I wore this perfume when it was launched in the late '80s and have such fond memories that I recently purchased an un-opened and sealed bottle off of ebay. I could immediate suss that the top notes (amalfi lemon and tangerine) have turned, as citrus tends to do (and I mean, it's been 26 years!). Gradually the dry-down produced the familiar powdery oriental smell that I remember, but I do miss that initial citrusy spritz. Is it wearable? I can't really tell yet; I think I'm too afraid to commit to putting it on for a full day's wear, especially in hot weather, and especially because it's a bit sweet.

This was such a beautiful scent. One if the most beautiful powdery orientals. It was a very special perfume to me. I had the gift set perfume and dusting powder with a gorgeous dusting brush. It really looked lovely on a vanity with powder puffs and powder jar, the whole works. My Grandmother and I had the same taste in perfume so I bought her a bottle and she loved it. Ahhh, memories.

I always thought this perfume could have came out in the 20's era, it makes me think of Claudette Colbert in Cleopatra. Exotic. Powdery. Oriental. Spicy.
Makes me want to purchase it again.;)

I use to wear all the time when it first came out. And, had several bottles before changing up. Another I wish I would have stocked up on.

All the family kids used to cuddle to me and say, oooo you smell so good. And, that's about the only thing I can remember.

At that time it was considered very sultry, an oriental.

I have this perfume and it smells nice it is strong when you first spray it on and has a mossy, woody, floral, musk flower scent to it but the after smell is good like a rose, floral, power, woody scent. It is hard to find, and is expensive. It is a good scent, and after you spray it on you can smell it on you the very next day. Because they don't make it anymore I have a half full bottle that I don't use just for decoration :)

This was by far my favorite Revlon fragrance! It was just heavenly, one of the first oriental florals I just fell in love with & swore by. I would still love to have it again. I remember the ylang-ylang really came out on me & I loved it. I wore it for years. It was similar to a spicy Anais Anais, if you can imagine that. And it lasted longer on me than AA.

For boardbat, if I am remembering the pronunciation right, it was like "SEE-AHH SEE-ANGH", excusing my southern sccent!

I can remember finishing up a very small bottle and it wasn't enough. I've never seen it since. No wonder I liked it. It had oakmoss! It had depth.

As I familiarize myself with the fragrance notes, I've found those perfumes I've bought, liked, and used up had moss in the base notes. Curious...

This was such a strong, extotic perfume. I bought it in college after falling in love with the bottle and the name. I wore it and secretly loved it, although it wasn't totally me. It was strong and made a definitel statement. My boyfriend love it, though. Why did they stop making this?

my mom wore this and i used to sneak wearing it to school when i was like 10! I loved it too. I recently bought a little bottle on ebay for my mom to pay her back but it did not smell the same. Great scent, very mesmerizing to me.

Scnets N Things sells a knock off. It is very similar. The only thing missing is the purple color.

This is my hands down fav perfume! I got so many compliments from friends, lover, strangers. "You smell so good." "I like your perfume." "What are you wearing? I like the way you smell." Along with "I've never heard of it," when I'd tell them the name and of course spell it out. I bought my first bottle at ritzy Woodfield Mall in Schaumburg, IL outside Chicago. Everyone knew what to get me on gift giving occasions, it's all I wanted because I tore through this product like no tomorrow. Now I can't get it anymore and the sites that do carry it are carrying very old stagment bottles and they cost way too much. Please join with me and write Revlon.com and request that they bring the product back. The problem for lack of sales was a complete lack of advertising, no commercials, no ads in magazines and it seemed only the upscale malls carried it. The minor malls should've been allowed to carry it too.

I first bought Xia Xiang at the Kadena AB BX on Okinawa Japan in 1995 and loved it! I have a knock-off brand I use occasionally that doesn't smell quite the same. This scent reminds me of the years we spent living in the orient and will always be my main fave! Wonderful memories.

Oh, I do miss my Xia Xiang... it's been so long since I've smelled it that I can't even write a proper review, but from my memory I'll write down my impressions of it.

I loved the fresh citrusy top, and the way the florals entwined. I actually could not have told you what notes were in this fragrance; it just smelled heady and summery and floral, and the base was clean and woody. I don't remember ever noticing vanilla in it. Although it's an oriental, it's not heavy at all.

This will always be the fragrance of my Trip To Europe; I wore it every day.

This was my signature fragrance in high school, I actually got a boy's intense notice while using the lotion in class.. he asked to borrow a pencil and couldn't stop sniffing it!! LOL A great frag, and too bad they stopped making it!
