Yes, it's a bit of a gimmick as it just turns hot pink within seconds of coming out of the tube. Nevertheless, it's very sheer and if you apply conservatively it will--on fair skin at least--produce a very natural, long lasting and attractive dash of color. There's a reason the tube is so tiny... don't slather it on with a trowel, you'll regret it.

Good color (for my very fair skin) and pleasant texture, but a bit too shimmery--unless your undereye area is perfectly smooth and taut it will probably highlight the bags and wrinkles. I basically use it as a highlighter, but I doubt it's effective if your under eye area needs a lot of help.

I'm amazed nobody else has reviewed this yet! It's a true classic. Green, floral, mossy, light but not too light, Cabotine is very spirited and elegant (even though "cabotine" basically suggests an over-the-top drama queen!) Can't go wrong with this for daytime.

For the days when you're just not up for Angel's in-your-face gourmand scent, Angel Innocent is a much more rounded, balanced, relaxed version. Lighter and more floral, and easier to wear, Innocent still has plenty of personality.

There's no denying this is unbelievably sugary--berries, vanilla, probably a touch of sandalwood... it's like wearing candy, but in a sophisticated way. I find it warm and cheery on an icky winter day, and on my skin it quickly dries down to a soft vanilla/woody note that is very comforting.

This fragrance sums up the 1990s trend of minimalist, nature-oriented florals so well that you wonder why anyone else even bothered. It's not for everyone--despite being distinctly flowery it is not terribly sweet and almost unisex in its freshness--and not for every day and night, as you'll sometimes wish for something a little richer or deeper. Still, an absolute classic and one of a kind.

This used to be so wonderful before they messed with the formula--watery, green yet floral and delicious, with so much depth. Now it's just OK... a forgettable light aquatic floral.

Forget all the brand's other supposedly edgy fragrances--this is the only Burberry you'll ever need. Warm, fruity--almost peach or apricot--notes blend with a more sophisticated oriental base. Luscious, soft and melt-worthy.

The perfect sweet tropical floral. Heavenly frangipani notes.

Not quite as unassuming as its name suggests, but that's a good thing. A discreetly dreamy white floral.
