Wearable for casual but nothing special

I wanted so badly to love this. I love the notes and I love it just sprayed out of the bottle. Unfortunately I do not care for the way it smells when it sits on my skin, definitely smells like an old lady perfume.

It smells horrible..it's smells like something my granny would like

Not for me

I didn't like the smell

Unfortunately this one did not live up to my moderate hopes. I saw the bad reviews, but I've been doing well on my picks lately, liked the notes (champagne, peach...) and decided it was worth the risk. Sadly, it's not. It starts with slightly sour-peach champagne with that flash of white pepper the description mentions (interesting so far and possibly wearable when I want something different?) but then turns to cloying powdery floral mixed w/ REALLY sour old champagne. Nope, I just can't do it. Debated giving it one star, but settled for two. Not really sure why?

This one is interesting. Not sure if I liked it at first, but my choices have changed recently. I find this different, and familiar. I can understand the reviews that equate to old lady perfume. It is sweet, but not fruit and candy sweet, more like unusual spices and herbs to me at least.

I LOVE Etat Libre d'Orange and own quite a few of their interesting scents. Vraie Blonde opens up with a very pleasant, peachy aldehyde, and is very enjoyable for about an hour on my skin. Then....poof! It's gone completely, and I can only smell it if I put my nose right on my skin. Summary: I really like it and it will be great in the spring and summer, but will need to carry it around to reapply as needed. Recommended if you like lightweight fruity scents.....

Smells like a cleanser. Not at all for me

It smells good on my daughter, but terrible on me.

This fragrance is certainly one of the more interesting ones I’ve tried. From the moment I first opened the bag I could smell it very strongly. It was a very aldehydic scent which almost kind of burned my nostrils at first.But then I sprayed it on and wow! It wasn’t like anything I’d ever smelled before. I decided to wear it to a dinner date I had that night and while it didn't last very long, the dry-down was very lovely while it lasted. Definitely more of a summer scent. This isn’t a mass-pleaser so if that’s what you’re looking for I suggest you go elsewhere. But if you're looking for something dating and bold, you may enjoy this one! 3 stars only because it didn't last very long and I find the initial aldehydic smell to be quite overwhelming but I respect what this fragrance is trying to do.

Just not me at all!

too old timey, reminded me of my Grandmother.

Honestly I did not like at all smells very powdery like (like something an older women would wear) I gave it to my aunt

smells like burl ives house... not good. strong. hint of orange masked in old person. maybe even a corpse.

It has such an intense smell at first that fades into a clean fresh feel. I'd read the reviews and was skeptical but am so glad I tried it, it's one of my favorites.

Good scent for summer. Fruit scents. Clean smell. Not too heavy for warm weather

Citrusy, fresh, and just a hint of floral spice. Awesome scent for hot weather. Not as long lasting as I'd like so I took off one star, but the smell is wonderful.

This perfume is so sophisticated and gives you notes of classic perfumes of the 50’s. So glad I ignored the reviews this is wonderful

I was not a fan of this scent. It doesn't hold all day, but could be how my skin mixes with it.

I absolutely hated it. It smells like an elderly woman choice. Not a great smell at all

This scent has a sickening sweet smell. I disliked it the moment I put it on. I was hoping the smell would get better as the day went on... it didn’t.

[UPDATE] I regret my review below. It's not that bad. There's a time and place for everything. And a mood. As I smell more different fragrances, I think I understand this one a bit more. [PREVIOUS REVIEW] I’m so sad. I didn't want to believe this one was bad, but I should have believed the comments on this one. To me, this smells like myrrh in a church and orange flavored alcoholic beverages ... the day after partying in Las Vegas and you've got that dizzy feeling and you need to some how get to the bathroom quick and get home.

Totally not my cup of tea smelt like old lady :( and also very strong literally 1 sprays was good for them whole day n evening.

I don't know why people didn't like it, not even that weird.

This arrived yesterday and went in the trash last night....just horrible!

It’s in the title. I’ve never smelled old cotton candy, but this would be it

Smells like every other perfume

I didn’t update my queue and normally I hate what they send but I actually went out and bought a bottle of this! Super feminine and light. For sure an everyday scent!

Old lady smell all the way!

I read a lot of the reviews after I was sent this perfume. I really like the smell...it's fresh, feminine and light. I typically go for the clean smells, so I was a little surprised I like this one so much with the floral and champagne. Now, if we could get a big one on this site, that would be great. ;-)

Unfortunately, for the first time ever, I didn’t update my queue and Scentbird chose this scent for me. I feel sick I wasted my money this month. This frangrance burned my nose and eyes. It was so overwhelming and unpleasant. Another fragrance that I’m not sure would work with anyone’s body chemistry. I can’t get it out of my nostrils. My disappointment is so great...with SB and myself. I would give this scent zero stars if I could, please don’t buy and please stay on top of your queue!

