does the fragrance resemble C. Howards violet mints?

I never smelled Violet Mints, so I can't tell you. All I can say is that Yardley's Violet Eau De toilette spray smells wonderful.

Does not at all resemble the smell of C.Howards violet mints! This perfume has a musty, lilac scent. Not the sweet high notes of the C. Howards candy mints. I tried the violet perfume by the company name: "save on scents," it smells identical to C. Howards mints.

I wish it smelled like that! It's smells nice but then I prefer French violets (look up violetas francesas) it's a baby cologne but I think this is closer to the candy

I have never smelt that (candy?). It does not smell like candy. It smells like a traditional violet fragrance. I think it's a nice fragrance for the price. If you're around people that can't handle heavy fragrances, this is one to wear.

I do not know if it resembles C. Howards violet mints. This is so light & really resembles what I remember from shopping in a downtown department stores & riding buses, when ladies wore hats & gloves. They wore delicate fragrances.

Yes, I believe it is. I have purchased it from the department store before so I would say the fragrance as well as the after notes were the same. The packaging was intact with all of the correct labels.I hope this is helpful.

It seems the same, though chemically I suppose there is no way to tell. There is still the same yummy smell and the same company listed as the manufacturer...the only difference I could see is my purple bottle listed parsol 1789, and I did not see it listed on the yellow bottle.

No, I believe the package was actually larger than it appeared and the fragrance is excellent. A good value. I'm very happy with it, it's my new favorite!

I have been a user of this fragrance for years. Something happened and they change the formula and the packaging.No, is not the original but I don't think the original exists any more.If your are a new user you won't notice the difference. It will last the same on you and smell alarmist the same.In my humble opinion.

Hi Cory, well I can say that it does somehow smell like Barbasol shaving cream, is a very interesting fragrance I use just for special occasion, you do not get unnoticed :) , is not very much like other perfumes I can probably say.I hope this can help you, Have a good one!

No. The best way to describe the scent is a cool breeze. Like an ocean and apple smell. Very fresh. I hope that helps.

Not at all. It is a very light fragrance with a touch of lavender, that does not linger. A little goes a long way, too. Love this product.

Yes, while both have the same basic smell, the Prada Candy Eau de Parfum is a more sophisticated and longer lasting smell. I actually prefer it.

Yes, it's in the original box & the scent is divine! I've worn this fragrance for abt 10 years.

I don't think so. Mine had that minty smell and feel to it. The ingredient listed eucalyptus which has that minty smell to it too.

I am not exactly sure. The perfume smells the same as the one I bought from Macy's but the smell does not last as long as the one I bought at Macy's. That is the only thing I noticed. Would I buy it again probably not. I would go with Macy's

This, I believe is the Original Charlie, which has been my signature fragrance for many years. Charlie has a Charlie White and a Charlie Red, but the blue package was the original Charlie, as far as I am aware.

Indeed, though not exactly. This fragrance harkens back to masculine classics that had a barbershop vibe with notes of lavender, anise and sandalwood coming through. Notice that the flacon is shaped like a barbershop pole; this is not by accident. Isn't that the place where men usually went not only for a haircut, but also a quality shave? Rive Gauche is really similar to the classic Azzaro pour Homme, though to me the former smells somewhat fresher than the latter.

It does not have a mint fragrance. It is a good product and I have been using it for 3 years.

It is a very pleasent light floral scent, reminiscent of violets, not overly sweet. We are very pleased with the shampoo.

It has a slight fruity fragrance. It seemed to disappear when you put it on, but maybe I got used to it.
