This is an old-fashioned take on the modern trend of ultra sweet floral-orientals. It has the vibe of scents like Flowerbomb and Euphoria with creamy florals amongst a good dose of amber and patchouli but what makes this work for me is the slightly vintagey feeling powdery notes and the sweet powdery dry honey which gives it a natural sweetness rather than candyfloss and fruit juice like alot of other modern scents. I feel this scent will become a classic for years to come. I have a small bottle of this and have just splashed out on the intense version which I prefer more (heavier honey and patchouli/rose) so this one get's 4/5 and the intense gets my 5 star rating as it is just divine.

Elie Saab Le Perfum Review
The Eau de parfum intense is sensual and addictive, a reminder of the embroidery on an evening dress caressing the skin.
An incarnation of ultimate femininity. Bathed in a more intense light, the Eau de parfum bottle takes on an amber hue, gold is subtly applied on the bottle in refined strokes.

Tips: If you find many popular fragrances too sweet give this one a try it has more depth and substance than most fruity floral orientals and natural sweetness.
This is a gorgeous fragrance, with beautiful honey floral tones, with an added twist of jasmine tea..it's sophisticated sensual and I think, would suit all ages. I have had many an appreciative comment whilst wearing this. I can't what to try the new one just released!
Tips: Only apply a small amount, as this is quite concentrated. It will last well throughout the day, and the fragrance will warm up beautifully.
This has become my signature scent, I love it. It has a feminine, sophisticated smell. It not too heavy and great for both day and night wear. I love the hint of jasmine and orange. You will love this perfume its not too girly, I think of it more as an elegant perfume.
I have given up the hunt on finding my signature fragrance! This is my absolute favourite perfume! It's got all my favourite scents of orange blossom, cedar and jasmine. It's a nice and sweet floral but a rich, sensual, feminine way as opposed to a young girly way.
Tips: If you love floral and oriental perfume combinations definitely give this a go!
This fragrance is softly sweet, sultry and intoxicating with its feminine notes. The jasmine note is prominent once it settles, which is probably why I love it so much. It reminds me of a hot summers night, when jasmines are in full bloom filling the air with their beautiful scent. In addition, the woody/cedar note gives it that exotic, middle eastern, spicy blend, which in my opinion is why this fragrance is so special. To top it off, the bottle is elegant and sophisticated. A beauty on any dresser. Definitely a favourite!
I always feel sophisticated when I wear this perfume. One of my favourites to wear in the summer time. The heart notes of Jasmine and Cedar are so delicate and sensual, and so very pleasing when they waft up your nose. I have been asked by my colleagues and clients what perfume I'm wearing which is pleasing in knowing that it's acceptable to those around me. The fragrant notes linger all day at work until I shower in the evening.. Ladies of all ages can wear this night or day especially if you have a love for soft floral fragrances, then this one should be added to your collection if ever you need a change.
Tips: Get the body cream and do what the French call, "Layering", which is when you use the the body cream first, then spray the EDT perfume delicately over the top. The notes longer twice as long.
From the first moment I smelled this perfume I was in love. As the price is quite exxy I had to wait to receive it was a present and now get it as anniversary gifts from my partner so I don't have to justify spending that much on one bottle! When you first spray it, it is very sharp but after two or three minutes when it settles it is beautiful, I love the way it smells on my skin so feminine and pretty and it seems to develop over the day bringing out the jasmine notes.
Tips: Definitely try on your skin and wear for a few hours before deciding whether you like it or not. A friend of mine tried it at the same time I did and it smelled completely different on her and not in a good way !
Ever since I was a teen, I have always worn light, floral and aromatic scents such as Jean Paul Gaultier or Issey Miyake and loved them, however since i'm now in my early 30's, I've felt the need for a more mature scent. When friend's of mine bought my 'Ellie Saab' I was hesitant, as it's always difficult to chose a scent for someone else, however, I tried the scent and now i'm in love. It has all the notes of light florals that i previously enjoyed but much more depth and more musk. My fiance, who is a chef and is pretty fussy when it comes to deodorants and perfumes, adores Ellie Saab. I would definitely buy it again, however my only complaint is that it doesn't seem to last that long on the skin, thus I seem to using the product a lot faster than previous scents.
Tips: If you are considering purchasing Ellie Saab, make sure you buy the Parfum rather than the Eau de toilette as It doesn't hold on the skin for very long
I adore this feminine and grown up fragrance! It has great staying power without being overwhelming and it wears beautifully on my skin. I love the floral top notes and musk/woody base notes making this a great evening or winter scent.
Yes it is slightly addictive, a lovely fragrance quite deep amber tones, and a hint of spice and vanilla, I had the set wash and cream and perfume a 50 mill bottle in EDP and stayed on longer when layered no doubting it's a glorious sent, a sent that's not to strong and can easily be worn during the day and into evening, the cream was soft and silky, the body wash didn't lather much but smelled lovely, the bottle a nice shape with a lovely lid I brought the set going through duty free
Tips: Keep perfume in the dark
