Red Door Velvet by Elizabeth Arden

An elegant one really. It's green but not too much, a soft green tea accompanied with flowers, not bitter or sour.

I haven't tried this one yet although I'd like to because Red Door is my all time absolute favorite.I have never seen this anywhere to get a sample.I have Red Door Revealed and I like that one alot but this is hard to find!

There isn't really any comparison between this scent and the original Red Door. If you disliked Red Door, I urge you not to dismiss this fragrance.

The fragrance itself is quite musky, but nicely done. I think Red Door Velvet is more of a floral than a fruity scent. The bergamot in the opening is so subtle that you would have missed it entirely had you not been informed of its presence.

I was actually both shocked and pleasantly surprised by how expensive-smelling and sophisticated this fragrance is. The scent has a certain richness and warmth that exudes class.

The lasting strength was quite good I found, certainly better lasting than Red Door.

I won't say that this fragrance is better than Red Door, because in my opinion they both smell lovely when worn by the right person, however I'll admit that this fragrance would most likely be the more popular choice over the original.

For something deep, rich and unique from the Elizabeth Arden fragrance range, I would definitely recommend.

To me this smells just like Narciso Rodrigues for Her. Strong floriental which will not please everyone. I have to really be in the mood to wear this. Personally, I don't think this can compare to the original Red Door.

I agree it is quite unsual scent. Beautiful one!
Although I think they are more orintal floral... better to wear them in the evening..then they are very sexy, sensual...

It is one of the best elegant perfumes I have smelled, it is velvety, soft, smooth flowery scent, and smells exclusive. Better than Red Door.

This is an unusual scent. I like the die down of the scent...I can't smell the top notes at first spray. It seems more powdery and strong. But it dies down to a soft scent in 10 minutes. And my husband likes it. It really is hard to capture the notes in this one. But it ends up powdery soft with some musk and a bit of freesia and very slight vanilla. I like it...But it has to grow on you, and you will like it better after it dies down.
