I really love this scent! It’s fun, fruity, sporty and innocent! It totally reminds me of a squeaky clean shampoo. I think all young women should give this a go.
klaes – :
This was given to me as a gift. Yawn. On to the next.
Galkalend – :
The bottle:
It’s a cute and simple round bottle.
Inside the bottle:
Fresh,aquatic,fruity,summer and sporty is how I would describe this perfume.
When sprayed you get a aquatic apple scent then few seconds later the mandarin orange comes in. When it’s dries you get the scent of the florals in it but the star in this perfume is the apple and orange.Longevity is decent probably need to spray a few times in the day. It sticks close to the skin.
Overall:
I feel like this perfume is something everyone should have at least once. It’s the perfect blend of sweet,fresh and florals like the middle ground for everyone to enjoy.
It’s light and a sporty scent that is refreshing great for the summertime! I recommend this perfume for people who loves the sweet,fresh scent or for someone who is starting to wear perfume or sensitive to it.
shevketk – :
I swapped for a roller ball of this. Ralph is a likable scent. Nothing is bad about it yet nothing is amazing. It is a typical fresh/fruity/floral. Do not see myself repurchasing it but I enjoy it.
TaitteMitoela – :
I thought, well give it a try. It’s extreme hot this summer in Europe and I need a simple, fresh floral fragrance to get by. Light and cheerful. Clean and innocent. So I bought a small used bottle RALPH RALPH LAUREN for a few bucks. But one spritz and I knew enough. Like I did when I recently tried Be Delicous from DKNY again. I must be in the twenties when these type of perfumes liked me and vice versa. But that’s the past. Maybe clean is a better word for I want now. I think of the heavenly smell that I experience when I put my nose in daffodils or lilac in spring. Intense but fresh. Floral and clean. RALPH RALPH LAUREN is not clean to me. Or maybe I just don’t like apples. Well, in perfumes that is.
marten76 – :
It’s so hot and humid in Toronto, this very fresh aquatic floral fruity is really fitting the bill!
NICETOS – :
I had acquired this perfume as a gift in my early 20s. It smells citrusy, sweet and fresh. I was never really in love with this perfume, but I kept purchasing and wearing it because I received compliments from it, so it became my signature perfume.
I won’t be wearing it as much or repurchasing it because it reminds me of a past relationship: moving on!
vcs723Unlogrere – :
It is so refreshing ..amazing for summer days. When I smell it I feel thirsty. Once my sister asked me what perfume am I wearing.. she said that she felt thirsty when she smelled it too.
yni421JeomiWogkig – :
It smells like… plastic bag with pinch of musk and iris? Distantly reminds me leather bag, it doesn’t smell like leather, but somewhat reminds it. I can imagine that inside of woman bag can smell similar like this, not sure how to explain it better. This scent in some form is somewhere around… it’s familiar. Not too strong, subtle, enough inoffensive, fun, comfortable, fresh, bit warm, bit ‘heavy’ and sharp, chemical. Rather on sport-y and business type side, than romantic. Is there little bit pepper? I can sense apple, citrus and fresh note. I also can get some unpleasant, dirty note, maybe somewhere there is patchouli hidden. Overall reminds me 90s, but will also fit 20 years later.

★★★★
I found a Cosmair era bottle of this hidden at my house (probably a forgotten gift)
The original formula of this scent is simple, optimistic & lovely. When you spray it on you get a chlorinated kids pool vibe which I absolutely love, and then it gets sweeter as time goes by without losing its initial airiness.
What I admire is the overall fresh & airy character, it is refreshing in high temperatures and suits all casual day situations. I consider this a unisex scent and much better than today’s sweet masculine freshies (sorry Aqua Invictus)
I would describe this as an apple sweet accord embraced by wet floral freshness. Its character may satisfy any 90s nostalgia enthusiast. It has decent projection and you can sense it for at least 6 hours in medium heat.
If I was writing this review in the 90s, the rating would have been three stars, but nowadays, you don’t get that kind of freshness anywhere. The fabulous Amongst Waves by Gallagher could be an exception as its also successfully sweet & airy at the same time.
