A great inexpensive sweet oriental. Bought blind and took a chance on this celebrity scent. Glad I did it's great. Big thumbs UP

I took a big chance on this - I have a boyfriend with a very choosy taste... Not only I bought anosmic on description, but also for another person (dangerous business....). I examined the notes of the few perfumes he wore over the last 5 years, and then searched by notes. This is a winner !!!! The lavender is very pronounced, and the combination of scents is fantastic, recommended for lavender-cinnamon-spice lovers. ** I would like to add - I do not differentiate frags to feminine or masculine, since on each individual skin (also depending on other variables) they smell different, I find it is the wearer that assigns the gender-accent (and flavor-accent) to a scent, once it combined with current skin chemistry and ambient conditions....

If you're a fan of Paco Rabanne's 1 Million and Diesel's Plus Plus then it's a safe bet that you'll be a fan of this. Inverse successfully combines the spicy, blood orange notes of the former with the fruity milkyness of the latter to create a great smelling budget scent. It's not a very masculine fragrance by any means though; so if you're only into macho powerhouses then this probably isn't for you.

I really love this scent. It is not masculine at all, and I would even dare to say that it is feminine but very very sexy. I also think it captures Kylie's character. It is not available here in the USA, but I was able to order it online from the UK. And it is nice that I can wear something that not everyone else is wearing.

It was a blind buy (the shop had no tester) and I didn't regret it. At Rossmann it was on sale for 11 $. Definitely a unisex fragrance. A real oriental but it's not heavy, just ambery sweet + remarkable cinnamon (without many citrus) and it ends powdery and lasts all day. On my skin it's very close to Gaultier 2 but a bit more masculine and more complex. I will keep it only for special occasion not for everyday 'cause it's very intimate, I think. Kylie said: it's for the men in my life, who, as you know are complex, colorful characters. It will be a Limited Edition,so it's worth to try.

At first whiff my reaction was A masculine? Are you kidding me? Inverse has a very pronounced feminine touch, which actually is one of its great qualities once you accept it. The same goes for its very synthetic feel this is not a classical symphony for your nose, its first rate techno dance pop and extremely enjoyable as such. After the opening lavender blast has calmed down, you are ready to enjoy a wonderful milky/creamy sweetness that feels both warm and cold at the same time. Impressive. And no problems with longevity here it easily lasts a whole evening on my skin. Im a big Kylie fan and Inverse catches her own image spot on, both in the packaging and the scent itself. Unpretentious and lovable regardless of gender, age and sexual orientation: Come on everybody, join the fun! A class act especially for a celebrity scent. It smells expensive and sophisticated (but can be found extremely cheap), its unisex without being bland and I love it! Thumbs up!

Ok, I know I shouldn't but I really like this! I know it must be completely synthetic but it doesn't come across that way. Yes I like Kylie too hence why I tried it in the first place. It's now £4:75, come on! It's well worth it for those days when you're doin nothing special! Better than sooooo many other "designer" scents out there at the moment, like everything from P&G. Coty closely follow but at least they try to make the scent smell natural!

Potentially nice scent ruined by zero longevity.

Can't say I notice the smell of condensed milk which it is claimed to have but there is a certain smoothness - maybe even creaminess to it.
Smells herbal, and menthol-like, reminds me of some sort of sore throat syrup. I think there is quite lot of clove in this.
As I said it could be good but there is no point in owning a bottle as it has one of the shortest shelf lives of any scent I've encountered.

This smells so similar to 'calum' by calum best /or '1 million ' by paco rabanne - i dont like either of them . very sweet and sickly yuk! i bought the bottle a few days ago and will be throwing it out shortly -total waste of money , bottle is very plain and uninspiring

Very spicy and musky. Not overbearing, but not long lasting. 3 sprays last maybe 3-4 hours. Bought it blind and am not disappointed. It's still not readily available in America. A must for any Kylie fan!
