Pleasures Intense (for women)

Trvevil

Luckily in this one there aren't much blackcurrants. I mostly feel lily and ylang ylang and peonies. There's also something woody that reminds me maple 'flowers' or whatever.. This one is very floral and quite light to be worn at summer. For me it's quite special because of unusual for me maple smell in it. The maple on me smells very leaf like and reminds me the smell of autumn especially after 2 hours. Sillage is best first hour then in kinda settles down, but not completely shy close to skin. Lasting power is average. While middle note phase I was walking home and thinking what exactly I have there I thought- it smells like exotic flowers. While flowers aren't so exotic if look at the notes, but that's anyway interesting. Bottle is nice (I like the color), but I think it should be colored reflecting maple leaf color in fall season, since it smells like it so much. Also I agree that it's not that intense as name states

when my mom got this, i was about 16. Somehow it made its way onto my dresser...and i doused myself in it daily. At the time, i just wanted A scent to call my own. Today, i consider it to be way too floral and fresh for my taste.

Juicy, bursting with sweet blackcurrants. Their intensity drowns out the floral notes (apropos the previous review, I personally can't smell any lily-of-the-valley at all!). The fruit note is so realistic that I can almost taste it, and kudos to Estee for that -- but the fragrance is too flat. If it had a melody, it would be moody and monotonous, in a minor key. Glum plum.

For me, this is the ultimate lily of the valley-fragrance. This is one my skin a juicy-fresh-tart sigle note of this flower, which lasts and lasts.
This is not a man-magnet on my skin, it rather brings me comlpiments from women, so I think it is a perfect fragrance when I want to earn sympathy, or for go shopping with friends. Not a scent for seduction, for me, even if I originally tought, that it will be something seductive. It whispers purity, freshness, nice-ness, a groomed feminity bottled. I think I should wear french manicure with swarovsky crystals and a peach-colured kashmere top, and so on, with this scent. Even if it doesn't attract men ( in my case), I like it. My best friends and my mom loves this scent on me, so I use it for them and for myself.

It is such an alluring scent. Smells like grapefruit and a touch of pepper in the beginning to me but not surprisingly there is none of these ingredients in the pyramid. The peony and lilly give the real cool elegancy of the scent, it's kind of bold and sexy elegance. The floral notes touch my nose so so delicately that I really feel like drinking a fresh juice !!! I am wearing it in winter and it makes me feel quite comfortable, optimistic and open-hearted.

It's quite strange, not necessarily in a bad way.

On my skin it smelled mostly like candied strawberries and flowers, which is not really my taste.

I tested this one and I like Pleasures Delight better. With that said, this one is ok but nothing special. Definitely better than beyond paradise, of course anything's better than b. paradise (yuk). I think that's the worst floral perfume I've ever smelled and the worst from Estee Lauder so far that I've tested.

Smells like peonies, like the original Pleasures, but there's something else in it that makes it smell. . . cooler? Is it the styrax?

I like it on the initial spray, and for about 2 hours afterwards, and then. . . had to wash it off. Too floral. And I'm just not a floral gal.

This is gorgeous. It's not as intense as its title. Infact, it's quite lovely and romantic. Remind me of J'adore of Dior, but not exactly the same. It doesn't smell like original pleasure at all. They should give another name for it. I'm getting bore with the bottle.
