White Diamonds en Rouge
I am a big fan of most of Elizabeth Taylor's fragrances. I very recently discovered this fragrance for the first time here, and decided to buy it blind. I figure for me, an Elizabeth Taylor fragrance is pretty much a guaranteed success. Immediately after spraying, the raspberry and pink pepper are there, but they last only the briefest of moments. Right away I detect the rose, orange blossom, and a pinch of the patchouli. The dry down is gorgeous, as I mostly notice the patchouli, vanilla and amber. Overall I would describe this as a floriental rather than a floral. There is a very noticeable "spice" quality to the scent, which I love, but anyone who doesn't like spicy scents should probably avoid this one. This fragrance has amazing sillage and lasts what seems like forever. After wearing it the first time to try it out, the next day I could still smell it all day long without reapplying. Wow! That's a first for me. I feel like this one could definitely be worn very dressed up but also would work more casual outfits and occasions. To me, I don't think this one would be office safe, if you work near your coworkers. I could be wrong here, but with it's amazing sillage, I would be nervous to wear it to work myself. All in all, I'm so happy with my "blind buy" and I would definitely recommend to all lovers of florientals or those who appreciate "spicy" perfumes. It's a 10/10 for me.
