I wore this throughout middle and high school. I always thought it had a nice, clean scent, but ever since I heard someone say it smells like beer I can't un-smell it. Oh well!
This perfume really is just awesome. It was my first perfume ever and I'll always love it for that reason. I grew up with it and it hasn't changed a bit over the years, it's extremely soft and so pretty. Fruity but not like strawberries, more like fruits you'd find on the beach, if they did grow there. Reminds me of the ocean air with perfumed starfish, if that did exist ;) I think it's suitable for all ages because I've always worn it and never felt out of place, my mom has always worn it as well ever since I can remember and we both still love it.
Just got this tonight and i have too say it is sweet and sexy i kinda like sweater scents attimes all in all i will enjoy wearing this! Way too go Liz!
I'm wearing this today as its a good "office" perfume. Friendly and soft with a lovely fruity powdery drydown which is warm and inviting. It lasts a long time on me and after a few sprays in the morning I can still smell it on my wrist when I leave work! Smells peachy on me with a waft of white flowers - very tasty!
I remember wearing this in the late 90s. I used a whole bottle. Gonna have to go buy one and see if I still like it! I remember it being a night time scent.
Fruit salad on my skin. Nothing to write home about.
I used to wear this back in high school when it first came out. after smelling it on a friend I tried it on myself and really enjoyed the dry down. it is the definition of a casual wear scent. I dont think I could wear it now, but it certainly was a go to when I was young.
From a guys perspective: One of my co-workers wore this a couple of years back. I could smell it on her from about a foot or two away, and guess what? I was smitten lol. leaves a cloud of sexyness its its wake. It didn't hurt that she was really attractive too of course :P .
This scent does not "wow" me, but I like it. It smells to me of woods, water, flowers and clean freshness. That is not a bad combination at all. It is excellent for work, for an office worker, teacher, anyone really. It is great for just running errands, to make you smell nice and clean. I don't know that I will repurchase, but I will happily wear what I have. If you are looking for a slightly tart, almost outdoorsy, fresh scent, this is possibly it.
I should love this according to the notes, but I find this to be a very generic safe floral. I like it, but I don't love it. I smell a blend of florals and a tiny bit of wood. Very cool and clean. I think this is suitable for most occasions but nothing special.
I bought this last year as a Summer fragrance and used the whole bottle! Very nice for work although not deep enough for nighttime wear. I had a few compliments when wearing "Curve" although don't know whether I liked it enough to buy another bottle. I like to ring the changes with my fragrances although I have stuck to a few "old timers"! It lasted well on my mature skin and I didn't think it was too young for an older lady!
I've been hooked on this since it first came out. it's far from boring! it's a fresh, watery sort of floral without being a headache-inducing "white" floral.
This was one of my first perfumes to every own and purchase myself when I was in my 2nd year of high school. I love it, the florals were not too strong, and I am normally sensitive to strong floral scents, so light scents/ body sprays are more for me. I used up a whole bottle back in the late 90s, but I don't think I would every purchase again as there are new and more exciting scents available now.
a middle school scent for me. still love it though.
I remember wearing this scent in my late teens. I used a light hand with it, otherwise all the flowers were a bit too strong (especially the Peony). Unfortunately, something happened and it began to smell like nothing but alcohol on me. Specifically, BEER! I was so heartbroken.
Left it alone for awhile and tried again in my mid-twenties, but still got the beer smell :-(
Farewell forever, Curve, and thanks for the memories...
ES UNA FRAGANCIA FLORAL MUY FRESCA Y LIMPIA, EN MI SE SIENTE CALIDA Y MUY FLORAL. ES EXQUISITA¡¡¡
Too many cooks spoil the soup, and I think in Curve's case, too many notes spoil the scent--blase, "safe" notes at that. Layering truckloads of citrus doesn't necessarily equal a fun, youthful, spirited--or unique--scent. I have owned drug store Calgon body sprays that had more personality. The initial green apple and lemon notes are wonderful, however. It's just a shame they had to share a stage with such mediocrity!
this isn't an expensive perfume by any stretch, but yet its fresh and clean smelling. i haven't worn this in a long time and i actually like it better now then i did way back. it lifted my spirits when i put it on this morning. i like all the notes in this and they work well together. it turns into a soft, delicate scent that is pretty long lasting. this has lasted about 6 hours on me so far and i can still smell this lovely fragrance.
