Lauren (1978)
by Ralph Lauren

I found this in the back of my perfume drawer this morning. I've had it for years. It smells pretty good to me and my husband seems to like it. Not sure it will ever be one of my really big favorites but it is pleasant enough for a Saturday afternoon.

I wore this thoughout my teenage years back in the 80's. Every friend of mine wore this as well, we were a walking cloud of smell back then. I thought it was a wonderful scent but haven't smelled it for at least 15 years, alright who am I kidding 20 years. Recently, I found a vintage, unreformulated version and boy do I still like this scent, the combination of flowers and greens is still amazing after all these years. I can still smell the carnation and violets.

I've been fighting the urge to buy this, trying to convince myself that it's not my era, too old, reformulated etc, etc. However, even the new watered-down version is so much more interesting than 90% of perfumes today. The scent is delightfully off-kilter and utterly different from the fruity florals that are popular with young women today.

I'll be picking it up, very likely, next time I see it in the store.

Been my favorite for years, i couldn't do without it, its a classic, not over powering, just right.

I was given this as a gift. Smells like mashing your nose into a dandelion. Lasted well, and other people loved it. Very unusual, I definitely want another bottle. Very dry. I'll edit the review once I get another bottle.

I love this fragrance. I wore it in the early to mid 80's, and it always drew compliments from both sexes. The RL fragrances that came after this one cannot hold a candle to it. Also, the bottle, both shape and colour, are a joy to behold.

I am suprised to read hear that this fragrance is still in production as I have not seen it in the shops [in England] since about 1993. If anyone can tell me where I can buy a bottle, please do! I'd also be interested to know what this fragrance's constituents are, and who who created this wonderful scent......
