Elizabeth Arden Red Door Review

I got a 30ml giftset of this perfume from the beauty vault quite a while ago. I'm a bit of a perfume hoarder so I had put it away and kind of forgotten about it. I recently pulled it out of my collection and I've been wearing it almost everyday.

The packaging of this is very classic. I feel like pretty much everybody would recognise this as being a red door perfume. IT is literally a red door shape. I like it, it's different to my other perfume bottles, so I can easily spot it.

This is a sophisticated scent and seems more to me for older or just mature woman. I couldn't imagine a young girl would be attracted to this scent. It's quite warm and sultry smelling. I get some powder notes and a slight floral sweetness. The version I have is only an edt but I do find this lasts a good few hours that I can smell. I imagine the edp lasts even longer so you do get good wear time for your money.

I do like this and I'd possibly buy a bottle in the future. It's not a must have for me but I do think it's nice to have and to use to feel a bit more classy sometimes.

I was gifted this and I was first captivated by the packaging. It's a beautiful red door - classic Elizabeth Arden. The lid comes off easily and it sprays and distributes extremely well.

The scent itself is very musky - it's quite similar to YSL Black opium, but more musky and a little vanillary. It's much warmer and sultry, and definitely feels more mature and sophisticated. It's also less sweet than the YSL, but similar enough so if you like Black Opium, I would recommend you try a sniff.

I feel that the scent lasts for a long time and it is indeed an elegant fragrance, but not for all. It would be a great gift for mums, aunties and older women.

I received this is a gift, I didn't like how it smelt on so I passed it on to my mother, the fragrance lingeres for a decent amount of time in the room once you put it on and even by the end of the day can still smell it so lasts well.

It does kind of remind me of my mum and grandma kind of fragrance do made me feel a lot older. Musky floral scents to it maybe another 20 years and I'll change my opinion on it. Can definitely pick out when someone else is whearing it. Good value for money

This perfume is a classic! A delightful warm musky smell with floral notes . The scent lasts for ages and this is one that I always have in my collection. More suited for the mature woman.

This is a good product and is of high quality but I'm not too fussed on the smell or the price. It reminds me of my mum as it or the Elizabeth Arden Green Tea were her go to perfumes for years. I wouldn't buy this myself as not too keen on smelling like my mum all the time. But a sneaky spirtz when I'm over at her house and the need arises doesn't go a miss. The scent is long lasting as any good perfume should be.

I seem to be quite sensitive to the strength of perfumes that I can actually wear but Red Door is probably the most preferred fragrances that seems to attract a lot of nice comments from passers by - always making me feel good.

This has to be one of the finest perfumes that still has the flirty, vibrant, WOW factor. I absolutely put this feminine fragrance in my top 5. Day or night,this beautiful tantalizing fragrance is great for both and subtle enough to wear for all occasions,I still get asked which perfume I have on when wearing it.!! My skin definitely doesn't react from this gorgeous fragrance and a little bit definitely goes a long way! Love love love love

When I out this on I literally transformed into an old lady. This scent is the definition of an older woman still trying to maintain youthfulness with the smells of 1960. I was given this scent by an Aunty...I give it points for being long wearing and clinging to literally everything. The packaging is nice and deceptive, just don’t spray it LOL! It is one of those perfumes that you can’t spray everywhere otherwise you will receive complaints about how your overpowering smell is clogging the airways. I love Eliza A. perfumes, but this one just gives me hay fever.

This is probably my all-time preferred perfume. Whenever I wear it, I always feel sophisticated and that I smell nice. I often get compliments about the way I smell when I wear this timeless classic. I don’t think it’s overpowering, it’s a classy smell that works day or night.. People often know the smell and can place it it almost straight away, that’s how well known and popular it is.

One of my go to perfumes, never seem to grow bored of the smell, fragrance lasts all day. Although some people in my family don’t seem to like the scent and the strength, but am forever getting compliments from people saying they love Red Door. The bottle is absolutely gorgeous and looks super expensive but definitely think it’s well worth the price as a bottle has lasted a very long time as you don’t need much! This perfume has also gotten me into Red Door Aura which is another great smelling one!
