5th Avenue (1996)
by Elizabeth Arden

This is something floral and mainstream to wear for work, say. It's not a fragrance that makes one ooooh and aaah about its artistry, but it's very wearable and men seem to compliment you too, which isn't a bad thing I suppose!

It is a nice floral with an modest amount of lily. Nice and tender. I am happy to meet it today as i have been planning to add a lily fragrance to my wardrobe and could not decicide between diorissimo and pleasures incense. 5. avenue will be a better choice as i don't enjoy strong lily much.

I am plannign to buy one, actually

This one is funny as I don't really like it that much but I get a lot of compliments on it when I wear it. It is a bit sporty, which is probably why I don't like it too much as I prefer orientals and florals. It is quite strong and does have good lasting power though.

This is my everyday favourite. After the first sniff I felt quite neutral about it, but after using it for a few days I fell in love with it. It is flowery, feminine, fresh and elegant. Not too sweet, not too much of anything. I'm 25, but in my opinion this scent suits women all ages.

This fragrance was the first one I bought for my wife, by the time she was only my girlfriend and both were students. With few money I found a bottle of it for about US$35 and let she test it. The fragrance is very pleasant, giving both an image of clean classic sophistication and innocence. The main notes are mandarine, peach and roses, supported by jazmine and magnolia, and a base of cedar, musk and amber. As time passed, she used this fragrance as reference for future ones, taking orange-like top notes, jazmine middle notes and cedar, musk and amber base notes as her signature.

At least in Chile this fragrance is common, but not known by its name, just by its aroma (as I remember, it was used by my best friend, my secretary, a couple of colleagues and my brother's girlfriend... in all them it felt well). One of my top-tens, fits almost all women. Recommendable for all seasons, romantic, classic office and night use, and for a range of 15-60 years old.
