About this deal

I have read so many reviews including SuzySchnabel's, the one I have is the typical reformulated 30ml bottle found everywhere which doesn't last AT ALL or have the old notes. Maybe that unique gothic fragrance mentioned in most of the reviews below is a vintage version of Anna Sui. When sniffing from the bottle, and when first applied, it smells quite glamorous and romantic – and I tried it on after encouraging comments here that it has rose and iris, two of my favourite accords – but soon enough, on me it began to smell like a cheap substitute for something glamorous, like PVC rather than leather, and polyester rather than silk.

It's quirky nature appeals to those who enjoy 80's weirdo's like the Cure or Kate Bush even though it is a late nineties creation it fits perfectly with this aesthetic. If the item comes direct from a manufacturer, it may be delivered in non-retail packaging, such as a plain or unprinted box or plastic bag.Maybe the phase that comes afterwards, leading to its gradual, but relentless, disappearance, is what makes this scent a gothic fragrance.

I'm glad to have a mini of this, but this won't become one of my frequent wear fragrances-its just too predictable as a scented experience-pleasant, but surely boring to many, and not addictive to my nose. The success of Anna Sui continues to grow in abundance both inside and out of her domination in women's fashion and highly successful fragrance range, with her designs attracting many famous women celebrity clients including Blake Lively, Naomi Campbell, Sofia Coppola, Liv Tyler and Courtney Love.

Ah the explanation: For anyone who frequents NY, it's not uncommon for celebrities to wander about out in the open with the rest of the herd and blend in seamlessly. I'm kind of getting tired of it since I used a lot of it but I really enjoyed it when I first got it. I must confess I rejected her at first, she was a gift that gathered dust on my shelf for about a year.

From that description, you might imagine it to be a bleak and desolate perfume and why would anyone in their right mind want to smell like dead flowers? It still smells amazing on my skin though, and I've never come across another perfume that was so spot on.

Yes, it might seem old-fashioned, and it still smells like a bouquet of dust-covered, withering flowers, but therein lies its beauty, suspended in time. I just wish it had an undercurrent of skank to bring out the gothic promise (very American that way).

At first I thought it smelt a little stronger on the paper strip and on skin; but when I got home and compared the two, both fragrances had this unfortunate disappearing act.

I smirked and his stoic blank stare turned into a half smile, his arms unlinked from his date and he slowly pulled out sunglasses and placed them on his face. Please read the full reviews and consider your own needs and preferences before making a purchasing decision. Anna Sui started out as a fashion designer in the 1980s and over the years has branched into make-up and fragrance.

To me this smells exactly like old books or like the smell you'd get from picking up a vintage fur coat. The orris root was extremely dominant, the rose dusty and moldy, the other notes fairly non-existent to me.
