Forever Mariah Carey for women

REVIEW FOR FOREVER PURE PARFUM VERSION:

this smells completely different from the eau de parfum.


Take out the Neroli & sweeten up the green apple giving it a wine like aroma.

Lotus, Gardenia, and tuberose are the in alignment in this fragrance. they create this super flower that smells expensive, elegant, & just breath-taking.

i'm not lying this smells so much different from eau de parfum. its much richer, the notes are realistic & natural, the Pure Parfum is just in a class of its own

$250.00 for .5 FL OZ (15ml) it's in a class by itself in this collection. If you ever come in contact with this version of Forever Please test it out you will be amazed by the difference in Quality.

THE EAU DE PARUM DOESN'T COME CLOSE TO THE PURE PARFUM VERSION IT'S ALMOST SHAMEFUL.

it's floral with green apple whispers (sorry green apple isn't the star in this version)

it's scent strength is 24 hours plus.

I like the scent. Wouldn't get it though.

Just to point this out, the bottle's kinda fugly.

This is really a Lotus Flower scent to tell the truth. It is the purest note in this fragrance, its also the reason why the florals are so clean instead old ladish.

i'm surprised it's not rated as one of the most notable notes cause you can definitely smell it when forever settles.

I guess people are confusing it's clean, heady, and floral aroma with the heart notes.

Notes that stick out (Green apple, Lotus Flower, and Tuberose)

For those who didn't know
Soapy Smell = Lotus Flower

Caution. This perfume's better as a tester you try in the mall, not owning a whole bottle! I've had one for almost a year and as time goes on, I reach for other perfumes in my collection instead. In fact; I'm thinking of trading it or giving it to a friend because it's only collecting dust. (I might toss it actually) It's sad because at first I liked it finding it crisp and fresh, a goodie for spring! But my nose was fooled and 10 uses later that 'crisp' I liked, turned into a sour tart. Even though the perfume life is no longer than 20 mins, it's still enough to crinkle my nose giving me a headache. :(

When Bath and Body Works did away with Velvet Tuberose I was heartbroken. It was one of my favorites and they were discontinuing it (surprise surprise). I did some reasearch and found a few scents that had tuberose listed as one of their main scents and lo and behold, I found Forever and was quite happy. It is veyr much a white bouquet but there is something about it that makes it unique. I really like this a lot. It reminds me of a fresh spring day running through a garden. So pretty and feminine. It won't replace my beloved Velvet Tuberose but Forver is pretty close.

I used to be IN LOVE with this fragrance. I remember the first day I got it it was my first time falling in love with a floral fragrance. Fast-forward to a year and a half later and the juice turned a yellow color and when I sprayed it on my skin it had a bitter and very sour smell to it. UGH! What happened to that crisp apple, Tuberose and Gardenia I had smelled before? This was like a rotting HOT tuberose on my skin and it made me sick to my stomach to smell! I gave my bottle away. It was FULL. I had only used about 7% of it. Gave my 6.8 oz lotion away, also. So sad about this :(

I really like the smell of this perfume but there's SOMETHING in it that bugs me a little....
Oh well, I'll probably end up buying it evenually lol

Very floral, lots of tuberose and gardenia, but with some lighter fruitier notes as well. Some tuberose based scents tend to feel heavy to me, but this one is lighter. At drydown, it becomes a bit sweeter and quite a bit lighter. I love the bottle too.

It's a nice creamy floral, almost soapy, I'd say tuberose is dominant. Simple and feminine, girly, without being too youthful. Something to wear when your not feeling too daring. Really I got this for the bottle, it's right up my alley. I love art deco and I love natural crystal formations, and this seems to capture both. Most of my fragrances I keep in a drawer so they are not in sunlight (which can damage fragrances), but this one I leave out so it can sparkle. Be careful with the cap though, it breaks easily, all the testers I've come across have broken caps. For my own bottle I always grip by the neck of the cap, the gold part with 'Forever' written on it, that has kept it safe. ;)

yer the bottle is not very appealing in my point of view, but the smell is really yummy and nice, i think it sort of smells like watermelon, but thats just me. I REALLY REALLY like this sent for summer and during the day as it is just so fruity and wonderful.

