Have tested exotic and hmm sweet and refreshing.
i still prefer pleasures original...
I find the limited edition and variations on the original Pleasures a little tricky... What I mean is that it can smell nice when you spray on at first. But after the scent develops, it turns strange on my skin. It has that weird metallic/pungent/changed smell.
However, the original Pleasure stays about the same in scent. In fact, it seems to smell even nicer after it reacts and develops on me.![]()
I had Pleasures Intense. That one's still my favourite. It has a very nostalgic feel/scent/atmosphere about it. When I was given the sample strip in 2002, I fell in love with it and kept smelling the strip the whole day. *lol* Reminded me of my family's garden in India. I got it for Christmas that year. Beautiful scent. Maybe a little mature, but lovely. I might consider buying it again when I'm 40.![]()
I' m not a big fan of any of the Pleasures, but if I have to choose one, it will be Intense. It is fuller, with more body and bite than the original, but still flowery. Makes a good office (as opposed to weekend) scent and is also strong enough to make the transition to after-work evenings out.
Exotic is too fruity and the new Delight has nothing in common with the original Pleasures. Instead, Delight seems rather gourman-oriental to me. Not my style, I'm afraid.
i love the original one!![]()
Has anyone tried the new Pleasures Delight? The description sounds so yummy!![]()
i prefer the original one too. The exotic one smells too mango for me, i like mangoes but not all over me.![]()
I prefer the original one. Exotic is quite strong for me.
