Like the extremely sour candy which makes me feel nauseated. It has the sweetness with the fruit and orange blossom touches on just right with Woods and other elements, none punching you in the face but done thoughtfully. I do like the packaging for Woman by Ralph Lauren with its cute, gold flip cap, similar in design to Cartier’s Baiser Vole. The minimalist, black and white themed commercial featuring actress Jessica Chastain also makes it clear that this fragrance is being pushed towards the over 25 age group.
It lasts for hours on my skin and there’s not single moment in its development over time that isn’t completely and utterly intoxicating. This perfume, for me, will be the apex of mainstream eau de parfum. I might have to come back to this later, since it is quite new . It is strange how some scents just grow on you. My first impression was literally “Not my cup of tea.” Then I got back to it, once – still not impressed. And then a second time and it has won me over!
If you like Chloé or Pure Grace, I’d say to give this a shot as well. You could wear this to work without offending anyone. On me, it lasts all day, so I really appreciate that. This one I’ll always want in my collection.
This is one of those perfumey smelling perfumes, sort of like those “classic” older fragrances where the notes don’t really smell anything like the actual authentic ingredients. No authentic white flowers or indoles or anything, just a nice perfume-y rendition of them. I’m not a fan of white floral in general in fragrances, especially tuberose, but hands down, this one by far has succeeded its purpose of convincing me otherwise. I started to like tuberose and jasmine NOW, from the moment I was introduced to “Woman” by coincidence. I play-tested this scent in the store while waiting for my husband to pick me up. After years of searching this is the perfume of perfumes.
An icon in the game since 1967, the label’s logo T-shirts, shirts and jumpers take collegiate-cool style to fresh new heights. Shop our Polo Ralph Lauren at ASOS edit for our pick of the brand’s clothing, Polo Ralph Lauren t shirt swimwear and accessories, all with that signature PRL aesthetic. Then there’s an unfortunate jasmine bomb that is set off in the middle of this perfume. I’m stunned to see that jasmine isn’t listed.
