Famous beauty Paris Hilton launched her fourth fragrance for women, her 7th fragrance in general – Can Can. The fragrance is inspired by the film Moulin Rouge and the song Lady Marmalade.

The fragrance is floral-fruity, oriental, and of course, very sensual. It opens with clementine blossom, black currant and nectarine. The heart unites wild orchid and orange blossom, while the base brings soft musk, amber and precious woods. The fragrance was designed by Jean-Claude Delville in 2007.

I tested this in a store today and I wasn't so impressed with the opening notes which were quite heavy. Didnt linger long on my skin,fragrance reminded me of a smoke-filled disco(lol).However, the scent may suit a more mature lady. Not for those who prefer "fresh" scents.

There's much that can or cannot be said about Paris Hilton, but the girl does has a nose for perfume. All of her fragrances smell beautiful, but I think Can-Can smells the best. It's sweet, sexy, enticing and it lasts long. It's definitely lovely enough to draw compliments. I just have one problem with it........It smells identical to Victor Rolf's FlowerBomb. I love Flowerbomb and I will admit I was a bit disappointed that Can-Can smelled so much like it. Of course Can-Can is alot cheaper than Flowerbomb, so you might want to buy it instead of "Flowerbomb".

I am just wearing Can Can now...
I disagree that they are similar to Chantal Thomass Perfume ...
I used to have Chantal Thomass Perfume (two bottles..) and they were typical fruity floral perfumer, sweet warm but in my opinion it had nothing to do with Can Can...

I agree that it smells very sweet and warm like cotton candy and a creamy vanilla and caramel desert...
I also feel some cocoa... really coton candy mixed with some cocoa.. cocoa-caramel...

It reminds me a lot of Flowerbomb or Black XS...
Although Black XS on my skin is more...skin scent...
Can Can is more like foggy scent... I can smell it all around myself thinking what it is...
It is celebrity perfume, it is very sweet, and copycat... to my surprise I like it!
Although I started to like it after one hour... just because of the nice cotton candy/cocoa fog....

It is not really sophisticated perfume, but yummy scent that you want to spray from time to time, for a change... to escape into some dreamland...

I guess when I finish BLACK XS, I will go for cheaper Can Can...

It's strange ,
the notes listed here have nothing in common with Chantal Thomass Perfume but i swear they are the same.

CANCAN is liked the "watering can" edition of Chantal Thomass,it's liked they use 1/3 bottle of CT and pour water in it and make up a perfume called CANCAN, dear sexy and beautiful miss paris danced her way to the stage and smile with CANCAN on her hands.

If you like it ,go buy it.
As for me ,a big yawn.

whats so funny is people are saying that it stinks or i thought it did smelled good at first but each persons body and skin reacts differently to perfumes and everyone needs to try on perfume before purchasing. what smells good on your friend may not work as well with your skin and natural oils.

I LOVE this scent on women it smells very sweet and warm like cotton candy and a creamy vanilla and caramel desert

This is way better than pink sugar

It's way too sweet.. The smell gives me the headache and make me sick.
05/27/09 07:55:25
 
I agree with gucci, it smells like a desert to me. Its like sweet and remids you of cream, or caramel, I just love it!!
05/19/09 19:08:58
 
Can Can is very worm, fruity floral, and sweet. When i say sweet it's very creamy like frosting and chocolate. It has a nice long lasting ability it can be easily compared with Fantasy by Britney Spears. But i have to say it's the most mature scent from her line
05/18/09 11:28:41
 
I tried this one on in the store, and I must say, I love it. It's soft and sweet and very sensual in my opinion. It is a bit sugary and may be overpowering for some, but with my body chemistry I find it to be just right. As far as her perfumes go, I do think this one is my favorite thus far.
05/18/09 06:17:24
 
This one smells exactly like Flowerbomb only at a fraction of the cost.
05/18/09 04:56:46
A friend of mine wore this fragrance like 4 days ago and actually it smells quiet nice on her. It smells kinda like a blend of vanilla,cream and something sweet. I tried this one on a couple of weeks before my friend began wearing this one. But alas when I tried it on it clashed with my body chemistry. It's a sweet,slightly gourmandy scent. Now I usually love gourmand scents it's just that this one does not really work for me.
05/17/09 11:35:23
 
can can is so worm and floral it kinda smells like Fantasy by Britney Spears i i i don't think it smells like hard candy it's more like creme candies like caramel and chocolate

