I'm all for a sulfate-free shampoo/conditioner line and was anticipating being able to purchase it at a corner store instead of a salon at twice the price. What I found, however, was that there were many more additives than I thought should exist in a "natural" product and the smell was very strong. I continued to use it though, because it was not irritating my sensitive skin, until I realized that it actually dried my hair out a bit. So although the shampoo and conditioner were just okay, I won't be purchasing them again.

I thought this spicy scent was for me but as I continued to wear it, I got screaming headaches. The bottle is beautiful and looked very nice on my vanity but it was too much for my nose. I'm sorry I bought it.

Just because everyone on the Sephora website loves this cream, doesn't mean it's for everyone. First, I took one look at the container and I thought, "Thirty dollars? Are you kidding?" It seemed like an awful lot to spend on a bit of cream that you're supposed to use on your body. The smell didn't impress me either. It smelled cheap to me even though it was NOT "Cheap." Hahaha. To be fair, I'm learning a bit that I am getting older, darn it, and maybe certain brands really aren't for me. Anybody have a time machine?:-)

Everybody gave this fragrance such rave reviews, I was determined to get a whiff. Honestly, I was a bit disappointed when I spritzed it because the alcohol smell took a long time to fade. I thought, "Ewww.. This is alcohol and powder." If you like younger, powdery scents, this is for you. I think ultimately it's okay but not classy enough for a mature woman.

I used this on my hands and arms and it was pretty strong so I wouldn't use it as a body lotion again but after I washed up later, the scent lightened to a nice, soft fragrance. And it lasted and lasted. I think I'll use it more sparingly and just dot it on certain places later. At forty dollars, it's a reasonable price for a "perfume" but I wouldn't spread it abundantly on my body. And the bottle is lovely.

It's nice to use a few drops of room oil in the ring and placed on a light bulb. It's much safer that placing a perfumed hankie over the light, which is what we did in High School in the eighties. The heat from the bulb warms the oil and emits a soft scent. I don't like how you must clean or throw away the ring; however, because the oil coagulates and gets gummy when it sits for awhile in an "off" lamp. But there wouldn't be repeat purchase if it were perfect.

I got this from a friend and it's the best scent I've experienced from a "home business" representative. It smells classy, not cheap. I probably won't buy it as I've had bad experiences with home business owners, but if you are a Mary Kay rep, you should try this one. It is warm and delicious. And the bottle is nice too.

I know the eau de toilette is less expensive than the perfume but this really doesn't hold a candle to the real thing. I got the Eau De Toilette once and was shocked that yes it's nice, but it lacked the sexy appeal to me. This one may be okay for the day or for work but I don't get the response from men as I do with dotting the perfume behind my ears.

I bought this for my husband and we both enjoyed the soft, warm scent for a couple years, but I bought such a huge bottle that it took a very long time to use it up. After several years, it turned sour. Yuck. So get a smaller size and enjoy the warm, intimate smell of manly skin. Don't let it sit or you'll pay the price of garden variety drugstore alcohol.
