  |  Way too soft and girlie for me. I mean, I even forgot I had it on! Hell, I could barely sniff it! Too floral for me as I like something with a bit more depth and intrigue about it. There's no interest here. Boring. And cheap smelling. But man! Does this stuff come in huge bottles! I've seen it at Beauty Boutique in huge ounces! Yeah, because they're trying to get rid of it! It's so bland, plain, blah, blah, blah. If you don't like strong stuff, this may be it for you, because it's one of the softest I've sniffed. 21 April 2008 |
 |  Soft powdery floral, slightly dated and unmistakably feminine. Definitely demure -- not a frag for the vamp.A great buy, too -- this is what happens when old designer frags stick around 30 years. Ugly bottle, though. 13 January 2008 |

| I love this feminine smelling perfum. It makes me feel very womanly, instead of earthy. 19 December 2007 |
 | Something is terribly wrong with this newer, drug store incarnation of this fragrance. The vintage version was not as spicy, not as overt. The only thing that sang true about this fragrance are the topnotes, but quickly segued to awfully synthetic heart notes, brutish and lacking its clear sweet qualities. It was my mother's favorite. This new version of Oscar smells like my memory of her has been crushed...really sad. 05 December 2007 |
 | I like it. Yes, it is very old-fashioned, "retro", powdery, reminds me of Chanel no5 (similar aldehydic note), I smell some undefiniable dusty flowers (maybe iris + jasmine) and weird, metallic, "dusty" note of effervescent calcium tablets, odour of lime and wet pavement. I don't know why, but this fragrance gives me the unique feeling of safety and relaxation. I like falling asleep with one drop of Oscar on my neck. 21 May 2007 |

| A light golden juice with a dark golden smell, rich, soft, leathery, spicy. It exudes sexuality, experience, sophistication. This lady has been around, seen the elephant, heard the owl. Once she went out with Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra, don't you know. 20 January 2007 |
