My hidden gem at the moment is Calvin Klein "Women". It is soft, fresh and clean but slightly fruity and sweet with a hint of musk in the drydown, it s really classy. It has some "D&G Light blue" vibes but it is better, in my opinion, pefect for late spring and summer. I adore it, I have both the EDP and the EDP Intense (which I recommend), the lasting power is not huge but it is decent, especially for the price. Nobody EVER talks about it, and it's a pity because it's really delicious.

Thanks for this list! I’m a Texan girl and grew up with the 70’s and 80’s big fragrances that I still love. So I appreciate Armaf for their inspired scents that last and project more than the original scents they are emulating. I want to smell my fragrance so these are amazing: Legesi for Her (DG Light Blue), LaRosa (LeVEBelle), Katarina Light Blue (YSL Manifesto), Futura La Femme ( Delina), Eternia Woman (Poison Girl), Vanity Femme Essence (Chloe). These are beautiful, quality fragrances with incredible lasting power and unbeatable prices. Roberto Cavalli -his original signature is a love as well- great for projection and lasting ❤️❤️❤️from Dallas!

My fave hidden gem is Donna Karan's Cashmere Mist EDP. There's also a EDT that's also nice, but I prefer the EDP. It's a powdery cozy scent, best for fall/winter. So far I've smelled nothing like it. For years it was not advertised and I was worried it was going to be discontinued, but recently they've ramped up the advertising a bit, so I now think they'll be keeping it around.

I ALMOST purchased Escada candy love yesterday but refrained because no tester was out to smell it. I will not blind buy something that has floral in it (unless they have a travel size to take home to test), as if something has a strong floral note in it it gives me headaches 😵💫

Beautiful selection ! I totally agree on the ones I know. Elie Saab's "le parfum lumière": gorgeous classy orange blossom based designer scent (orange blossom is my favourite note), Yves Saint Laurent's "Mon Paris": I own the "intensement", the only intense rose I can wear so far : it charmed me with its cheeky sweet fruity spirit, projects and lasts very well. Narciso Rodriguez "for her": still the best of the range. I need to put my nose on this "Matière Première" new release, as I love both tuberose and the brand ... My hidden gem is Cabotine by Grès edp, quite forgotten very peculiar green honeyed beauty, not for everyone as some might find it too vintage or too green, but amazing quality for a ridiculous price. An orange blossom based scent I own is Goutal's not-reviewed-at -all "le temps des rêves": half edible (becomes more gourmand layered with vanilla) half clean baby, with a better lasting power than it seems : delicious ! Goutal in general is not talked about enough to my opinion (too bad they don't sell samples online !): very natural smelling subtle poetic compositions, EXCELLENT value for money.
