I purchased this as I came across a gift set containing a solid, a body lotion and a 50ml perfume for $21. I tried it when it first arrived and hated it… but was fascinated. I felt it smelled like fly spray, and yet could not stop inhaling my wrist! I find it both offensive and captivating. Still at the time it was $60 here in Australia and I passed, but over the years vowed to try it again. Well, now that I have I am obsessed with it, and it’s become my signature summer scent. I agree with the poster above that it is great for heat. There is something about it that reminds of me of No. 4711 but with this intoxicating vanilla-y base. It’s actually a very complex scent and I agree that hers are so well done for ‘celebrity’ perfume. I am addicted.

I bought this from eBay because I really really liked the comments of the people who liked this. And the controversity of it. I really do not like mainstream perfumes so I was sure this was the one for me. I bought it in September… and found it hard to wear, it was suffocating. But I tried it now, in the heatwave. This perfume NEEDS sweat! I am enjoying it every day now – it gives me the exact murkiness that I so love about perfumes, it’s really hard to find. Seems impossible but for me it’s a summer fragrance .

Everyone has different taste — sorry you bought it before you found out you hated it!

I recently purchased a bottle of the original Covet purely because it was so cheap and that I’d heard glowing reviews about. Well, it literally made me feel sick. I’m sorry to post a negative comment but I just cannot understand why this fragrance was ever invented. Obviously there are people out there that this fragrance works well with so I will be selling mine on ebay soon.

eek – I’ve been avoiding buying a back-up bottle of this because I have so many other FBs and things on my “to buy” list, but I might have to now. I don’t wear it that often, but I really like it when I do – as a bonus, I have a faulty spray nozzle on mine and the overspray makes my bathroom smell fantastic for days.

Thanks, Z. living on the other side of the world I don’t think I can take advantage of those absolute bargains. I DID get a back up bottle because i LOVE this juice, but it cost me $35! and thats for the 1 oz size.

FYI, in case people are looking for this. I saw large bottles of Covet and Covet Pure Bloom at TJ Maxx today for $20, plus little 1.0 oz. bottles of Covet for $10.

It’s a darned shame, agree…it was easily the most interesting scent she had done.
