If you like Aldehydes you will going to have an affair with White Diamons. Is a mildly heavy fragance but not so overwhelming, i think Anais Anais or Calandre are heavier than this.
White Diamonds power lasting is great and you should allways apply just a little of this beauty scent in your skyn.
Let's Face It, There must be a reason why this is the best selling celebrity fragance of all time.


I agree with MissK that it's totally along the lines of Chanel No 5, Anais Anais, and Agent Provocateur as well, because of the aldehydes and powder in them. But for myself, it's (quite obviously) more special than that. This is what I always come back to, to remind myself of my love for scents. It reminds me of Christmas time as well.
To others who adore it: You go for the gold with this beautiful, classy, elegant scent. To all others: Frankly my dear(s), I don't give a damn!
:-)
Men seem to be very drawn to it for some reason. They do say that men don't have as good a sense of smell as women which again would highlight how strong this fragrance is but then again maybe coming from a woman who has been married too many times to count she has found just the right mix of ingredients to make men stand up and pay attention and she's bottled it. (laugh)
Elizabeth looks good wearing diamonds but not even she could smell good in this.

I think White Diamonds was produced in the wrong era since this seems more approapriate for the 1920's - 1950's.
I can never love this since there's an underlying 'granny' factor in this.
This lasts pretty long, so apply liberally.

Lasting power stays on for a very, very long time.

Seems like anything that doesn't smell candy sweet, grassy or metallic is considered "old"...too bad. We used to call it classic.

And it did not catch my attention, though I was sampling it several times before - though always in the store and never on the skin (I was too afraid, lol).
My friend gave me a bottle and let me tell you something...I changed my mind after a while. Use it very, very sparingly, with certain clothes ( I realize that we put an evening gown on may be only a couple of times a year, if that - but still...) - and you may find your genie in the bottle.
It is from the same army as Chanel 19, Cabochard, Estee - powerful,green,smashing, makes you want to straighten your back and blend in with the quality.
Not for jeans, not for flip flops, not for summer, not for the cheap bling. For a romantic dinner at a fancy place.For the Halloween adult party. No sprays. 1,5 dabs. And guts.
And you`re a Goddess!


I agree with your point that the body chemistry counts for a lot. However, I ahso think perfume choices are often borne out of generational preferences.
By the way, I love Cinnabar, Shalimar, Coco- which have been designated, at one time or another, as old lady by reviewers. I say- wear what you like and what likes you!

I first caught a whiff of this intriguing scent on a client a few years back and I was mesmerised by the heart of it. I immediately ran to the nearest pharmacy to purchase the biggest bottle I could find. I started wearing with fatuous fervour as I had fallen madly deeply in love with how WD complimented my chemistry and thankfully the intoxicating heart I had noticed on my client also developed on me. I have a nostalgic relationship with this perfume thesedays, there is about a quarter of the fluid left in my mega bottle, and sometimes (not often) I find myself reaching for this one although my nose has evolved somewhat in the last few years, still a pretty wear and always attracts compliments from women (funny hey), ironically when this was my signature scent (age - mid to late thirties) most women who knew this perfume on other people did not recognise it on me, therefore affirming that ones' chemical relationship with a fragrance is unique regardless of their age.

Sillage is impressive and staying power is excellent.
With this fragrance, its pot luck whether it will smell good on your skin, on me it smells pleasent and lingers for ages.

I can only say that for fans of Chanel No.5, Anais Anais or soft, powdery scent lovers, this may be for you. For haters of aldehydes, stay far away from this one.



scents stays constant not for the faint
