to scream “i’m here!”, or fill a room, i just guess i want something a bit more complex and different now.
karpuskula – :
I like the lightness in this. The freshness also.
But to me Laura is boring. I can use it only a day and i have to put the bottle away.
Got this as a gift from a trip abroad and i refuse to give away. Was so expensive.
Maybe someday i can understand it more.
jason_753 – :
hollyms, I noticed the vomit smell for the first time today, logged on to read reviews, and there you said it! My Laura bottle is a little old, so i think this is something that happens if it goes bad? At least it hasn’t been smelling like vomit on me until today.
galoks – :
This was my first fragrance, beside Cerruti 1881. I was wearing this fragrance till last year, and have it no more. Am not into it right now, but have great memories with this fragrance!
neftyanik25 – :
Hi Minjka,I am also from Riga and live in NY too!:)))And I also appreciate Laura,although I wish it was a bit stronger and lasted longer on me. So delicate,flowery-fruity perfume, a smell from my 20’s..Ladies,any of you knows anything similar to it?
Xeroxmvhwn – :
Laura!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a day it was, some time in 2001, Riga, Latvia…My neighbor, sweet lady gave me this present. It was my firs prefume by designer. I felt like a fancy lady at age of 21.
This perfume brings me wonderful memmories,about Latvia (I leave in NY, USA)about wonderful friends, and being young and ready to conquer the world. 32 now, I’m still conquering and it feels like I have along way ahead of me, but with this perfulme, I will feel better, smell better.
This perfume today is underappreciated, which is not Fair, but it has a cheep price, best time to buy it ladies. I will recomend!
shogivashoown – :
I had to change my review of this perfume ever since one day someone sat down next to me and immediately asked what smelled like puke!! I brushed it off, thinking she must have been smelling something else, but now that I think of it, I can see how someone would think it smelled like vomit. Umm, no more Laura for me, ever.
Dushagor – :
This was my very first perfume I ever had, I will always love this. This is fresh, warm, and classy.
yur7349 – :
I close my eyes…
A young woman- rosy her skin, a delicate, soft fragrance of flowers lingers about her dress- she is beaming with the happiness.
She’s pregnant- just heard the good news now.
IT’S ME!- 9 years ago.
This for me “Laura”
A beautiful fragrance, beautiful memories! 🙂
I LOVE IT FOREVER!

