Elizabeth Arden presents a new perfume, 5th Avenue Style, in September 2009. The fragrance was created by Yann Vasnier from Givaudan.
The fragrance aims at woman who manages to retain her style, buys unique jewelry and clothes and chooses special fragrances which make her happy. Raspberry, marigold and Italian bergamot lie in a top together with sexy, pink pepper. A heart adds petals of peony, plum, peach, New York apple blossom and white chocolate truffle. A base incorporates vanilla, moss and white musk.
Perfume Elizabeth Arden 5th Avenue Style arrives on the market as 75 and 125ml EDT.

Base Notes
5th Avenue Style is fashionable and fun gourmand scent. I could easily wear it to a cocktail party, an evening out or simply to work. It is certainly sweet but there are other layers to this fragrance that makes it interesting enough to keep it in my gourmand’s collection.
First of all I like the zesty bergamot opening with spicy pink pepper. I smell both peach and plum in the heart notes and this is where the scent becomes really sweet. The floral notes are strong and a bit sharp following the grand tradition of the original 5th Avenue. There also a slight chocolate accent, which is extremely nice but it does not smell to me very chocolate-y. It could be nice if the chocolate was just a little bit more noticeable. I think it will work superb here. The dry down is a light vanilla with a dab of chocolate and woody notes from oakmoss. I think that both, longevity and sillage are pretty good.
Overall score is 7/10. This is a nice gourmand for grown-ups. Versatile, easy to wear and stylish.
Very, very sweet fragrance. At first sniff it is sweet lemon pie, afer it goes deeper and very long lasting. I would say rather beautiful scent. Dont love it, but like it.
Smells like lemon pie!, totally creamy vanilla lemon pie! Love it
5th Avenue Style opens with a blast of citrus and spicy pepper. And these two notes are most prominent for me in this perfume. It’s mostly fresh and sour, not sweet at all. I was hoping to get a sweet chocolate note but I can’t detect it. Sometimes I feel that it’s somewhere there but it’s very subtle, overpowered by sore peach. I must admit that the peach is not very juicy.
Unfortunately 5th Avenue Style is not working with me. It’s sore and not gourmand at all as I was hoping. I don’t detect anything sweet in it. As much as I adore original 5th Avenue, I don’t fancy its sister 5th Avenue Style.
Imagine the daughter of the Fifty Avenue's woman in a delight spring evening seatting in patisserie with friends, smiling, talking, drinking a french soda and eating some nice desert with no gilty. She's outgoing, elegant, delicate, with a fresh and cool atittude. She's spicy but somehow you can see through those warm eyes she's a sweetheart. This is how I'd describe this fragrance.
After reading the comments here I made a blind purchase. I just got it and I can say it is pretty nice and I dont't regret buying it at all. I find it very elegant and refined, wearable in both warmer and colder days.
Today I bought this one, blindly, by reading the rewies here! And I mostly agree with Tigerlillian, Its like effervescence, a little citric, and then it turns so creamy. Beautiful scent, airy, sofisticated, very femenine!! Great fragance!
I think it fits perfectly for spring.
-------------------
Note: I forgot to say that it´s very very long lasting. Fromo early in the morning till late at night... It´s there by your side!!
it's nice, but not fantastic. it does smell strikingly similar to jessica simpson's fancy love (especially in the dry down) but the top notes of this fragrance literally make my nose HURT! idk what it is about the top notes, but it's so pungent and just totally not wearable! good thing that phase only lasts about 10 minutes. the drydown is much softer, not as sharp, and very sophisticated. starts smelling exactly like fancy love, except it's just slightly more sharp and fresh, while fancy love is more smooth and sweet. this is definitely not a gourmand in my opinion. it's strictly floral to my nose. i'm not TOO impressed, but it's nice and easy to wear for every day and the price is not bad at all.
most obvious notes: peach, pepper, flowers
least obvious notes: white chocolate, vanilla
7/10
I'm the biggest blind buyer ever, and LUCKY! I got this a few days ago and am loving it! I thought it smelled very familiar and within a few minutes I realized it's so very close to Jessica Simpson's Fancy Love. I tested side by side and there's just a slight difference, Fancy Love being just a tiny bit sweeter. I have a huge bottle of both and can't decide which I like more so they'll both get used up. Style is more for a baby shower while F L is more for a wedding day. Style is a luxury billowy soap, F L is a creamy delicate bodywash. Both are knights in white satin!
This is a beautiful scent, and one I've come to love recently.
A zesty, piquant opening with the raspberry and bergamot and pink pepper is a lovely way to start. On me it's a very citric scent that I just adore.
I get a subtle blueberry note (perhaps the plums?)and a chocolatey dry down, with strong hints of vanilla.
Great sillage and really good longevity...what more can you ask for in a scent?
Oh...and the price is so good too, so fantastic value for a beautiful perfume.
I find that 5th Avenue Style is very versatile. It's a good summer scent but it can be worn in winter too. And it's just as good to wear to school or work as it is to wear to a club.
I love it...9/10
nice smell ....love it !
Very nice. This fragrance is very beautiful and perfect for the summer. Fruit notes. Definately a keeper.
I really love this one! For some reason I thought it would be more of a winter heavier gourmand and was pleasantly surprised to find out it is sooo wearable in summer. Style is very creamy and light, for some reason i get candid lemon from it, which makes it warm and fresh at the same time. The sillage and longevity are not the same as the original 5th Avenue, but still good and pretty noticeable.
Very elegant and smooth composition!
