  |  I passed by this perfume without noticing it for years because I never look for fragrance at the Prescriptives counter. Rather, I am obsessesed with their excellent line of liquid foundation almost guaranteed to match any skin color. There sat Calyx. I finally sprayed it on, and it was wonderful. It rushed through some grassy, green notes and settled into a big white peach and apricot aroma that was delicious. Ordinarily I'm not a fruit scent wearer, but I fell in love with this. Big, round, sweet-tart aromatic fruits in a sparkling, green, mossy base. Excellent.05 May 2008 |
 | I loved this fragrance intensely! It's now hard to buy in Australia. Grassy, spritely, sharply sweet. It suited me on days that I was busy having fun. 20 March 2007 |

| Total strangers and mostly men used to compliment me on Calyx when I wore it regularly, in the 90s -- surprising, as it doesn't seem like such an alluring scent. I still wear it now sometimes, in the summer, but there is something very harsh about the way it starts out that makes me hesitate. 12 August 2006 |

| I stopped wearing this more than a decade ago and just found it again... I rather like it-- it's refreshing and doesn't get stuck inthe nose like a lot of the floraly fragrances do.. It's accessible and casual... 04 May 2006 |

| The most fruit-packed fragrance ever created! Depending on what source you check for notes, Calyx contains most if not all of the following: passion fruit, mango, grapefruit, mandarin, guava, papaya, apricot, peach, melon, raspberry. Pretty much a cornucopia of summer fruits - and it does smell that way, very much so. It's a fun fragrance but not completely frivolous; the moss in particular helps bring out just enough sophistication to keep this from being strictly for the pre-teen crowd. A good fragrance and one that's still viable now, though I will always associate it with smelling like the late 80s/early 90s when I wore it far more often than I do today. 16 September 2005 |
