Look (2008)
by Vera Wang

I can't say that I like this. Look is so unbelievably odd to my nose. I feel as if I've been offended by an overpowering fruity musk.

The apple and litchi make quite a sharp opening, that once settled on the skin, irritates me. I wanted to wash it off as soon as I applied it.

I decided to give this fragrance a chance to develop so I walked around for a bit trying to ignore its strong presence which followed me with an incredible amount of sillage everywhere I went.

The drydown was the only aspect of this scent that I could only just tolerate. I felt uninspired by its mediocre vanilla, musk and patchouli blend.

Unfortunately this fragrance has missed the mark. It horrifies me to say the least.

A nice white floral patchouli musk. Starts off clean and fruity and the drydown is a rather transparent freesia and musk. With a touch of patchouli, it's ok but doesn't feel special.

Fruity at first, yet not bubbly or teenage-like because the flowery components keep things in check. Definitely worth smelling at your next trip to the mall.

Performs exactly as expected. The opening is nice -- the mandarin/lychee opening has some sparkle, but overall this smells like a vaguely fruity room candle. And I like odd scents, but Look never quite makes me want to smell like... Look.

More 'safe' than 'sophisticated', but perfectly fine for a young person who doesn't want to smell like she's trying too hard.
