Cosmic Radiance Britney Spears for women

Radiance and Cosmic are like meeting twins. You think they're alike at first, but after getting to know them you realize that they actually have their own different personalities.

I HATED the original Radiance and gave it away after failed attempts to try to like it. But I just had to get Cosmic Radiance to see if they do or do not smell alike.

I agree with @AnaCezar. It smells similar [not exactly, but SIMILAR] to Radiance at the beginning (I hated Radiance, so I remember), but the dry down is sweeter and much fruitier.

The tuberose in Radiance ruined it for me because it was all I could smell. However in Cosmic, the tuberose luckily gets taken over with fruits and vanilla.

Don't listen to the people saying the 'opening smells exactly like radiance' or the 'whole thing smells exactly like radiance' Well Radiance was my 2nd perfume and I used it 3-4 times a week for 2 years so I'm pretty familiars with it. Cosmic Radiance has a big burst of juicy, rich top notes while Radiance has a fun, berried, lighter opening. By the dry down, you can tell Cosmic Radiance has a more sophisticated or mature dry down unlike Radiance which has the sweet berries gives it a fun and flirty vibe. I think there is a ton of differences between the two, but I do admit there is some similarites. But before you totally just don't think about getting this, find a tester of both and spray one on each wrist. See the differences for yourself.

They have the 1.7 oz bottles at TJMaxx for 14.99! I bought 2. SO psyched! I like Cosmic more than the original but I enjoy them both. I ADORE the bottle! : )

I tried Cosmic Radiance today. It opens exactly like the original Radiance, but the driedown is quite different, more fruity and much better, imo. Maybe it had a love affair with my chemestry.
I don´t own a bottle, but it´s going straight to my wish list. Very nice.

it reminds me of a liqour.. i just cant remember the name... this perfume makes a woman and gayman feels sophisticated..

love this perfume 10/10

I simply LOVE this fragrance, especially the vanilla notes, which you can notice after a while. Unfortunately this one doesn't last for a long time and you have to put your nose on your skin to smell it perfectly. I would prefer a perfume which one other people around me can smell too. ;-)

Nevertheless this is my favourite of Britney's perfumes. I gotta admit that when I smelled this one first, I was really disappointed because it smelled to me like "Radiance", but when I was at home and compared both, I noticed there was a difference. But it only smells a bit like radiance in the first minutes, when the vanilla notes come out there's no comparison anymore. I LOVE IT!

In my opinion this smells EXACTLY like her other fragrance "Circus Fantasy" & a hint like "Radiance". It also smells like Salvatore Ferragamo "Incanto Shine" & Dolce & Gabbana "Light Blue" & Celine Dion "Pure Brilliance". This is definitely a citrusy perfume. I definitely like "Radiance" better. The projection power is nice as well as the staying power. Tip, spray perfume on clothes not skin to last longer. This scent is not bad at all, but its not the very best. I won't be re-purchasing this perfume because it smells like many other scents out there.

BTW to all the people that are saying this smells exactly like Radiance, trust me, you're all completely wrong. You guys probably don't even own these 2 perfumes & are only judging by a one time sniff. It only smells like it a hint at the beginning because it is a flanker to Radiance of course. Otherwise Cosmic Radiance is more orange citrus & Radiance is more tuberose, floral, fruity berries.

It's pretty hard to find the difference between this one and the original Radiance just by sniff from the bottle. But you will find the different 'feeling' when you wearing it. Cosmic Radiance is lighter, fresher and more juicy than Radiance.

They're like a twin sister. They smell and look like each other a lot. But they have completely different persona. 'Radiance' is a girly twin who is shy, sweet, pretty, lovely and very feminine. 'Cosmic Radiance' is a tomboy twin who is bold, cheerful, funny and more out-going than her sister.

I'm so happy to have both of them in my wardrobe. They're really amazing. ;)

Lovely scent, fresh and brightly floral but unfortunately, it hardly stays on me even as a skin scent. Neither I nor my beloved can smell it on me after 5 minutes... Then again, my skin is a sponge regarding fragrances: they need to be pungent and opulent. I am happy for those on whom that lovely scent remains but for me, this one is a no no...

I have to say I am disappointed with this one. I love Britney Spears perfume but this one kind of flopped for me. I don't like floral scents. While I don't mind the original Radiance I found that Cosmic smelled too similar to it with 10 times more florals and it was quite strong. It literally gave me a migraine within a few minutes of smelling it. The bottom notes were better but not worth it to me to buy it. Sad face!

