I've been dying to try the original Ange ou Demon, and was thinking about this on the side. Happened to smell it, and it's nice. It starts out sparkling and citrusy, but very soft. Afterwards, it smells almost identical to Miss Dior Cherie (not a bad thing, I like that one too). It's lovely and feminine, but if you're looking for something a little different and a little more "out there," this probably isn't the one for you. It's nothing groundbreaking. I'm still looking forward to trying Ange ou Demon and hoping it's more unique, but is just as pleasant as le secret.

when i first smelled it on someone, i thought this is so innocent and good-smelling that i really wanted to try it. when i sprayed it on my wrist i absolutely liked le secret, you can feel that it's not a cheap & dull, but a sophisticated and nice perfume =)
it's fresh and sweet, delicate and characteristic at the same time. tea, lemon and jasmine make a good bouquet which is pleasure to wear ;)
the only thing i regret is that i can hardly feel it after several hours. (maybe just because you can't feel your own scent if it has good chemistry with your skin)
le secret is on my wishlist, of course...!!

I received this as a leaving gift from my last job.
What a good choice. Soft, subtle, delicate and airy.
Beautifully put together.
But the only thing is, it just doesn't last! I apply it even with the lotion!!! But it just doesn't last.
Great for day wear and spring/summer. Not for evening, as it doesn't have great staying power.
But it is a great scent despite this draw back.

Just purchased today and I really think I love this scent! It is a beautiful fragrance, at first it's sort of citrusy and I can detect the tea but then develops into a fresh floral a little sweet and slightly woodsy. To me it is unique and doesn't smell like any other scent I've tried. I'm in my 40's and I think it is appropriate for any age! So far it has great staying power and I could wear this year round.

My first impression was: "lovely"! After my excitment went down a bit, I thought it may be not that great, but it is very pretty. Smells fresh, fruity and sexy at the same time. It may be not very original, but still. The scent reminds me of oranges. I like it a lot!

I sniffed this one when perfume shopping this weekend and was back for samples the next day. I've tried it on three times now and have to say I will definitely be purchasing this lovely scent!
The lemon, tea, and white flowers make the opening an indulgence. It reminds me of spring--things in bloom, a wonderful breeze and optimism. Middle notes see the lemon take a backseat to the jasmine and peony. The drydown solidifies the scent by adding just a touch of wood.
It isn't very strong, but I like it that way--fresh, airy, unoffensive. It does portray the angel with a little something hiding underneath, for only the adventurous to discover, but maybe not a demon! It is too gentle for that. :)

This one almost disappeared on my skin. It's a little disappointing when you apply the fragrance and spend the next hours trying to smell it.
It's funny, 'cause once again, this might be only a body chemistry issue. Reading the reviews here, I would never imagine Le Secret would be like this... In my opinion, the original Ange ou Demon is way better!

I am totally in love with this smell! There is everything i've always searching for! Lemon, peony make the frafrance flirty, at the same time jasmine brings sensitivity and sex-appeal. Wonderful smell! It's totally within the conception - the woman, that is the mystery for everyone. Contradictory charade with good and evil side of the personality, with angel and demon living in her soul simultaniously.
As for me, the best scent of Givenchy for now.
But... to widespread, unforturnatly...

I dislike the original, Secret is nice, but nothing more really..it wont offend anyone, but it isnt unforgettable..for the price I paid, i wish now I would have passed on it!!
01/22/10 13:51:14
Wow... the first time i smell it, i know i will like it. Pleasant, flirty and naughty. but, only if you're young girls. for ladies over 30, back off!! the notes start with fresh and floral opening, then settle down to warm and flirty notes. The jasmine play a big roles here, supported with peony. The lemon almost fade, but the freshness is still there.
Is this my favourite? no, but i do have a 50ml bottle of this. ange ou demon, angel or demon, and yes, the perfume really support the name. the anges smell is there, peony and jasmine. the demon are also there, lemon & woodsy. the devil here is the naughty demon, not the hardcore daredevil cruel demon.
Compare to the original ange ou demon, i prefer this one more. The original are too powdery for me. Smell like grandma perfume, suits ladies ages 35++. this one more suit on young lady. and i find my self suit this more.
Beleive it or not, i do agree with some reviewers here mention this perfume similar to Miss Dior Cherie Blooming Bouquet(MDCBB). And i do have Miss Dior Cherie Blooming Bouquet. Yes, they are similar. But MDCBB are more floral, this one is more flirty. i do find the peony in MDCBB, but it wasnt mentioned in the notes here.
if you like MDCBB, you should try this too :)