In conclusion, the original formula of Ralph, is sweet & easy, youthful & fresh. Not exceptional, but truly a 90s staple!
cala7 – :
Ralph by Ralph Lauren smells something awful on me. Something like a floral garden meets avinegsr bottle. I know this is a beloved scent but it doesn’t work with my body chemistry.
Im sure it’s some kind of floral scent, but it is so cloying I cannot pick out anything other than thick, which I know is not a scent but it’s the only descriptor I have. One positive, the dry down is a nice soft vanilla which I found to be a pleasure after the opening floral vinegar scent. I wish the whole fragrance was the dry down and I would have loved this perfume.
Also, Ralph had no staying power on my skin. It lasted less than three hours on me, so having a bottle with you at all times to reapply throughout the day was a must.
manuely – :
This smells achingly like something from my childhood, though I haven’t been able to put my finger on what. It’s really cute – a shame I didn’t have this at 14! I’d say the apple and freesia are the most noticeable. It stays quite crisp and clear as it progresses, as well.
Upselasnani – :
This is one of the perfumes I genuinely love. I wear it quite often and will always have a bottle of Ralph in my collection. If you’ve got a teenager who is new to perfumes, this is a good one to start with. I think this is a younger scent. Longevity is 8+ hours.
данил13 – :
Ralph, like many others, is the grandchild (or great-grandchild?) of Debbie Gibson’s “Electric Youth” (and to a lesser extent, fragrances like Coty’s wonderful “Tribe”). Introduced in the late 80’s, Electric Youth was the first true fruit-bomb scent. And unfortunately because of the slew of IFRA restrictions implemented since that time, it’s difficult to see how a scent like Electric Youth with its insane bombastic performance could happen again. So we have to settle for releases like “Ralph”, which is pretty terrific. And of course the wannabees like Justin Bieber’s “Girlfriend”, Avon’s “Wink”, Escada’s “Rockin’ Rio”, etc…
I’m not going to go as far as to say Ralph is the pale shadow of Electric Youth. Truly it is unfair to compare the two considering the restraints put on the fragrance industry as a whole. But it certainly lags behind. Still, it’s quite acceptable. Basically what you’re getting is a pleasant swim in a bowl of fruit punch (whereas with Electric Youth, you got a fruit laden Hiroshima-like explosion, followed by the sensation of getting beaten in the face by a bag of watermelon candies). It’s girlish, lovingly obnoxious, youthful and fun. If the sitcom “Saved by the Bell” gave off a scent, this would be it.
Highly recommended. But not for folks who are only into super-sophisticated affairs. Ralph is a portrait of a thirteen year old boy-crazy gossipy junior high school student as seen through technicolor lenses.
tamara0987 – :
I got this because it’s supposed to smell like Paris Hiltons perfume and you can’t get any good ones anymore. Now I don’t know If I just got a bad one but instead of that fresh fruity smell that I liked about Paris it smelled more like the expired version. I would describe it as a smell that reminds me of rice/rice pudding. Does anyone even know what I mean?
denissaaa – :
In Canada one of the drugstore chains will sell 30 ml bottles of designer fragrances for $20 so I bought Ralph. Ugh… too sweet and floral for me. Spectacular for attracting bees though!
juriykozin1984 – :
I was feeling extra nostalgic and found myself obsessively craving a BOTTLE of this. Not a sample or even a splash mini, I needed an entire bottle to get the full effect of spraying this all over, the way I did back in high school and my freshman year of college. In spite of inwardly knowing that I had long outgrown this scent and fragrances like it, I couldn’t help myself and bid on a used bottle. (Spoiler alert: I won!)
The opening is fresh and sugary, very fruity in a crisp, clean way, with an interesting (if not synthetic) undertone of “pretty flowers.” Definitely freesia. Super girly. Then it gets much sportier as the fruit burns off, and for a while this is a pleasant, dated little ditty, inoffensive and perfect for casual day wear, freshly showered, jeans and t-shirt, hair in a ponytail. Only young teenagers can get away with wearing this to be fancy. It’s not immature, but it’s underwhelming and sexually sterile. Also, it has a bitter metallic after-bite that sticks in the back of my throat and gives me the impression of eating ink, like those hyper-pigmented purple gumballs you get out of the machine for 25 cents.
