Out of the four I have from Ellen Tracy, this is the only one to give me pause and I think I can safely pin that on the licorice. It is the difference between you being worn by haute couture and you taking an outfit and absolutely making it your own.

The brand changed hands a few times, and while it’s not the household name it used to be, it’s still kickin’, focusing on the working woman’s wardrobe.I am not one for flowery perfumes, but this one is very different - the lower sandalwood, musk notes blend the beginning flower notes you first smell - I have a more acidic body chemistry and this smells very clean and soft. The brand is continuously evolving, redefining the essence of the Ellen Tracy experience with every new launch. The lime, lemon, plum and peach all 'curtsy' together and lead you to the inner room where there are comfy sofas and a relaxed but elegant feeling. i was intrigued to try this after reading reviews on fragrantica, and after having good luck with ellen tracy's bronze.

Sprightly with a note similar to apple cider, it's interesting, but the dry down ruins anything likable about this fragrance. Subtle and long-lasting, and good for the office, where other sweet perfumes might come across as too playful. com, as well as all of our partner sites, are 100% authentic, original products manufactured by the original designer.

A design whiz who took the reins in the ’60s and transformed the brand into a fashion go-to for working women. Ellen is listed as a floral woody musk, but I sense some gourmand going through the process, alternating with the woods for a position. I see the floral notes listed, but really don’t get the scent of any single bloom—just a general feminine feel; and a lightness, almost a crispness that keeps some of the heavier notes from taking over, I think which also comes from the faintly lingering bergamot-citrus notes.

It's always been my traditional autumn scent, reminding me of those walks through the rustling leaves, enjoying autumn's smoky scent, the vibrance of oranges, golds, and reds. This, for me, was a barrage of cinnamon -- like when you eat on of those cinnamon hard candies that's so strong, it feels like cinnamon is coming out of your ears.The powder note that some people detect comes from the amber and orris root but is not "old lady" powdery. com, the Sell on Etsy app, and the Etsy app, as well as the electricity that powers Etsy’s global offices and employees working remotely from home in the US. Without these technologies, things like personalised recommendations, your account preferences, or localisation may not work correctly. I do get the strong licorice smell at first, but it quickly fades and leaves behind an inoffensive but somewhat unique woodsy scent. This was a pure accident and to me this perfume has that certain something that puts it above too many other perfumes.