OK, continue w/ the last comment I post last night (I was a guest.) I was commenting for the top notes, which was cleanly lemony.
About half an hour, or an hour later, I smell strongly sweet flower smell. Then 5-6 hours later, I got up, and smell lighly sweet flower sense. I think it's like the middle notes, just lighter.
But I still agreed on my comment last night, this is a girl in a white summer dress dancing around in the garden. No noble woman for me. But it's light, and perfect enough to wear daily in daytime :)

I got it as a present today. "le secret" is lemony, clean, and not too strong. I like it! (Eventhough usually I'm into sweet sence like vanilla!)It's suitable for day perfum. But I don't think it smell like noble woman. I think it smell like young, innocent girl having fun dancing around in white summer dress in a garden.

I read all the reviews after I purchased the perfume and was thinking twice for buying this before smelling the scent. It arrived today and I love the fragrance. It is very clean and fresh not floral at all to me. This scent is not over bearing like some where you think you can taste them by spraying it on. I am not sure why this is so hard to find but it is and only a few places have this in stock. Would buy again.
01/06/10 14:39:02
It's a very safe scent...nothing exceptional. Very soft and comforting, if that's what you're into.
12/22/09 13:11:50
As far as its lasting power believe me it's morning to night! I spray myself after having a shower in the morning and till evening I can still smell it!
I know for some people le secret was a disappointmen because they were expecting a perfum as mysterious and complicated as the previous ones (ange ou demon)but for me, it's the best ange ou demon ever because it's fresh, intense and though it seems to smell commonly it leaves a combined classy aura. I love this perfum!

I like it.Its the only ange au damon I would purchase.It s sweet,ellegant and innofensive,but I don t have a clue about its lasting power.For daily use.

Ange ou Demon Le Secret is pretty, but not nearly as unique as the original Ange ou Demon.
Although not particularly outstanding, this will be widely liked because of its inoffensive, simplistic and safe floral blend.
I sense a majority of the notes listed. Peony, jasmine, green tea, soft lemon and white woods are all there, however the patchouli is very mild, not nearly as dominating as I would have liked it to be.
Le Secret is sweet but not overly so. The fragrance is very balanced and feminine. It has an almost fresh and clean like quality which I do admire.
Overall, the lasting strength and sillage is good, if not better than average. All in all, this is a lovely, soft floral which tends to be shy rather than loud. A very basic yet enjoyable casual scent in my opinion.

Nothing! but nothing with original Ange ou Demon! Seems like all budget went on beautiful Uma and the rest was just recycled with some changes. Maybe they meant this when called it "Secret"? Ridiculous!
Although it's not a fiasco but a serious faliure. At first - nice citrus and tea notes but then something like a diluted version of Vivara Black edition of Pucci which I love. Nice. Plesant. Quiet. All this lasted for whole 15 min! No more.

Nothing to do with Ange ou Démon (which I love). It should have another name, for sure. There's no secret at all, neither angel, nor demon, :(
These new salmon-coloured-juice scents (Hypnôse Senses, Le Secret, Scarlett) are a disappointment to me.