The dry down is acceptable. Nondescript chemical musk. I wish I got more of the iris.
I know why I enjoyed this when I was younger, and I feel like it set the stage for some of my preferences in adulthood. These days I tend to gravitate toward more natural smelling blends, with a little more depth and intrigue, a little more sex (it’s true), and less freesia. So much less freesia.
ilya59reg – :
I loved this fragrance, wore it the year my daughter was born in summer 2002. Its fresh, clean and a bit fruity. I can detect the apple, a green crisp apple.
lesya=) – :
I used to think this was the most amazing stuff in the whole world lol. Wore it for much of my college life up until about 28 years old. One day, while smelling it, it became overwhelmingly tart. I love the musk in it. My bf loves it though as it is sentimental for him now. I think i will keep it, but i think its time for a new signature. Overall, this perfume holds a special place in my heart and is great for women under 25 I’d say.. but i could see an older eccentric woman rocking it too. Age doesnt matter, we dont all have to smell the same! Wear what you want to wear.
Sany38rus – :
I LOOOOOVE this scent so much. There is just something about it…It LASTS on my skin. It is deeper than just fruity sweetness on me. It must be that musk…I enjoy musky scents. It brings back nice memories of when I was younger… I think I will forever purchase this scent.
uox665speagoessenda – :
This is my weekend perfume. I reach for this often as it is casual and fresh. Fruity and airy fragrance that I absolutely love. This summery scent lasts long too- even on hot weather when I tend to perspire too much!
evgenij1428 – :
Ralph smells like beach and tropical fruits. I know, the notes are not exactly that, but I can’t get any flowers here. Fruits and musk, that’s what it is. Therefore it reminds me old school Escadas, I can’t tell which one.
alex428 – :
So lovely, fresh and young. It is so citrusy. I’m impressed because I had it for such a long time (about 8 years) and the scent remained the same. Longevity and projection are ok. Good quality in general, worth the price.
anjey1312 – :
I loved this perfume since I smelled it about 12 years ago, in high school, and always wanted it. I got it as gift then and I still love it for casual summer days. It’s my most repurchased bottle and, unlike other fruity summer fragrances that I do not like anymore, at 31 years old, this I still love. I could call it the “smell of my youth” :)))
lordfigher – :
Ralph is more freesia than apple to me, with melony aquatic notes and a clean musk in the background. Maybe the bottle design has a part in this (cause of course it doesn’t smell like chlorine and french fries with mayo) but it reminds me of a swimming pool.
It is a bit synthetic and not the most expensive smelling or refined perfume, but refreshing and summery.
I wouldn’t buy it, but sniffing it makes me feel a little nostalgic. It’s very 2000s. I had Ralph Cool, the fruitier version, back then. They’re nowhere near the same, but they share the Ralph DNA. Now I’m not into this kind of fragrance as much anymore, but if you like fresh and sweet floral aquatics, this is a classic.
pasha73 – :
This smells EXACTLY like Escada Rockin Rio, the original formula
aleks1977101277 – :
I am a big fan of green apple note and it is no surprise that I love this perfume. To me, this perfume doesn’t only smell like green apple like be delicious, but it has some sweet floral side to it which is a good change for me. I don’t usually like sweet perfume but this one is exception. This perfume also represents nostalgic and I remember always wanting this perfume when I was younger because my mum had it. Even though, lots of people hate this perfume and say it smells like your generic shampoo or soap. It smells like that on paper, but on my body and clothing- it is purely amazing.
gugunea13 – :
Unfortunately, this blind but didn’t work out for me. I like sweet scents, but the sweetness of the apple was just too cloying. I thought it would tone down, but it never did. Very disappointed.
alcyone – :
It straight up smells like shampoo. It reminds me of DKNY be delicious and Twilight Mauve by Zara. Fruity, clean, crisp, floral.
MaykCh – :
A great everyday fragrance I always go back to. It’s fresh and a bit sweet, a real crowd pleaser and a good choice for a gift.
maksim_gonchar – :
A women’s perfume named Ralph?? Really???
