Description

Tuberose bomb on a base of musky amber and wood. Very strong….a perfume with presence. I used 2 sprays. Less is more with this perfume. It has considerable sillage and lasting power…..a few hours. I bought it because it was so cheap that I couldn’t resist and I love other fragrances by Steve Demercado. I must say that it is beautifully blended and stands out as something unique from other flowery perfumes. It really has grown on me especially when I am in the mood for something sweet. Again to really appreciate this beauty…Less is more.

Nice floral scent. Not everyone’s cup of tea. Classy, smells a lot pricier than it actually is. My first thought was “Is there such a thing like “warm floral”?”..
Enfoneloodose – :
At just under $6 for 1 oz shipped from Ebay, this one’s a steal. It has a floral-beachy vibe that, unlike the fruity-beachy scents, isn’t juvenile. I really only smell the fruits in the initial spray before the drydown. Then, the white floral and sand accords become more apparent. There’s actually a pretty distinct honeysuckle note that I’m assuming is a result of the tuberose. I enjoy honeysuckle, so I was pleasantly surprised by this.
If you liked the white florals in Paris Hilton’s Siren, you’ll probably like this. If you’re looking for a summery, beachy fragrance that isn’t fruity, this one’s definitely worth checking out!

Mines’ got a weird minty vick’s vaporub smell, maybe I think it’s gone bad?
grafmozdok – :
Let me start by saying I really like this perfume, truly. But to my nose it is just all amber, wood and sand with a some light tuberose. It’s sexy and comforting at the same time. I love to wear it to bed. But with a name like “Tease”… I was expecting flirty fruits and alluring florals with some woody, sandy notes. It’s not what I expected at all, but I do enjoy it.
joubpavabal – :
Wow this is good apple tuberoose mysterius looove but not the drydown it makes me want to wash it of
vovakuzmin3 – :
This purple gem opens with a vibrant burst of fragrant jasmine, followed very closely by the gorgeous tuberose. And it’s not a harsh, synthetic tuberose either. It’s soft, mellow, and creamy and it nestles itself nicely in with the gardenia. All the notes blend quite well but the tuberose is still very prominent in the drydown. If you don’t care for white florals or tuberose, this frag might be too much. But honestly it’s not a heavy, asthma-inducing scent like you might think. I think it’s sultry and sexy, but also office safe if you use a light hand.
stasya18-4 – :
To my nose, tuberose is more dominant than jasmine here. It was more of something rather “cloying”, not soft. Not so terrible but not my favorite. Wish that I could smell everything else listed in here too (no apple, no peach, no frangipani, no amber…nor sand).
And yes, this one does remind me of Michael Kors Very Hollywood a lot, if not almost identical.
andr20099 – :
Fragrance snobs would love this if they smelt it without knowing who it is by first. I can’t stand fragrance snobs, parlux makes Paris Hilton’s fragrances along with Vince Camuto, guess, Jessica simpson and Kenneth Cole so stop judging if you aren’t buying Dior or Chanel theses fragrances are manufactured under a lot of the same companies. Any ways on to tease, tease is s fruity floral but in a fresh sweet floral sense it does smell like kk very Hollywood but do I dare say I like Paris Hilton better, yes I do. It’s very summery and you can’t go wrong with it if you love white florals.
oswarettolix – :
To me the woody/sandy notes are most prominent with the lovely tuberose in the background. I can’t pick up any fruity notes, just wood, sand, white flowers and a hint of amber. Gorgeous.
This one is soft, smooth and sexy. Not necessarily what you would expect when you see the name Paris Hilton. Best for cool evenings though I do often wear it to bed.
Doomklouse – :
Tease is a very different fragrance from other Paris Hilton offerings but it is really nice. It smells very classy and sophisticated but I wouldn’t buy this unless you love tuberose. I agree that this smells very similar to Michael Kors Very Hollywood with that added sweetness that the original Michael Kors doesn’t bring. It does also smell like Kim Kardashian’s first fragrance too. If you like these two you will like Tease.
sintex566 – :
This is a nice tuberose with a crisp fruity opening. My favorite of Paris Hilton.
strog456 – :
Yup, I do smell the RESEMBLANCE to M KORS VERY HOLLYWOOD & KIM KARDASHIAN.