I was in a perfume department yesterday and I was interested in various women's perfumes. I definitely would take note of any woman wearing this 'can can' I was not fond of the others, but for me the cotton candy the cinnamon it was very very nice
05/09/09 13:36:18
Can Can by Paris Hilton brings to mind blackberry cupcake frosting and cotton candy at summer fairs..it is absolutely delicious, very sweet but in a delicate, floaty kind of way..it is an incredibly uplifting fragrance and makes me happy everytime I wear it. People say it smells nothing like "the moulin rouge" or "the can can" but what exactly do the moulin rouge and the can can smell like? This fragrance is supposed to capture the sensual and flirty essence and nature of the moulin rouge and it definately achieves that. Everyones interpretation of what the moulin rouge SHOULD smell like is obviously very different but why should that be an issue, its not supposed to smell like it, just be inspired by it. Can Can smells like sweet, light, colourful oriental berry sugar and it is an absolutely gorgeous scent :)
05/08/09 02:55:21
To me, Can Can smells like a slightly less sweet version of Britney Spears' Fantasy, with alittle extra added spice. I was just reading the reviews here, so I thought I'd bring it out from my perfume collection, just to smell it for myself, cause I had already forgotten what it smelled like. I'm wearing it right now.... It's nothing special, but it's pleasant enough, and quite nice for what it is. :)
04/16/09 15:30:31
Can Can is one of my favorites. Surprising, since it IS Paris Hilton. It is irresistable and lasts a very long time. I put it on for a function around 6pm and the fragrance was still there after my shower the next morning. My husband loved it and kept sniffing me all night.
04/10/09 20:14:58
 
Her other fragrances to me are just a bunch of cologne, that was made by a socialite. Then, this cute Can Can perfume came along, and made alot of my friends anticipating.
One night, when I was out with my friends, we tested out Can Can in a mall. It has blackcurrant notes with some musk in it. With both combination, I think it fell flat. I thought the smell would be sweet and seductive, but just like Paris, this was cute, but too sweet, and not special.
03/29/09 03:14:10
 
sweet light and cotton candyish,long lasting and one of my favorites.I like the light bulb shaped bottle it is cute and the lotion smells good too!
03/28/09 15:06:36
 
A nice fragrance. I use it at work in midday to give my spirits a lift. Doesn't last long.
03/24/09 19:15:21
This one doesn't remind me Pink Sugar (I have that), but it reminds me of Fantasy by Spears, or precisely like Fantasy and Ocean Lounge cross... It's like sugary fruits with a hint of berries. Yum, but nothing Can Can or Moulin Rouge :D I wanted myself fragrance like that (I also like Fantasy but Fantasy is another story)- fruity like Escada's Ocean Lounge, but Escada goes 'rotten strawberry' way in drydown, so this is better, it's sweet but freshy, must be that citrus blossom in heart notes, I definitely feel it.

guest_that's hot
i tried this fragrance yesterday.... at first i can't smell a thing.... but after a few while i can smell the sweetness of this fragrance... it smells very fruity which i like a lot.... the lasting power was very very good coz it stays on my skin although i took my shower.... i am definitely gonna get one of this... or maybe ask it as a present.... the drydown smells like midnight fantasy by britney spears.... love it so much...
03/18/09 06:12:50
 
well i'm not a Paris fan, but i have 2 of her fragances and this one will be the number 3, when i tried i was very surprised. I have to buy it and i don`t care if this make more rich this girl.
03/15/09 02:01:27
 
i'll admit that when i got this as a gift i was horrified (i'm not exactly a fan of Paris Hilton and celebrity perfumes don't really appeal to me.) however, i was pleasantly surprised. the scent was sweet, but not overly so--kind of like cotton candy i guess i should say? anyway, the lasting power was crap so i couldn't even really smell the base notes...but overall, this is just an average perfume, nothing spectacular...what do you expect from paris hilton? it isn't bad though.
03/08/09 23:21:26
This is one of those perfumes that I'm always procrastinating over. One day I'll love it and then the next time I try it, I'll change my mind.

This is definitely my favourite fragrance from Paris Hilton. Unlike her other perfumes, Can Can smells much more expensive and not as sickeningly sweet.

Although this fragrance is still candy-like and aimed at the teen market, there is something strangely addictive about this perfume. When you first spray it, it doesn't exactly sweep you off your feet, however you find yourself sniffing your wrist for the rest of the day and thinking how nice it smells.

The scent is really casual, girly and fun. The lasting power is also quite good.

Despite what other people think, I actually like the bottle design. In my opinion, simplicity is more. I also believe that the advertisement and theme inspired by the Moulin Rouge, suits this fragrance.

What keeps me from buying this is the synthetic drydown which smells like plastic on my skin. It's such a shame because I loved wearing Can Can for those first few hours.

