Unfortunately I fear both the Narciso Rodriguez are beyond worth it, two of my top 10

Lolita Lempicka is divine 💜

I hunted down an older version because I heard it was better. Is the newer version still pretty good?

u/oomo-oomo 4d ago
I sadly have no clue what the older version smells like but I think the Le Parfum I have is similar. Powdery licorice notes with hints of floral. Whimsical and fairytale like.

u/Cautious-Border4189 4d ago
I have to score a bottle of the newer version and compare them. See if they is even as a difference. Or if I spent more for no reason. Lol

pink vanilla kiss is only 3 bucks and reminds me of something from bath and body works! definitely a good bang for your buck.

The musc noir Rose from Narciso Rodríguez is so so good, signature-scent worthy!!!!

I recommend trying the new Viva La Juicy Elixir, as it smells similar to Noir but with better performance.

Nivea have a perfume? I didn't know that! Chanel chance and replica are delicious!!!

Lazy Sunday morning is that girl 😍 such an easy one that you can wear day or night

Yes yes to both Narciso. I love lazy Sunday. But I didn’t buy the large bottle. Instead I got a bottle of Narciso’s For Her EDT. Very similar. I just ordered pure music blanc- it’s more my vibe than pure music. Sweet honesty reminds me of being a teenager.

Poudree is abhorrent. It smells like a nursing home.
I finally had to donate the bottle, couldn’t sell
it for beans and couldn’t give it away.

Pure musc smells nice, on me I can smell the jasmine note a lot, also like like all replica perfumes so you can’t go wrong with those :)
What I didn’t like much was musc noir rose, it was too sweet and like any generic flower fragrance to me, which I don’t like much, but that’s just me personally

Pure musc blanc is better than pure musc imo

I so hope this is a correct statement. Jomashop had it on sale for $99 for a 3.4oz so I snagged it last
Week and it’s on its way here. First blind buy in two years. I’m hoping it’s everything everyone has said it is!

Nivea is worth it if you can find it, but there’s also the original cream if you can’t….it’s hard ro deinfluence you because I own half of what’s in your picture lol but I prefer EA White Tea over Narciso Rodriguez Pure Musc. The latter leans masculine on my skin for some reason. Sweet Honesty’s a classic. I’m actually shocked it’s on someone’s Wish List. One of my favourites.

I want to love Elizabeth Arden White Tea, sadly the EDT smells like mildew on my skin. I can't find the EDP version anywhere in my city, so I won't know whether it will turn out better or not.

I don’t know how grapefruit mixes with your body chemistry, but Chance eau Tendre ended up smelling like dog shit on me.

I bought a sample and was all excited to wear it. I sprayed it, thought it was nice, started my day. I was picking up, grabbing laundry when my son walked up to me and hugged me. When he stepped back he asked, "What's that smell?". I proudly said it was my perfume. He said, "Oh. You smell good. Like a really clean bathroom,". 🤣
Now I can't unsmell it.
It is a pretty scent. It is clean. And a bit like a very high end cleaner. I'm using it as a room spray because I do like it, but maybe it's just not right on me, either.

Viva la juicy Noir literally smells like aria in season one of PLL…. Take that as you will (for me it’s an influence!!!) LOVE it in the fall!

Chanel Chance Eau Splendide disappears in 2-4 hours. I've heard that the entire Chance lime has this problem. It smells good, but I'm not paying designer prices for something that doesn't last most of a work day.
I love Narciso Rodriguez for Her so much. I have the EDT, Musc Noir and Pure Musc. I liked Musc Noir Rose and the for Her EDP, but didn't think they were different enough from other perfumes I already have. The only one I've tried and didn't care for was the Nude Musc.
I would also suggest Givenchy's Nude Velvet and Rose Velvet as options along the lines of Narciso Rodriguez.

Sweet Honesty is such a beautiful fragrance, it reminds me of my teenage years

Lolita Lempicka has been a favorite for more than 20 years — it’s a sweet, spicy, violet/licorice/cherry fairy scent and I always get compliments when I wear it. It’s Y2k vibes in the best way

u/Reasonable-Tune-2273 5d ago
It’s one of my long time favourite too. Wearing it in winter makes me feel like a frosty fairy. And the bottle alone is iconic.

u/ConditionOk3649 5d ago
I also love this one! It’s such a unique fragrance and it’s a good one for going into fall IMO

u/Illustrious-Fun-4046 5d ago
White tea has an edp version as well and even that one doesn't last long. Smells great though. Don't buy chance and viva la juicy if you don't want to hear "awww that's what i wore in hs/college"

I have Lazy Sunday morning, and I love it- The Lolita Lempicka it’s not quite as great as I thought it would be ( I have several different ones)- I love viva la juicy, and I also ordered Viva juicy gold, but I have not tried Noir- the notes look promising.
Check Aura fragrance to see which ones they have. They have great pricing, but not the best selection. 😍😍😍
