Dolly Girl Bonjour L'Amour by Anna Sui

Just adore this one. It's fruity, juicy and sweet, but grown-up. It's not a teenage mall-girl scent. It has a tart edge and its presence is glorious but not overpowering. A really wonderful summer fragrance.

DKNY Be Delicious by Donna Karan

I found that the cucumber drowned out the apple.....I was expecting really fresh, acidic, apple-dominated topnotes, but it smells like wilted cucumber. The drydown is nice enough, though quite boring and generic. I sort of regret the purchase.

Orange Blossom by Jo Malone

Orange Blossom smells divine, but it's a bit too literal for me. I think a layering of this along with a vanilla or a jasmine (more creative members can come up with better combos than my predictable ones) would make this a lot more wearable, while still keeping the vulnerable, sweet, honest, blossomy heart.

Nectarine Blossom & Honey by Jo Malone

Mmmmm....this is so yummy and it smells positively edible - but not in a gourmandy way. It smells more like a juicy cocktail - but not in an Escada way. It's quite sweet but isn't sickly and I don't think it would appeal to teenage girls. I couldn't pick up on too much honey, but there is actual nectarine and peach in there, as well as the blossoms. The longevity is very poor, as is the sillage, but the great thing is that you can keep spraying it on and getting those delicious juicy topnotes.

A great spring/summer fragrance for women who want to smell wispy and delicious.