Goonyduby – :
I find this fragrance very similar to The original Paris Hilton in that both have very loud, albeit, synthetic fruit notes that are like bold Apple, melon, or whatever and both fragrances have this dark vibe to it which makes my mind instantly jump to nighttime appropriate as far as situational categorization. Both are kinda boozey & slightly reminicent of alcoholic beverages and allude to “college-age sexy on a summer night” at the beach (hot sand accord) Or at a bar (original).
adidas68 – :
This smells much more expensive than your typical celebrity perfume. Opening of apple, peach and tuberose fairly quickly settles to a sexy tuberose and jasmine with some sort of sandy undertone that keeps it from becoming cloying. Very feminine and womanly, great on hot summer evenings.

You’re such a tease!
Notes I like in this fragrance
Apple & Peach
Plumeria Frangipani Jasmine Amber
I’ve been a Paris Hilton fan and social media follower since as long as I can remember. She’s the reason that TMZ was established in the first place! She might not be as ‘unintelligent’ as the ‘dumb’ blonde image would suggest and though not a very communicative heiress, she has an astute mind for business. And that business is fragrance. She has successfully commercialized over 20 fragrances. This is in no way related to the family business which is Hilton hotel operations. This is her own business she has herself launched. This perfume is considered a white floral for women and is thought to be Paris’ first mature fragrance. She now has 2 other more ‘adult’ fragrances with Gold Rush and Gold Rush For Men. She has developed a nose and can differentiate between youthful sugary candy scents for girls and floral for women. This is the latter.
Starts off with fruit notes. They’re pleasant enough and quite tropical and summery. There’s peach and apple, and citrus. Smells delicious and fresh but it’s a deep juicy fruit not Viva La Juicy fruit candy. This is mostly a peach scent to me. And then it settles into white flowers of tuberose and frangipani also known as plumeria the official state flower of Hawaii. The flower is part of the lais they give you when you arrive at the airport. So yes it’s tropical-floral feminine sophisticated. Very rarely do you find perfumes like this with nods to something like Jungle Gardenia only more fruity. Even with the mature white flowers, especially that tuberose, this is wearable for young girls today because it does have a soft subtlety and never goes overboard. This is still a fruity floral.
In the final stages of the performance of this perfume, I get that beach vibe everyone gets. Smells of soft sand like when you are laying back on a blanket on the beach over sand. This is a very relaxed Hawaii California or Florida scent. You’re wearing sunglasses and a bikini and you’re drinking a fruity cocktail with an umbrella in the glass and you are basking in the summer sun watching the people at the beach. This is a G rated version of Giorgio Beverly Hills and far less vulgar. Sweet and fruited-floral with a warm sand and also amber, warm amber, evocative of sunlight. The perfume is also very long lasting for a Paris Hilton and has excellent sillage as well. This is wearable as a day and evening fragrance but it is clearly meant to be worn with like halter top dresses, mini dresses cocktail dresses and beach wear or ‘beach party’ wear. Absolutely gorgeous and if you like white florals and amber, sexy and lady-like scents, check it out.
The price is too good to pass up too. It’s cheaply priced but the fragrance is not cheap as in bad trust me. I am loving it and can’t believe I had not given this a chance. Kudos to Paris Hilton or whomever formulated this scent for her. I can smell this on her, maybe just a spritz on her bosom. This is a very pretty and elegant scent for an elegant woman. Good stuff. Good stuff.

So I went ahead and blind bought this because it is so highly compared to Kim Kardashian EDP (which I love) but this one seems very off. In the initial spray I can see where it may give off the Kim K. vibe, but after a couple minutes it settled into my skin and gave me something akin to sweet urine. After the urine smell settled down a bit, I thought it started to smell very… mature. I know many Fragranticans are opposed to age constraints on fragrances but this is just my opinion. Tease is not young and fresh the way its competitor Kim Kardashian is which really surprises me because most of Paris’ fragrances are very sweet and zippy. I wasn’t expecting a fruit bomb out of this like her others but I was expecting something a little more playful. To me this is just very thick and odd smelling. Sorry to all who love it — as I said, this is just MY take on it. Luckily I scored a 3.4 oz tester on fragrance.net for only $9 so I didn’t take a huge loss on this one. Still, I’m learning my lesson not to blind buy.