Why didn’t they call it Lauren???
apex1973 – :
as soon as I sprayed this on I immediately smelled Suave Waterfall mist shampoo from so long ago! It actually brought back good memories of when my grandparents lived with me<3 very pretty too. fun summer scent
Mishca333 – :
I had it when I was in my late teens to early 20s. It was my signature scent then. It’s a nice scent for younger ladies for sure.
Liya515 – :
this wasn’t a favorite of mine growing up. I wore his cool and his hot religiously though now dc’d. my best friend had this one and luckily for the fans of this original, it’s not only still around in true form, I get it from many other perfumes. I wish just one designer would dupe cool or hot. geez
tihona75 – :
A woman whose children I used to care for kept a bottle of this in her bathroom. Every once in awhile, if it was a hot day, I would steal a squirt as a pick-me-up. It was such a fresh apple smell, but definitely had magnolia underneath that came out on the drydown. Later on I discovered that Paris Hilton’s eponymous fragrance was a straight up copy of Ralph.
I could see having a bottle of this one day for nostalgia purposes (my babysitter days are long past!) and because it is a nice fresh, fruity summer scent.
16180339887 – :
Here is another fragrance that my mother bestowed upon me, unprovoked, for a good five years in my late teens and twenties. My first name is Lauren, and I had a gym teacher in high school who used to call me Ralph. So that’s a point docked off this right away. However, like Clinique Happy, which I was also receiving yearly from my mother in tandem with this, I wore it excessively through college and my early twenties, simply because I was poor and because it was there.
My memories of this are the fruitiness, the scent mixed with dance sweat and cigarette smoke from long nights spent sneaking into bars on the weekend with fake IDs. Of unfortunate dates, and the even more unfortunate mornings that followed. My scent memory for this is strong, and while it’s not my favorite, or even my style, by any stretch of the imagination, it was one of the first fragances I had ever worn as an adult on my own, and there’s definitely a special place in my life for that. It smells like those years too – happy, innocent (sort of), and full of youthful promise!
Drinchich – :
I’ve had this perfume for a few years now and it is one of my go to perfumes for the Fall. I mostly wear DKNY Delicious Candy Apples Ripe Raspberry during the Fall but I like alternating it with Ralph, just for fun.
I get sweet apples from it. It’s subtle, fresh, and light with a bit of sweetness. The perfect transition for a month or two before starting to wear those gourmand winter fragrances!
gavrikus75 – :
My very first fragrance! Obviously it has a special place in my heart but actually the fragrance itself is very well made.
I’m not a huge fan of RL fragrances, they don’t seem to last on me and they’re a bit on the cool side than I like my scents to be warm.
Ralph is an apple-y, flowery goodness that I find appropriate for every age. The opening can be a bit sharp but after 10 minutes or so it becomes so pleasant.
Ralph is incredibly fresh, yummy, energetic, optimistic and for me RL’s best hit.
Another great side is the lasting power which in my case was ALL day and I remember it always lingered on my clothes.
And it draws so many compliments! 🙂
AS_PS1X_ZP1D – :
Like smelly jeans after a spring break party, stained with tanning lotion, kids perfumes, beach sand, and possibly cocaine
zdr082Bessinepome – :
Surprisingly juicy and bubblegum-y. Nice for a young bubbly girl or child.
dominiuk – :
This is what my gf wears and it is also ALL she ever wears. I like it, it’s simple but I feel like it’s gone within a few hours on her. This is a like for me, but ladies… Don’t make this a signature scent. If you do, you could come across as unadventurous. Lacks depth in my opinion.
Doker – :
I got this as a gift my senior year of high school. It was my signature scent for awhile then. It smells very fresh and clean. It’s not all that complex, just very crisp. I do remember not having to spray much at all. 1 or 2 sprays. It can be very strong. A bottle lasts a very long time for that reason.
HooxAfteror – :
This is the case when note list and actual perfume doesn’t match. I can agree about apple leaf note on first spray, but later it gets sooo tropical! I could bet there’s peach or apricot hidden in this floral bouquet.
isinyo – :
This belongs to the same category in my like-list with Bright Crystal and Brit Sheer : a lovely fresh scent which has good balance between fruit and florals. Fresh feminine scent, that is very comfortable, easy to wear.