I love this scent! White chocolate, peach and vanilla really jump out at me with this one. Style is a great for wearing during the day (especially summer/spring) and it does have really good longevity. It starts out with a strong, sweet peachy aroma and changes to a lighter, softer musk scent.
Nice peachy fragrance, it smells like new clothes from an expensive shop. Only sad thing is the fragrance is gone within the hour but the price is right so you can reapply as you please.
Creamy and nice scent. Almost with a foody touch. Smells slightly as white chocolate and peach. The lasting power is not the best but for this money ok. A yummy perfume but not so special. If you don´t have it you haven´t missed a great scent.
I like this scent so much. I don't smell any chocolate in this perfume for some reason, all I smell is a sparkling and refreshing Champagne type note. The fragrance is "full" and intoxicating. There's a perfume I own Marry Me by Lanvin where when I smell it I am intoxicated by a certain note that is so appealing to me and I can't put my finger on what it is. Style has this same intoxicating note, and I can not get enough of the top notes in this. I also think it reminds me of a perfume from the 80's and it is so refreshing to me. I have several Elizabeth Arden perfumes, this one is absolutely my favorite. Arden Beauty would be next in line but this one gets many more stars in my book. Love it
5th Avenue Style opens with fruity effervescence, like a light, raspberry limeade.
The heart transforms into a dreamy citrus meringue, with creamy nuances and a drizzle of raspberry sauce for color. A sheer floral blossom veil flutters coyly in the background.
Gourmand but soft and airy. Delightfully delicious with simplicity and grace. She's independent yet easy to love and seemly fits into any situation.
I can smell a similarity to "Extraordinary" (AVON) ... that was created few years earlier... :-)
LOVE from LOUVE
Thrilled to have this in my wardrobe! I think I've finally found my spring/summer scent! I've been searching long & hard for one! So delicious & fresh! The opening is bright and crisp like ripe fruit, then the middle turns to a kind of soapy clean, freshly showered scent, but quickly fades into a white chocolate, vanilla & moss in the drydown. The musk doesn't show up on me... I'm kind of happy about that. The vanilla & moss always tame it w/ my chemistry. Love this!!!! Love this!!!!
I just bought this 5th avenue style today and its awesome..when i wear it..its make my lover want to kiss me more and more.. :)
I agree with Karlee79: it reminded me of Burberry woman in the dry down. I don't like Burberry woman so I gave my 5th. Ave. style to my sister but after a few days... I phoned her and asked for my fragrance back! She wasn't in love with it, anyway! Fortunately!
this perfume is absolutely beautiful
its sexy & very feminine .......
i love it........
I like the smell, but it hasn´t a great staying power.
this is a awesome perfume! It reminds me of Burberry Woman in the dry down. It's is most certainly a creamy gourmand perfume, but only i the end. First spritz is lots of fruit and flowers. Don't let the initial first spray fool you, if you can get past the citrusy opening you will get the whole of this fragrance, about 20 or 30 mins after spraying. It is rich and creamy. This is a unique scent. Only it does not last long maybe 2 hrs. This is why I did not purchase.
Okay broke down and bought it, dont care if i have to reapply! it too good
Mad-Lainey, you are soo right! This is an excellent perfume with great staying power too!
Just lovely!!

baunya sedap tapi tak tahank lama...
5th Avenue Style is becoming quite rare nowadays, especially in UK.
It is a shame as, in my opinion, it is an 'upgraded', much more sophisticated version of Green Tea.
Although tea note is not listed, when sprayed, I smell iced green tea with a slice of lemon. The 'white chocolate vanilla cookie' becomes prominent after approx. 45 minutes. The drydown is pleasant, I can detect delicate flowery note which is sweet but does not cause any headache at all. Like a summer breeze in a mysterious garden at dawn.
I am a typical gourmand freak, I love all gourmand fragrances, that one is somehow a bit different. I love that white choc cookie note, but apart from that there is iced green tea note to enjoy as well as a hint of apple blossom and peony.
It suits any lady at any age and any profession. It is a great, refreshing 'wake up' in the morning as well as gives you a bit of energy when you are tired after all day long.
5th Avenue is a great surprise as rather than adding two or 3 notes to make it distinct from the original 5ht Avenue, Arden went a bit further and created a completely different fragrance that is not boring and evokes smile on my face every time i wear it :-)
I'd say, grab it before it becomes impossible to find as it is hard enough to find it nowadays.
It is really well worth trying.
I tried it on a paper strip today and was dissapointed (well maybe I should have treid it on my skin though). It smelled pleasant, but more like a fresh floral fruity than a gourmand (and i was expecting a gourmand!). It actually smells similar to True Religion new fragrance...
great smell... like the body shop DEWBERRY..
I found 5 testers on ebay theyre between $25-29...& i am sooo tempted to buy one unsniffed because i love the notes,but ive learned my lesson...yet i will still consider purchasing one!lol
very gourmand,I think too simple,a lot of plums
So creamy,lovely...but smells foody...more like Garnier fructis shampoo but dries down to a lovely peach, white chocolate hint.
I've waited and waited for this perfume..and still waiting. Does anyone knows, it came out or not? Can't find information.
I can't find this online, in the website, ANYWHERE in the USA. Can someone shed some light on this? It was supposed to be released September '09....????
I want to try it, but I cannot find in my city or Web shop in China.
I seldom can smell which material or note of perfume, my friends ask me if I can tell the composition, if I drink it maybe I can, hahahaha!!!
this fragrance is just great... :) it´s my favorite... <3
a great fragrance....smeel very refreshing and sofisticated... love it..