I found it to be a sweet white floral with a sharp synthetic edge in the dry-down. I preferred the opening where the apple was most dominant, and the fragrance felt a bit fruity. The tuberose and gardenia are equally dominant in the heart, where it starts to give me a bit of a headache. Granted, I do have trouble with white florals, so on the right person, this could be really pretty.

Forever starts of with dewy apple, neroli, and Lotus Blossom. The dewy apple accord isn't tart but more of a apple juice or wine quality, Neroli gives the top that soft masculine sporty feel, while Lotus blossom creates a water Veil keeping it from being overly fruity.

The heart is an everescent combination of Gardenia and Tuberose. Gardenia is head of this center while Tuberose sneaks in quietly and gives the heart as well as the entire fragrance its creamy elegance while giving it a warming effect.

The base of musk and exotic woods comes off kinda candle smelling which to me adds a chemical smell. It smells like angel whispers the glade candle when the base becomes close to the skin.

As an inspiring fragrance Creator, I have to give the nose behind this fragrance an applause because they were able to create a soft blend with well known heady notes.

This one turns very aquatic on me. It starts off sweet with apple but then it smells very watery. It almost smells like one of those Eternity Summer versions. I find it lasts on me but it was very expensive when I got it. I don't think I would spend a huge amount of money on it because it is a little bland. It is good for summer because on some people it has a marine vibe without being too masculine or sporty. It is one you have to try for yourself because it may stay very sweet on your or the tuberose will amplify on your skin. I can smell the tuberose but it is not as strong as Britney's Radiance. Forever is a fresh perfume so nothing like M or the lollipop Bling range maybe the blue lollipop bling comes the closest on dry down that one turns aquatic for some people.

the whole thing smells like flowers to me thats all. it smells good to me. but it doesnt last only about 2 hours or so.

Another one of those man-magnet perfumes! Lol

EDIT: I wear this when it gets around late March though early May. This past summer I had put it on before I went to bed and met a male friend of mine the next morning for a bike ride (I'm a road cyclist). Well, it was a warm morning and after we finished a sweaty 45 mile ride he looked at me and said "How some you smell so good after a ride?" My reply was "I'm a girl. I'm supposed to smell good." He told me he kept smelling this nice aroma when I was up front pulling. He asked what I had on and he told me it smelled wonderful. We both had a good laugh but I think it's pretty amazing that this stuff lasted through a sweaty bike ride. Lol Thanks for the superb lasting power in your frags, Mariah!

Absolutely loved it the first time I tried it, wore and reapplied it all day long only to end up with a MASSIVE headache around 8pm that night. Couldn't wait to wash it off as I felt that it seriously was the scent that gave me the headache.

I'm seriously sad because I love everything about it, the zesty apple, the florals, the lingering musky warmth - but the headache was nasty so I probably won't be using it again.

forever to me is too strong, feminin. and long lasting.

eww I cant believe you said this smelt like kim kartrashion's fragrance ! It smells nothing like that. I love forever and hate kims because it smells exactly like micheal kohrs nasty fragrance

smell like kim kardashian fragrance

Fresh, melon-y/waterlily, slightly synthetic plastic blahhhh is the opening of Forever, I’m again disappointed with a celebrity scent. Somehow, it reminds me a lot of Benefit Laugh with me Lee Lee, the difference is Lee Lee is woodier, and comes with a much cuter bottler (the real life bottle of Forever is quite tacky).

It does get less synthetic-smelling as time goes by, and somehow, if you like watery white flowers, waterlilies and melon concoction, but not much jasmine, Forever is not bad. However, personally I find melon smell sometimes appear to be like rotten smell, which is a big turn-off to me.

