Elizabeth Arden Red Door Review

I think this one is definitely fine for its price. It isn’t a magical product that is cheap but smells expensive. It smells good, but just a pretty base level good, doesn’t have much depth. I’ve had many compliments on it though!!

A classic Elizabeth Arden fragrance. The new packaging and bottle design is a wonderful face lift for this product. A very good every day fragrance that lasts the day. It is very true in this case that a little goes a long way. Use this fragrance sparingly or it has the ability to be very overpowering. This fragrance has lasted the test of time and is a favourite for many women. Although having said that, fragrance is a very personal thing and often what appeals to one person may not appeal to the next. Always use a tester before purchasing something as personal as a fragrance. Red Door is not expensive and as it is a fairly large bottle really good value for money.

It smells funny but its really good. I would rather buy the other Arden purfumes but this one is definitely one to try. I wore it to work and it lasted a long time and sometimes I just liked smelling my clothes coz it smelt so good.

I've worn this on and off over a few years. It's a long-lasting scent, floral with a wee bit of spice but not fruity which I like. While I would wear it again, it's not my first choice however it's a well established fragrance, probably aimed at a slightly older audience and if you like something a bit stronger this might be the thing for you. Cute packaging as well!

Red door is a little sweet, and doesn’t suit me at all. I prefer something more floral and suttle, and this is quite an intense sweet scent.

i prefer different scents and i did not smell this before i bought it. however, i was regularly complimented on my perfume and the perfume latest all evening.

Lasts all day, very vintage flowery smell, is nice when worn at the right occasions. However I agree with Plumpy completely, this perfume has been ruined by people wearing it at supermarkets and pubs, I feel like there is no appreciation for this fragrance any-more and that it has received a bad reputation. It is a love-hate situation for me, its gorgeous worn at the right occasion, but unfortunately to many women wear it anywhere and everywhere.

First off, unwrapping the redesigned bottle is a treat. It's now a red pressed glass bottle in the shape of a door, and a very attractive addition to your fragrance collection. Having never bought this scent before - probably because of the old red and gold packaging, I was pleasantly surprised with the floral scent. Yes it probably does suit a slightly older consumer profile, but I was happy to use this and I will continue to do so. The staying-power of this fragrance was actually quite staggering. After about 12 hours, it's still there. However, it's not an over-powering scent at all, and really pleasant for every day use. It also got the thumbs-up from my hubby, which is of course, quite important. Over all, it scored high marks with me.

I was lucky enough to get this perfume from the previous beauty vault -thanks BR! Red Door is really known as an iconic fragrance, so I really wanted to try this for myself.

Firstly, the perfume is in the shape of a red door, which is distinctive in itself. It looks elegant and different than other perfume bottles I have on my dresser. The gold top looks lovely against the red colour of the bottle.

Secondly, the scent is hard to define but it's a lovely mix of florals (rose, jasmine, violets, lilies and more) yet smells slightly spicy as well. I find it to be a beautiful scent that is quite different to the other fragrances I own.

Just a little spray really lasts for a significant amount of time. Even after a full day I can smell the lingering notes of this fragrance. The staying power really is amazing.

I think some people may view this as an 'older lady' scent but I think it really can appeal to a wide range of women as its such a classic and sophisticated scent.

Overall I'm impressed and glad I got to try this lovely, timeless fragrance.

For those of you who haven't tried this fragrance, go ahead you might be surprised!
