Taylor Swift Wonderstruck

Customer Reviews


Received the largest 3.4 OZ bottle of this yesterday. I was worried this would be too much of a tween fragrance for those of us over 25, but I was pleasantly surprised. I purchased this without testing it first when I read the notes. (The top notes are raspberry, dewberry, freesia and apple blossom. The heart has sweet vanilla along with honeysuckle and white hibiscus and it finishes with amber, musk, sandalwood and peach in the base)
Peach, vanilla and raspberry are some of my favorite notes in fragrances so when I saw all three in this one I couldn't resist. Upon first spray it smelt like BS Fantasy (which is one my favs) but that only lasted for about 2 seconds and then it evolved into something completely different.
For the first 10 minutes, Wonderstruck smells mostly of vanilla and candied raspberries on my skin, then the heart comes through and you do get the white hibiscus and more of the freesia from the top note. The apple is hard to detect, I can smell it when first sprayed slightly, but only for the initial spray, it really is overpowered by that raspberry. There is also a strong note of honeysuckle in this and combined with the vanilla it is a very sweet scent. Once it settles on my skin the fragrance is a very fruity raspberry-vanilla-slightly floral-honeysuckle. Very very sweet, it's definitely a gourmand scent, so you really need to like gourmands to like this.
Lasting power is pretty good, about 6 hrs on me. Towards to end of the day when it's down to the base it leaves a nice vanilla-y amber scent on the skin, I never do detect any peach in this at all at any point throughout the day, so if you're not a peach fan, nothing to worry about there. It does remind me slightly of a mix of BS fantasy (which is a sweeter cake gourmand and PH Can Can (very sweet but slightly oriental feel), it definitely has a candied sweetness about it, but it's much more vanilla based than both those. A nice sweet vanilla scent that doesn't feel too young.

I sprayed this on me today, left it on my wrist for about 30 min to an hour for it to set in before I judged the scent. Now I can't stop smelling my wrist. This stuff is amazing! I wasn't sure what to expect with Taylor Swift, BUT I am so so happy with this perfume. To me, it's classy (anyone could wear this, older, younger, whatever), light, slightly musky, mixed with vanilla-y notes. (I never read the actual notes because I don't really understand it... but that is my version of what it smells like. lol) It first reminded me of Fantasy by Britney Spears, but it seems like a lighter smelling version of that. I find that sometimes Fantasy can be overpowering, although I really do love that one as well! This is a bit pricey, which is unfortunate, but it's worth the price if you can afford it.