For me it is Whit, It's the other way around, this "darker" Radiance seems to last much,much longer on me and I LOOOOOVE it! I love all of her Fragrances. The only one of Britney's I have a problem with is Circus Fantasy, I get NONE of the notes listed, on me C.F. is just a light vershion of JLO's GLOW. (I should have posted that last part as a review for C.F. Oh qwell, my point is COSMIC RADIANCE IS A GEM!!!! 10/10 Love the B/W bottle way more that the blue and pink one. WHATEVER ALL BRTINEY'S Perfumes are AMAZING! I'm SO bipolar!@ lol :)

This is my second review of Cosmic Radiance. My hubby bought me the gift set for Valentines Day, and even though I absolutely love the smell, it just doesn't last as long as the original Radiance. I layered the shower gel and the lotion with a few spritzes of the perfume and it stays on for about 2 hours max. This one settles much closer to the skin, but even I can't smell it after a while. Such a shame, because I really do love it, but sadly, this won't be a repurchase. I'll probably go back to the original, which lasts much, much longer on my skin with just the lotion. I adore Brit's frags because they are so youthful and long-lasting, but this one won't be a staple in my collection, even though I would love for it to be. Bottom line: it's the "darker" version of Radiance, but it just doesn't last as long.

Beautiful warm vanilla dry down.

Britney has a new one on the way! Britney Spears Golden Radiance!!!!

what a let down ,smells just like the original radiance,sure if you don't own the original its worth getting because its a beautiful scent but if you already have radiance don't waste your money

I am so excited to finally get my hands on Cosmic Radiance.
I got a 100ml bottle for £24.00 from ebay.co.uk.
This time around on the first spray you get a fantastic fruity blast of juicy Mandarin Orange and lovely soft Pear.
When these two notes have calmed a little the sweetness of the Litchi comes through to make it a more sexy/naughty perfume.
As for the heart/middle notes the florals that shout at me the most are Jasmine and Tuberose, which is great because I adore them.
When its time for the drydown, a warm Vaniila comes through and mixed with Amber and Musk give a perfect close to the skin richness and sensual feel.
Every note in this perfume is wonderful.
I LOVE IT SO MUCH!!!
I also think it is totally different to Radiance, I get a lot more musky notes with Radiance,with Cosmic Radiance its like a fruit overload in a good way.
Britney you did it again,another amazing creation.
I can't wait to see what you bring us in 2012!

I'm having a love/hate relationship with this. When I spray this on I smell a few lovely fruits and flowers. But once it dries down and i put my nose on my wrist, in some way it gets a lot sharper, wich gives me a headache!

I actually didnt mind this scent,I think it smells better than Radiance..and to me it doesnt smell anything like Radiance..

COSMIC RADIANCE are very very very identixcal to RADIANCE..if you want more sweeter get RADIANCE if you want more fresh citrusy kind of smell then pick up COSMIC RADIANCE..thats it

I dunno why I can´t really make a difference between this and the earlier "Radience" even though there is lots of different ingredients. Im ashamed. So I could describe this at the same way as the Radience. Weird mix, but still like it some how! And have to add that I shall try these two next time not in a hurry and fragrancies side by side to sense the difference..

This fragrance is different to Radiance, not massively agreed but enough that its worth a try. The first difference is the opening, its more crisp than the original radiance. The second difference is probably the most major one i notice and thats the base, this one has a very creamy vanilla smell to it and this lasts for a reasonable amount of time. I prefer this to the original simply because of the drydown, with the original radiance it never seems to last on my skin long enough to get to the base, theres nothing left on my skin, good for those days where i may be going out at night so its easy to change fragrance but otherwise its nice to have a warm vanilla base which is exactly what this fragrance has. Well done Britney :)

Wow! this smells amazing! Not the same as "Raidance" I get sharp,crisp and fresh from the first spray, this one smells more fresh,creammy and has orange! the vinilla and amber are SO comforting! this last a long time, I think it would be the best for night time.Smells super! I love this! What is next Britney???

Similar to the first one for sure! More watery perhaps. Very noticeable pears in this one. When it comes to the middle/base notes, it is fuitier and sweeter than the original (the original is more floral as it dries down). If you didn't care for the original, it is unlikely that you will be impressed with this one.

Very similar to the first one but with less berry notes than the original, just a little more fresh.