Let me start off by saying that I don't dislike this scent. It's a pretty fresh, light floral that's really casual and easy to wear. The problem I have with it is that it's nothing special, and is just sort of flat.
I loved this scent when I first got it as a present back in seventh grade. I think this is best suited for (in my opinion) younger girls. This was great when I was about 14 and didn't have much perfume, it's fresh and more mature than a cotton candy/fruity kind of scent that a lot of young girls wear.
This would be a great first perfume to give to a young girl in junior high/early highschool. This is a would be for the younger girls whose tastes are more evolved, and who don't want to wear something like Pink Sugar by Aquolina.
I used to wear this scent almost everyday in my late teens, and I always loved how fresh and clean it made me feel. If you love citrus, than this fragrance would be great for you! I personally love how the florals and citrus fuse together for a great clean scent. Overall, I think it's a great fragrance!
If you like a citrus fresh kind of fragarance, you'll like this one. Not terribly unique but definitely wearable.
a friend gave this to me, I use it to fresh up my room after I come back from college. I dislike it as a perfume but like it as a air freshner.
The scent is a bit high pitch sometimes, which I blame on an over abundance of Ylang Ylang or freesia. BUT it's still a lovely scent! It' not something I would wear all of the time, but it's scent befitting of a nice mild spring day. It smells like a scent that would be carried on the wind . . . when the floral scents aren't too over powering. I would spray with discretion. A little goes a looong way.
Why did I actually wear this for awhile when I was a teenager? Even thinking about it now makes me want to sneeze.
On the plus side, the men's version brings back fond memories of all those cute high school boys...
I have been wearing this fragrance for almost 14 years now. It never gets old or goes out of style in my eyes.
I think Starlight-Girl's review of this perfume is way off track! Curve smells absolutely nothing like horrible chemicals, baby powder gone bad or soap. Curve Crush smells like baby powder; Curve doesn't even smell remotely like it!
Curve is a very nice, light and clean smelling floral. Usually I'm not a big fan of floral scents but I like Curve a lot. It's not a run of the mill, ordinary floral and I think it's much better than more well known ones like Estee Lauder Pleasures (YUCK!!) which tend to be boring, bland and far more generic smelling.
The main note in Curve which I detect is lily-of-the-valley which I really like. It's a great perfume for everyday wear and men seem to really love it, probably because it's light and very feminine. The other plus points are that it's very reasonably priced and has great staying power so all in all it's a really great scent.
I love this fragrance,It's very affordable,very citrus smelling,it reminds me of a very warm romantic summer....If you love a warm and citrus perfume buy this!
I am currently nauseous from trying this one 5-10 min. ago... even though I washed it off right away. (I really wish I was joking. :(
It was on my list to try and earlier I already tried it's other brother and sister Curve Crush and Lucky You.
Blechhhk :( so sick.
I should have known better but I akin it to, having to take your medicine. It was on my list. I had to try it at least once before tossing it JUST IN CASE it was good. Yea... taking horrible medicine. I knew I didn't want to... I was afraid to... cringing.. but made myself anyway.
Ok onto better things. :) (and some pepto. :)
This smells like = Horrible chemicals, baby powder gone bad, and soap. :(
Not a good experience.
Oh yea... I showed it to another family member as I was trying them to see if it was me... by the time I showed her this one tonight...
she made a horrible face, and angrily said, "Would you stop showing me the ugly ones?!" ~ sorry. :(
eeks... sorry curve. :( Not fun.
Next. :) Did we ever like these? I never had these ones. I am now glad I didn't.
Isn't perfume supposed to make you feel happy and smell good? Why do they make ones that make you sick? Everyone I showed cringed on these and gagged. So frustrating. :( Also maybe I am allergic I don't know. not fun. Anyway...
