Michael Michael Kors for women

Accidentally, I got 1st bottle of Michael Kors at 10years before; it was pretty strong fragrance to me at that time, I loved to wear at evening whenever going out , anyhow someone comment it was very nice on me but I feel a bit over reactor of this perfume at sometimes, it depends on the weather, the humidity and your body temperature as well, I won’t say this is master piece of perfume you should have it but I’m glad to tried on it and I guess will not take another bottle in coming years.

Smells like sweet nectar on a tropical island...heavenly.
One of my favorites for summer.
I only wish it didn't wear off so quickly!

If you like strong tuberose/ gardenia- this is something you must try. I bought it blind --unfortunately tuberose /gardenia gives me a headache- and MK made my head ache to the point i could hardly open my eyes. Such a migraine. The sillage is huge. ( I recommend spraying it on your ankles! And running outside to dry down). I told my mother in law she could have the bottle.....Then 3 days later i was doing laundry and what remained of the scent on my clothing was gorgeous. Clear and beautiful.
It's really a nicely blended scent, i think it's the best version of tuberose I have experienced ever-- and if it didnt bring me to my knees in pain i'd love to wear it.

Dear Yanama, if you like attract and impress man, fry some bacon with onion!
Dear kosmoskkuka, if you look the same like your avatar, I understand fully your love to tuberose! It fits good to your image.

I like Michael Kors Michael very much, even if I do not smell the tuberose really.
If I push my nose close in the sprayed spot, I could swear, there is no tuberose at all, but a lot of strong jasmine with some sweet esters. But if smelling far away, it really smells like hundreds very sweet tuberoses. This is unbelievable.
This is a rich and very oily fragrance, put it only on your skin, because it leaves fat spots on the clothing! Sillage - very good, longevity - until you have your shower.

I do not appreciate the cup, I am always scared to break my fingernails on it!

Yanama, I must write now to your questions; imho answer is NO. I think scent should atract Your Soul, Your Spirit and Mind. Everyone can say what ever they like. Its Your Truth and Your scent.

Hello Sweet-Hearts,
now it seems my Soul is longing deeply all kinda Tuberosa scents. Dear Fizzy swapped this one with me and today got the parcel. Here are my initial feelings with Michael; refreshing, lifting up moods, strong (read deep nature), romantic. This is the scent for that angel who shoots the bows and makes people to fall in love ***<3<3<3*** This is the scent for that special moment when two beings see each others souls eye to eye and have another possibility to find a piece of universe.

This is the creamy floral heaven for me. I only have a small 7ml bottle. I believe that this is a strong alluring scent, suitable for evenings.

i love love this ONE!!! my signature. for 4 years.
but my love says its just OK .... so if its not exiting him i'll try to find perfect one... its all the question about what scent attract men....?????

What saves this scent from being very common, are the woody notes. It's a BIG floral. An in-your-face floral that can go cheap with the wrong chemistry (mine).

However, after the opening, after about an hour, I am left with creamy woods which is really quite good. I find that I cannot wear it every day. It's nice once in awhile (a concert in the park, summer BBQ) but for more sophisticated outings, it doesn't work for me.

I am in my early 40's, so maybe it is a tad young for me because I've smelled it on thirty-somethings and it seems to fit better on them. There is a serious coconut note in here even though it's not listed which makes me think "tropical."

I have to agree with everyone. Michael Kors is extremely feminine and by far the best perfume!!Its my signature scent and I usually get lots of compliments when I wear it. It lasts all day and it makes feel fresh all day :-)

I found this perfume by accident whilst on holiday in the States. I am quite fussy on perfumes and the first note grabbed on a test and later when lower notes came in I was sold. I love this perfume and is one of my all time favs but difficult to get in Ireland. Also a perfume I have been stopped in the street and asked what it is. Usually end up buying a big bottle to last. My hubby also love the men's equivalent.

I had a big bottle of this a few years ago and absolutely loved it. I haven't seen it around in awhile, is it still available? I love it and would buy it again. It is a big floral feminine fragrance which always attracted admirers, and I hated telling anyone what it was because I wanted it for myself.

