   |  This fragrance also falls into the category of "female classics" I would love to smell on more of my female friends and acquaintances. Not for everyone, since, I presume, this one is targeted at a more mature audience, heavy floral, slightly aldehydic, almost leathery dry-down. 07 June 2009 |
   | Delicate enough to wear at anytime, this I feel, will remain a classic fragrance. When I first smelt it, it reminded me of the smell plastic dolls had back in the 60's, but over time I have grown to love it. What I find is best about it is that it's a great all rounder without being overwhelming. 15 March 2009 |
 | A guilty pleasure this one. I work in a charity store and came across it sitting on a shelf in the shop toilet. One of our volunteers wears it and I quite liked it so decided to give it a go. It ain't subtle that's for sure. The sillage could knock you off your feet at ten paces, but blow me down, I like it. I read a review elsewhere where someone describes the calming/comforting aspects of this fragrance and I had the same response to it. It makes me feel, well...nice. And further investigation reveals you can buy it for about £7 in Semi-Chem. (UK drug store) Price isn't always a reflection of quality. Case in point - many of the Cacharel fragrances. 22 February 2009 |
 | Notes according to Fragrantica: The composition starts of casually, light and fresh, including aldehydes, bergamot, green notes, neroli and pineapple. The classical floral heart is composed of jasmine, orange blossom, rose, tuberose and ylang-ylang. Oriental base includes cinnamon notes, civet, musk, opoponax, vetiver, sandalwood and vanilla. It's one of the first perfumes I discovered in my eary teens and smells wonderful for the price. 12 January 2009 |
 | I also like Vanderbilt. I also noticed when I bought a bottle of Extravagance by Givency that it smelled alike to me. The notes might explain it. Vanderbilt: Top notes: Aldehyde, bergnot oil, green notes, lavender, orange blossom, pineapple. Middle notes: Carnation, Jasmine, orris, rose tuberrose, ylang-ylang Base notes: Cinnamon, civet, musk, opoponax, sandal, vanilla & vetiver. Extravagance by Givency notes are: Top notes: Green madarin, Tagete, Pink peppercorn. Middle notes: Jasmine, orange blossom, violet leaves Base notes: Sandlewood, cedarwood, musk, ambrox. Personally, I think Extravagance is more refined and I perfer it, but if you can't find it, choose Vanderbilt. 05 November 2008 |

|  Cheap and not particularly impressive, but at the price it isn't too bad when you consider all the crap being sold as prestige fragrance. Quite presentable.21 October 2008 |