berkut1979 – :
I just found this one at Ross, at $20 bucks the 1.7oz, its very nice, feminine, pretty! Love it!
ko4egar – :
This is one of my favorites. I love it, it is so distinctive, recognisable, feminine and pleasant. Not overpowering, just wonderful, neither sweet, nor “fresh”. Too bad it has become hard to find.
Beautiful bottle design.
unabustaink – :
I just bought Laura as a gift to my mother. It is very pleasant, gentle, and calm. Very feminine. No harsh, striking notes, even from the very beginning. They are all perfectly blended into one alluring scent. I sprayed just a little bit on my arm and it subtly reminded me about itself with every move of my hand. It is still there after 7 hours. I can imagine it would caress me like a veil if I used some more. It combined with my skin so well I feel it’s me who smells so good not the perfume. Although it has a noticeable silage, it stays close to the skin so I would not be afraid of making innocent people breathe my perfume instead of the air. This is what I’ve been taught to be very bad manners. Perfume is an intimate thing and only people who get really close should be able to detect it.
Laura is grown up and cheerful in the same time. It is also European-style, not too sweet or “foody” which feels right to me probably just because I grew up with those kinds of scents around me.
I feel pleasure every time I bow my head to my arm. This is what I would like my man to smell when he rubs his face against my body.
SKVOZZ – :
Very nice peachy floral scent. Despite its softness it doesn’t only stay close to the skin but you can smell its presence in a very gentle way whenever you make a move. Lovely.
kostyakrasko – :
My auntie had it in 1994 when I was only 15. She disliked it, and occasionally let me use it. I LOVED it…and not only that sweet, feminine scent, but the fact, that it was a real perfume (OK, edt, but still)and I was allowed to use it…wow. Guess I started to grow up at that time.
End of childhood, beginning of womanhood, blossoming senses, adventure, love, excitement…how can all these things be put in such a graceful and elegant bottle?!:-D
Zhenya – :
I got this as a gift. It smells a bit sour on my skin, and I can`t seem to like it. Not a good perfume for me.
cusser – :
Laura is the first scent what I’ve ever smelled…I remember how I wanted this beauty when I was teenager…and I have to say, this perfum is my favorit until this day. It’s a very gentle, soft, feminin scent. When I’m wearing this I feel like a goddess and it’s just lasts forever on my skin.:)
valerikon – :
This is quite a pleasant scent. It’s gentle, a little on the acquatic side but not too fresh. Even I as a non-acquatic-scent-user like this one. It seems to last quite good. It’s a good office or daytime scent. I’m not sure if I would buy it but it’s at least a scent you can tolerate well on others.
Stas_777 – :
What a pleasant surprise! Laura is a very smooth floral fragrance. Very feminine, romantic and innocent. To me the composition is blended perfectly because I can’t pick out any separate notes. Excellent perfume for summer time.
Blereoppy – :
My stepdad bought this parfume for my mother years ago. My mother never used it as it gave her a headache. I remember “playing” with it as a kid as it was the only parfume we had at the house and I was a little princess back then. You can probably guess that my mother wasn’t that happy when she smelled it in the hallway.
To me it always smelled a bit weird. It was very sharp and fresh. I never figured out what I actually smelled in there. It was somehow messy.
Definitely not for me or my family.
ZloyFahitos – :
Yes this is a georges fresh comforty smelling perfume. feels clean and fresh. the fruty notes goes so well whit the flower ,like a boquet of lovely flowers. I can almost dream that this is a fresh waterfall in a exotic place , all of nature around smelling just divine.
Somedays i just want to feel fresh and uplifted , thats when i turn to this on.
Had one 15 years ago and bought it again this year . still beautiful after all this year:)
sba095speagoessenda – :
Yes!! I’ve bought Laura today again, after so many years. By lucky chance, for an unbelievably great price. Oooh, i guess i love this fragrance now even more… It’s amazing. So very gentle, tender, soft, cuddly, smiley, heavenly beautiful.
bebew92 – :
How i love this fragrance! I had it a long time ago, always wore it with a great pleasure. It is truely a very gentle, soft, romantic, feminine scent with a Mona Lisa smile. A great perfume!
othedayneashyc – :
I had this perfume long time back when i was in 7th or 8th grade. My friend and I were in love with it and it was our signature scent. I do not know if i can find it these days.. I wish i could.. it will remind me of those beautiful days !!
leshii83 – :
I had this perfume about 10 years ago and I must say that when I was wearing it all men ( including my boss..) were asking me :pls tell me what perfume are you wearing, it’s wonderful…so this is the effect it had on them.
vovan17 – :
Laura is a feminine, clean, watery, fruity floral scent and it is not sweet at all.
I bought a 50ml bottle 10 years ago and I still cherish it and only use it on special occasions but only because back then it was really expensive and me being a student at uni I did not really have the money to buy unnecessary stuff… I had to set aside some money for months just to be able to afford it.
It is a special perfume to me.
angels1989 – :
Must be something about the hot summer in 2010 that is drawing me to these fruity and flowery scents. I’m not usually a big fan of this category, but I find myself wearing these a lot this year.
Laura is a really nice fruity floral (emphasis on floral) for grown-ups. It opens with warm almonds and maple syrup aroma, with a hint of chopped fresh fruit. It dries down over time to a floral woody amber, with fresh, clean musk notes in the last hour or two. Very pleasant and not at all a typical “fruit punch” fruity floral perfume. I feel totally comfortable wearing this one for daytime or office wear. It’s not too sweet, not too girly. Somehow, it also suits these sultry summer nights. Very nice and fresh, with a hint of sexiness!
Laura has decent longevity for an EDT, with better than average sillage.
(I briefly owned a bottle of Hugo Boss Woman and I found Laura and Boss Woman to be almost identical scents. Just wanted to make note of it in case this info is helpful in some way.)
PEPS.777.KZ – :
This is a summertime go-to fragrance for me, one of a few I own. A close friend of mine was given a bottle and I tried it and loved the peachy / watermelon top notes with the creamy notes underneath.
It’s very lady-like and doesn’t overwhelm the wearer but you can still smell wafts of it as you turn your head.
Also, I don’t know if this is just me, but does anyone else think ‘Laura’ smells like Olay Total Effects moisturiser, the one in the pump? I love her for that.
koty2509 – :
Very nice summer smell. Fresh floral. But I would not buy it. Just not enough love.
ordzho – :
I don’t know what part of this perfume it is, something smelling really strange and artificial makes me not liking it.
ilia13 – :
A friend had it, and we both thought this smelled like almonds – purely, almost nothing else. It’s very interesting that it’s not among the notes! As an almondy frangrance, it’s very nice, but as a floral or fruity, well… strange.
vumek – :
First, I smelt this a few years ago, in my god-mother’s house. The big coincidence is that my god-mother’s name is Laura. I though it could be a caprice…coming from her. So I decided to smell it. I wasn’t very pleased, at first. The only thing that really impressed me then, was the bottle. So simple, yet so sophisticated. Two weeks ago, while visiting a big mall, I tried this perfume and instantly I remembered her. This time I loved the fragrance and and I decided to buy it. I got so many compliments while wearing it, so it really worth trying it again!

This is a beautiful scent. I had a friend from Poland who used to wear this and she always smelled so good. It was the only thing she wore, her signature scent. I adore this fragrance. It’s clean, fresh, innocent yet lady like. I’ve been on the hunt for it for awhile now. It’s on my must have list. It just reminds me of springtime and frivolity.

The opening fruity blend is so beautiful, it’s like touching real fruits with your nose when you close your eyes and want to absorb as much of the incredible deliciousness as you can.
I wanted this ravishing, delicate sweetness to last forever, but shortly it transformed into my favorite flowery scent, freesias and flawless orchids. As the two flowers are gentle and sophisticated, so is Laura drydown, no effort, no shouting, beauty speaks for itself.
Absolutely feminine, gentle fragrance alluring with its refinement.

This perfume was a present to me because my daughter is named Laura. I have treated it as somewhat special and kept it rather unused, but when I do use it, it’s fresh and pleasant, but not in a way that I’d want to wear it daily.
It’s summery and florally fresh and not overly sweet.
Very pretty flacon, I think.

I love this scent since i was a child, its a classic perfume for me. My mother had this and i also used it many times. “Laura” is a fresh, fruity and juicy fragrance, because of the watermelon and litchi, but the combination with the pure flowers and a hint of vanilla makes it to a special one. I could smell this one every time, its so enjoyable, but anyway i would recommend it for spring and summer. People who dont like too sweet or heavy scents will like this one, im sure 🙂

A kind, floral scent for pretty summer days. Peach comes out nicely. Fresh, gentle and a bit anonymous.
