I had very high hopes for this fragrance. Because of this, I ordered the gift set, even though I had never experienced the fragrance before. My initial spray smelled very alcohol like. After 2 hours of wear, I could not smell the fragrance on myself nor could others. For me this fragrance was not worth the price as it needed reapplied throughout the day. The bottle is beautiful but this does not make up for the fragrance strength. Thank you.