TU-BE-RO-SE! Great!!

I would love to swap my body by burberry for a edp 3.3 or 3.4 oz of this....anyone

On me this is a very big floral, Like most people I also smell gardenias. I wore it on a pretty regular basis for a few years...pretty much wore it out! I got to the point of where its now in the back of the perfume closet. Maybe I'll dig it out in a few years, who knows.

At any rate on me it starts big and stays that way for hours. I mistakenly combined this with the lotion (oh never again!!)

I like it but its floralness is TOO big, a quirt or 2 is all you need. Use only if you want to be noticed!!

I love strong perfumes, but this one is headache in a bottle. Such a pitty... I do prefer my Classique. It's more wearable.

really irresistable in a good way.yummy,classy and so sexy.it is only floral but not boring.vetiver and gardenia are perfect herbalic notes in this fume,i think.very good sillage and longlasting.reminds me banana republic rosewood,but this this one is more floral.

I really love this perfume. It reminds me of gardenias, my favorite flower, though it has not gardenia in it. I do smell the coconut. Whatever it is I love it. I don't know if it has been reformulated or discontinued and replaced by Michael Kors by Michael Kors. Is it the same thing or something different?

I really loved this perfume until I moved, it got broken and the other contents in the box reeked of it. Anyway, it smells classy to me.

This is so strong floral,it is a good choice for those who love the smell of tuberose with a bit of creaminess inside. This is the creaminess side( the banana part )which made me buy this perfume and also tuberose and gardenia are my favorite flowers. But i couldnt use this perfume for more then 3 weeks ,it became overwhelming, too floral. İ didnt get any compliments about the scent from my friends and when i asked their opinion they told me that i smell just like a floral scent ,nothing original or different. But it has a strong staying power .

I won't forget the day that I was first introduced to Michael.
I was looking for a strong floral scent and was introduced to this fragrance, among others too of course but this is the one that by far made the best impression. I have only fallen in love more with it since that day.
This fragrance is great staying power on me and people certainly know you're near by. With a perfume as beautiful as this I cannot see this as a bad thing.
Funny that the notes listed here do not say Gardenia.
I will always love florals and have been on the hunt for a new one as I've recently finished my second bottle of Michael but I am yet to experience a scent so captivating as I find Michael.

Have only ever received compliments about it!

I've only recently discovered this scent and I'm surprised to find that I love it. Surprised, because when I first tested it on my skin I was put off by its initial heaviness. By the time I'd walked round the shopping centre, however, I'd become so captivated that I just had to rush back and buy the bottle!

At first, it is an assault on the senses - a strong and indistinct burst of almost fruity sweetness which reminds me very much of Amarige. After a while, it begins to soften and the sweetness gives way to something more floral - I'm guessing this is largely the Tuberose, although personally I don't find that note dominant. A hint of something fresh and slightly grassy starts to come through - not in a distracting way, but just enough to balance the florals. After a while, it dries down to a more sultry, woody finish.

It's certainly not a shy and retiring fragrance, but don't apply it too heavily, and give it a little time to let the initial exuberance die down and you'll find you're left with a quieter, more subtly seductive feel. Definitely one for evening use.

I tried this one many times and always ended up with an old tester which made for quite unpleasant associations where this perfume is concerned. I am so happy I gave it another go today. One of the perfume stores I normally go to had opened a brand new tester and sprayed some on my wrist. I have to say this perfume is gorgeous (if you like tuberose that is).

I love tuberose and already have a bottle of Kim Kardashian (which is all about tuberose). I love inhaling Kim Kardashian (I am probably addicted to the smell) but I've never worn it out because I think it is too sweet and too loud. This one is a tamer, less sweet and more sophisticated take on tuberose which I would wear out. It prefer it to Fracas.

This is quite unique from any other perfume I own. I don't often gravitate towards tuberose-heavy scents, but this one I love. It is pretty and elegant, and also has an earthy and tropical quality. It's quite musky with a hint of spice and incense. Mature, sexy, and beautiful. Staying power is impressive.

On another note, this is a fragrance that can become overbearing if you apply too much. It is an extremely heady white floral and once gave me a massive headache and nausea when I applied too much...so be careful!

