Elizabeth Arden Red Door Review

This perfume was long lasting and lasted all day. In the end I didn't like how strong it was and didn't wear it often because of it. It smells nice but just far too strong for me because it overpowers everything else when I was wearing it. I love the bottle it's so cute and it's easy to use.

I honestly cannot understand how this fragrance is so popular!! Maybe I'm not the right target age group for it (I get the impression it's a more mature ladies scent- a classic that's been around for years and people that have had it keep getting it?!) I'm not sure- but I'm sure of one thing this fragrance is definitely not for me!!

The bottle is classy and classic- a simple design that looks beautiful. The price is reasonable as well - that's about the only positives I have .., The scent is just so overpowering and very distinct - not a bad thing if you don't mind it but for me I can smell it a mile away (and it's not good!) ... Usually I'm a huge fragrance fan but this one just failed to win me over.

I have had this perfume numerous times over the years and must say its best suited for mature person or a strong woman (meaning skin tone, as I am maori and its suits me perfectly) as the scent can be quite powerful. Its great for daywear, as I wore it for work (its lasts for hours) as the saying goes a lil goes a long way. Although it was released many years ago older I love the classic rose red perfume scent.

This is one of my favourite fragrances. This is the smell that I would always smell as a child, this is my mum's favourite perfume. I love the spicyness to it. It's gentle but has a bit of a kick to it. I absolutely love it. I personally would never wear it, but that's just because I've grown up smelling it on my mum, and now it's like it's her signature smell. However I definitely recommend it.

I've worn this on and off over a few years. It's a long-lasting scent, floral with a wee bit of spice but not fruity which I like. While I would wear it again, it's not my first choice however it's a well established fragrance, probably aimed at a slightly older audience and if you like something a bit stronger this might be the thing for you. Cute packaging as well!

This perfume is particularly special to me because it reminds me of my Nana as we used to buy it for her. I wear it myself, although I would suggest that it is a fragrance possibly more for older women. As a fragrance it is not my first choice, as stated above I own it more for sentimental reasons.

The perfume itself is both floral and spicy. I could really smell the rose, sandelwood freesia and jasmine coming through. I also thought I smelt orange blossom. The perfume itself was also quite strong so I would recommend lightly spraying it and only adding more if really required.

I really love the bottle it comes in, the red door is a classic, iconic bottle and such a beautiful colour. They've also choosen a really classy design unlike so many perfumes.

I have rated it slightly lower on would I recommend it to a friend, because it would depend on who the friend in question was. Basically, if you are a classy lady who enjoys floral and spice this perfume is for you.

This perfume has a very distinctive smell to it. I find it to be a slight mix of spicy with a floral touch to it. I find of all the notes in this that the lilly of the valley and the red rose are what I can smell above the others. I love that you only need to spray a simple one spray on each week and the smell is long and lasting through out the day.

I love the classy bottle and that this perfume has been around for years and they have updated the look of the bottle to go with the times. This perfume is an absolute classic and will be around for a long time to come.

This also very affordable price wise which is a bonus.

Another favourite of mine down to earth scent yet amazing smell loved by women all over the world. Last's forever & don't need much. Reasonably priced these days compared to when first popular.

I just don't like this fragrance! My nana has worn this for as long as I can remember and, as much as I love my nana, the scent really catches in the back of the throat. It's horrendously strong (and no, nana doesn't marinade in it...) and lingers for hours. If you're after a strong, bold, statement scent that demands people stop and see where it's coming from then OK, this product might be for you. If you're a little more reserved, stay away from the Red Door!

This reminds me of my mum sooo much, shes always wearing it! She bought me a bottle of it but i havent really used it alot, its more of a mature smell then i like to wear so i dont get much use out of it. however i do love the smell :) just not on me
