This is a typical Creed: a well executed womens floral made with some of the better ingredients on the market. The problem is the synthetic stuff is so much better and women have voted with their dollars and senses. This si only good if you want to make a statement about better quality ingridients that don't necessairily amount to a better product. It's like buying the all natural soda which is better for you but just can't match the effect of the bad stuff on you.

A very run-of-the-mill offering from Creed. Watery floral that smells like many others at 25% of Creed's price. Even the much-vaunted quality adds precious little to the proceedings. Many other fragrances, including other Creeds, are more worthwhile.

On me this is a sickly-sweet mess of apple & melon, with unfortunately no discernable flowers. Very disappointing. lf l smelled it blind l would never guess that it came from a house like Creed. There are far better, cheaper examples of this genre available on the mass market today. What happened?

It seems to me that the type of people who would wear a bombastic fruity floral such as this are the same type of people who own a small dog and paint its toe nails pink.

Now I have nothing against yappy little dogs. I think it's quite cute when their owners take them to the mall and don't notice when they drop something on the floor as the owners are scurrying down the isle.

See all those notes listed, that's what you'll smell like if you wear this. If you're short on cash you can tide yourself over by buying a bag of Jolly Ranchers, sucking on them until they are wet and sticky and then plastering them all over your chest. Same result.

And your dog will love it.

A lighter, fresh floral that lasts throughout. Like walking through a flower garden that doesn't have too many roses. Initially there's some citrus fruit, mainly mandarin/orange and grapefruit to me, and perhaps bergamot. Not too sweet, not too tart, just right. I'm not really getting berry, melon, apple, or peach; nor am I getting mint/aquatics; and that's just fine. They may well be in the mix, they're just not figuring prominently for me. Not soapy or powdery, either. Primarily floral, and a very nice, well-balanced one at that.

Nice fruity and flowery type of smell you can smell the fruit very much in this fragrance. Great smell on a woman, more of a casual fragrance in my eyes but nicely done. I could see a woman wearing this in a less formal setting, hanging outside with her significant other to eat, a picnic, on the beach, and on a tropical vacation.

I second the "I like Spring Flower, with an emphasis on "like" response. I bought several sample vials from ebay. There are soooo many perfumes of this genre, and despite its price and prestige, this is nothing special or bottle worthy for me (but fun trying though! :-)

My first few sniffs of this had me saying Oh, yawn, another fruity floral the last thing in the world I need to be smelling now So I lost interest until about ten minutes later when I realized that the textured, generic, slightly synthetic fruity floral opening I had just experienced had turned into an aroma of delicacy and freshness. Its not even fair to call the opening fruity floral because the floral part of it is minimal. The fruit, however, are etherealized translucence. The peach, pear, and melon (I dont get apricot or apple) are pristinely vaporous, and, while fruity fragrances are usually an annoyance to me, I cant help but admire the clarity and quality of these accords. The heart notes pick up some floral elements lily of the valley and water lily each with an edge of lemon blossom. Its a very good floral accord bright and clean feminine but not girly. For the base I get cedar, vanilla, and powder.

Spring Flower performs beautifully on the skin Its sillage occurs in wisps I would say that this is a scent that should be smelled as sillage rather than close to the skin. Close to the skin Spring Flower smells more creamy. The wispy nature of its sillage is its true accomplishment and persona, IMHO.

I love, love, love Spring Flowers! Its fresh scent is very glamorous, and to me, somehow, very modern. Notes of peach, apple, melon, jasmine, rose, musk, and ambergris all blended so beautifully. Very different and distinct scent. I get so many compliments when I wear this ~ everyone wants to know what I'm wearing.
