My signature perfume! Smells divine on my skin. Definitely a “your skin but better” scent. Musky and sweet is my fav combo!

Clean and simple, with a hint of an almost chemical backnote, there isn't a whole lot to say about this perfume. Smells as if you just got out of the shower and the scent really lasts (I am typing this review 11 hours after a light spritz of the sample and can still smell it quite clearly) I think it is a nice, light, clean, scent, but nothing that really gives a "wow" factor.

This is unique to you -so sample!! My sister loves it on me but absolutely hates it on herself (I would agree). Possibly one of my most complimented perfumes and my collection truly runs the gambit. On me this is breezy, crisply effervescent and clean. Nothing masculine about it. It is also a scent that you will become "nose blind" to on and off throughout the day - but it is always present to those around you. Literally have people ask me to come stand near them.

So, I once tried a small sample of this from Sephora and it was so clean. Almost like wet latex shower curtains, but in a sexy way. Then I got the sample atomizer here and I'm getting something different. More basic masculine cologne. It's not bad and it definitely pairs well with others that you want to have more of a rounded bright masculine vibe, but it's just not what it once was for me.

Great scent for everyday - versatile and clean.

Don't really like putting on perfume that literary doesn't smell like anything. Good if you just want to smell like you just got out of the shower. It simply has a boring clean smell that I'm not really into.

Smells good although once dried the scent resembles Dolce & Gabanna´s Light Blue. I wouldn´t bother in buying a bottle to be honest.

It's a very light, slightly sweet woody scent that stays close to the skin. It would make a great scent to wear in an office setting or anywhere you don't want to smell too strong. It's as if I used a woody-scented soap in the shower. I have to sniff my skin to really smell it. I don't care for the smell, but I can see how others might like it.

I love this fragrance. It surprises me that I am so taken with this scent as I usually prefer oriental fragrances or dramatic florals. But there are so many reasons to love this. It is fresh, clean and very understated and elegant. It lasts forever.People ask what is that perfume ? I love it" Because it is a composition of but one note the dry down does not surprise or disappoint. The bottle and packaging are lovely as well. This is a fragrance to wear when you want to be the Grace Kelly to everyone else's Lady Gaga.

I Love this fragrance! It is my summer go to. It's light and lasts all day long. I can't smell it on myself, but I get compliments on the fragrance all the time, all day long. I can start my day at 8am and by 10pm, people still say "you smell really good!" Now, that's a great fragrance. The one note, is just that...a beautiful one note!

Loved Not A Perfume from the Discovery Kit, so I ordered the large bottle. Sadly, the fragrance in the big bottle smelled like nothing. Maybe a little laundry detergent mixed with alcohol? I DRENCHED myself in it- at least ten sprays- and no one, including me, could smell anything. I don't understand, was this a bad batch? How could the sample size smell so wonderful, but the big bottle smell like nothing? So disappointed!

I had the original so I ordered the sample of Not A Perfume. It was horrible. The original lasts all day. The sample is like alcohol. It sprays on with a alcohol scent and the scent is gone in 5 minutes. I'm happy I didn't spend $100. Very disappointed.

I love this perfume! It's true that it's composition and wearability are hard to pinpoint. Some days I can smell it on myself, other days, I can barely smell it at all. I just love it, though. I tried Molecule 02, and though I liked the very faint smell I was able to detect on certain days, it didn't seem to last on me. It seems like which of the two stays on you depends on your chemistry.

I ADORE - Not a Perfume! This is my fourth bottle -- its my signature scent. I get LOADS of compliments when I wear this. Its so long wearing and elegant. I don't notice it when I wear it but everyone else does which is the way to know when a scent is perfect for you. LOVE LOVE LOVE

The best fragrance
By  on 10/28/2014
amazing, mysterious and sophisticated. i get so many compliments every single time I wear this. Its my signature scent and have gone through 3 bottles. epic. when I get this through lucky scent its brand new -- so i put it in my window for just a week to strengthen it - lasts ALL DAY. I adore it.

Not a perfume, not much of anything at all. I expected to love it; I've been wearing Molecule 02 for years. I assumed it would be practically identical as the are both single-note ambroxan. This was nice at first, kind of similar to Molecule but not as much as you'd expect. But it was gone in a few minutes. Gone gone. Molecule stays around forever on me, especially if I spray it on my clothing. Anything that you don't wash each time you wear it like a coat or a sweater will still smell like it. Not with this; I tried. Disappointing.

This is a beautiful, light slightly sweet blend that smells innocent and all grown up at the same time. Clean, soft and womanly. However, it does fade into nothingness in under an hour. So sad, I hated to have it go.
By   - fitness geek from laguna hills, ca on 10/2/2012
Well... after an hour of wearing this, it pretty much smells like Victoria's Secret Heavenly. Which no doubt has a lot of ambroxan in it. So you could some money, buy a light department store "musk" perfume, and admit to yourself that while adorably and classily packaged, this is basically a gimmick.
By   - from Los Angeles on 7/12/2012
I really, really like this scent. It reminds me of a subtler, more refined Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue with a slightly sweet floral note. The scent is lovely, understated, and natural. Some might say "generic," but I prefer to think of it as "all-purpose." HOWEVER, the reviews that criticize its lack of staying power are right on the money. It fades in less than an hour. For this reason, I could never justify paying for a full-sized bottle. In three words: Simple, lovely... fleeting.
