The past 2 times I've purchased it, not only has it not smelled the same, it smelled BAD. LIke insect repellant! Should I try the perfume?

I like this but perhaps you should spray it on at the mall and try it there

I have been using Shalimar for the past 30 years and I never had a bad bottle of any of the different varieties. Are you sure you purchased genuine Shalimar and not a knock off?

I would send it back. My Shalimar, although I agree it does not smell like it did years ago, does smell like perfume. Mine did not have any insect repellant scent. Something isn't right.

I bought it as a gift for my wife who used to wear it frequently as her favorite perfume. She has since had severe health problems, but I still have her wear it several times a week. It's scent is every bit just like I remembered it and family members always remark about how they remember it from when she used to wear it and they still enjoy the scent. I couldn't be more pleased.

for me I got the perfume, and it smell just like Shalimar. I been using it since I was 16 years old. I will never change.

Yes, this is the original one that you're wanting, however, as someone who has worn this for over seven years, I was dissatisfied with this purchase. I know what Daisy smells like since I wear it everyday and the bottle I ordered from Amazon was not as strong as the bottles I buy elsewhere. The perfume appeared to be diluted and the scent quickly faded. I would recommend purchasing from a department or specialty makeup store.

I bought two perfumes and two colognes....they don't smell like they should. They're probably watered down...that's why they're cheaper. That could be the reason....

Smells are hard to describe and they're also pretty subjective. For myself, I can't imagine why that person said it smelled bad. It doesn't smell like expensive perfume, but you wouldn't want it to. I think it's rather mild and pleasant. What I can tell you is that it's excellent for your skin.

Hello, Gina, yes I also have this perfume Creation and love it since I first bought it in 1986 in the US! There are actually two different bottles for this perfume: one of them is just like the one in the picture (which is the older bottle) and the other is round, but I've already had both types and they are both original perfumes. Take care!! Fabiana

Please...for all our sakes... We NEED to know what we are buying and from whom. I buy a perfume called SPELLBOUND... an Elizabeth Arden product.TWICE I have bought after market bottles. In the SAME bottles and the SAME box. Each time, the perfume was slightly different... scent did not last as long and the color of the liquid was darker. So please DO.... HELP KEEP BUYERS INFORMED. Thank-you for even bringing the topic to the surface.Sharron Brown Yachats, Oregon

Hello - I personally didn't even know that "Jean Nate" had made Jean Nate. Also I was not aware that it was made by Revlon - I guess I just wasn't paying attention; however,for me, I just remembered how it smelled. When I received the item, it smelled as I remembered. There may be a difference, which is possible especially if companies change owners, perfume ingredients are change, etc., but the bath splash smelled the same to me. I suggest to give it a try and see for yourself. If it smells the way you don't remember, you'll know - it's a smell that's very distinct.

My opinion is that the fragrance is mild. However, I'm leery of even saying that because I am concerned you may think otherwise. I think something like fragrance is quite subjective. My idea of mild may not be yours! :-) Whether this product's fragrance is mild or not...it does last for a couple of days. Does that mean it's over-perfumed?

It wasnt the nasty smell. To me it smelled just like the lotion. That ome reason why i love her line!

My Box it came in didn't address the subject. However I just gave it the sniff test and didn't get a perfume odor. Hope this helps you.

Mine was original ... I would want the eau de parfum , not the toilette . The parfum is always more intense . If the seller has a good reputation , I would not be worried . If he has sold fakes in the past ,reviews will state that. I love Euphoria!! It gets many compliments. I recently tried Calvin Klein Obsession . I had never wanted to try it because the commercials annoyed me . It is an older fragrance , but a KILLER!!!! I have many perfumes but these are two of the finest , and can be purchased reasonably compared to Chanels . They both draw compliments and are simply fantastic creations, esp for the price! They also are really long lasting . I love both! Mine was original ... I would want the eau de parfum , not the toilette . The parfum is always more intense .

Yes. I have been wearing this perfume for about a year now. I use to purchase it at the large retail chain and paid double the price for it. Great price, the real product, great size as well.

I had no way of checking, and just gambled with it. In my opinion, it's the real deal and I'd order it again. I love the scent, and I get compliments on it, so that's good enough for me! Good luck! (please let us know if you order and get a bad bottle?)

I am not quite sure whether it is the same as in the store or not because it's my first time to purchase this perfume and I have got it online but I doubt that it would be original. BTW, I bought from BeautyEncounter which has a very high rating, so I would suggest you try another seller if you really want to.

Okay then it's not just me! I found the same thing with the two that I have used and am very disappointed. I finally bought the spray and use it where we have two kitty litter boxes. I have one in the living room and haven't been able to notice any wonderful fragrance! I thought maybe I had put the refill in wrong and keep checking the directions but I have done it right!

This perfume is no longer being made. The current inventory is of less quality, and thefragrance is not of the same quality. My wife used it for 20 years and will no longerit.She said it smelled like it watered down.

Hi Janet! I would say shop on amazon for another company who has the 1oz for a cheaper price. If you want the most for your money, I would say get the 3.4oz. I love this perfume. The smell is unique and I always get compliments. Good Luck on whatever you select! Sheryl!