Lunatiq – :
Got this as a gift, broke me in a rash upon trying the lotion. Don’t like or dislike it…it’s just there. Almost very vicky secret vibe to it. It’s just bland. Nothing special, nothing offensive either. No distinct notes.
fuckingboy – :
I had a bottle of tease last year and i really liked it maybe even love! Lately I’ve been on a anamalic white floral kick and feel the desire to buy this again. On my skin it opens with a burst of strong meaty gardenia and vanilla. Next the smell of sweaty sexy bodies mixed with tuberose and jasmine come out and i smell apple. Theres also a unique sand note that I’ve never experienced in other perfumes before. It gets muskier as it wears. Very sexy and mature fragrace but still fun. Longevity was great on my skin and sillage was huge! Yup, im buying another bottle . My obsession to have it again gets stronger as i write ! Lol 😉
BTW, imo it smells nothing like kim Kardashian or Michael kors. Totally different . The only common ground is they are all white florals.
EvilMan – :
Yesssss Deb! Definitely reminiscent of Bora Bora by Liz C! This is a little it smoother and not as in your face but definitely a sister to Bora bora! I have blind bought a 3.4 bottle and have yet to use it fully! I will update on longevity and sillage later!
doer – :
EdP: Tuberose, peach, frangipani and apple 🙂 it’s rich with a normal lasting power.
Milqep – :
In the same league with Kim Kardashian signature however tease has a note in their that makes it better. It may be the sand note. Tease is a pretty tuberose gardenia scent and the bottle suits it’s smell. I like tease!
lucifer25bkru – :
Tease sits quite close to the skin, and it’s very tightly furled. When I first spray it, it opens with cut wet stalks, like spring flowers (daffodils etc) have. A few hours in I can smell the sand, I think. Not that I would have picked ‘sand’, but having it listed in the notes I can smell wet sand. The floral is very understated and soft.
vados23list – :
I guess it could be the lush tuberose, but this perfume brings out the diva in me. My hubby who doesn’t usually have opinions about my perfumes took notice said this smelled really pretty! So I wear it on date nights:) I personally don’t have anything else like it. This is just such a lush, pearly, tuberose/jasmine floral with a bit of a tart apple and bergamot zip edging it and keeping it fun and playful-so I am really enjoying this gorgeous fragrance this summer. Story:
In the backseat on a road trip I used a dot of this lotion on my hands and a second later everyone in the car said “WHAT smells so good in here?!”
The lotion is true to the perfume and really increases longevity. Without the lotion I get 4-5hrs. With the Tease lotion base it lasts closer to 6-7 on me. It is smooth, elegant and refreshing at the same time.
I was very sad to use my last drop of BBW velvet tuberose lotion last summer, and this, to me, is In that family but with a brighter opening! Score. I’m not sure if I am imagining the sand part, but that’s ok. This perfume helped me discover the beauty of white florals in perfumes, and I think I will sample more in this family.
Alva – :
Paris Hilton Tease is definitely more mature then her other fragrances….her other fragrances especially hieress and paris hilton appeal to teen angers and 20 somethings ….while i feel this one is more sophisticated. It reminds me of Kim kardashian Glam…because of the Turberose, its very floral, very feminine and fancy….you can wear this on a fancy occasion, like a fancy dinner party or even to a wedding. its also very fresh and clean smelling…the sand note adds a very unique quality i have never smelled in a perfume before, i thought it would be weird but i like it…i just dont think i understand why someone would put sand in perfume but its ok.
kme130speagoessenda – :
Very sexy and seductive. Not for little girls! On me the jasmine and woods (close to sandalwood) really stand out, and I only get a little of the tuberose. The top notes are citrus and peachy which are very brief. I would consider this a good date night scent, or possibly anytime in fall or winter. Too heavy for summer days.
panfilov-av – :
I bought a small bottle of this to test– as I was extremely curious about how the scent of hot sand could be captured. OMG, it REALLY does have a strong note of hot sand at the beach on a beautiful warm day! Amazing!! Very alluring scent and great purple bottle.

