James Bond 007 for Women II
by Eon Productions
James Bond 007 for Women II is a bright, sparkling fruity-gourmand fragrance with a light, fresh profile that evokes a playful, champagne-infused femininity. It opens with a crisp blend of champagne, raspberry, and pink pepper, leading into a sweet floral heart dominated by blackberry, gardenia, and a hint of freesia — notes that create a softly romantic, effervescent vibe. The base settles into a creamy, vanilla-sandalwood warmth with subtle hints of cedar, leather, and musk, giving it a soft sultry depth that lingers subtly. It performs best as a daytime wear, especially mild summer days or mild autumn mornings. While the initial burst is luminous and inviting, longevity is modest — most agree it lasts only a few hours — and sillage remains moderate to intimate. The scent leans sweet and fruity, with vanilla and blackberry taking center stage, but leather and woody notes are faint and not noticeable to many users.
Pros
- +The fragrance is exceptionally well-suited for casual or spring/summer daytime wear
- +It is affordable and considered good value by most
- +It is fresh, light, and non-aggressive, making it ideal for sensitive environments or first-time gourmand users
Cons