It might not be the most unique, I might not go and buy it, but if I got this as a gift, I’d use till the last drop.
Nikita_kit – :
This scent reminds me of Bath and Body Works Beautiful Day, but with more musk.
I enjoyed the crisp apple notes and the musky drydown, but longevity was on the low end of moderate with a “skin scent” sillage. I was expecting more sillage from this because Ralph Lauren fragrances usually are more noticeable.
It’s a good choice for a daytime summer fragrance, and is “office-friendly”.
I would not buy this for myself, but if I received a bottle as a gift I would not be unhappy, it’s just not my favorite.
SergeyN844 – :
This a fresh citrusy type that doesn’t last at all and is way overpriced for sure. It’s an ok scent but there are better options out there for the money in my opinion. Nothing special.
zubenkosm1 – :
I’m surprised so many people voted that this smells like Paris Hilton (which is one of my favorites) because I don’t smell the resemblance. Ralph is such a general, nondescript fragrance. The dry down is heavy and old lady-ish–like a lot of perfumes. Overall, disappointing for its lack of personality.
nicolette278 – :
Acceptable casual frag. Fruity, tropical, can’t remember if it’s very sweet or not though.
I smelled this in a friend of middle eastern decent, and it was gorgeous, in a fresh fruity clean way. On me it isn’t my thing. I could use it, but would rather have others instead.
Not citrus I don’t think, more juicy, more sophisticated than a Britney Spears option from memory.
Fine, good, inoffensive
kadet5 – :
This is the epitome of cheap and cheerful for me. My mother used to wear it on very hot nights whilst on holiday in Greece when I was younger. It always has very pleasant connotations for me for that alone. I think that this is where it shines – hot summer nights when its freshness sits against warm skin quite potently and feels tropical. I used to steal sprays but it always smelt better on her than on me though!
In grey London today it feels considerably more subdued, but not in a bad way. I have a hangover this morning and couldn’t face all my usual daytime suspects as powder and white flowers risked intensifying my headache so I reached for Ralph.
It’s so fresh and fun. The apple is the overwhelming takeaway from the opening but the citrus stops it from becoming a solo act. The apple stays strong throughout the drydown and is still detectable later along with some iris and freesia. It’s a lovely, light, youthful and casual fragrance for a murky day and has lifted my spirits. But…….Oh. THOSE SUMMER NAAHIIIGHHTTSSS. I can’t wait to take it to Portugal in a few weeks time to get that hot skin under it and unleash its full potential.
I paid £15 for 30ml – bargain.
Vitusja121 – :
my first perfume , I remember I smelled it in a magazine, my mom couldn’t afford it so my grandma bought it for me,she bought me probably 3 bottles since I always told her when I ran out, I was prob about 16, I remember it being on my counter the day I was getting ready for prom, I went alone I was shy kid but ralph was always with me I felt like one of the cool girls who wore it back then 2004, nowadays I still love it and get compliments, a staple in my collection, nostalgia to the max I sometimes want to cry when I smell it reminds me of no worries, youth, beach with family, the good times, I wish I could go back
vkt_maks – :
I got Ralph Lauren as a scentbrid sample. I like it. It doesnt smell exactly like Paris Hilton though. I should put Paris on one wrist and Ralph on the other wrist and do a side by side lol….but i think Ralph is just little bit fruiter and fresher…Paris hilton is more floral. I like them both TBH.
2Юра – :
Oh my gosh, so fresh! Many people say some fragrances like Bombshell and Miracle smell like shampoo, but if you’re looking for a shampoo scent, this is the one. This is the freshest scent I’ve ever encountered! I love it so much! I’m not even sure which shampoo it smells like. Perhaps Herbal Essences? It’s so-so nice. No funky musk either!
frady12009 – :
I used to love this one. It was actually one of my first perfumes as a teenager.