Fragrance Review For Tease Paris Hilton
Top Notes Bergamot Peach Apple
Middle Notes Tuberose Frangipani Jasmine
Base Notes Woods Sand Amber
I avoided this perfume like the plague! She launched this perfume dressed up as Marilyn Monroe and when asked what makes this perfume so good and why she’d recommend it she simply stated “It’s hot. It’s sexy.” lol I’m not a fan of Paris Hilton who is famous for “doing nothing” and the dictionary definition of a spoiled heiress. Remember that sex video? She was on the phone the whole time? LOL I have tested and smelled Paris Hilton fragrances before but couldn’t get into them. They are mostly sweet fruity floral girly girl perfumes with weak sillage and longevity, just body mists. Siren, Dazzle, Heiress, gag. They are cheaply made and don’t impress. I’m pretty sure she doesn’t wear them herself. But wait a minute. What is this? This is a beautiful fruited floral with maturity and more character. It’s probably the only Paris Hilton perfume other than Fairy Dust that smells more of an old fashioned classic gardenia. This is a white floral scent of tuberose and gardenia, fragrant diva flowers, creamy, clean and beautifully fragrant. This is all about those flowers so you have to enjoy floral fragrances to wear this. However despite the maturity, it’s also youthful. The peach and apple are very delicious and not at all like fruit shampoo. Just a ripe peach, very sexy peach. The same kind of peach you’d get in an Elizabeth Taylor perfume. The sand note and frangipani are tropical and take you to the beach. Since it clearly takes you to a warm beach wearing your bikini you can take this fragrance with you to the beach or to the pool in a resort. It’s very much a vacation perfume. Smells like Hawaii or Florida, or the Caribbean the Bahamas. This is also probably the heaviest longest lasting of the Paris Hilton perfumes. This is on you all day. It throws great sillage but it’s not attacking anyone’s noses either. At times however it does turn into something you find in celebrity and popular scents that have white flowers like Kim Kardashian’s debut scent and Michael Kors Hollywood as well as Madonna’s Truth or Dare. I would say that this is not as impressive as Madonna’s Truth or Dare which really blew me away. I would still prefer Truth or Dare to this but this is a nice one too. Very easy to wear very sweet and a tad sophisticated because of it’s longevity and sillage. The only reason anyone is really into this perfume is because it does have a longer life. If you enjoy Paris Hilton perfumes that’s fine, but don’t dismiss this one as an old lady perfume or “old Marilyn Monroe” perfume. I don’t find it that much of a Marilyn Monroe classic Hollywood scent at all. The fruity peach and apple do not fit in with the aldehydic white florals of Old Hollywood perfumery. White Diamonds by Elizabeth Taylor is really more of a classic Hollywood dressing room smell as is Hollywood and Hollywood Star by Fred Hayman. This fragrance really does smell more like a more pleasant and modern updated Hollywood by Fred Hayman. I was surprised by this perfume. I wasn’t sure I could enjoy it but I do like to spritz this on me from time to time when the weather is hot. And it is a hot perfume hot hot hot Paris’ favorite word.

What a lovely perfume!
Very grown-up, I purchased this blind and I must admit I was expecting something a bit more girly.
This is a lovely Chypre-Floral, not too sweet, lots of green leafy tang, creamy white flowers and the smell of the ocean in the background.
I can’t smell hot sand but I do pick up a Sunscreen note from all those bodies glistening on the hot sand.
Terrible burst of alcohol on opening but it quickly dies down and as the fragrance warms with your skin the florals bloom.
Very happy with this fragrance, I love it when you purchase something blind and it turns out to be a winner.
gdrden – :
I’ve had this for over a year, worn it during all seasons and weather conditions so I think I can accurately speak about it’s character.
