Like so many from Jaguar this is best for younger people looking to dip their toe into the hobby without breaking the bank. Perfumes with natural ingredients often smell different in batches based on the source of the ingredients, while synthetic ingredients usually have consistency in their smell and lasts longer. It smells like a really smooth, slightly intoxicating blend of sweet vanilla, florals and spices with Curacao note remaining, yet settling down into a boozy orange syrup kind of notes rather than the powerful alcoholic notes like before. It fails to top much cheaper products, like Pinaud's Clubman afershave lotion, which is more dynamic with rose and oakmoss.

I think maybe a mist application and walking through versus directly spraying on gives it more personality. In my experience, I am almost always hit with an overwhelming, caramel-like sweetness, which lasts for a few minutes before it evolves into a warm vanilla scent. I think a lot has to do with hormones as I cannot stand this scent during PMS when my sense of smell seems acute.

When I removed the lid from the sample vial, I instantly recognized the fragrance and the similarity to the original, but I absolutely loved it! When I first purchased this I was expecting something old school masculine and heavily spicy because that's how a lot of reviews described it, I found that is not the case. If you get a newer bottle of this without the fishnet print, and you find it disappointing in smell: Just let it age for about a year. It makes me think of laying in the sand at night after swimming in the salty sea, sipping a cocktail with sugar on the rim, and toasting marshmallows.

The main attraction in this fragrance is the curacao which is a tropical booze from the Caribbean island of Curacao in the Dutch Antilles. This doesn't strike me as strictly a summer or colder months perfume, as I've worn this in both tropical places and cold European winter and I feel like it suits both.

I smell the Curacao and starfruit immediately; the vanilla comes through and I get a little bit of wood just before it disappears. Its really a shame because it would be a good cologne if it weren't for the synthetic flower/potpourri smell. Oh, it's like a cool (not hot) summer night just after sun down by the sea/marina (insert location: Honolulu Hawaii, Jamaica, The Bahamas, Florida) at a restaurant. My daughter, who is annoyed by my perfumes since she's my guinea pig for each, actually told me I smelled great when I sat next to her. As it dries down the sweetness stays as does the warmth but the spice becomes more of a vanilla and the powdery note shifts towards a soapy variation.

I'm a fan of literally everything but this fragrance had me gagging hanging on for dear life as I jumped in the shower to scrub off this animal! I am so in love with it and also with its staying power ,which is enormous with enormous sillage,nothing compared to the latest Gueass perfumes ,which are so watery and so non interesting.Please read the full reviews and consider your own needs and preferences before making a purchasing decision.

The GUESS design story started in 1981 when French brothers Maurice and Paul Marciano moved from the South of France to Los Angeles. It's well made by comparison to more recent caramel gouramonds that are equally yummy but sadly gone in sixty seconds (cough, cough, *Prada Candy* cough).This smells EXACTLY like Jaguar Classic Amber with a dose of spices added, but they're so close you'd not need to own both no matter how cheap they are.
