I got this in a swap and thought I would love it based on the notes. I have sofia and I’ve heard that love is fantastic so I thought I couldn’t go wrong. This definitely isn’t a bad fragrance but I feel like it doesn’t smell like anything. If I can’t find someone to swap I will probably use for layering. Very low sillage and longevity.

Citrus, berry, jasmine. I dont get pineapple. Safe, not fantastic, but pretty. Sort of reminds me of one of the citrusy Ange Ou Demon or Le Secret. Slight Cyphre or Jimmy Choo patchouli. I’d buy a gift set after Christmas sale.

I’ve had my eye on Tempting for a good 6 to 8 months.
I finally picked up the body-mist at Walmart.
Tempting opens with mouth watering citrus and faint sweetness while offering a crisp musk. I do not detect any vanilla. The only thing I detect is citrus, musk, and a diet patchouli nuance.
Much to my surprise, this fragrance is nearly identical to Believe by Britney Spears. The ONLY difference is that Tempting has less sweetness and there is no “creamy makeup” nuance that I catch in Believe.. Even the “diet patchouli” found in the reformulated bottles of Believe is present in Tempting (even if it’s not listed).
At the end of the day, I like Tempting more than Believe. Tempting is more unisex than Believe due to the muted sweetness of the citric notes.

This one smells like something my mom used to wear when I was little. It starts with a beautiful pineapple blast that lasts for 15 seconds and then it turns pretty masculine. Then after an hour it dries down to something kind of retro. Not bad, but not my cup of tea.
vadym – :
I own Sofias first perfume and her second one Love. I absolutely LOVE both of those and can’t recommend them enough. They smell expensive, classy and last really well. This one I just can’t even like! It’s weak, smells like a weird pineapple and is gone on my skin so fast. Sorry but this for me is a fail but I strongly suggest trying her first two as they are amazing!
Alex26 – :
This is a passion flower pineapple scent that slightly lingers, at least 8 hours, on clothes. I wore it for about a couple weeks on and off and found it to be somewhat linear; not tempting. The bottle is OK; almost tacky. I think Sofia’s best perfume is her first, Sofia.

I agree with previous reviewers that this has a pineapple cocktail in a hot nightclub during the summer kinda vibe. It very refreshing and very summery but also it has a sexy vibe, which makes me think of nighttime appropriate. The pineapple and alcoholic drink dominance makes me think of nightclub because it feels young and sexy. I don’t see this as a tropical fragrance just a summery fragrance if that makes any sense…
I think it lasts a pretty decent amount of time if applied liberally like I do with all of my celeb/Cheapies.
I am happy to add this to my summer wardrobe cause I was previously getting my pineapple fix with Jlo Live which is mostly pineapple upside down cake and completely misses the mark when I’m looking for something refreshing.
beibiaMop – :
That initial blast of pineapple is enough to keep me refreshing this throughout the day. Then the florals join the party and it is delightful. I will say that the first day I tried it I sprayed my skin. It turned woody pretty quickly and I didn’t love it. The next day I sprayed my clothes and I LOVED IT! The pineapple stuck around a lot longer and I kept fanning my top so I could get another whiff of it. Lovely. And an awesome deal. $13 at Burlington for 100ml. Although, I will add that its longevity is not as good as Sofia Vergara’s other fragrances.