So to begin, this is the only Paris Hilton fragrance I own. I certainly did not buy if for the celebrity image. I purchased it because the reviews online were mostly positive, it was extremely affordable, and I was just beginning to grow my perfume collection.
My verdict is that it’s a nice perfume. It’s not my favorite. I don’t reach for it often but when I’m feeling a classic vibe, I choose this. Like many other reviewers said, I imagine it being a soft white, creamy smell. I don’t visualize smells often, but for this one in particular, I imagine white flower petals on billowing cream silk sheets.
I get a very strong tuberose smell that will actually linger as the perfume is drying down. It’s very strong in the beginning and my favorite part of the perfume is when the florals fade a bit and blend in with the base. I hardly smell any of the top notes on myself and that’s not because of an untrained nose as bergamot and apples are my all-time favorite notes. I also do not find this fragrance to be tropical as some have said, but it’s what I’d imagine a young woman in classic Hollywood times would wear.
I think my favorite thing is the still creamy and pretty dry-down. I’m sitting here writing this review after a long day and the beautiful blend of sands, light woods, and faint white florals is so relaxing. I honestly don’t think any of my other perfumes including designer scents wear this beautifully.
That being said, I am sometimes surprised this isn’t higher on my list of scents. I think it’s just because this scent is so creamy and relaxing. As a twenty-something leading a busy life, I get that extra zest from my citrus and fruity-floral fragrances. But this fragrance is perfect for someone who wants to relax and enjoy life a little more.
sillage: low to moderate after the initial spray which I find very intimate and appropriate for this scent
longevity: depends on the weather conditions but the core lasts at least 3-6hrs (often more) and the base lasts all day usually until washed off
emed – :
Hm. Could it be the composition? I also get Gardenia, not tuberose. I have both in quite a few perfumes. Turns out finding not so into tuberose as I first thought but really dig gardenia (and thought wasn’t for me). My first thoughts were how much I like the creamy white floral here. Hm. Don’t feel floral chypre here. This isn’t sharp at all. Maybe Fragrantica rushed the description on this one? Much more like Elizabeth Taylor’s Diamonds and Emeralds which is an oriental floral. This is a very nice piece. Again, it all and only make sense when I think of it being gardenia. The sweetness between these two notes is very different even though often used together. Tuberose tends to suffocate me while gardenia cloaks in a tropical way reflected here. This gives me that familiar feeling of gardenia and i can see how that is beach and sand. Either way, this is surely more of that old school “granny” perfume every young person is supposed to hate and fear. ha. And why? It’s quite lovely just mature .. i.e., adult. Also more confusion. Tribute to Marilyn? huh? That would have to be more of an aldehyde with citrus, iris and civet .. but who knows what interpretation Paris or her noses used. I don’t think of Marilyn and automatically see beach so much as glamorous 1950’s.
orgatsreern – :
Paris Hilton’s homage to Marilyn Monroe and Old Hollywood. This smells like a day in the life of Marilyn Monroe. In the morning she gets up pours herself some lemon juice (the bergamot) eats her breakfast which consists of coffee, bread and fruits of peaches and apples. If you can quickly detect fruits in the top notes as the fragrance begins to wear on your skin after you spray it you’ll definitely get the fruitiness of apples and peaches. This fruitiness makes me think of summer time, the day time, and the frangipani and sand note take me to the beach. So I visualize Marilyn going to the beach after her breakfast. She drives herself in her pink Cadillac convertible. She lies down on a blanket in the sand and reads a book (yes Marilyn Monroe could read and read a lot of books lol). She is not there as Marilyn Monroe the movie star but as her relaxed casual and true self: Norma Jeanne. She is not at the beach for too long because 20th Century Fox needs her to drive back to the studio to try on the new costumes for her next picture Gentlemen Prefer Blondes and to get her make up done by Max Factor. So her morning at the beach was all she had to enjoy without the pressures of being the blonde bombshell seductress they all think she is. Before long she is in her dressing room putting on powder and perfume that smells of white flowers. The white floral part of the fragrance always takes me to a movie star’s dressing room in Old Hollywood. The white flowers in this fragrance: jasmine and tuberose, are heavy hitters. This white floral heart is where the Paris Hilton perfume turns into an amazing REAL PERFUME scent, nothing like her light body mist type fruity little girly scents. Tease is Paris Hilton’s most mature fragrance and I get the feeling she had nothing to do with the composition. It smells of the old white florals that used to be popular among Hollywood stars (i.e. Jungle Gardenia by Tuvache) and favorites of Gloria Swanson Elizabeth Taylor and Joan Crawford. But this fragrance is also no White Diamonds. White Diamonds is not fruity and remains mostly a spicy white floral smell. Too much for me. The fruity peach in this perfume and the fun frangipani make this wearable for young girls. It IS both fruity and floral the whole way through. Absolutely beautiful, smells so good. I love this perfume and I can’t believe I’m even wearing a Paris Hilton. Smells expensive and though not a Chanel it can pass for an Estee Lauder or Elizabeth Arden.
