Summertime - Fragrance for Women - 55ml Parfum de Toilette, made by Milton-Lloyd

I recently purchased a Milton Lloyd aftershave for my hubby (the silver one) it’s really nice so I thought I’d try this one on me. I love soft florally perfumes with a good vanilla powdery base, this is a soft floral with a predominant vanilla scent but it’s still fairly subtle. It’s been said here by many it smells very similar to V & R’s Flowerbomb, I never bought a bottle but I do remember it was lovely and similar though longer lasting than this one, but this is a lighter toilette and it’s only a fiver, so it’s a lovely everyday scent you can afford to wear and refresh as you want. If you like light floral perfumes with a soft sweet vanilla base than you will like this too. It doesn’t start too sharp with alcohol as some do, it starts fresh then dries down to a more powdery floral. I have also recently purchased the Milton Lloyd’s Summer Flowers to compare, it’s a much sharper stronger floral that actually hurts my nose (like fresh lillies hurt do), this Summertime fragrance is much softer. Based on this experience I’m definitely going to try out some of the other ML fragrances.

I read reviews and took into account the one that said it had a heavy vanilla time etc but decided to order anyway. I love vanilla, and I guess if you can't tell the difference between musk's it might seem it's similar to vanilla, but there isn't any vanilla in this I'm sure (it's a complicated musk undertone) but it's too notes are incredibly floral. It's absolutely beautiful. At first when I sprayed it I wasn't keen but once I let it rest on my skin I was hooked. I love it. I sprayed it on a few items and found after the initial smell it was just beautiful but different. You have to let perfume sit and work with your oils and sometimes, a perfume that smells nice in the bottle might smell rancid on you, due to your skin pH/oil composition. My skin reaction is to make sweet smelling things more sweet and they become sickly and horrible so I avoid fruity types and sometimes floral, but this one seems to work really well with me. I also bought stars, which is an alien remake and while I read reviews saying it smelled like granny - it put me off trying it before this one. After this one I ordered it right away just to test it (after all, if it's crap, it's a room spray right?) And I can say again, I'm not disappointed. It's a lot more complex in its notes and musk heavy, but that's the keystone of that brand and I've always bought angel. I'd say, buy it. It's £5 and you'll either love it to bits like I do (try not to compare it to big brands, accept it for its own scent, hard to when the nose is so similar but still). I have around 40+ bottles of expensive perfume, so just trust me on this one. It doesn't smell cheap - just give it 5 minutes on your skin before you judge the smell. I'm looking forward to checking out the other copies, but again, they're worth their own review - not in comparison to others (even though they are essentially very good replicas). Hopefully this helps x

I regularly wear Milton-Lloyd's Victor No. 9 as an EDT at work and having read some of the reviews of Summertime here on Amazon decided on a whim to purchase a bottle for my wife. Smells good to me and my better half also likes it too. Interestingly enough, while out and about one night having a drink, one of the bar staff commented how nice my wife smelled and asked if she was wearing Flowerbomb :-) It could last longer to be honest as it seems to die down a bit too quickly in my opinion but at this price you easily afford to top it up.

Very nice, got as a gift, recipient was pleased. It has a pleasant scent.

Smells just like the real thing. Lasts ages on clothes (I can still smell it the next day) but not very long on skin.

Smells beautiful, very happy

I have the real thing of this perfume, very expensive so as I love so many of Milton Lloyd range I thought to try this. It blew me away, it's feminine beautiful smell that lasts for hours even longer than my flowerbomb perfume and this isn't perfume but is as long lasting as the perfume. The price is amazing and a little goes a long way. I get compliments all the time and more so than I do with my original one. I do however have to mention that this is slightly different from the original but in my opinion I love this one more.

it does not smell nice, smells like its old

Had me twijfels zou ik het bestellen ben blij dat ik het heb gedaan heeeeeerlijke geur.

Huele muy bien