I was expecting a woody end for change; however, it is just melon and waterlily dragging along.

It’s not my cup of tea. However, on the right person I can see Forever been a nice, feminie, maybe even subtle floral perfume. Well, not for me or any melon or watery floral haters.

too soft, feminine , nice i tried it but i don't remember the scent :( I'll try it again

One of my absolute favorite go to scents for any time of day or evening. I find this fragrance to be so soothing & pleasant to my inner being. I cannot express in words how beautiful this fragrance hits me. From that first spritz to it's lingering dry down, I never get tired of smelling this scent. On myself the actual first blast of scent last about 4 hours, but the dry down lingers even the next morning, and it is still a lovely smell. This speaks volumes about the quality of this perfume. I hope it is never discontinued. I have a backup but to me none of the bottles are large enough! I love the futuristic bottle design too! Everything about this fragrance pleases me.

My favorite Mariah fragrance, I always get compliments! It is the perfect floral fragrance for spring. I also think it reminds me of Kim Kardashian's fragrance, but not as heavy.

I have a giant bottle of this..
Fruity, floral, chypre.. like most celebrity scents. a fusion of DKNY Be Delicious and Dior Miss dior Cherie eau de pritemps.
I do like it, but I think it smells a bit cheap.
Also I get a rash when i wear it so I'm slightly allergic to it and more than slightly allergic to the memories of the man who bought it for me!
hmm

I really like how it smells though it doesn't have lasting power. It also makes my chest break out horribly and so I now spray my clothes or wrists. I will buy it again but want to find a better deal since Walmart sells it for $20. And it is $9.99 on Amazon.

I just got AMAZING NEWS! Mariah just Twittered "yes! Working on a new fragrance right now actually! "

The lasting power of this perfume is impressive. I love tuberose so I enjoy this perfume

This to me is the best perfume in MC's collection. I find it nice enough and elegant. The bottle is very nice too. It is definitely an aquatic smell for me. Often described as a "gardenia-tuberose" scent, but I don't get it as such. If gardenia and tuberose are present, they are very watered down. Apple and musk is what I get mostly out of this fragrance. Ok, maybe a bit of tuberose as well.

Update: I have been very undecided as to whether I want to buy this perfume. Today I sprayed in on myself - neck, behind ears, etc. It was a very generous splash, he-he, and OMG, I love it! I want to buy it for sure eventhough it doesn't have a great staying power.

I LOVE the bottle!! but, thats the only thing i love, i mean the perfume isnt really my thing, it smells a little too waterd down to me in honesty, is not a bad perfume, but not something i would go out and buy x

EDIT: Okay, so i changed my mind its a really mature scent and i really like it now :P x

This is one of my favorite, go to fragrances. I have about five or six different scents I wear regularly and this is one that I always go back too. It is perfect for day or evening and lasts a long time.

i almost couldnt smell this one with one spray. i had to reapply this a few times...and the heart is def the star of the show. sensuous gardenia and tuberose dominate....but there is a tart green apple note i can smell as well. its pretty, very feminine...much like mariah's looks. i like this but i won't repurchase. too many other complicated dirty juices out there for me lol...this is too fem and safe for me

SOPHISTICATED AND TRULY ELEGANT FRAGRANCE MADE BY MARIAH CAREY. MY GIFT SET JUST ARRIVED TODAY (ALONG WITH MY MIDNIGHT FANTASY SET). THE BOX ITSELF IS SUPER GORGEOUS, AND THE BOTTLE IS VERY ELEGANT AND THE SCENT...WOW! I'M INLOVE, IT'S VERY FEMININE AND CLASSY...TWO THUMBS UP FOR A JOB WELL DONE ON THIS FRAGRANCE. 10/10

This was beautiful on first spray, a sweet--but not too sweet--creamy floral. But then there a sharpness developed, which reminded me of the fragrances my 14 year old daughter favors--very "young" in my opinion. I sprayed some on her, and she loved it. Now it's in her collection.