okunevsv – :
Picked up a 1 oz bottle for $4.99 at TJMAXX (best perfume outlet store, ever, along with Marshall’s) a couple of months ago and I must say, Paris Hilton knows perfumes. So much so, I had to have the 3.4 oz for back up.
This is a smooth, lovely Tuberose fragrance that’s well blended with the other notes. Tuberose is the star, for sure. It smells a lot like retired BBW Velvet Tuberose but not cloying, at all. It smells expensive, too.
I’ve since acquired Paris Hilton Passport to Paris and Passport to South Beach. I just ordered Siren. The only ones I’m not fond of are Fairy Dust and Passport to Tokyo.
Aerohopleneriqnp – :
This is gardenia….not tuberose. Gardenia is my favorite scent in the world followed by roses. This is surely gardenia. …and it’s strong and beautiful. This really does have a beach vibe……kinda has a little bit of a shadow of the perfume Dior dune with the sand accord..could be considered beach but would be fine for work or a board meeting or a date as well.very wearable approachable and womanly. Feminine and clean in the fresh shampoo way…..mostly floral with a clean impression. ..this isn’t at all like Michael kors. Everyone’s going there because it’s a strong white floral but they are not the same. Its a different flower and Michael is almost only tuberose. This one has fragapane and a bit of fruit. This one is white fresh. I have Michael kors scent and love it too but this one is different .it’s one for every age of woman and would be as right on a woman who’s 18 or 80. In my opinion Michael kors is a more mature scent. Michael kors is much stronger. Paris Hilton tease is just a beautiful floral fragrance. I get a strong gardenia and shampooey clean vibe.this one is for all weather and seasons and times of the day or night. Personally I adore Paris Hilton and I think almost everything she does she would actually wear. She’s beautiful and has great taste. This is so nice.
zidoff – :
Such a beautiful white floral scent. On first application the smell is strong and hard to make out what notes are featured. However after a few minutes a beautiful apple, floral concoction opens up. It’s hard to tell what florals are featured however, without looking at the official notes, it’s kinda hard to differentiate what you’re actually smelling.
Fruity and floral and delicate with a dry down of musk. Incredible lasting power also. I really enjoy this perfume.
Ruzz1976 – :
Love it! SO feminine and I love the floral smell. I smell tuberose and jasmine the most.
Definitely Paris’ best. Just such a beautiful smell and it lasts!
KAKA_8_ – :
Yes, yes, YES! and a million times YES! Although it smells a bit ‘commercial’ I still find it to be very sexy and almost flirty! Like most of PH’s perfumes, this one has a youthful feel to it. One of my favs <3
daha – :
One of my favorites from Paris, not only it smells more expensive than what it is but smells divine at least for me. The first thing I smell when applied is the apple and the pear all so fresh, 10 minutes after it turns into beautiful white flowers and after a time I can detect note that may be the sand I hope it’s not my imagination. Amazing perfume that represents sensuality, the color purple and a nice beach all in one, oh and it lasts a lot on me.
zrk014Negeltzex – :
This is a tuberose powerhouse! My first application of two sprays at point blank range certainly overdid it. 1 spray of this beast will suffice!
