I got a mini in a random ebay lot, and it had a fruit note that was not bad, considering I don't like fruit perfume.

When I wore it, it was by Bourjois (basenotes now lists it as "by Stephanie of Monaco", so maybe you can pick it up on a trip to Monaco?) - one of the best, spiciest oriental fragrances ever, without being overly warm or cuddly (but then the Princess is hardly warm and cuddly herself).

A professional nose was quoted in Allure as saying that if you tested it blind, you'd mistake it for a Tom Ford perfume, and I agree. As an aside, I could swear I saw the flanker (Billionaire Boyfriend) in my local Sephora the last time I was there. I think that's the one that should have been discontinued. <br /><br />While I'm thinking about this, why doesn't Martha Stewart have a perfume contract?