i have this perfume and i love it..it smells really good

First of all, I'm a big fan of Mariah Carey since I was 13 y.o. in year 1997. I love most of her song, but unfortunately not for her perfume. I usually hate celebrity perfumes because they have nothing special - not original, cloying, not classy enough and too sickeningly sweet. Most of them gimme headache - except few of them which I love.
I love Luscious Pink by MC, really nice frag. Then I'm excited to try Forever. The bottle speak differently from other MC perfume. Well, I don't really like it at the first sniff. Too much flowery, very sharp floral I guess. I get neroli, gardenia and then tuberose. I do like tuberose, but just in some right blended perfume. In Forever, i just can't accept it. Doesn't work for me. I keep sniffing the paper strip for hours, but still not fall in love with it.
It's been 4 days now and I still have the paper strip. The scent still detectable. But very much softer, elegance and very warm n comforting, kinda cozy. I believe the lily is spoken now, and grab my attention. However, it smell similar to some other perfume that I used before, or maybe tested before. Plus, not really my type either. Sillage, good. Longevity, good. 7 out of 10.

this is definitely her best fragrance! It smells just amazing:clean,fresh,light, beautiful! And it lasts sooooooo long! the bottle is one of the most beautiful bottles I've ever seen!

I bought this perfume yesterday, It has an unforgettable fragrance and thats what we want as women, to be remembered FOREVER, and the bottle is beautiful! You have don it again Mariah MUAH!!!!

I love my gift set! The bottle is gorgeous and the scent is just amazing...very diva-ish!

I'm not a fan of tuberose; I find it overpowering and I nearly always suffer from a headache when I wear it. So it's recently become a challenge to myself to find a wearable tuberose-based fragrance. FOREVER has a fruity opening, so I tried that first as I thought that the fruit notes would freshen and lighten up the florals.

I was right about that; the opening of fresh, life-like lotus and juicy, slightly sweet, yet tart apple notes is gorgeous. It's both energizing and fresh whilst being understated and feminine.

And when the tuberose note does develop, it still seems fresh and juicy. I can also detect the gardenia, but I'm sure there's another fruity note hidden there too; it's hinted at, but is too subtle for me to separate. Maybe they added more apple notes? I was loving FOREVER until it burnt through to the flat base, I found it very disappointing.

Whilst the musk does continue the freshness to the fragrance going, it also overtakes the mix of woods. I get a slight note of sandalwood, but that's it. I thought it was a let-down.


It's a light fragrance considering it's a white floral, so the lasting power reflects that. It burns down within four hours. Not great, but it seems average for modern fragrances.


I felt totally let down by this one. The sweet/sour fruits and the fresh florals are surprisingly complex yet subtle, at least they were until the musk came along and white washed over everything. If you happen to be a fan of musk I'd highly recommend this to you, but for myself this is a no-go.

If your planning to buy someone a fragrance for Christmas I think this a good bet. It's fresh but slightly sweet, isn't too strong and is quite inexpensive for a EDP.



Are you a fan or Michael Kors Very Hollywood EDP? Here's a more purse friendly version.

OMG I LOVE THIS!!!!!!! I received some samples of this one and it smells sooo good on my skin...and the sillage is perfect. I can't wait to get a full size bottle of this one!

Edit: I bought a 3.4 oz bottle and already I have used half the bottle. I'm in love, this works so well with my body chemistry and I get compliments from the men with this one, so definitely a keeper for me. The tuberose, gardenia and green apple stand out the most for me.......lovely!

i love this fragrance... i went to an elizabeth arden counter to get wrapped with love hilary duff.. but it was out of stock.. so i tried this on . and it smelled amazing.. that i bought it.

yay! i'm so excited to have this in my collection! i will have the gift set with lotion yay i'm inlove with this fragrance and the bottle is stunning! when i tried it on with the sample....my family and friends asked what a beautiful fragrance i'm wearing....and they're shocked to know it's from mariah! my aunt asked his hubby to buy her hahaha! my friends immediately went to the dep store where i had my sample for they wanna see the actual bottle and they fell inlove! oh my gaaah mariah made a good job with this one! I adore it! a compliment maker!