I would recommend this fragrance to young girls or very feminine women who like their perfumes to be flirtatious, sweet and playful.
02/17/09 21:13:33
This was way to sweet and powdery, it seems to get better with time but the sweet smell was just to overpowering.
02/10/09 00:30:40
 
I was very surprised when I tried CAN CAN. I had been expecting Something that was stronger & heavier on the floral notes. In reality CAN CAN is a very light & sweet fragrance (Until now I'd thought that HEIRESS was the lightest, but this beats it).


The entire fragrance line has been fun and wearable, but CAN CAN stands out for me. It's sweet but more 'grown up' then PARIS HILTON, JUST ME or HEIRESS. My favourite so far from Ms Hilton (or rather, her ‘team’).



** If you decide to test it in the store, apply it to your skin, rather then a strip. On the strip it smells like a PINK SUGAR clone. On skin you’ll be able to detect the subtle floral notes.
01/26/09 16:01:46
 
This one is very nice and yummy,i think one of the best of paris hilton collection but has no staying power.:)
01/14/09 16:52:08
 
I think can can is nice everyday perfume. Nothing extraordinary but has very clean and floural scent to it. I give it 4/5 stars
01/14/09 13:22:05
Cheap perfume but her best. CANDY with a hint of floral.
01/13/09 09:03:12
Can Can is a sweet candy like scent. very likeable and wearable. I really liked it, I sprayed it on my shirt in the store yesterday and was really impressed. I figured I would like it I had already put it in my head when I first saw the bottle online that I would love this. Nice sweet Candy like. Love the bottle too... Girly girls will like this fragrance
12/01/08 05:34:19
I bought this one on internet intrigued by its description and its name 'can can'.
I am very disappointed. It doesn't smell that bad but it says nothing to me. It is like 'chupa chups' or 'cotton candy', and it is not my style
11/21/08 00:29:18
Reminds me a bit of Pink Sugar. I smell cotton candy in this fragrance. It smells good on others, but it definitely is not for me. My body chemistry cannot handle scents like this. I love to wear the original Paris Hilton fragrance though.
11/10/08 20:08:58
I got disappointed with this one: the smell is cheap and very artificial. All I could figure was a sweet smell, like sticky candy.
11/04/08 05:48:44
A sweet scent indeed, but it had no spunk to it whatsoever. In other words: weak and nothing special. And I just don't get why it's called Can Can? The Can Can is something fun, flirty and a bit naughty, but I thought this was not:( The staying power was also very poor in my experience. If you like sweet scents with more depth and a bit of punch to it I'd rather recommend Britney Spears' Fantasy line which also has tremendous staying power(I'm not really a fan of Britney as an artist, so I'm not being biased btw;p)
10/21/08 14:03:04
If you've ever seen the add for Can Can in the magazine, I would say that the scent does not match the ad. First of all, the citrus is gone after 30 seconds and you're left with a heavy, musky dry down. Don't go for this if you're looking for a pure, clean, refreshing, innocent scent. It's not too complex and doesn't really smell "expensive". However... the scent is unique, not noticeably headache inducing, and the staying power is strong,
10/02/08 13:56:34
the good thing in this is the sweetness, but nothing special, i would wear this but i wouldnt buy, maybe better that "just me" and the others, but my favourite from her is heirress
09/27/08 07:16:30
It's ok, a nice, everyday scent to wear to work, sweet and inoffensive.
There are other everyday fragrances, so I wouldn't recommend buying specifically this one.
09/27/08 01:26:55
Yeah, I agree it's one of her best, plus: I love the bottle so much !! :)
09/26/08 02:56:39
 
i like that one while im wearing it i feel like stars and when you wear it you feel like expensive girl
09/22/08 04:52:15

This is a very nice scent but has no staying power.

I smelled this one someone else and thought it had a soapy, clean scent so I bought a bottle for myself and on me it smells more woody then fruity or soapy. My mother-in-law complemented me on the scent, so I bought a bottle for her.
08/10/08 11:45:19
I think this is the best among all her perfumes. On me I noticed a gourmand-y scent, something that smelt like caramel smothered peanuts. I like it!
08/02/08 06:30:28
I love Can Can and I've worn it everyday since I bought it a few weeks ago. It's warm, sweet and sensual without being too sickening.
08/02/08 03:56:19
I smelled this today and it is much more of a cleaner scent than I expected. Not bad, but not something I want.
07/30/08 15:09:46
There's something in here that smells like "Pink Sugar" by Aquolina, but maybe a little more floral-fruity. It has less sillage than "Pink Sugar" but some people would probably consider that a good thing.
03/22/08 07:43:17
I do agree... of all of the fragrances she has produced so far... this is by far the best. It isn't something I would by for myself but it isn't terrible like the rest of her attempts.
