Katy Perry Mad Potion Eau de Parfum for Women, 100 ml

Product Information

When I got into the car, I really couldn't believe that the most pleasant perfume amongst the ones I tried was pretty much THIS. To be honest, the beginning reminds me of Jeu d'Amour l'Elixir Kenzo, not that is similar, just my nose makes a shadow of correlation with it. She uses it with a passion both spray as well as a lotion and washing gel and she decided that if they offered her to signature another fragrance, there is nothing to do then trying to make an exact copy of Vanilla YR. When you first spray it, there's this overwhelming alcohol smell-- ultimately drying down to a very alcohol/plastic vanilla apple.

I didn't pay a lot for my bottle, and I had tested the scent first, so I will not complain about the quality. Mad Potion's skin scent properties make it ideal for hot humid summer conditions because it actually lasts up to 12 hours on me and does not overwhelm me or anyone in my vicinity. While not a bad scent by any means, it should be noted that the vanilla notes are extremely weak, and almost smell as if someone diluted half the bottle with water. I love the mixture of apple, peony, orchid and jasmine, with the smooth, delicious and creamy vanilla, musk and amber. I liked it enough that I took the strip home and was greeted with a sexy, generic, vanilla scent reminiscent of something you'd find in the late 90's early 2000's.I just want u to know guys that perfume here in the philippines are so expensive comparing to other country like usa. I find that as the hours go by and as the fragrance mixes with your body heat, it kind of regenerates itself throughout the day but still stays close to you.

It's very feminine, and not at all too sweet; it has a good balance of the flowers and apple, with the very lovely vanilla and musk. It reminds me of a watered down version of angel which is appropriate to wear to the work place without offending anyone.

It's still pretty straightforward, don't get me wrong (I get vanilla, musk, and orchid and that's pretty much it, there are some other subtle nuances but it's all about the vanilla). There are already 20 inexpensive versions of Pink Sugar out there with nice bottles that don't drudge up Beverly Hills 90210. Rather than being a sweet fruity floral like her well-received Killer Queen and Purr, Mad Potion is a sweet musky fragrance.

I admit I much prefer up-in-your-face perfumes like Angel, so maybe that's why I wasn't into this one. Still, it's a nice scent that sits fairly close to the skin and smells youthful without feeling like you're drowning in a sea of sugar. Please read the full reviews and consider your own needs and preferences before making a purchasing decision. The vanilla notes (all 3 of them, mind you) are very well done and have an almost powdery quality to them, while the apple and amber notes mix in well to give the fragrance an overall musky quality combined with the sweetness. I had purchased a bottle a couple months ago and I reach for it so often that I'm already almost out.Smelled this in Walmart and I dismissed this thinking that it was a cheap version of "Aquolina's Pink Sugar". I have the EDP version as well, and I have my nose pressed into my skin like a mad woman, and even after six sprays, I can hardly smell it. This is strange, to me, because my perception of this fragrance seems to go back and forth every time I smell it. These emphasise the masculinity and can be combined well with other scents of pepper, cinnamon or nutmeg.
