The Scent: Soft. Light. Warm. Sexy. Incredibly Woman. Elegant.

I love the scent of a wonderful fragrance. You know the kind of parfume (or cologne) that when a woman or man stands next to you are drawn to them and you ask yourself "What is that wonderful smell?" Shi for Women by Alfred Sung is that kind of scent.

I have allergies and find most perfumes and fragrances too strong for me. I am a huge fan of Nina Ricci's Deci-Dela which is a light scent. Using some of the keywords from the Amazon.com description of Deci-Dela, Amazon's "Customer's Who Bought this Item also Bought" section, and reviews of recommended scents I built a list of lighter scented parfumes. Shi for Women by Alfred Sung was on the list.

I wanted a small collection of four scents that were suitable for the different events in my life, didn't trigger my allergies upon application and during wear, and went with my body's chemistry so that I could carry the scent. I feel that a lot of people buy a scent blindly and end up with boxes of scents that smell great, may have smelled great on others but do not work for them. Buying a fragrance for yourself is an investment that if you take time to research and test will lead you to finding your signature scents. Every woman has one.

My local perfume store was more than happy to allow me to try the scents on my list via test strips. I explained my situation and they were able to give me feedback on my list and offer other suggestions. We wrote the names down of the scents I tested on each strip and type of scent it was. I fell in love with Shi for Women right away. I asked for spray on my wrist so I could see how the scent worked with my body's chemistry. I dabbed a bit on my neck, purchased a gift for a friend, and went on my way.

Four hours later the scent was still there worked well my chemistry. It gets lighter but not light enough that you don't know it is there. No sneezing. No watery eyes. No tighter throat. Just a wrist that I kept bringing back to my nose to smell over and over again and smile. I was a happy puppy.

I went online to order it via Amazon.com. My package arrived on time and in excellent condition. I tested my bottle and was happy that the scent matched the sample I tested.
I adore the simple chic bottle design that I think fits the scent.

I recommend Shi for Women by Alfred Sung because this is the kind of scent as woman you will want to wear for yourself not just for the man in your life. It will make you feel sexy and confident. It will make you smile because the scent smells great.

I feel that this scent is great for casual to day time wear. I think it is also a great scent for an intimate evening home alone for two.

I bought this perfume to replace my mom's empty bottle of Shi. I was worried that this fragrance would differ from the original because it was coming from Amazon. However, the fragrance was spot on. Bravo Amazon! I would order a fragrance from them again.

You know how sometimes you fall in love with a fragrance at first sniff and buy it on the spot then after wearing it for a week or two you suddenly find that you don't like it after all and wonder what were you thinking when you bought it? I've experienced this a couple of times with some other designer fragrances. However, the opposite happened with Shi by Alfred Sung. I bought it at a discount store recently because I already own Sung by Alfred Sung and the price on Shi was so low I figured if I did not like it at least I didn't spend a small fortune (which seems to be the norm with designer fragrances lately). Well, I tried it as soon as I got home and thought it was just OK - soft, light good for casual or everyday. This fragrance grew on me over a week and I returned to that discount store and bought a second bottle. It is a light floral with soft fruity notes and very feminine and classy. This is my new favorite and now I want to try the other Alfred Sung fragrances.

haven't been able to find this at the stores i normally purchase from... thank you!

This is a great fragrance! It is light, just a tad sweet. Not overpowering! I'm very sensitive to strong fragrances, but I can wear this one. I was very pleased!
