Looking at other recent Bath and Body Works fragrances, I think they're trying to tap into the same vein of some popular fragrances (and what perfume house doesn't do this when someone else launches a scent that grab's the public's imagination?) Kudos to them for branching out into more sophisticated perfumery. It's not a blatant knock-off of any of the above scents. Black Amethyst - you are a-okay in my books!ĭoes it smell like Tom Ford Black Orchid? Yes, a little.Does it smell like Chanel Coco Mademoiselle? Yes, a little.Does it smell like Viktor and Rolf's Flowerbomb? Yes, a little.Black Amethyst seems to be 'inspired' by several popular and high-selling fragrances, but it also smells unique. Any pleasant smell has a time and a place, and while I don't love this fragrance I will still give it a thumbs up simply for the low price tag on a surprisingly lovely fragrance for those times when you just don't care to bring out the big guns, or those times that we all have when we just can't splurge on the pricier stuff. This is much more complex than I ever would have imagined from BBW, and I now feel like a snooty jackass for having scoffed the idea of trying it for so long.You can't write off a perfectly nice (I didn't say 'amazing') fragrance because it is a bit of a rip-off of some other favorites. In contrast, the dry down has a much deeper earthy pitch to it without losing any sexy (albeit younger) femininity. The first sniff is a little sweet (although again - not fruity nor melony) for my tastes, but it is the same with Coco Mademoiselle for me. I know the top notes are supposed to be comprised of fruit and melon or the equivalent of those, but I don't smell those notes one bit (thank goodness!). Is Black Amethyst close enough to remind me of Coco Mademoiselle without the guilt of 'wasting' my Chanel? Yes.Black Amethyst has more depth than many perfumes in the same price range, and on me I get all middle and bottom notes which is really great. Would I want to waste my Coco Mademoiselle during these moments? No. However, I like a spritz of a nice smell after the gym or in my car.or even when cleaning the house. I admit to having an off-again/on-again love affair with Japanese Cherry Blossom (hey, the hubby finds it hot!) Being the snob that I am, I probably would never wear these fragrances when going out.like 'out out,' and probably not even to teach undergrads who honesty don't care about my class nor my perfume. I have enjoyed a couple (and I do mean no more than 2 or 3) fragrances from BBW, besides my love for the Scentport plug-ins (sandalwood vanilla rocks!). You have to give Bath and Body Works a little credit for this one. Compared with other jewelers, the good value for money is our prominent advantage.Okay - so I had to give my opinion on this 'popular for the masses' fragrance. Jeulia engagement rings focus on the style and texture, and all pieces seriously experienced the 8 step process while produced. Ultimately, it has been the complex and diverse piece, and the best-selling jewelry among all bridal jewelries. In history, Engagement Rings have experienced seven times evolution including design philosophy, design element and design theme. In some countries, the engagement rings will also be used as marriage rings. In general, the engagement ring is habitually worn on the left-hand ring finger until it is replaced with wedding ring. Since the 20th century, it has been a necessary process to purchase engagement ring when a man gets ready to propose. Engagement ring is a ring symbolizing that the person wearing it is engaged to be married.
