About this deal

I love this nice and and pleasant scent from this designer. It was a true blind buy indeed. One day I was shopping at Macy's and stumbled accross this nice periwinkle-blue chubby chubby square bottle with a flat round top. It was cheap too ! Why not ? What surprised me was that there is no vanilla flower listed! If you like the Body Shop Madagascan Vanilla Flower and HP Eau Sensuelle, you will enjoy this. They don't smell the same but have similar characteristics. However, I find if I spray heavy and allow the opening of Flash to linger a little more, it is quite similar to other sweetish jasmine/white floral perfumes I've come across including Alien (and Burberry London but still not a dupe). I travel a lot for my work. International flights are great because I get to sniff lots of happy bottles at duty free shops at various airports. But once I'm on board I take good care not to suffocate fellow passengers with my monster fragrances. This is an interesting white floral scent with spicy pink pepper. Something about it makes me sneeze. I see how it was supposed to shining and dazzling, but for me it's just a little too sharp.

The base is a soft vanilla with hints of sandalwood and, excuse me if I'm wrong but I smell this; caramel. A cosy, comforting and truly original note.The good news is that Flash is my favorite so far in this series. The bad news is that 1000 x 0 = 0. Okay, that was a bit of an exaggeration. This smells better than the average totally abstract chemical soup. I see that the designer was Christine Nagel, who has produced many fine perfumes. This is not one of them, but relative to the other Jimmy Choos, Flash is pretty good. Well, this perfume is distinct. It is a scent that you can easily fall victim to adoring. As I am on my second bottle. The perfume itself is a light lavender colour in a studded cube bottle topped with a crystal shaped lid. The bottle doesn't really do it for me, but the perfume itself is fascinating. Once the drydown commences, the heliotrope pushes its way in. I can smell the slightly-sweet doughiness among the soft wood and persistent white flowers. The fragrance lasts for a moderate-to-long amount of time--maybe 5-7 hours. The projection is moderate at most. Whereas jimmy choo's flash,it starts off with spicy-peppery scent.a little bit citrusy but not that much/not so noticeable...as I assume the pepper dominates the most n somehow hindered the tangerine fruit.then comes the floral-oriental part..it also smells powdery n sort of strawberry-ish sweet scent..maybe it's just me as I sense cinnamon-like smell in flash..not much but the cinnamon thingy was there although it isn't stated as one of the ingredients used.

A beautiful scent with a heady tuberose,pink pepper,strawberry and woody is which I detect. It has a unique scent,very sparkly,and feminine,it is one of those fragrances which has a softness,but still commands power. I was pleasently surprised!I love white florals,tuberose and lily are my beloved ones but I mostly need a fruity note to balance their heavy indolic creaminess to turn them to a wearable fragrance for me I find this fragrance glamorous and sexy. Warm flowers, woods and a little bit of that strawberry note makes it special. Its very longlasting -on my skin stays all day and changes a lot. This scent has managed an interesting blend: the pleasant tartness of a not-quite ripe strawberry w/ the sweet creaminess of pink pepper and jasmine. Just a touch of tuberose fullness to round it out makes for a fresh & semisweet tart white floral. Different and fun, this is a compliment getter on me so far. I am pleasantly surprised by this Choo creation, and upon looking at the notes I am even more surprised. Perhaps it's my chemistry but upon first spray this smells to me as a delicious aquatic with a musk undertone and a hint of vanilla.

supposed to resemble the energy of going out. OK. Where do people go out these days? Overpriced table service? Minimal dancing? Heels they can't walk in? ok, got it.And, not just because it so complimented, I love it ....because, finally I discovered in all its splendor . It's a fresh breath from the *usual * gourmand and IMHO is far more original than Choo's "Jimmy Choo".

Jimmy Choo FLASH Eau de Parfum 60ml- Boots

I like this, but it's nothing special. I am a huge fan of the original Jimmy Choo fragrance, but this is just 'meh'. By all means, I don't think that every new perfume release has to be something mind-blowing and unique, and I still think that Flash is a pleasant perfume, that can and is enjoy by many people. I'd recommend it if you like rich white florals, or are looking for a good, beginner tuberose scent. This fragrance is not very sweet, something one can wear everyday. I got an instant compliment the day I wore it for the first time. The lady at the coffee shop said, "You smell excellent !" I was like "Oh wow !" in my head. You don't have permission to access "http://www.superdrug.com/fragrance/jimmy-choo/b/409012" on this server. Received a sample of this in a swap with Perfume Whore. What a lovely surprise! I was always curious. I love white florals these days and have a soft spot for the gaudy bottle.This came in my scentbox this month. My boyfriend and I both agree that on me it smells like bubble gum. Just straight bubble gum until about an hour later when it just smells like powder. I am going to try it again and see if this changes. I am jealous because he sprayed it on himself and it was a beautiful floral scent. It never changed on him, it just stayed smelling floral. I could definitely see wearing it in the winter as it just seems to smell like that is better weather for it. If it stays as bubble gum on me then I won't be wearing it. I love sweeter scents but this reminds me of sugar free bubble gum from when I was a kid. Overall I like it. I was wearing it Saturday night and one of the girls asked me what smelled soooooo gooood .....she was surprised it was Flash as she said she sniffed it in the shop the other day and it was horrible...... I just HAD to try this, it sounded right up my alley - some of my favorite notes are tuberose, jasmine, heliotrope and woods! Admittedly, I had high hopes for it. Flash a pleasant, soft, white floral fragrance, which really doesn't make me think of parties or clubbing (which is what the marketing campaign seems to be aiming at)... It's rather a very gentle, cuddly and calm fragrance, and it really doesn't scream 'party animal'. Personally, when I think of a party fragrance, I imagine something sparkling, fruity, and uplifting, like Escada perfumes. Flash on the other hand, is just like a big, romantic white floral bouquet. It's definitely not a very 'flashy' scent, but rather a sophisticated and mature fragrance. I think it's a good perfume for a more formal night out, a date, dinner at a restaurant, when you want to smell elegant and feminine.
