I got a sample of this perfume to try. The scent lasts a long time without fading much. It goes on strong and stays that way mostly. I couldn't stop sneezing! (I have allergies and asthma so it is probably just me.) For some reason this perfume smells like flower soap on me - yuk! (I have this problem sometimes so you should try the perfume if it sounds like one you will like.) This perfume will probably stay on you all day so make sure you like it!
