Elizabeth Arden Red Door Aura Eau de Toilette

Delicious!

Now this is not what I expected! This opens up with a musky, bitter orange. It evolves into a creamy floral pudding, with nuances of just a hint of raspberry poking through the jasmine. I had given up on Elizabeth Arden ever being anything more than a "has been" in the perfume department. Well, this moves it from the drugstore bargain bin, right back to the cosmetics counter. This is totally wearable. The longevity is great, about six hours plus. The silage is intrusive, yet not offensive. It is a playful, yet somehow sexy scent as well. No need to switch scents between work and a night out, this is great for both.