I love love love this scent! I had trouble finding it in the UK. Just come back from Oz was at a show & had to ask a woman in front of me what she was wearing & it was this. I'd not worn it in 5 years so tracked it down whilst there! A very unique scent. This makes me think of velvet, Morocco, incense, spice, the beach (but in a hot sand tropical way NOT a coconut way!) & it is as far away from sickly sweet florals as you can get. I find it a sophisticated, rich perfume not for the shy! Without doubt my all time fav :-D

I remember how much desperate I was to get this fragrance, but wen i got it - felt like a waste ! no lasting power - zeroo ! Lasted maximum 1 hour :(

First impression was FREESIA just oozing globs of freesia! Now I can barely smell anything just a little musk and even that has to be sniffed nose right to wrist, not a long lasting scent on me at all, I got 2 hours out of it. Sorry Michael this is not a keeper for me.

I loved this scent from the time I first smelled it almost nine years ago. It's a wonder I've never owned it. That said, it's on my to-buy list. I have Marc Jacobs and they are quite similar but enough different to warrent having both. It's clean smelling and is perfect for day-time use.

yum! it's like marc jacons splash gardenia but soo much better :-D right now im testing the lastingpower, and this is a FBW! love it soo much
it reeks ,in a good way, imo not so boring at all, maybe at first sniff but after a few wears you'll fall in love

This just smells absolutely horrid on me. It is such a disappointment because I love MK. If you can pull this off fantastic! It just plain stinks on me.

I can't believe this was only given 1 star in the Luca turin book. . . i know it's subjective but I think it's amazing quality, very long lasting and unique.

It just makes me think of a shimmering, flowery glow... reminds me a tiny bit of gucci Pour Homme II, which is my fave ever so I guess that's why I like this..?

Only downside for me is the bottle, it's pretty boring.

It lasts forever too.

When I tried this on I was instantly transported to a fairytale bower; there was something ethereal and feminine, magical and faraway about this perfume.

I would describe this scent as sleekly whimsical--a bit bohemian but without acres of fabric and clunky footwear. Quite feminine and sometimes almost Belle Epoque. But adventurous.

Maybe I'm a bit of a heathen, but to me, this screams BANANAS - which I hate. My mother agrees, so maybe it's the family nose. I love 'Very Hollywood', but this is utterly abhorrent to me... sorry.

What is the difference with this one and the other one btw?

Alright I really love this one, but this perfume is SOOOOOOO strong, that the fragrance holds like glu! Even after taking showers and overnight etc etc.

So if you are thinking to go white floral for a night out dancing and are looking for something that will never never leave you again, this is the perfume for you!

A wonderful concoction of tuberose, violets and musky tones. Sweet, but mellow and warm. The scent does last forever and I feel like I am emit an aura of mystery and sultriness. My son hates it, but loves the bottle, as do I love the bottle it is in, I guess he can't like all the perfumes I love.
I will buy this again and again. As I am hard to please in the flower perfume department and to of stumbled upon this was a real treat for me....x

Such a disappointment!! i found out that something about this smell gives me a headache and notious feeling...i'm very curious to know what makes me feel that way. i love this perfume, but turns out i'll have to give it away..

such a warm and feminine scent. not an old one at all! very unique and intoxicating. i get a lot of the tuberose, the wood and the musk..i think it's gonna be my signature scent. perfume to die for!

What a gorgeous fragrance - simply stunning! This is not a shy fragrance though I find it's overall composition lends it to remain soft with a creaminess I absolutely love. It's beautiful, warm and inviting. Staying power is amazing, lasts all day for me. Will definitely be keeping this beauty as part of my collection. Love it!

I have a habit of snapping up fragrances I have never smelled when they are on sale or if it's a good deal.
I figure what the heck, if I hate it I can always gift it or use it as air freshener. It's a fun thing to do, you aquire a large collection, experience different fragrances, and sometimes you find something really awesome. I got a 1 oz. bottle of this in a gift set I stumbled across at Belk. It was on clearance from the Christmas inventory.