I sample this everytime I go to walmart or target and I am still not impressed! It does not have any depth to it like her original M it is plain and common and boring. Also no lasting power at all so I don't even want this one.I am just about done with celebrity fragrances anyway on to the more valuable stuff like Dior and Givenchy etc. I don't have time to keep playing catch up everytime one of these washed up singers come out with another fragrance to keep the spotlight on them!

This shits too strong, Its like a stinky smell that lasts "forever".

It's a white floral for sure but very well rounded and creamy. Good lasting power. I wll buy it with a good discount.

This perfume smelt like freaking bubblegum on me..... it's generic!!

but it interests me to see many good reviews..... i just don't get this scent.. maybe i should try it again..

This was a dissapointment cominf from Mariah. I tried it out the other day in cvs/pharmacy and it was not pleasing. It came on sweet then it turn verry aquatic within seconds. It reminded me too much of Davidoffs Cool Water. Which I never was a fan of. Not worth the money.

This smells very sharp and aquatic on me, almost like Calvin Klein's Escape. I don't see any marine notes in the listing...maybe it's the Granny Smith apple accord coming through? The amber comes through almost too sharply, not warm at all. I'd almost say it's a beachy scent. I'm not in love with it enough to purchase it.

Forever is the only fragrance from MC's line that I like. On my skin, the notes of apple and gardenia are the most prevalent. The solid, woody base is a nice touch that slightly seperates Forever from the endless array of other fruity florals on the market. This would make a nice, safe gift or a good everyday fragrance. I believe that it would wear well on most women. The longevity and sillage is medium. Forever is likeable and wearable, but far too ordinary for my liking.

Here is a fragrance that doesn't knock my socks off to say the least, but is pleasant enough to wear on a daily basis. I think the saving grace in Forever for me is the neroli. I also do like the way the gardenia and tuberose are subtle amongst the musk and woods. Vanilla is not listed in the notes, but I am sure it's there. Not bad.

I was brought kicking & screaming to this fragrance by a salesgirl intent on selling it. I would never touch something as daggy as MARIAH CAREY on my lonesome. Oh what an insuffereable snob I am! And it would have been to my detriment because this scent is truly lovely.

It is not especially modern (tuberose?), particulary considering it is a celebrity fragrance, but it is not old-lady either.

Similar to Eau Demoiselle it seems to be a reinterpretation of something traditional & true. Not too sweet, not too imposing. The sexy little bottle doesn't hurt either.

I am going to have to try it again on its own (I already had a full complement on board before being corraled into trying this) before I make a final decision but it is in the 'favourable' category for now.

Floral fruity. Nothing special. A gorgeous bottle. But the fragrance dispointed me:/ this is nothing special. And it gave me a migrene!

Floral fresco e suave,do jeito que gosto.Amei.A fixação é ótima também.
No Brasil ele custou bem mais que 50 US (100 US),mas valeu a pena.

Yeah ure probably right BSF. And we'll probably LOVE it so much to care about the name. I have loved all her previous!! : )

I just heard about her new one too, and to be honest, it's not half as bad as Britney's "CIRCUS FANTASY" Yes, us fans know what it is all about, but I would never tell someone that ask me what perfume I have on "I got on Circus Fantasy!" That just sounds wrong on SO many levles! I think the Lollipop Bling title will grow on us just like Circus Fantasy did.

Her new one coming out in June is called LOLLIPOP BLING. I'm not diggin the name but I do want to try it. If I love it I'll just say I'm wearing Mariah. : )

Got my gift set 100ml for 48.00!so happy!smells so feminine.so soft.and got the tuberose.gardenia.apple musk on me.summer and glam perfume!

i just had this perfume last week! only can i say is 'WOW!' the bottle is like a beautiful crystal... the scent its like very glamour, sophisticated, sexy & sensual... love this perfume ever!
good job MC! ;)

Dear mother of god it smells amazing!!!!!!!!!!!! My favorite perfume of all now!