Can someone please,please tell me ware I can find the Big 3.4 Oz Bottle of Cosmic Raidance??? I have been to 2 Macy's= Nothing,2 Yonkers =Nothing JC Penny's=Nothing, Kohl's =only the 1.Oz bottle. I have been to many others stores around both malls I live around, It's the same story, No place has it (as in NEVER had it, NOT "it's been here,but sold out")I don't understand why Kohl's only gets in the 1 Oz bottles? Fragrances are a big part of there sales, they have almost every Celb/Super Star Perfume ever made! Also, I do not put my Bank/Credit info online, so that is out. The Big size Cosmic Raidance has GOT to be someware?...Right?.... You would think, but no, not even at Christmas time. How do they expect it to sell if no place has it in stock??? Thanks for any help or ideias that I may have over looked or not thought of. :)

so similar to RADIANCE.the different is if you like more fresh get COSMIC,if you want more sweet get RADIANCE

I would like to add that black and white is a hot color combination right now (late 2011) so Britney beat the trend when she released this in august 2011.

I really like Cosmic Radiance. It is very similar to the original Radiance, however Cosmic opens with a burst of oranges whereas Radiance opened with a burst of delicious moist berries. I believe this makes CR more of a daytime fragrance - IMO citrus and orange gives me a sunny daytime feel. Perhaps good for a wedding? Britney could wear it at her own impending nuptials to Mr Trawick.

I was excited when I saw a new Britney fragrance..then when I smelt it, to me smells exactly like Radiance, with maybe just a slightly more musky tone. Disappointed :(

Ok so I put Cosmic on today and all I'm smelling is the jasmine! Which is a great thing in my book! While no where near as brilliant as say, Alien, a BIG jasmine fragrance, Cosmic is a nice citrusy & fruity jasmine scent. I can't believe how much I detect it now! I definitely need a bottle when I want to wear a jasmine that isn't too heavy. The complete drydown totally reminds me of a 100x lighter Alien! Crazy I know, but it really does to me! Haha! BEAUTIFUL! Great job Brit & EA! : )

I have both Radiances and I have a feeling the drydown on this one is more user friendly. I can see heaviness with the first one. Some people said it was like Charlie Red or Red door. I think it is a little heavier than Cosmic. I can definitely smell the citrus in the opening of Cosmic compared to the berries in Radiance. The Cosmic Radiance dries like a light vanilla on me without the heavy murkiness. I prefer this one if I was forced to choose. Staying power was good for me.

Meh, this smells too much like the original!! All I smell are frosty candied flowers encased in plastic. Sooo not for me! :( Cosmic Radiance is rather boring and actually one of my least favorite perfumes in her entire collection next to the original Radiance. It just smells cheap and the notes don't really go anywhere. Lasting power was roughly five hours and the sillage was pretty good but I couldn't wait to wash it off. I also smell no vanilla whatsoever but maybe I didn't leave it on long enough to find it out. It truly seems like the quality( yes, I said quality ;') ) and quirkiness of her earlier fragrances is nowhere to be found with most recent offerings of this line. If that is the case then I'll just stick with Fantasy! :)

I do consider differences between this one and Radiance. Cosmic is warmer, bolder. Intense. A fall/winter fragrance.

They're both great and have similarities for sure, but the original Radiance is much more fruity and freshy.

BTW, Cosmic Radiance's bottle is despicable and looks poor, unfortunately. Meanwhile, first Radiance's bottle is Britney's winner.

Ignore the opening similarities, guys. Smell deeper and you're finding the differences for sure.

Wow, let's just say, if they for some reason stopped making the regulat Radiance, I wouldn't be upset having to purchase this instead... smells exactly the same to me.

Nice fragrance, wish it lasted longer. There are some subtle fruity notes but the florals are coming through nicely. Not sweet like the Fantasy line, but more of a well-rounded fragrance. I smell the litchi more than the orange. The drydown is a nice blend of the floral and fruity notes and finally the vanilla makes an appearance. Too bad everything is gone in less than two hours.

I love Britney Spears' perfumes, like seriously she's gotta be one of my favorite designers. [or... "designers", since i don't think she constitutes as an actual designer, does she?]

On top of that, I'm an astrophysics major, so anything with "cosmic" in it and I have an instant IGOTTAHAVEIT reaction, JUST becuase it has something spacey about it.

