    This is the scent you wear when you want to smell approachable yet put-tog ether. It's sweet without being immature, floral without being stuffy, and the patchouli in the drydown gives it just enough.La Vie Est Belle
    BCBG Max Azria is strawberry-dominant, sweet, and a little linear. That's not a criticism, it's the whole point. The sweetness never gets aggressive or cloying, just sweet enough to remember.Bcbgmaxazria