I do not like this one. I suppose maybe it's just my chemistry, as I'm pretty sure it would smell gorgeous to me on someone else, as evident by all the good reviews.

I have oily skin, which holds on to fragrance quite well. I can say the lasting power of this on my skin is exquisite (it's it always when you DON'T like it?). However, it is incredibly strong from first spray and up until about an hour later. It's a screamer, sharp and acidic. Once it finally starts to settle down a bit, I get this "dirty" nuance. It's like nice fragrant flowers that have just been planted in commercial potting soil, and the soil is very dominant and overtaking and floral scent. It smells really chemical and artificial. It's cold, and almost linear from start to finish. I don't see this as a young or fresh fragrance, but more suited to a pants suit wearing, kick ass female executive in her 40's-50's. To me it is not romantic or warm, just very brash and metallic. Very 80's almost, and it just gives me a headache.

I worked for this brand. It had a lot of fans, especially for the leg bronzer thing in the line. The large bottle could feel quite luxurious, the scent another matter. I couldn't tolerate it, too 'too', maybe pretentious is the word I am looking for. And also presumptuous, not very nice qualities I'm afraid.

This scent is such a main stay in my perfume wardrobe. It's lush, long-lasting and memorable. I sometimes catch clean smelling whiffs of iris, but the over all composition is really made up of tuberose. Not like fracas or jo malone, but a medium strength tuberose. The base of musk and woods make this a sexy scent. It's funny because this has a reputation of being a really bold scent, but to me it smells soft.

Michael kors is a great smelling fragrance i get alot of people stop me and ask me what im wearing and alot of my friends have went out and bought them some of your alls perfume great job and hats off to you all.

This is one of my favorite fragrances.It is very unique with the scent of incense and Tuberose and perfectly blended I just can't get enought of it.I just want to spray this on my sheets and around my house.I am obessed with this fragrance.I adore how I can wear it no matter what weather its never too strong always just right.I hope this fragrance will never be discontinued its amazing.

Strong Floral, strong Tuberose. It accentuates the femininity.
You have to use very little to enjoy this rich, and special perfume.

God, this is a strong floral scent! One flower dominates in this composition which is tuberose as I can see from previous reviews. I sprayed very little on the paper strip, first thought it is quite nice and put it into my pocket. After about 15min it started to annoy me so I threw the strip away and could still smell this perfume for almost an hour. It is not not a bad scent but it is so strong that it can induce a headache. Warning for those who have headaches from floral perfumes.

Four years ago I got a little bit obsessed with this perfume the first time I smelled it in Changi Airport-Singapore. I just love the tuberose from it. No need to say more...it is now in my perfume cabinet.

I have just discovered this fragrance thanks to your site and it is now one of my new favourites. It is bold, without being brash and has a creaminess about it that is so scrumptious. It smells similar to Prada on me, which another of my favourites, but is obviously more floral. I love it. Thank you for bringing this wonderful scent to my attention :0)

This is definitely one of my all time favorites! I received this perfume as a gift from a secret admirer at work for an X-Mas gift. Of course he revealed himself to me later on. He was a model and was modeling for a Michael Kors shoot. He was given perfume and cologne and he decided to give me the bottle as a gift. I have been wearing it ever since. It's been five years now. I love it. I don't think I'll grow tired of it; at least I hope not. I hate when a scent suddenly doesn't appeal to you anymore. So far, I'm still wearing it and getting compliments. Men always tell me I smell good, so I will definitely keep Michael in my wardrobe of perfume/scents!!

This is truly one of my favourite perfumes for women ever. The first time I smelled it, a girl walked into a bar and this gorgeous scent filled the space around her. I had to ask her what it was because it was unlike any other perfume that I'd smelled to date. I now wear it myself and never want to be without it. It's gorgeous. Tuberose and incense notes combine beautifully to make this perfume so unique. It's definately floral but there's an edge to it that I've never smelled before. The throw of this perfume is massive and it lasts a hell of a long time. I constantly get asked what I'm wearing when I wear this. I kinda wanna keep it a secret though...dunno why! :)

Agree, that this scent is screechy. It's pretty loud floral. However I like it.