Getting this tomarrow at Macy's can't wait!

I GOT MY FOREVER PERFUME... AND I COMPLETE ALL HER FRAGRANCES FROM M, M LUSCIOUS PINK, AND FOREVER.... I USED M FOR MEMORY STUFF, M PINK FOR LOVE, FOREVER IS LIKE YOUR IN A LIMO...

I been wanting this perfume forever for quite sometime I just recently heard they are launcing one by her called forever Mariah from a friend of mine who works at walgreens anyone know of that?

This fragrance is a love at first sniff. Very sophisticated, classy and feminine. When i tested and sprayed it on my wrist, I suddenly felt like wearing a very expensive gown walking in hollywood red carpet...I really felt like a diva like Mariah. It lasts all day. The bottle is gorgeous too! M' Luscious Pink and Forever are Mariah's Best fragrances. M is my favorite of all though.

This has to be Mariahs best perfume to date. Its a sparkling warm, rich, big white floral that is conversely a warm fragrance, but suited to summer wear! Top notes of the apple comes shining through and give this a crisp sparkling quality, the neroli adds a welcome softness that is sweet but not cloying. In the base the rich creamy white musk envelopes you softly, delicately, which is a nice contrast but so complementary to the sparkling apple notes, the musk grows as you wear and I really love it. The base has just enough woody notes to keep it grounded. The heart is the real seller of this fragrance though - tuberose and gardenia are there and they break through as the *real* attraction of this perfume - rich, big white florals that are just beautiful.
There is a classy, gentle elegant sexiness to this perfume that I just love and have received many compliments wearing this.
This has absolutely beautiful sillage and really good longevity. I have to agree that this is a lot like Juicy Couture (original, I have them both) but this is sweeter, a little less fruity and somehow more preferable to my nose. Juicy Couture has a patchouli note that is a little unforgiving in that fragrance as well, Mariah's Forever doesnt have it and it remains softly sweet and much nicer without the patchouli.

The one thing I dislike about this is the idiotically overstated lid, it looks like something you could stab someone with :| The bottle is just beautiful and very ergonomic, it fits beautifully in your hand and easy to use. But that lid is just a tad overstated.

I was lucky to pick up 2 x 100ml bottle gift packs with the mini 5ml pure parfums (which are delicious!) and body lotions included, and I will definitely repurchase when these sets are done.

I have this perfume and let me say it's my signature scent! it's so sexy and sensual, my boyfriend bought it for me and I love it to bits! Almost finished my 2nd bottle and will get another one.

Forever is fresh, sweet, and white. I get lots of green apple- not the candy sweet kind... it is more fresh and sparkling. All else I can really pick up on is clean tuberose and some creamy gardenia with some light woods in the background. Very simple, but pretty nonetheless. Unique... not really, but I still enjoy wearing Forever. This is the best of Mariah's perfumes in my opinion. It reminds me a little of a less complex Juicy Couture, with the strong tuberose, gardenia, and fresh(er) fruit.

guest_Chesley. There is a pure perfume Forever by Mariah Carey that is a dabber. Its $250 for a .5oz bottle. Its on elizabetharden.com

I passed this and saw it was another MC perfume so give it a shot since I LOVE her Luscious Pink. The bottle was impressive enough but one quick blast and it was like, "oh, ok..." It wasn't bad in anyway but nothing to notice. It left no impression what so ever. It's pleasant enough for anyone. I think very few will find it special or something to be excited about. For most, I think you'll find it's just....eh....nice.

is that all forever perfume has a dabber? not spray in every ml?

i just bought this forever perfume today and i am in love with it. i never smelled anything like it before and im already getting compliments. i like this better than my versace perfume and less expensive too. i honestly think this is the only perfume that actually lasts without respraying it throughout the day. thats a big plus in my book