Too bad I don't know anyone who loves it, I would give them 3 free bottles of perfume lol. they are small anyway.
Oh well. :)
At one point I had three bottles of these since it was the number one gift giver LOL
Now I have two bottles as Chaosmotion said it is kind of a generic casual smelling perfume. However, I still find it a good perfume basically you cant go wrong with curve. So if you just need to spray on something and cant decide Curve is the one.
Ok, so this is not a rare or expensive fragrance, but it is shockingly good! It is feminine, clean, and crisp. It smells a little bit of freshly milled wood, water, citrus, and clean floral.
This was very popular in the late 90s and early 2000's, but it is not as popular anymore. I used to wear it when I was in high school - it was much better than Clinique Happy, which EVERYONE and their dog wore, which just smelled like bug spray on me.
Although Curve is not really classified as a "sexy" fragrance, I was always, ALWAYS complemented by men while wearing this. They always told me I smelled sexy. So that can't be a bad thing, right?
I am reviewing the EDP, not toilette. I have never tried the EDT so it may be different.
This is a very inexpensive fragrance that is great for work or casual days. It's a fresh, powdery rose that could never offend anyone. Very light, yet quite long lasting for what it is. Spray this on at 8am and you will still be able to smell it faintly on your wrists in the evening.
Since this isn't all that popular anymore (I would say it's heyday was about 7 or 8 years ago) it would be a great signature scent for a teen girl or young woman who likes a light scent. Its different from the popular fruity florals of today, but still very wearable and modern.
I bought this fragrance online after reading a few suggestions.....which was a mistake as I found nothing special or long- lasting in it. A nice everyday smell, though , which seems to evaporate after 5 minutes or so....hopefully I'll be more lucky next time.
I wore this fragrance in high school when it first came out it has a sweet and soft scent. Every time I smell Curve it reminds me of high school.
Found this today for a good price and I was happy! I wore this some years ago and I forgot it smelled so good! I smell crisp,clean flowers and sandalwood and it lasts and I always love the tin cans of the curve perfumes because they are more sturdy than a box and they look cute on my dresser. I have quite a few from the curve collection but I really like this one and Curve Connect for women.
Ok I am going to add a bit more to my review below.
This fragrance is one of those with a faint pencil shaving scent in it.The citrus is also prominent throughout the fragrance along with lily of the vally & lotus.There is a peachyness behind the citrus as well & all in all it is a very light citrusy floral fruity...with a pencil shaving background "lol"
simple scent... good for everyday but i guess the components of this are too harsh on the skin coz it's burning mah skin most of the time but nice scent!!!=] xoxo
This was my sisters fragrance before she died so I had to buy it so I can spray it & feel her with me.
It is a nice scent.It's floral but it's not to strong.I can actually say that it's peaceful & safe.
This was not awsome on me so I gave it to my Mom and it smells sooo good on her. She is very picky this is light fresh floral but not sweet. try it!
The first time when i smell this curve was for men, and i liked and i thing that in a women fragance will smell so good, but in my opinion is not original fragance, and sont last too much. I feel disappointed for curve women.
This fragrance isn't anything extravagant, but I still really like it. It's really good for casual, every day wear. It's a pleasant smell, nothing too strong and offensive about it.
It has been so long since I smelled this one but from what I can remember nothing special.
Blah! I don't like this boring blah of a perfume I had my bottle for 6 years and was glad when it turned yellow and smelled like alcohol so I tossed it out! I must have bought this back when I was short on cash?
I LOVE THIS PERFUME IT HAS A VERY CLEAN SOFT SCENT ABOUT IT
I got this as part of a gift set when I was younger. I wasn't crazy about it then, and I'm still not to this day. It smells artificial to me, like faintly floral cleaning products or air freshener. Although the notes sound nice, the actual scent is muddled and uninteresting. Some people would enjoy this as a casual scent, but this is not for me.
This isn't the greatest scent... kind of a generic casual wear fragrance. I mostly wear on weekends with jeans when I can't decide on anything else.