I started trying it just by taking home paper strip and I constantly kept sniffing it while I was sitting by pc.

Today I tested it on my skin and at first it was sweetened floral in kinda sugared way that soon disappeared leaving the white florals like it smelled on paper. I would describe it as big white flower with thick petals that is swaying on wind with squeak.
It has pretty character and I would sometime gladly wear it when I want too cheer up and feel comfortable.

It stays intense and rich few hours, then fades and there's only close to skin faint woods remain.

It's kinda affordable and I see myself obtaining a small bottle of it. The bottle itself is interesting, modern, minimalistic and nice to hold.

If you're a big fan of freesia or tuberose, (or the both combined), and love strong, heady florals, then you can't go past Michael.

Michael is all flowers. Rather strong and overbearing bouquets of the stuff, but surprisingly a scent better suited for wear in the warmer months.

This fragrance has a slight shampoo-type scent, particularly in the drydown, which does give this fragrance a fresh and clean like quality which you'll either love or hate.

Michael is definitely a sillage monster. The scent will linger in a room hours after you've left. The lasting power is also pretty powerful, so less is more when it comes to applying this perfume.

From my perspective, a floral-loving one, Michael is a little too strong and nauseating for my tastes. From a distance this fragrance smells divine, however the closer you get the more it repels. If the scent had been made lighter, I'd most likely be giving Michael the thumbs up, but for now Michael is getting the thumbs down from me.

Top notes were fantastic- powerful white flower punch- but I was surprised and disappointed at how quickly it dried down into a faint shampoo smell-

It's a beautiful fragrance; I can see why everybody likes it. Well done rich floral. But it somehow seems too mature for me (I’m 26), can't imagine myself wearing it.
Despite that, I find Michael very attractive, with a positive and joyful attitude, it will definitely cheer you up!

I love this fragrance! The tuberose takes me away...to a european country on vacation. I love it! So fresh & floral.

Disclaimer:All the reviews are my own private opinions. I respect all the tastes and preferences.


Sincerely, I really like this fragrance. First I hate it but now I have a total opposite opinion.

When you splash the first drop on your wrist it smells like bursting caramel with a touch of green powdery freshness.

After couple of minutes you begin to smell its carnal side. It has a big sexuality in his juice. The tremor of your olfactory senses emerges from the carnal notes of the tuberose, peony and iris.

In someway I feel dirty, but in a sexy way. I have the feeling that I have not been a good girl.

Very strong tuberose scent.Till it dries down it is too strong and give me a headache,but after a while it is very nice.It reminds me of Amarige a lot..

This one is a very..."weird" purchase! You either gonna love it or hate it. When I first sniffed it, I found its scent rather strange and unprecedented. It's definitely not for everyone. However, the more I wear it, the more addicted I become to it. And it's not that I got used to it, because I like changing perfumes and trying new stuff. This one is sooo captivating! My friend really likes it! One the other hand my mother thought it smells like a...mice repellent!!!!! Ok, this is a matter of taste, but I think one should try it. Just go to a store and give it a try! It's really interesting and special!

Michael is one of my favourites. It was love at first sniff. I fell in love with it when it was launched in Sydney years ago. It is floral, sweet, strong and opulent just the way I like it. I even have the parfum bottle which is very heavy glass, exquisite.

This one has to be one of the worst scent around. I'm not even sure it was Michael or another one from Michael Kors. I got confused when designer have so many fragrance and spit them out like mushrooms every now and then.
I remember trying it in very classy perfume store and overdone lady was all about fashion and latest "exclusive" American designer scent: Michael Kors. she told me about tuberouse. Ok.
It happened to me the same thing with NR but there I was more lucky :-)
She sprayed it onto my fair, thin, innocent skin and it seemed to me that they poured some kind on chemical unknown liquid. My nose said: toxic!
Never smelled such a revolting concoction of strong flowers and broth-like smell, like that thing they put in Chinese food. Incredibly long lasting.
I've never dared to go close another MK scent. Once in a while I agree with Luca Turin, whose "expertise" I consider to be only a matter of personal tastes plus some education.
They give me a feeling of grossness and the bottle are so cold-looking. Now, if I ever had to change idea about MK, it would only means scent is a very strange world.