I'm here to report that combining two of my favorite things in the world did NOT have a pleasing effect. I sampled cosmic radiance on one hand and regular radiance on the other. I then quietly laughed to myself becuase they smelled EXACTLY THE SAME. THE REVIEWS DON'T LIE. [not that any of you would lie, but I was so curious, I had to sniff for myself!]

An hour later, some differences came out. Now, do you like oranges or berries better? Like berries? Go with the origional. Like oranges? Cosmic is for you.

A few hours later... and it seems that, just as the universe is expanding outwards at an accelerated rate, so has the cosmic fragrence from my hand. Regular radiance is much more clearly defined on my one hand... a faint trace of cosmic on my other...

*sigh* dissappointment all around...

Like many others have noted, I too find many similarities between this fragrance and the original Radiance. They differ only slightly which is a bit of a let-down.

While Cosmic Radiance is a touch creamier and more citrusy, I did get the feeling that I was smelling Radiance from a different bottle. Disappointing and somewhat irritating to say the least.

Dismissing its relation to Radiance in order to write an honest review, Cosmic Radiance is in itself, quite a pleasing fragrance. It has a pleasantly clean feel, with creamy white florals, soft musk and sweet, juicy fruit accords.

It smells like something you'd expect from bath products, like something you would reach for to refresh yourself after a long, hard day. At times this fragrance can smell a little cheap, but that's not to say that it's in any way revolting. I just personally prefer her earlier released fragrances.

The sweetness is not very dominant in Cosmic Radiance, with the focus being more so on the soapy white florals, which are lovely I must admit. Overall, the scent is smooth and feminine, and also surprisingly lasting which is an added bonus.

While I do like this fragrance enough to wear it every now and then, I probably won't be purchasing a full bottle. I just hope that the next fragrance she releases smells a little different from what we've previously smelt.

This perfume has me wondering if Britney will ever release another amazing fragrance ever again. It sucks :/ bland boring and cheap

I'd describe COSMIC RADIANCE best in one sentence as being a blend of the fruity freshness of the original Radiance and the surprisingly sophisticated white florals found in Curious.

COSMIC RADIANCE is fruity/sweet on first application, but it's sweet in a fresh and zingy way. I can separate the mandarin, but the pear is the star here. I can't detect any litchi. The initial fruity blast burns down with ten minutes, but some of the zesty sweetness lingers throughout the fragrance, so maybe they added some pear notes in the heart and base of the fragrance too?

The floral notes are very similar to Britney's first perfume Curious; the jasmine is the strongest floral on my skin, followed by the gardenia. I could detect a hint of tuberose, but thankfully it's only brief and soon becomes lost under the jasmine. I was disappointed not to be able to detect any of the peony.

The gardenia note lingers throughout the base, but musk soon over takes it. The musk note is light and clean, so it gives the perfume a sense of airiness. I usually find musky fragrances too heavy, but this seems 'watered' down. The vanilla and sandalwood combine to provide the first real shot of sweetness to the perfume after an hour or so.



The staying power is better then the original Radiance - probably because this is more focused on the florals, rather then the fruits. I can still smell it at the end of the day, a pleasant surprise.

COSMIC RADIANCE leans strongly towards floral with lighter fruit notes, whilst the original Radiance is more fruity than floral, so this is less sweet and more 'adult' then the original.

Even though the bottle is bejewelled and says 'Britney Spears', the fragrance inside is something that I'd think of as for the over 21 crowd.

As Cosmic Radiance and Radiance seem very alike I decided to compare them by testing one on my right and other one on my left wrist at the same time. Because the first time I tested Cosmic Radiance I was like “this is exactly like Radiance” and the second time I was like “no, it’s not exactly the same” and on the third time “no, it still is the same”.
But now for the comparison. The opening is quite different. While citruses make Cosmic Radiance fresher, Radiance is very sweet start from the beginning. The florals in the middle are what make these two most alike. But I never noticed cashmere wood in Radiance before I compared these two perfumes. Cashmere wood is what makes Radiance creamier and stronger, while vanilla and sandalwood make Cosmic Radiance softer and more down-to-earth.
They both seem most appropriate for colder times in autumn and in winter, especially when going out celebrating. But if I had to choose a perfume for New Year’s Eve party I wouldn’t hesitate of choosing Radiance because it is so intense while Cosmic Radiance seems more appropriate for intimate moments being much softer and not having that great lasting power.
I have both Cosmic Radiance and Radiance but if I had to choose only one I’d take Radiance. Sparkling berries and sensual cashmere wood are the notes that make it radiant for me and as these notes don’t appear in Cosmic Radiance it’s not as radiant as the original one.