I had the 100ml one and couldn’t finish it. I got bored and couldn’t even smell it on my skin at times. It becomes too overpowering and irritates me.
yanchik91-1 – :
This is an unchanging thing for me from my highschool and university years. I always miss and need freshness of it.
And had compliments from guys all the time.
Men love it girls, for information 🙂
mhes65 – :
This is a fun scent for summer, chic, fresh, light casual. Leaves a soft gentle feminine trail, not offensive, it’s pretty and inviting.
If you’re looking for a clean airy fruity shampoo smell, this is it ! Sweet juicy apples, soft subtle flowers, fresh air, and a very light clean white musk are blended beautifully for a very uplifting, refreshing, joyous perfume.
Lasts about 6 to 8 hours on skin, and 10 hours in hair. I get lots of flattering compliments every single time I wear this !
egasymov – :
Despite the negative reviews of this, I love it. It lightens up my senses and tickles my nose; a fruity aquatic concoction that screams summer in the water and cool jeans-wearing catalogue girl. It may smell like shampoo, but that’s why I love it: a whiff of it resembles that fresh out of the shower scent. Anything with Italian mandarin and magnolia is the way to go!
Numuttegobort – :
Sweet, understated. Lovely. A day wear candidate. But before I go for the full bottle I’d go for other classics. Still this is fruity and clean. A casual if chic beauty.
vertifighter – :
Nothing special for the price. This smells like some of those fresh EDTs by Adidas or Nike. Fresh, clean and fruity, sweet but not cloying. This is something a teenage girl can wear with ease or something good after taking a shower at the gym. Also reminds me of some Herbal Essences shampoo. I wouldn’t pay that much for this juice as I find it too common and some of the cheaper offerings by Adidas would perform equally well. Sillage is small and longevity is not very good. Fortunately it was a gift because I’d rather spend those Euros in something more distinctive and less juvenile
arsweb – :
As bizarre as this nay sound…I had a gal I used to work with that ….well, she was a lover of the marijuana lol and anytime she went on her lunch break she would smoke. As she was getting ready to come back into the building she would give herself a spray of this. So, as much as I loooooved this I always related it to the smell of pot and her lol any who, its been a number of years since I have worked there, or seen her. So when I came across this today on for 19.99 I couldn’t believe it. First of all 20 bucks for a 50 mls bottle of ralph Lauren perfume is unheard of. I had to ask, and then double ask the cashier if that was the right price!! Any who, it is such a gorgeous fresh floral. And although its been worn hundreds of millions of times by I would say millions of women world wide-it still smells so pretty. Its a safe bet for a work place fragrance, or any gathering of people you may or nay not know! Love
robin bobin – :
This perfume always reminds me of my mom,
she was the first person I ever smelled this on.
My mom is not a White Diamonds, or Guerlain musky kind of mom, my mom loves modern scents.
This perfume is beautiful, it reminds me of the beach a sunny day, glistening turquoise sea, with tons of people enjoying their selves.
The longevity however is a whole different story,
anything past 2 hours you will smell on your clothes only.
Assuttinomi – :
I kinda like it, but not really. Is is fruity but I agree with a lot here that say it smells like shampoo. To me is not exactly that scent, but it is a combination of the fruity scents they use on shampoo. I’m not really sure I can recognize the apple or mandarin, it just smells fruity, not really flowery and a bit musky. Not a bad scent, it smells clean, it is just not for me.
It was there very softly for maybe 4 or 5 hours with a moderate sillage.
yalapin – :
It smells like a fruity clean shampoo. Very 90s.
Kelmenegree – :
My favorite perfume smelling of tropical fruits,apples and apple blossom. I was always sure there’s something like pineapple or melon note in it. I don’t mind it smelling like shampoo, it means this perfume is good and big if the formula is used everywhere. Few years forward and we will have hairsprays smelling like Viva La Juicy or Fantasy.
