Lucky You for Women (2000)
by Lucky Brand

I love this fragrance, even though it is too young for me. I smelled it on someone else at a mall once and could not believe it when she told me what it was. I immediately went to my local department store (like a WalMart) and purchased a small bottle for $6.50. Unbelieveable how much I like this cheap stuff. It doesn't last long, but that's ok as I normally where it around the house, anyway. Another reviewer nailed it about smelling like a clean, all-American Girl-Next-Door. And, I think it actually smells pretty sexy on me, even though it is so sweet. The drydown is powdery, and maybe soapy? But, for some reason it works well with my chemistry. It's not "interesting" per se, but just smells really good on me.

This is quite soft and powdery, but a bit too sweet for me. It's nice though. Kind of bland and boring. Too plain to rave about really. It was fruity which may explain why it was sweet to me.

This smells like citrus and baby powder with a slight fruity sweetness to it. Very simple and fresh, long lasting, unoffensive, and a great standby.

A very straightfoward, recognizeable scent. Fairly light, but it has staying power; it definitely gets my attention whenever I smell it on someone!

A fruity floral with a base of sandalwood, amber and musk. The foral notes are aquatic and blend nicely with the powdery sandalwood in the base. My daughter likes this one in summer when she's not sure what to wear...I guess it's her good ole' standby! For me, it comes off too young. Along the lines of Tommy Girl. Light and fresh. A bit soapy. I'm really sort of in between on this one. I guess I can understand its appeal, but it's just not for me.

When my wife wears this I want to assault her in the nicest way. This scent makes two words pop in my head every time I smell it. "Innocent-Sexy". This is the scent of the ubiquitous girl next door in her blue jeans and sneakers. And as a result, this stuff is sex incarnate to me. You can keep your glam and starlets with stockings, girls next door reign. Lucky You resides within an attractive, but understated, pink bottle with the Lucky Brand shamrock embossed into it. It's a crisp floral/fruity sort of scent that's pretty straightforward in it's purpose. I never noticed much evolution in the scent and it pretty much smelled the same on my wife's skin as out of the bottle. The floral notes are of an airy sort that aren't in the least bit cloying like Tresor or White Diamonds. I can detect a fruitiness in it, but the two blend to an almost homogenous bouquet. No, it's not very sophisticated and my 30 year old wife says she feels it's a bit on the "young" side for her. Poppycock! A very clean daytime scent (evening too, if I had my way) that does what it does well without pretension or prissiness. A fine example of the girl next door.
