What wearers say
“Fresh, sweet pear and rose - I'm in love. I made the mistake of over-spraying when I first got this, not expecting it to be so strong. Good sillage and longevity - backup bottle worthy.Also definite Delina vibes in the drydown.”
“This is an absolutely beautiful fragrance. They say it’s a dupe for Givenchy’s Irresistible but I had that and actually returned it. Something in it made me feel sick, I prefer this version much better. It’s absolutely stunning and lasts a VERY long time. The notes are very accurate to what this smells like. Very feminine and captivating.”
“If you are interested in this perfume as a dupe of Irresistibile by Givenchy: the difference between them is the same as that between the first glass of a freshly opened champagne bottle and the last half glass after the bottle has been left open for a few hours ( CP). They are similar and both are delicious ,but one is sparkling ( Irresistibile) and the other ( CP is flat.”