I received this as a gift but it really (street)fights with my chemistry. Strange, because it smells quite lovely & mellow on my friend.

To me it smells very synthetic & something triggers my perfume headache (wondering whether violets & tuberose are the culprits!). It is better after an hour or so, but an hour of headache is not worth it.

Sad to say, but I may have swap this away. Who wants?!

This one really varies according to body chemistry. I smelled it on a friend and it was a beautiful, unique summery floral, but when I tried it, it smelled hideously cloying with an unappealing jasmine (?) scent on the dry down. Other friends of mine tried it and it didn't work for them either, quickly turning unappealing.

The most artificial tuberose on the market, hideously screechy and cloying.
Rated one star only by Luca Turin and Sanchez - and very rightfully so - ... rated minus 1 star by me.
Want tuberose? Try Fracas!

Smells like your typical Tuberose based scent, but I like it. Smells very nice

I love this, this is so special! Before I smell this, I didn't know I love tuberose so mcuh. Now I am collectiing nice tuberose perfume coz thi sperfume inspired me a lot. What a romantic scent.

I agree. The first time I tried a tester at a store, I thought NO WAY! But I bought it after wearing it 2 hours in the store shopping. It smelled better once it mixed with my natural smell. I have noticed that the longer I have the bottle, the less time it takes to mix. Now it is the only perfume I wear. But I buy a new bottle before my old bottle is out and spray it a few times, then let it sit. I get compliments from everyone on it whether I'm at a romantic dinner, grocery store, work, or at the bar, and even though I am a smoker... they will never know!

всегда хотелось бы им пахнуть.. мой самый любимый.. другими пользуюсь лишь для разнообразия...

I agree with other reviewers that it's quite strong and should be applied lightly! I find that if I even spray too heavily before walking through the cloud, this is bitter and unpleasant for a couple of hours. So I spray lightly and walk through the mist (my usual application method with strong fragrances).

I am a big tuberose fan, and the overwhelming impression I get from this one is that tuberose is the big star, but there are some terrific supporting cast members here. I particularly like the round spiciness of labdanum, the sweet freshness of peony, and the warm richness of the cashmere wood (which I know is a synthetic accord, but little I care).

This tends to last about 6 hours on me, even with a light spray. From 4 hours on, it is mostly a skin scent that simply persists, making my day pleasant.

I just ordered a mini bottle from ebay and wished I hadn't. As much as I think it is a chic and sophisticated perfume, it is way too in ya face for me. I should have listened to what was written in the other reviews. Too floral for me but I could see how this may suit some, just not me by a long shot!

Smells rich and luxuriously feminine. Sophisticated and sultry. It is not demure. I think it's a gorgeous scent meant to be worn by people that like to flaunt their fragrances. I actually don't wear it myself, my mother wears it and I love it on her. Smells like gardenia to me, but I know it's supposed to be tuberose.

I didn't initially like the smell on my skin, but the other night I said "what the hey" and spritzed it on before I went out. To my surprise, I received many compliments on the freshness and the light, woodsy scent. Men seemed to respond to it well. Not too girly, not overpowering, just sexy and unobtrusive. I will wear it again.

don't like this one Michael and another Michael Kors, both are unremarkable and common, wasn't impressed at all when tried them

I love this scent as well! It is my signature scent...
Everyone keep asking me what I am smelling wih when I am wearing them...
It is also hige man magnet...
I had man asking me for date only because I am wearing them...

I love this scent. On me it smells like my childhood memories of the gardenias planted by the front door. So that it all I smell. I love this but unfortunately it is sooo strong a scent, it give me a perfume headache :( It is beautiful though.

Michael does amazing things with my chemistry. It's a strikingly beautiful tuberose scent that smells like an oasis on a hot desert evening. Purely gorgeous!

This is one of my very favorite fragrances. Ever since I first smelled it, I knew I had to purchase this scent. It's exotic and completely intoxicating. It smells like tuberose, spicy, and a blend of fresh, tropical notes. It's very strong, so you must use it with a light hand! I spray it on and instantly feel uplifted.