I am not a fan of this scent hurts my nose

Too strong for perfume, more like house cleaner. In my opinion. There is no way I could wear this. Not a fan at all.

This smells of nothing I could imagine anyone finding desirable

Terrible smell

These come off smelling too cologne-y or old lady-ish.

Smells like a sweet old lady

Not a fan. Smells old and musky.

I kept trying to figure out what stank. This did.

Sorry to say, I did not like this fragrance.

smells like an old lady

Threw it out. Smells terrible

Smells like old lady. Seriously bad.

not my scent profile at all :(

I have been getting this old, smelly perfumes lately as well. This perfume just smells bad.

I’m sorry but lately I’ve been getting these perfume that smells old, tacky, and dingy. I definitely wouldn’t recommend it to anyone not even my own grandmother.

This perfume was very dark and musky. Seems appropriate for a customer who doesn't lean towards the sweet and juicy fragrances.

It starts off smelling like citrus, then has a very spicy scent, and then just finishes with an off-smell that's hard to describe. This went right in the trash. NOT pleased that they sent this to me without me choosing it.

This was actually awful

Very strong smell and not complimentary at all. Smelled like an old cat lady and has none of the notes that I like. This was a horrible choice by scent bird and a waste of my money

This perfume smelled okay at first since it smelled like oranges, but there was a very strong scent toward the end that was almost sour. Not a big fan.

Really bad.

Smells pretty bad

One spray and I immediately threw it in the trash. What a waste

Was expecting something completely different based on the notes listed. Don’t think notes mix well together.

Can't even give it away! It is a horrible scent. This scent should be removed from options. It was nothing lile the description. Too bad I had to even give it 1 star. It didn't deserve it.

Horrible. Did not like at all.

Not my cup of tea! Smells like a bathroom cleaner or a bathroom air freshener to me!

It smells like they're going for vintage perfumes in this one. This brand has scents that aren't ordinary. It's hit or miss with ELDO. This one smells like you're visiting your grandmother who has elegant antique perfume bottles from the 50s on her vanity and they still have the same perfume in them from back then. It's overpowering and sickly. Maybe someone with a desire for that specific nostalgia will find this amazing. But if you like to smell fresh, spicy, or citrusy in general, do not waste your monthly pick on this. It is the opposite of a clean scent. Curiosity killed the cat when I picked this one.

This reminds of an 70s-80s powerhouse fragrance á la Opium. There's nothing subtle going on here, and the nostalia factor is probably why I like it. It's strong but I wouldn't say it's aggressive or heavy. It does make its presence known, but it fades pretty quickly. After awhile, the brashness fades and there's a bright floral woodiness to it that reminds me the original Fendi, but not nearly as strong. It reminds me of when my mother would go out on Saturday nights in the 80s, dressed to the nines and wearing a cloud of Estee Lauder Knowing.

It was a bit stronger than I expected. Also more floral than i wanted. Im trying to find scents that are not floral and having a hard time

So, I sprayed this all over my sister as a joke, my brother in law came in disgusted and said she smelled like white diamonds and ol’ Lady ass. This perfume definitely captures the 1950’s notes... lol

Not at all what I was expecting. Nothing about this perfume smells good. It's almost offencive.

I don't smell any of the mentioned notes. It just smells like chocolate both in the bottle and on the skin. Very strong at first but it does fade into a more pleasant but still very chocolatey scent.

BARF. This scent is Horrible. NONE of the notes come through, the only thing that does is stinky old lady. It smells so bad... bad enough that another scent couldn't mask it D: this is my only bad scent I've gotten and I'm just upset I p-id for it.

Was really looking forward to this fragrance but it didn't live up to my expectations. I'm not sure what the overwhelming scent is but I'm not a fan

I really wanted to love this fragrance! As a huge Marilyn Monroe fan I was intrigued by the description and had high hopes, unfortunately this perfume fell short. Champagne & Patchouli with the dry down being faintly flowery, I really wish the peach note would have popped, it would have made all the difference in my opinion.

I wanted to love this based on the description but it’s not for me. It’s definitely a more mature scent and not in a good way. I tried it a few times but the scent is not pleasing, almost has a bug repellent smell. I will give this away.

I love peach and the only reason I added it to my list was because of that BUT it was such a disappointment!!! It smells like an old lady perfume (no offense) but I will never spray it again. YUCK!!

I didn’t like this sent at all. It doesn’t evoke images of Marilyn Monroe. I can’t smell any champagne or fizzy note at all. It smells like old perfume that has turned. The only thing I smell on the dry down is soap. This is a no for me.

Has that strong cologne scent, and smells powdery afterwards. Not as sweet as I’d hoped

The sent is very strong at first but sweet once it settles in. I love that it is fresh.