That said, it is a lovely tuberose, creamy and fresh. I get the beachy vibe that makes it summer friendly (frangipani, fruit and sand), but I think I will also try this in the winter due to its tuberose heft.
EDIT: The solution that works for me with this is a single spray to clothes at two feet range and a very small spritz on wrists if needed. That seems to prevent the thick cloying issue. My STARS, this is a beautifully concocted fragrance!
superdoorlipetsk – :
yes, this is a straight up tuberose perfume, As soon as I smelt it I thought of Michael Kors Very Hollywood, I used to own that fragrance but I always had to wash it off so I gave it away, I actually didn’t remember it until now that my mother-in-law gifted me this. I personally get headaches with strong florals and was expecting to hate this. I don’t hate it, I don’t love it, It’s more wearable than MK very Hollywood for sure, and it doesn’t make me sick.
Nothing much to say other than great dupe for MKVH.
4evgen – :
I love white florals, but this one was just TOO MUCH on me. 2 sprays and I endured it for about an hour, and I had to go scrub it off. I was finally headache-free after having had one all day, and this brought it RIGHT BACK. It’s a beautiful scent, but it quickly became overpowering on me. So much frangipani and tuberose, and nothing else. I was hoping for that hot sand note, but I never got it coming through. I kind of smell like warm tropical floral dryer sheets right now. Thankfully, this one is inexpensive and I can easily gift it to someone.
Strogg13 – :
Pleasantly surprised by this one. As a lover of white florals, I picked it up since it was only $7. Was afraid it was just smell like other tuberose-based stuff I have already, but was intrigued by some of the divergent notes – hot sand??? I have to say, this is one of the few perfumes I own that actually displayed three distinct phases of scent over the course of the day. All perfumes say they’re going to do that, but most only hit one or two. First it was all tuberose, I agree that it comes off a little soapy at points but not unpleasant I thought. Frangipani somewhat there but it’s a shy one. Eventually the sand came through, giving the classic white floral notes an unexpected beachy feel. Then an hour later on the bus I was like hmmm who smells like apples and peaches? Realized it was me. Crazy, since I didn’t smell the fruitiness at all when I first applied. Then by the end of the day…aww, sweet comforting jasmine on my wrist. It was like three different perfumes. Not a fan of Paris and always thought her ‘fumes would be cheap/tacky, but this one was well done. Not bad for $7! Love the purple bottle, too. It’s a solid A.
P.S. Funny that so many compare this to Very Hollywood, since that one is straight up gardenia and there’s no gardenia at all in this one. I own Very Hollywood and i see a slight similarity (both white florals) but this one takes a sudden turn away from the classic white floral pretty early on, while VH stays true to that for the duration.

Exploding with tuberose. Very strong and powerful. Lasts all day long. Very rich and heavy. A little goes a long way! Nice fragrance though…:)
petruxa – :
I love tuberose, but i don’t like the Tease. It’s too artificial to me, and makes me somehow feeling nausea. After 5-10 minutes of usage, i smelled something metallics.. so i gave it to my sister who somehow love it.
ьшлрф09 – :
Where to start with this fragrance. The bottle is very pretty on my shelf. It’s different from most of the other bottles in my collection. The scent itself is very clean and fresh scent, This seems to last about 8 hours on my skin. Not my favourite scent from Paris’s fragrance empire but it is very nice ! The box for this is very simple but very pretty. This gets 7/10 from me xo
kozins62 – :
I bought a set of 4 Paris Hilton scents and this is my favorite out of the 4. It lasts a really long time and smells wonderful but it’s more of a fruity smell to my nose than a floral-although after several hours I can really smell the musk more than anything. My hubby hates floral or fruity perfumes, but he really likes this one. I normally wear spicy orientals because my man likes them, but I myself love a classy floral scent and this is one of my favorites along with MJ Daisy and Prada Candy. I definitely like the price of Tease better. I paid 9.99 for 1 oz at Gordmans.