I can't tell the difference between this and Radiance?? They smell exactly the same to me, however I only tried this once so i'll try again try and take more notice and report back.....

Edit
Well I tried it again.... There is a subtle difference between this and Radiance. This one has a creamier, softer, 'cosyier' base to it which is the most apparent at the dry down stage. I find Radiance more floral and cleaner smelling and stays pretty linear from top note to dry down. Cosmic radiance changes more with wearing and I didn't have to wait long for it to change perhaps half an hour or so. I also noticed the longevity and projection of Cosmic Radiance is not as strong as the original Radiance. All in all I would say Cosmic Radiance is a more snuggly, warmer more vanilla version. However, in my opinion the differences are only slight and if you already own Radiance there's no need to purchase this one as well. Although if you own neither and want to get one my recommendation would probably be Cosmic Radiance as I like the creamier note even if it doesn't last as long, especially now that some of us are coming into Winter :0)

Smells similar to radiance but it has more of ajuicy ornage tang to it, which is delicious. It also has more of a muskier drydown. The lasting power is better than the original. Emma x

I finally got to sample this at Kohls today. To me it doesn't smell identical to the original Radiance at all. Radiance smells like creamy berries with soft vanilla. I do, however, believe it is a mix between Radiance and In Control Curious, as another reviewer noted. This is definitely Radiance's seductive sister. It's flirty and playful but grown-up at the same time. Out of all the frags I have, my hubby loves for me to wear Brit's frags over the rest, and he went gaga when he smelled this one too. He thought it smelled like "sex and candy". No joke, his exact words. LOL This is an awesome scent and even better if you're a fan of Brit's frags. Thanks for another winner, Brit!

When reviewing this perfume, I think I fell in love with it a little bit more :D I cant describe how, but there are some similarities from Cosmic Radiance to Curious In Control, imo. I reckon its the vanilla thats quite warming and cosy.
I think I've found a real contender for my favourite Britney fragrance... Its definitely the sister to Radiance, no doubt, that original tuberosey smell is there but I find it less pungent than in the original.
The bottle is gorgeous as well, but I prefer the original bottle because it fits in better with my Britney Spears collection :)
Ive bought the 50ml bottle because there was a free tote, and I bought the 30ml giftset that came with a little sequinned purse.
I think either way I was going to buy it even if I didnt like it, like with Circus Fantasy it doesnt suit my skin at all but I bought it for display :)
My bank balance suffers incredibly when Britney releases a new fragrance :S

i really want one :)

Cosmic Radiance is a fabulously fruity scent which dries down to a warm vanilla, and I really love it.

The fragrance opens with a burst of fresh, juicy oranges and pears, and a slightly bitter note, which is from the lychees. The opening has a bubblegum quality to it...a sort of foody, plastic sweetness.

The orange gives it a sharpness which cuts through the underlying sweetness beautifully.

White florals soon start to emerge, and the fragrance becomes more mature and less "bubblegummy" in the dry down.

The vanilla and sandalwood become more prominent, as they take center stage in the slightly musky dry down.

There are a few similarities between this and the original Radiance, but this perfume is different enough to stand in its own right as a good scent.

In fact, I prefer this to Radiance, as I like the dry down a lot better and I find it has better lasting power.

CR lasts for around 4-6 hours on me, with good sillage for the first 3-4 which is not bad for a floral fruity on my skin.

This is a great scent to wear out to clubs, and perfect for fall and winter.

September 21st for UK purchasers, i got my samples in the post and im saving up for the physical bottles :)

Before I tried this and wrote my review I ordered a sample, it arrived yesterday and I was like "oh whatever already know it's the same as radiance" and i chucked it in my bag, today i took it out and thought "why not" it is different! it's not poles apart like i believe fantasy/midnight/hidden is but there are differences. This one settles to a warm yummy good enough to eat scent on me. It's lovely, I don't know if it's different enough for me to buy it, but in the near future when the price decreses or if i see one on special I might pick it up but i do find it better than the original but that might be cause it's new! ahah Try this a few times and don't judge it on the cover!!

