5/5 LongevityUnique“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.”
4/5 SweetnessFresh & clean“**- Narciso Rodriguez for HER (edt)**”
3/5“Narciso Rodriguez For Her Musc Noir. My mum gave it to me, she didn't like it for herself. It was before I was really into perfumes so I was just happy to get a free bottle. It didn't feel like me though so I almost got rid of it but decided I'd give it another chance later. Well I'm glad I did because I adore it now. It's one of my bedtime scents and it makes me feel so good. I have a lot of samples now and I never get rid of them even if I don't like a scent. I like to try them again months later and I've had a few pleasant surprises that way!”
5/5 SweetnessOffice“Oh what about Narciso Rodriguez For Her? It's a woody musk - very slight floral - perfect for an office job. But feminine. I agree with the JHAG - I also like Signature by Mont Blanc - it's a sweet musk (not a strong vanilla at least on me) and has a nice scent trail that's not overwhelming”
4/5“Narciso Rodriguez For Her Musc Oil Parfum, circa 2007. It was a limited edition. Smelled so freaking good, like compliments-during-makeout-sessions good. 😊 I've tried other For Her versions but they're not the same. I had to throw out my bottle because the oil went bad after many years.”

4/5“Here are what I will speak for only because I own them currently: Kat Von D Sinner, Ghost Deep Night, Narciso Rodriguez for her EDT (black bottle), Tom Ford Black Orchid and Velvet Orchid, Estee Lauder Sensuous, and SJP Stash. The last two are especially woodsy, sexy, and even layerable.”
5/5 Sweetness“I suggest Chloé L'Eau de parfum Intense or Narciso for her the edp. I own and love both of these and they are musky roses. Chloé has added raspberry and it's fresher but still sweet.”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“By my mid thirties through now I started at Radio Bombay, Bo by Liis, back to Narciso For Her EDT, onto Gothic I by Loree Rodkin, Vanagloria by Laboratori, and now I'm digging back into florals but turned on their heads without heavy indoles, and finally giving iris and orris root a fair shot. Would I wear Moschino now?”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“Trying my decant of Narciso Rodriguez For Her EDP for a Saturday where I'll mostly be home or running errands”
Not rated (no clear sentiment) Fall“I somehow lean to Narciso Rodriguez for Her EDT more during colder seasons. I live in a climate zone where we have true autumn with all those orange leaves, fog and rainy days, and true winters with snow till knees and freezing noses :D I found that EDT complements wool and cashmere materials really well so I use it more during colder seasons.”
Not rated (no clear sentiment) Date night“That Amal Clooney-esque description is literally **Diptyque Orpheon.** The capable cool girl. I use the EDP. A more sensual version is **Narciso Rodriguez For Her.** I use the EDP (pink bottle) so I can't speak for the EDT (black bottle). It's all of that all the way to date night.”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“First thing in the morning (6am), a spritz of **A Drop d'Issey** on my chest. I have to leave for errands, so I sprayed **Narciso Rodriguez For Her EDP**. That one always makes me feel like a girly girl. 😁”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“Using up my tester of Narciso Rodriguez For Her EDT today 💕”
Not rated (no clear sentiment) Office“Personally, I adore being complimented on my scent as long as someone is polite about it, meaning not menacing. At least weekly, someone asks me what I'm wearing (usually men because I am the only female at work). My collection is older now as I'm trying to save money, and the ones with the most comments are CK Obsession, Narciso Rodriguez for her (EDT, black bottle), Tom Ford Velvet Orchid, and Kat Von D Sinner. In the past, the two I got the most on were Fendi Theorema and Givenchy Organza Indecence.”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“Narciso for her EDT. Many years ago I purchased the pink bottle (EDP) and it was just too much for me.”
Not rated (no clear sentiment)“I wore Narciso Rodriguez For Her Musc Noir Rose. Coming up on my anniversary and can't wait to wear it!”