Have you ever smelled JLO’s fragrance “Deseo?”
If you have…there’s no need for this.
Is the fragrance itself good?? Yes. Beautiful as a matter of fact. But loses half of it’s points on lack of originality and copying another fragrance that’s been on the market for years. Poor JLO hahaha. First she has Nicki Minaj BLATANTLY duplicate Miami Glow with her hideous Pinkprint bottle lol. What is it with celebrities remaking JLO’s creations in hideous bottles? First Nicki…and now Sofia.
This fragrance is literally JLO’s Deseo in an uglier bottle.
Very summery. It’s a very woody smelling fragrance with a lot of pineapple. It’s gorgeous. But JLO’s been here, done that already. And again…Deseo’s bottle is MUCH prettier than this weird one. C’mon Sofia! Seriously with this??
rjhieyjd – :
This is straight-up sweet, fruity-floral. It’s piña, rather than citrus which is nice. It’s a bit in the vein of Bath and Body Works style scents – fresh and linear with easily recognizable notes. Tempting is pleasant, and it would easily fit into most celeb-scent lines. Is it Britney? Jessica? Swifty? J-Lo? Could be any one of them.
That said, it’s likable and it will be good for days at the beach and brunch with friends. It’s light, low sillage and short-lived. It’s a good choice when you’re thinking body spray versus parfum.
Overall, it’s a bit of a disappointment in comparison to her first scent, Sofia. That was also a sweet-fruity, but an exceptionally well done one.
HotaHyday – :
It smells more floral than fruity. But it does eventually set to a soft (still floral) fruit. I want to claim it as a classic scent though when testing on the paper strips it proved to set apart from classics.. maybe because you get that fruitiness within the dry down 🙂 Perfect balance between light and dark notes ..can wear anywhere when used wisely.
Daine – :
Wow. I am in shock and so glad I ordered this. It is literally one of the nicest perfumes I ever smelled. I never expected it to be this good. It’s smells sexy as hell and expensive. Like a high end perfume and a good one! I love this so much. I hope it never gets discontinued though I better stock up! To give an idea of what it smells like is hard maybe like Deseo but a lot nicer. 10/10

This juice is amazing!!! Absolutely sexy, tempting and mature. Tempting is like the mature big sister to Escada fragrances. It manages to have a truly authentic fresh pineapple smell with a nice fresh undertone of white flowers blowing in the wind. When I wear this I just imagine myself in Jamaica on the beach on a hot hot day eating pineapples. It is slightly sweet but not even close to that sugary cotton candy sweet you get from a lot of celeb scent. This is truly stunning. It is also very reminiscent of jimmy choo flash but I much prefer this. Sofia Vergara really knows what she is doing when it comes to perfumes. I have all her fragrances and love almost all of them!
Update: I really hate to say it but this has become a scrubber for me. After the first couple hours of wearing it I start to feel really sick. I’ve tried it 3 times and have had this experience all 3 time. I hate that this is happening because I do like the scent but for some reason my body isn’t happy with this one : (
Aeronisor – :
I must say this “SMELLS SEXY AS HELL”
It is casual, juicy fresh tart sour pineapples mingle with Passion Flower & vanilla… Smells close to Deseo by Jennifer Lopez or a less sweet energetic Dreams by Mariah Carey… It smells so darn good I swear
There’s a confidence in this fragrance that the ad pin points exactly basically you’re smelling what you see in the ad…
This could be unisex since the top notes well pineapple / mandarin blossom keep it so energetic and vibrant and the florals are there but moderate…
On skin I get the pineapple Passion flower vanilla and sandalwood… On clothes Pineapple, caramel musk & vanilla
DubVatantab – :
It’s a delicious sorbet of goodness.
Let me start by giving notes to this beauty. The describe notes here on frag, do not give the complete description.
Fresh Cut Pineapple, Mandarin Blossom, Juicy Acai Berry, Colombian Passion Flower, Purple Vanilla Orchid, Star Jasmine, Creamy Sandalwood, Vanilla, and Caramelized Musk.
The opening is very prominent with the pineapple, you start to get the development of the blossoms and berries, which give a very fresh and aromatic presence. The vanilla orchid gives a soft smoothness with a pinch of powder. The jasmin in my opinion is very faint, but still a tad noticeable. The sandalwood gives a nice warmth, along with the vanilla. In the base you have the very unique note of caramelized musk. It gives off a nice sweetness, yet suductive feeling. As with most Sofia Vergara perfumes, the projection, longevity, and silage is exceptional. I have all her scents now. I’m not much of a celeb scent kinda person, but besides Sarah Jessica Parker, Sofias perfume line is quality and greatness!
Just an FYI, the actual note in this is caramelized musk, not just musk.