i love the other radinence which means i love this coz to me they smell idential

I own Radiance and on me Cosmic Radiance smells almost exactly like a carbon copy of it! I'll have to check the notes but seriously this doesn't smell any different than Radiance on me....I waited and waited until Kohl's had the tester and was so happy when it finally showed up this morning...then rapidly disappointed! Britney's other fragrances are so different,(Fantasy being one of my favorites) that I was really expecting something at least a little different than Radiance. Oh well a disappointment for me but at least I don't have to shell out any money for it! On the plus side it did last a long time 6 hours or so then I scrubbed it so it would probably have gone on a lot longer and the sillage was pretty good, got whiffs of it now and again.

was so excited for this, i work with fragrance and went into the stock room where i saw this tester on the shelf, i was so excited, so i went to spray it.
Oh. Smelt exactly like radiance, maybe ever so slightly different but no, would not say they are different perfumes.
let down.

I went to Kohls on a whim to try this. I sprayed it, let it dry down and I kept having the nagging thought: "I've smelled this before."

An hour went past before I finally figured out what exactly was the dupe for this fragrance. Radiance. Yes, Radiance (the original). The difference between this an (the original) Radiance is that it is less sweet and the orange is dwindled down to almost nothing.

That's it. The floral arrangement, the composition, the same. Only thing missing is the sweet, caramel/gourmand orange.

If you want Radiance, but it's too sweet or too orange-y, try this.

I must say I am pleasantly surprised at how nice this perfume is. I love it! It smells delicious with a mix of flowers, vanilla and musk. I like this one much better than Radiance. So far the lasting power is pretty good as well. 4+ hours and counting....I am totally up for adding a bottle of this to my collection.

I love this scent! You should totally buy it!LUV IT!!

UK purchasers, I asked a sales lady in Boots the store, when this would be available as they have already created room for it on their shelves and she said toward the end of September due to it being prime for Christmas purchases :/ It feels like ages and I'm too excited for it! I still need to know when the remix album is out as well!

UGH I literally just tested it, and It smells just like radiance except in a different bottle...I'm so disappointed as I was looking forward to this one :(
Actually re-review: After giving it some time, It has quickly became my favorite...and Slightly distinct from Radiance. Instead of that berry note, you get a citrus note, and while it may seem light, it lasts a long time and has bit more strength to it than radiance. Not really a night version, in my opinion. I still love it.

I wish she would do another believe flanker but she has skipped that alltogether and gone to the Radiance ones which are not the best in my opinion.

Ware are you all finding this? I have called the malls (Yonker's,Macy's) around here and no one has it! :( I want to try this one really,REALLY bad!
By the way, I think Macy's will not carry Britney's perfumes any more for some strange reason. Come to think of it the last "new" Brit perfume I seen there was "Hidden Fantasy" cuz I got "Circus" and "Raidance" from the E.A. web site and my 2nd "RAIDANCE" at Younker's in the mall. I know Kohle's may have it in, they still have ALL of Britney's perfumes BUT they NEVER have the 3.3oz bottles.I hate to buy the 1 &1.7 oz bottles, you get so much more for your money when you get the 3.3 oz. Thank you for any help! :)

I got to try Cosmic today. It's fine I guess. I might like it a bit more than the original. But that's not saying much. They are so similar to one another. The Radiance line is my least favorite from Britney. I ADORE you B but get back to the gourmands. It's what you're GREAT at! Haha! I do LOVE the packaging this time around. Bravo on that! I'll get me a bottle someday. I just don't have to have it anytime soon. I made me a sample so I'll test it some more. Who knows, maybe I'll adore it in a wk! Haha. : )

I have been wanting this since i saw that someone on this site had it, and now,a few days ago,it was aviable in my country online,so i ordered as soon as i saw it :) So now i am going to test it :) Write later when i have tested it.
Edit: It smells like a combination of the original Radiance and Circus Fantasy,whick makes it fullier,richer and better :) I like it :)

On my skin, Cosmic Radiance smells like a mix between Radiance and Circus. The fruitiness makes it seem like a spring/summer scent, so it's a bit strange that it would be released so close to autumn. I normally like Britney's perfumes, but Cosmic Radiance is a bit too bland and teenybopper for my taste. The good news, however, is that the bottle is not as ugly as it looked in the promo pics. It's actually kind of cute, though the bottle's rock-ish black and white "jewels" seem like an odd contrast to the sugary sweet, fruity juice inside.

I went into Kohl's yesterday and they had a tester for this so I sprayed it and overall I wasn't too impressed.

