B. United Woman Benetton for women

Love it , but not in my favorites. It would need to last a lot longer to be in my favorites, also does not project enough. But the smell is amazing

I'm 24 gay male and I use this scent. A beautiful and tasteful fruity/floral scent. That said, its hardly noticeable or lasting. No citrus punch, unlike other perfumes in this category, which is a good thing. Feminine, but within limits. Recommended only if you like keeping your perfume to yourself. Very inexpensive!

This is a great scent, it reminds me of Gloria by Cacharel, but a very watered down version. Somthing sweet for summer.

'I agree that the fragrance is delightful, soft , 'pink', and youthful. I also agree that it evaporates rather fast. I've noticed that it smells like a powdery version of a cheap copy of Ed Hardy Love and Luck, called Hot Pink. I like both, but neither lasts more than a couple of hours.

i remember...yes indeed many persons said there are similar

it's very strange to me that this scent used to have gloria by cacharel as a similar perfume listed, and now it has disappeared. does anyone else remember this or am i crazy?

this stuff is great. lasts all day. smells amazing and is very inexpensive.

i have this perfume, and i have to say i keep sniffing myself as long as i can with it. But it drys out so fast, i still smell it, but only i can do it or anyone with one or two inches maximum away from me. Maybe it's my skin chemistry? who knows.

Not quite a suitable replacement for Gloria Cacharel, but pretty close. It's missing almonds and sexy liquer, and is much more cheerful and innocent than the sultry Gloria, but (especially in the first few minutes) I definitely got some Gloria flashbacks.

Update: There's no lasting power here. Unlike Gloria, this is very fleeting and unsubstantial. The more time passes, the more it becomes a light and fresh scent suitable for the gym. Which isn't like Gloria at all, now, is it!

Benetton B. United for Women is soft, feminine, and cozy! Sweet red berries, warm vanilla, fresh cotton flower, semi-spicy black currant, blossoming freesia, and ripe raspberry. A dry down of cedar and sandal wood with a hint of orange, bergamot, and peony. This fragrance is delightful; it’s hard to believe it’s not more popular!

This is a luscious fruity oriental bordering on the gourmand side. The top notes are filled with gorgeous red berries and thick black currant essence. The heart and dry down is the most oriental phase. I smell well-blended flowers, cedar, powdery sandalwood, and vanilla all brightened by a zesty note of raspberry. It almost feels like I’m eating an exotic warm dish with a delicious scoop of raspberry sauce on top! I see this as a great summer time fragrance as well as a cozy and yet fun pick-me up fume for colder days. The dry down is SO reminiscent of Black XS! For lovers of Black XS, you could wear B United in warmer weather and rock the other one out at night! For lovers of berry/vanilla combos, at this low price, you owe it to yourself to try this one out!

Ps: B United was created by one of my favorite noses, Christophe Raynaud, who also created the legendary powdery/berry fragrance "MY INSOLENCE" for Guerlain! You can definitely sense his signature silky style in this composition as well.

I spray some in my hair after a wash; it smells heavenly throughout the day when I get a whiff..

EDIT: Putting in an actual review -
This one isn't a usual sporty perfume, even though its Benetton. It starts with some subdued flowers - not sharp, just sweet and creamish. The middle retains the flowers with some fruit: I think its a cross between strawberries and raspberries, and its lovely. The dry down is a soft vanilla plus sandalwood.

I feel its a cross between Kenzo Amour and Nina Ricci Nina, in a good way. There's no one sharp note that stands out in this one: It has a constant sweet vanilla background. Its not cloying, it's not a dessert, it won't suffocate you, it's not edible, it's not offensive, it has no sharp edges: I think the word to describe this would be MELLOW.

It lasts for about 4 hours. Projects about 5 inches, so stays pretty much close to the skin. I'm on my second bottle now. Its what I wear to feel comfortable, sometimes even to work. It works the best during the rains.

PS: Use it with a moisturizer and it stays longer, plus my previous comment about the hair still holds true :)

Ohhh, I really love it... <3

i'm loving black currant these days in perfume. i can smell it along with the rasberry and vanilla and it is so delicious. but, to make it not too sweet there is lovely sandalwood, cedar and musk to make it nice and spicey. i find it a perfect wear around scent.

Someone bought this for me and I ended giving it to my mother because it was too sweet.

I recently bought this perfume and I absolutely love the concoction of ingredients. It's great for all seasons and all occasions. Its scent is mild enough especially for those who are sensitive to smells. It is very lasting.

I bought the gift set of these perfume. well, it's smell good on me. but I think it's too sweet and warm for a worker like me. I have so many activities outdoor, so I need more fruity perfume.

Yep, finally I bought this one in a gift set unsniffed. My decision only based on the reviews here. It's not bad, some how lack of originality, the top notes is very berry , a hint of oriental floral at the middle just like Mixte Femme Jeanne Arthes, and then the base notes that remind me of some thing like Benetton Colors women that my friend from high school used to wear it a lot in the old days. Afterall I have to admit that I have a tendency for oriental scent because it has warmth, not too clean and boring. That's why I bought this.

I was surprised to find this oriental smell among benetton fragrances, as I got used to fruity or aquatic florals from them.

Also, there is no connection between B United and B United Jeans, except for the package.

This one features powdery raspberry notes and strong florals(perhaps the cotton stands up for itself the most). I can also trace some almond notes. At the first sniff, I thought that I was holding Cacharel Gloria in my hand; they are extremely similar, B United being a slightly softer and fresher version of it. Vanilla makes its way in the middle notes until the drydown.

All in all, it is a wearable scent for those who have a taste for orientals.

This is a typical "pink scent", but not bad. Fresh and fruity at first, and sweeter then. I like raspberry in this perfume. It can be perfect for young ladies.
