YVES SAINT LAURANT  Cinema, is  glamorous, seductive, startling.

Cinéma, a floral sophisticated and original enough for a starring role. Morning blooms open in a fresh accord, shimmering with cyclamen, almond and Clementine.

Middle notes of amaryllis and Sambac jasmine then lead the way to depth and mystery, where amber, white musk and vanilla take a brilliant turn. Set-lighting-inspired crystal flacon with gold stopper.

Pretty Nice

My first experience with Cinema was when a shop assistant sprayed this on a paper strip. I don't find this to be a good way to test a perfume, and I was put off Cinema because of this.

I eventually did a blind buy on the EDP when I found it on sale. I am glad I did.

I find Cinema to be an incredibly wearable; sweet; winter type of scent. The note that stands out the most to me is the vanilla (one person told me the smell of my perfume was making her hungry!)

The bottle is very luxe looking with the gold patterns.

The lasting power is approx 5 hours and the silliage is moderate.

If Cinema was a movie, it would be a mainstream flick: aimed at a mass audience; not controversial; familiar but different at the same time.

Tips: Cinema has been discontinued from what I have read. Serpentine by Cavalli has been compared to this as being similar though I have not tried this myself so cannot compare. I believe that has also been discontinued

Timeless Elegance

Another one of my favourite perfumes. I'm on my second bottle now so I'm not sick of it yet. Not sure how to describe this, not floral, not fruity, not fresh or citrusy, maybe vanillary, slightly sugary, lightly spicy, cakey by the sounds of it, really sweetly elegant. I can really imagine this being worn by the movie stars of old, hence the name Cinema I suppose.

Tips: This is an excellent one for mixing with other perfumes. The first time I tried this at the chemist I had Escada Sentiment on my other wrist and got complimented in the next shop about how nice it was. Oh and the glittering body oil is fantastic, hard to put on out of the bottle though, drips all over the place. I put mine into a cleaned empty roll on deodorant bottle and just roll it on, perfect!

My special occassion scent

This scent is the bomb! Very classy and it last all day long. Really perfect for dates or special occasions or if you're out all night or day. I love the smell, it's not too strong or too light. just exactly what I want from a perfume.

Yves St Laurent Bliss

I was lucky enough to receive this as a Christmas gift and I think it just might the best gift ever. The perfume is just divine and worked well on my skin. It lasted all day with just a top up for the evening. I truly recommend it. Love the bottle also

Tips: Buy it and try.

One of my favourite perfumes

I love this perfume. On me the scent starts out quite acidic and fresh, but deepens quite a bit and becomes more warm and woody.

I have the 50 ml EDP currently, and have been wearing this scent on and off for the last five years or so. It's definitely one of my signature scents.

I like wearing it in winter, though I have found that when I get warmer, the perfume becomes stronger. The smell lasts all day on your skin and even gets into your clothes. I often get told that I smell nice when wearing this!

Absolut Signature Scent,

WOW just wow , I first received Cinema as a gift when I was 17, ever since I have been hooked, it was the only designer perfume I would purchase. It is such an elegant and sexy perfume that once warmed into the skin creates a delicate, softly fresh floral smell with warm sweet vanilla powdery notes. Clean, clear, translucent, and very slightly bitter from the yellow florals, but in the end, the amber benzoin base notes dominate with the almond blossom, leaving the wearer cocooned in a warm, sweet cloud of scent. Have found my man is a lot more affectionate when I am wearing this :) its my go to, sexy, warm, confident scent .

Cinema

I love this scent. It was chosen for me one day in duty free when I was too undecided and once home away from all the conflicting smells I fell in love with it. When I first spray it can be a bit overpowering but quickly blends in and smells lovely. the scent lasts all day on both my skin and clothing and I have often been complemented while wearing it. I would describe it as a strong but gentle floral scent that can change depending on your body temp. Comes in a very pretty bottle as well.

Lovely combination of elegance and glamour

I've always kept a bottle of Cinema amongst my collection and it doesn't matter what new perfumes I love and use over time, I still like to go back to Cinema every now and then. This is one of the few perfumes I use which has a lasting scent and the sillage is quite good. I also love the warmth of the dry down which has a faint smell of vanilla.

Love love love

I discovered this perfume not too long ago and thought it was new lol (I must have been living under a rock). I absolutely love this stuff! The staying power is amazing, it lasts forever and the longer you leave it on the better it smells. It's a very seductive and mature scent. Makes you feel oh so grown up. A little bit pricey for a big bottle but well worth it as a little goes a long way with this stuff! Highly recommended for anyone that is looking for a new scent.

suductive and waring

This is just the perfect dinner/romantic evening perfume. The seductive musk tones warm you right through to those tingly spots all over your body. This does not wear off easily and just makes you glow
