Elizabeth Arden 5th Avenue NYC DREAM Eau de de Parfum Spray, 75ml, Floral & Amber Fragrance, Luxury Perfume for Women

This smells heavenly but it doesn’t seem to last long - at least I can’t smell it. But in the hope that my husband can still smell it, but he has never complimented me on my perfume when he has done so with other perfumes, I use it a lot because as I said it smells heavenly so still five stars.

First impression of bottle: I like the style which is carried over from the famous original. It’s stylish and simple. But I’m not the biggest fan of the blue coloured label design. The lid is a mixture of gold plastic and frosted plastic. Kinda looks cheap if you stare at it too long. But who cares when the scent is actually pretty good.This Dream EDP lasted quite a while on me. I started off with a good 6 bursts of spray. On wrists and clothes. I was pleased to find, that it didn’t start off with an over whelming too flowery a scent. In fact it’s was subtle and clean smelling. Best of all the dry down scent was even better. I caught a whiff of my wrist hours later on. It was smooth and alluring. And not sickly sweet, nor did it vanish into thin air like so many others do.This is definitely a fragrance I would wear in the summer months. Especially in the evenings.Best way I can describe the fragrance, is a smooth creamy musk. Sea air and almonds almost springs to mind. But it is more complicated than that. It’s a light but almost sensual scent. I can see why it was called Dream. The dry down is really nice and only takes about 20 mins from the first initial sprays.

So I'm not a perfume expert by any stretch of the imagination. In fact, the way I judge a perfume from being good or bad is simply, does it smell good and does it last? This one happily ticks both of those boxes for me. I do tend to categorise my perfumes into day or evening ones, and this one would fall into a day one for me as it is a lighter, fresher scent than some of my others that are a little muskier and heavier.Elizabeth Arden has been a huge name for as long as I can remember, so I was very happy to try this perfume out and it certainly does hold its own against some of the other famous name perfumes I have in my collection. It comes in a simple but classic bottle and I'd say the price point is pretty much average for a perfume in this bracket.This is a scent that is on my dressing table and is used regularly as my 'daywear' perfume. I also had my first compliment on it yesterday, which is always a good sign. Recommended 5/5

Known these brand as my grandma use to use this when young and has a nice brand of creams as well. very good, you will pay for a good quality product, smell is perfect for a young woman/teenager or even older.Scent is floral without being to intense, has a hint of amber and did felt a bit of cedar as well.scent last for long hours and you will not feel an intense smell but a nice smell on you. perfect for spring, summer and even autumn. love it. really good for gifting.Bottle is nice, simple but elegant.

This Elizabeth Arden perfume comes in a good looking bottle. It contains 75 Millilitres (although that is not displayed on the bottle itself). It has a pull off top and it then releases the perfume in mist form.It has a very pleasant smell, which seems to last for a long time. It didn’t cause any reactions on the skin. You really do get the mix of woody undertones, floral scents and a more edgy spicy like scent which I am sure must be related to the pink pepper and blackcurrant buds.All in all a very nice scent that lasts, which is in a good looking bottle.