I blind bought this at Kohls. It was in a gift set for next to nothing! So I figured hey if I hate it I can gift it. I actually really like it. For a smaller bottle I will probably shred through it easy. I find myself wanting to wear it again. Very clean sharp scent. It lasted on me I’d say a good 10 hours. Where I could actually smell it. Strong the first 3 hours. Close silage to the skin and body and holds to clothes well. It reminded me in the middle tones of Britney Spears’ “Believe” which is a heavy patchouli scent with fresh greens and some lemon. This has that greens and fruit scent. But there is a floral top note that really permits the longevity of the soft floral freshness. I noticed when it was drying down and dying off me in late 8-10 hour wear it smelled kind of warm amber/vanilla ish. So for a cheap by it wore wonderfully and chemistry for me as a male was complex. Not a bad blind buy for how complex it boasted and the enjoyable smell!
pyg968Unlogrere – :
I don’t go by the notes listed in the ad. ad. blind bought it. To me this was a Burst of pineapple mixed with “that note that is in the drydown of Antonio Banderas blue Seduction for men. I would say it is fresh I guess. I’ll defntly be wearing it but I’m not crazy about it. All in all it is better than Love but not better than Sofia first perfume. Yet I feel it’s unique and safe scent. Maybe it will grow on me. I’m glad it’s not a candy vanilla factory like most celeb fragrances.
UPDATE: after wearing this for a week I fallen for it. It’s something new. The use of fresh pineapple, then it dries down to a strange “your own skin” serene sandalwood pretty smell. It is different and not offensive. Sofia redeemed herself as I thought Love was too candyish sweet. Sofia Vergara Sofia was a masterpiece for me. & With Tempting Sofia will be headed back to the Fifi Awards.

I am fast becoming a fan of Sofia Vergara’s perfumes. I have Sofia and Love Sofia fragrance mists. Found a gift set at Kohl’s today and it’s a lovely tropical floral scent. I smell the Pineapple, Star Jasmine, and Sandalwood. If you like Escada’s tropical scents, you’ll enjoy this one, too.

From NYC: My friend and I decided to go to the Duane Reade at lunch today. I saw the gift set of this for $20.00 out with other holiday sets. It was the LAST one – so I grabbed it! I had read reviews on this and smelled a swatch of it in a magazine and was intrigued. Well, we came back to work and took it out right away to put it on and it’s so BEAUTIFUL!! So light and fresh and it so gives a happy-skip-in-the-day feeling 🙂 We both, in our opinions, don’t smell the vanilla, but more of the floral notes and the pineapple; in such a good yummy way! Actually, totally reminds me of Miss Dior Blooming Bouquet on me but without the cost. I would recommend this for any age and for day or night!
Lenskij1982 – :
I really like this one. One of the other reviewers said you get a happy feeling when you smell it. That is so true. Its another well blended and well made perfume.
ivan2659 – :
I finally got around to trying this fragrance yesterday. I blind bought it because I love Sofia’s other 2 scents. I absolutely love it! The first reaction I had was that it made me feel happy. Sounds weird, but it is true! I think the pineapple is blended well with the other notes. I bought this at Perfumania. Another winner from Sofia!
romashkadru – :
Pineapple! So much pineapple!
On the initial spray it’s all fresh and juicy pineapple. It was only at the drydown stage that I could tell there was any jasmine or vanilla.
I think the paring of such shy delicate notes such as passion flower and orchid with the much more boisterous pineapple could have been delightful-but ended up being too overpowering in the end.
Vectra – :
Omg, the notes… I wonder how and if it could be bad with those notes. Would love to try it, msg me if you (I doubt it) have this for swap

Perfumania.
First impression very perfumey, vintage old school, alike her previous two.
Will have to give it another go, wasn’t crazy about it, loved the others.
In all fairness I did catch a whiff of a very pretty scent a little later however
I had tried a few others after testing hers.