Ilya777999 – :
I had a bottle of this in high school back in the early 00’s. I loved it then, and whenever I sniff a store tester, I’m reminded why. It takes me right back to standing in front of my mirror in my childhood bedroom getting dressed for school, and riding in my then-boyfriend’s car (I think I actually got this as a birthday present from his mom). I remember my pink plaid capri pants that I thought were the coolest thing ever, and puka-shell necklaces. Very fruity, juicy, and fresh. I wouldn’t wear it anymore, but it was just perfect for being that age during that time period, and with great quality/longevity. If I needed to buy a gift for a teenage girl, I wouldn’t hesitate to get this… I think it could be a nice change of pace from most of the scents teenage girls are wearing these days.
guncher – :
This one might be a nice perfume in 90’s.But nowadays it smells like hair-spray.If a young girl with this perfume passing me by,I may think that”hmm..this girl must just have a hair-do from a salon nearby”…
bo67na – :
The more I smell this fragrance the more I like it. At first it was a bit “sharp” and “in ya face!” But now I kinda like that, I think it’s the apple I can smell- Apple can be tart and sweet- that’s this fragrance with crispness added. It’s fresh and refreshing I have many, many perfumes I find this unique contrary to other opinions (all entitled) it has long silage too. Mmmm just smelt again, nice…….
Update! Now it smells like an apple flower (if that even exists!) getting even better!!!!
Update! Settles beautifully!

Joyous, fun, clean. Suitable for young ages. Very enjoyable to wear but not a unique scent. Your shower gel or any of your cosmetics may be smelling like this.
understorm – :
I visualise swans when I smell tis scent. Watery and white. I tried to like it but it’s a bit meh.
footbit – :
It smells “clean” like when you just got out of the shower, like if you had used a very strong shampoo. And as somebody says it does smell like Sedal for curly hair… Tough not exactly like it, but almost the same…
Partizan62 – :
Ralph was one of my very first perfumes as a teenager. It does hold a lot of memories for me as I wore it exclusively through some formative years so I may be a bit biased. I may not wear this scent as much anymore and even though my bottle is over 10 years old, it still smells the same and lasts just as long. They really dont make then like they used to. I feel like not many people wear it anymore so it has actually become unique again. The freesia and magnolia in this are so delightful. It has just enough apple in it to keep it young and fresh. I think that younger girls would still enjoy wearing this scent and it is literally a breath of fresh air compared to the candy sweet caramel floral bombs popular today.
andrew_ter – :
One of my favorite perfumes. It smells so romantic.

Se parece mucho a la colonia de adida( la rosada ) y también a un antiguo body mist de victoria secret que se llama appletini! Pero es olor es mejor y dura mas. Me encanta !!

This perfume has the EXACT frutiness of all the Escada annualy limited edition summer scents
diman_orsk1988 – :
It’s nothing special. Another fragrance that I find juvenile, more appropriate for a young woman to wear between the ages of 14-17.
It reminds me of the Britney Spear fragrance “Curious.”
firina2006 – :
I love it. I got it when it first came out as a gift. always got so many complements. Till this day I still use it every now and Again. Never get tired of it. Still smells lovely, clean and fresh. Just so unique. Still get complements EVERY time I wear this fragrence. Last ALL day on me for sure more than 8 hours, and I can still smell it. They say its for younger women early 20s… but you’re only as young as u feel. This will always be a must have in my collection.
They say Paris hilton smells like it, and I can definitely smell the similarities but to me Paris Hilton will always smell like a doop, a cheap version of a wannabe Ralph Lauren.

Such a lovely scent! Fresh and soft with flowers and fruits.I could wear this any time at year,summer or winter,it’s doesn’t matter. Not too overpowering,but last long at skin (about 10 hours). One of my favorites!

But sometimes being ‘nice’ just isn’t enough for me. Well, don’t you worry, I’m not breaking up with you. It’s just that I would like to keep it casual between us.

Oops, got to go. I’ve got a date with someone more exciting. See you when I see you!

This fragrance is a real winner. A very feminine, sweet, fruity floral (much more fruity than floral). It’s just fun in a bottle. Be warned, this is an attention getter. You will be stopped and asked what you are wearing.
(Note: this stuff is shockingly similar to Escada’s Rockin’ Rio and J.Lo’s Live Luxe. The difference is in the details. First of all Ralph is a much more “powerful” fragrance. Waaay better longevity and sillage. Second, Ralph just has a more expensive “feel” to it. It’s to