Me regalaron el perfume y muy rico floral y no pasas sin dejar la rica frgancia , es sueve , fresco y juvenil

I try to stay away from celebrity fragrances, but when I smelled this, my first thought was "this could be my signature scent!". It was sooooo beautiful, floral and musky, and it's rich and light at the same time. The colour I would pick is gold, no questions asked. It is classic and modern, emphasised by the art deco bottle (although I must admit, the plastic makes it look a bit tacky). But when I applied the perfume to my skin it lost a lot of the lustre, which it had straight out of the bottle. Quickly it developed into a very ordinary, "celebrity" fragrance. The lasting power was poor too.

its not that great and i hate tuberose..it's not so bad here but i have to say this is a very forgettable scent in my book

The bottle is actually glass. It's the top that's plastic

I love its clean feel with a sense of beauty.

Thank you Mariah.

This scent is fresh alright, but I can't help but be disturbed by this fragrance. There is something in here that is so strong, it makes me want to gag. Okay, not seriously, but I really really REALLY can't stand this... What a stinker, YUCK.

This perfume is both fresh and floral. What I admire the most about this fragrance is that the tuberose and gardenia do not overpower the fragrance. The notes are perfectly balanced with a hint of green apple that adds a little sweetness. Even though,the fragrance has been introduced during the fall season it is a total spring/summer fragrance.Not to mention the fragrance is long lasting and tastefully packaged.

I'm not a huge Mariah fan but, even I have to admit that this is sophisticated and sexy at the same time. At first I wasn't sure but, as I continued to smell it, I started to really enjoy. It was very light but the floral scents made it very sensual. I give this two thumbs up..Good Job Mimi..

to me, forever smells very fresh and clean. kinda like bounce dryer sheets with a bit of floral. i didnt mind the scent although the bottle is a very large akward shape!

Whoa... thought I'd like this because I love M and Luscious Pink, but this is definitely a step backward. To me, it smells cheap, sharp, and just plain strange (there's a note in there that really repulses me, but it's not listed and I can't pin it down... almost a musty smell). I like apple and light floral smells, but this just doesn't do it for me.

i finally got my bottle today! i got the 100ml bottle gift set. the set also cam with a 15ml parfum bottle and the body cream. i love this scent. i work at a hospital and this perfume is light enough that it doesn't offend anyone, yet it lasts all day. it really is so beautiful!

At first sniff I could have sworn I'd smelt this before. Not surprising that this isn't unique, but it's pleasant none-the-less.

The apple note is quite dominant in the opening, giving Forever a rather fresh and vibrant quality. The tuberose and gardenia are present in this fragrance, however they do not steal the limelight, they prefer to linger softly in the background.

Perhaps I find Forever similar to the DKNY Be Delicious series. It's twin would have to be a fresh, rather potent fragrance dominated by juicy apple.

Must admit that the bottle in real-life is not dainty and pretty, rather it is quite bulky and if you happened to purchase the 100ml, it would most likely be the biggest bottle in your collection. The bottle design is in one word; odd.

Overall this is a nice, youthful and refreshing fragrance that has great lasting strength and quite a powerful trail of scent. I recommend to apple lovers.

I bought Forever before I smelled it,since I love and own both of MCS other scents. MISTAKE!!! I'm sorry, Forever smells so old ladyish,even manish such a letdown!!! LPink is my FAVORITE scent EVER!! I am trying to sell my huge bottle of Forever on Craigslist..No luck. Love/hate me for this review, its how I feel.

ok so I went shopping with my friends today and I smelled this again but I sprayed it on me instead of just sniff it on the card..and I have to say it smells a whole lot better on my skin...i think i might end up getting this..smelled real good!