I'm sorry to all you crazy Britney fans out there that absolutely love all of the perfumes she puts out, but to me, it smells a lot like Radiance, except more floral. I do like Radiance, but smelling this was just smelling Radiance in a black bejeweled bottle.

I'm gonna stick with her Fantasy lines. I'm not too crazy about the florals.

Britney’s releasing Cosmic Radiance, a new fragrance spinoff from the original, Radiance.

The sensual floral fragrance is a tribute to bold, confident, fun and flirty women (and Men).

quote from Britney:
“I believe that all women can create their own world where they shine the brightest,” Britney said in a release. “It’s all about having the power and confidence to be yourself. When I wear my new scent, Cosmic Radiance, I feel beautiful, empowered and sexy. the girls and boys will love this one!"

“The fragrance will be more contrasted and complex than the original,” reports People Mag. “It’s infused with a splash of citrus along with notes of amber, sandalwood and liquid vanilla. The eau de parfum spray starts at $39.50 per bottle, and will be available across the globe at select retailers and at Kohl’s stores nationwide.”

The rumor posted in May said it’d launch the same time as the Remix Album!

I can't wait to try this one! I love all of her perfumes so I know by the notes that I'll ove this one too!

Elizabeth Arden has unveiled the new feminine fragrance from singer Britney Spears. Cosmic Radiance will begin it's worldwide roll-out in August.

According to the brand, the scent was inspired by the idea of luminous sensuality, and aims to celebrate the power and beauty of women everywhere.

“Britney Spears has one of the most successful fragrance businesses in the world,” noted Elizabeth Arden Vice President for Global Fragrance Marketing Karen Huntoon. “Britney was looking to develop a fragrance with more energy and power. Cosmic Radiance makes the perfect connection with her new album, Femme Fatale, inspired by powerful, strong and confident women.”

Composed by Britney Spears, Cosmic Radiance opens on notes of mandarin, lychee and pear, leading to a heart of jasmine, gardenia, tuberose and peony. The base blends musk, amber, sandalwood and vanilla.

The fragrance flacon is decorated with black and white gemstones, and topped with a black cap. The outer carton is coloured black, white and pink, and decorated with a star-inspired motif.

Cosmic Radiance Britney Spears will be available as a 30ml, 50ml and 100ml edp spray, priced domestically at around US$39.50, US$49.50 and US$59.50, respectively.

Someone on Exhale (a Brit fansite) says that they found samples already in Kohls :) Too bad I can't go since I'm in Australia!

Has there been a release date set for this yet? I looked on Google and only found one story on it (this one) I guess I could call E.A. nothing is posted on there site yet about it. I'm so happy though, to get a "Night" vershion of RADIANCE! I hope this is just as AMAZING as the night vershion of Fantasy, Midnight Fantasy! Midnight is still my top favorite of all of Britney's Fragrances & I hope this will have that same night Magick!!! hurry and release this!
This is my best 1-9 of Britney's perfumes so far #1 being my favorite and so on.

1. Midnight Fantasy
2. Hidden Fantasy
3. Cerious IN Controal
4. Radiance
5. Believe
6. Cerious<3Heart
7. Cerious
8. Fantasy
9. Circus Fantasy

Spanish/español. Woow otro perfume de la princesa Britney :O tengo todos sus perfumes y este no puede faltar en mi coleccion eso si que no! muero ya por probarlo necesito una fecha de cuando sale a la venta o morire! *-* Ni modo chicas a ahorrar!!

I am thinking this Fall, it also said it would be released to coinside with Britney's new Remix album & she just put out a bran new album like only a month ago. Also fans on her site are saying the remix cd it out in the fall. A long wait, bummer. I want it like NOW.

How the heck can people like or dislike it if they havent even smelt it yet??? I'm excited about it! The notes make it sound good! Anyone know when it comes out for sure?

SO EXCITED! I have all Britney's perfumes and this is the one i wanted to come out! but I was calling it "Night Radiance" it even has the black cristals i thought up in my head! wow, a real life dream come true!

Britney's perfumes have the most hilarious names, tag lines and ad campaigns - But somehow, their cheesiness makes them more endearing. I'm looking forward to testing this one! Shame about the bottle though, it looks like a cheap 80s drugstore perfume. Hopefully it looks better in person.

I don't know if this is real and it kinda sounds a little "out there" but I WANT IT, I WANT IT, I WANT IT!!! Haha! I'm LOVING the coloring this time around!!! The notes are A OK with me too! : )