To me this perfume smells very similar to Extravagance D'Amarige and a hint of Le Monde Est Beau, very fresh and citrusy, it's nice and it is long lasting. I will purchase if I find it for half the price.
11/02/09 13:04:32
On me this smells the opposite of classy, it smells like something for under 25, and I just don't get the complexity of the original, which is wonderful! Might be nice for young people or for the summer. Doesn't seem to fit in winter, although they brought out for this time. No for me.
10/26/09 09:17:45
an usual perfume..but i expected more from Givenchy...it's too simple...a little bit fruity but fresh...remainds me a cup of green tea with jasmine...
10/26/09 09:05:14
boring cheap smell!they make fun of me!!the worst givenchy perfume!
10/23/09 10:48:46
do they put drugs in them now? this is just too addictive. it might be a bit comercial but i just can't keep my nose away from it. yummy!
10/23/09 01:07:32
At the beginning this perfume has disturbing notes for me, and I cant exactly say what they are. Something that resembles unpleasant smell of water that has stayed still for a long time. Thick, dusty, stale.
As the time passes this shabby scent develops into orange and tea delicacy. But the time that takes until that shiny moment is way to long. The base notes reminded me slightly on Chanel Allure, more like a really bad duplicate. Maybe I`m mistaken.
Anyway, bad experience with Le Secret, impotent edition from Givenchy!

an usual floral fruity fragrance, a little reminds me Miss Dior Cherie,but lighter
10/01/09 13:47:22
This is just too ordinary (though pleasant). Givenchy really made a mistake when decided to release it as Ange ou Demon flanker. Ange ou Demon was really original fragrance, at least worth of experiencing, it's base on my skin is the best smelling ever!
But this.. well, not bad, but just too much expectations are because of it's name. If it would be released under another name maybe it wouldn't become so 'notorious' after short time when it was released.
In ad we see Uma Thurman using the fragrance and her reflection in mirror becomes 'fatale'.. I like the ad, but you really won't feel like femme fatale if you wear this fragrance.
It's light, floral, inoffensive fragrance that quite lacks character. The tea and lemon (actually I thought of Earl Grey tea when didn't know notes, it was kinda bergamotee) lasts approx 2 hours then I got very faint common florals with barely noticeable patchouli.
Top reminded me of Flowerbomb a little bit. I'm not saying it's similar, just like two people from the same town- one floral, easy to like, other to be candied tea with vanilla and fun character.
Lasts not very long, I wish it would be more intense (my usual sentence ^^). It's easy to like, but boring. I expected something else...

This is the notorious Ange ou Demon Le Secret?!I don't like it.It's nothing special!this smell is so ordinary!I do not smell al those notes.I get only peony!Big disappointment!Definetely not for a ''femme fatale'' as it is advertising!!!
09/29/09 09:15:29
i find it to be a little gourmand and also after it dries down a bit masculine like an unisex fragrance. the top is very citrusy.
09/26/09 05:06:15
awful! just plain awful! i had to check and see if it's realy Givenchy and still could not believe it. or maybe it doesn't work with my skin chemistry. i sprayed a little and felt it was something really cheap and intoxicating. maybe i'll give it a try some other time to see if i feel the same about it.
ps: why do we have so many versions of the same fragrance? isn't one or 2 enough? it really makes you consider the "originality" of some designers... they're remaking something over and over...

This fragrance surprised me. I tested it wice3 and still I am not sure why I like it.
I was caught unaware taking that I don't like Givenchy scents alot. I gyess its the lemon/ tea/ peony combination....i find it refined and sofisticated and modern... a wolf in a sheep skin as the add implies.
great scent for a girl in a power suit and stylettos

I discovered this fragrance recently after I got given a sample of it. I would never have gone anywhere near it as I hate the original Ange ou Demon, but I was extremely pleasantly surprised! The initial lemony note reminded me of "Mr Muscle", but the dry-down is absolutely beautiful, woody and fruity... I am still in 2 minds about buying it, because it lacks staying power. I went into a perfume shop yesterday and sprayed a good quantity of EDP on my wrists... 2 hours later, the drydown was heavenly much too faint for my liking...
09/13/09 07:47:26
diffrent from ange ou demon edt and edp version,with smooth soft flower peony and yet a syntetic tea mangnolia,and when i sniff again i it smell nearly same to er.. miss dior cherie . perfect for a noble lady and oustanding person.or
and bout the ad.the model lady is she from the er pulp fiction ...?uma thurma... just guessing ..