I went to Macy's today and was immediately intrigued by the bottle! LOL, I than explored further to only discover such A PRETTY FRAGRANCE! It is beauty in a bottle. Very feminine, yet with a hint of sophistication. Just a splash.
Considering that any kind of apple is not happy with my chemistry, the granny smith was not very prominent at all. What really worked and remained on my chemistry was the gardenia, lotus and amber.
Luv it!

This was a really nice surprise. I tried it today and Macy's.

1st the bottle is really nice. It's large too, so if you are tight on space think before you buy it.

The scent is super pretty and does not smell of candy. More light floral that ANYONE could wear.

Finally got 2 try this at Macys today and....I LOVE IT!! It is just like Marc Jacobs for women but its really rather nice! Something of a surprise from a celeb! Its really lovely and the tuberose does not distroy it at all! Thank u lord!! I really love it and so does my mom! She never thought in a million yrs that she would love a celeb scent but she really really does! I just might have to get it for her 50th bday!! Its totally ageless and anyone can wear it! Wonderful job M and EA! I just love the bottle too!

This perfume is so lovely. It's not strong, but it's not so light that you can not smell it. All 3 layers blend so beautifully. Elizabeth Arden has truly made a masterpiece with this one.

i own M by Mariah and it really is not one of my favorites. when Luscious Pink came out i was excited cuz the notes sounded delicious and it was a little more up my allie, but i didnt buy it. FOREVER is AMAZING! I went to macy's yesterday and sprayed it on my skin. the top notes are juicy, but in a very beautiful femanine way. there is tuberose (which i usually totally despise) in the heart of the perfume, but it doesnt last that long, and it not heavy at all...which is why i hate it. the dry down/base notes are beautiful. the whole compostion is beautful. i am a huge floral fan, and this did not dissapoint. and it lasts and and lasts! even through my shower! its crazy! i really do suggest this perfume...

Leaving Macy's now. I bought this scent. It's....very different frrom everything else I own, but different can sometimes be a good thing. I decided to switch it up this time. I'm not sure if I would've gotten this if it weren't Mariah's scent, but I'm glad I did. I'd like to have lots of different scents for my mood

This scent is kinda tuberoseish, but it isn't choking me with Tuberose. It's very subtle. I can smell other things in it. I'm greatful for them keeping the Tuberose tame. I've been wearing it for 30 minutes now and I can barely smell the TubeRose anymore. The bottle is beautiful! Good Job, Mariah :)

Smelling this at Macy's today, I have to say that this is a very nice scent and could definately be an addition to my perfume wardrobe. This is the only Mariah Carey perfume that I have liked so far. The tuberose in this one is very appealing and doesn't overpower the scent at all. It is soft and subtle but radiates and has a welcome prescence.

Edit: When smelling this, it reminded me of something that my mother used to wear back in the day....Sand and Sable!! LOL! I knew it! The two have very similar notes but Sand and Sable is much stronger.

These are note the right notes at all, here you go.

Top Notes: Radiant
Luxurious accords of Neroli, Lotus Blossom and Dewy Green Apple create a refreshing, distinctive blend capturing Mariah's sensual appeal.

Mid Notes: Glamorous
A rich floral heart embodies Mariah's warmth and sophistication through a symphony of Tuberose and Gardenia.

Base Notes: Mesmerizing
A unique, sultry combination of White Musk and exotic woods provide a depth like Mariah's unforgettable voice.

Wait! She bought it anyway and tried it on and now she loves it! She said you can smell Tuberose, but she smell all the other notes also! She also said that after some minutes there's a note that she can't quite places and it smells sooooo good. She also bought Circus Fantasy

The bottle is very different from her other bottles of perfume. I like floral scents, just as long as they're not overpowering. The ingredients seem interestingly enough, but I don't own too many scents with tuberose. I can't say that I don't like it, because if its done right, it can be enjoyable, but I guess the scents depend upon the wearer's tolerance of it. I definitely would like to give it a try.

i agree with you guys...the tuberose and the apple may ruin it for me o.O...the bottle is weird looking the other bottles she had were cute!
