Have any of you experienced the scents offered in today's TSV?

I currently use only Fresh Cream, Falling in Love, and Pure Grace.  I like a light, mild scent.  The normal Amazing Grace is too much for me.  I have allergies and most perfumes seem too harsh for my taste.  Have any of you tried on one of the TSV choices?  If so, does any smell, mild, soft, and perhaps sweet?

Thanks in advance.

Bergamot is a much heavier scent than Amazing Grace. Lavender smells like fabric softener to me.

Based on your post, I would stick with the ones you currently like. I personally like regular Amazing Grace but my husband says it smells like a funeral home. Nice Smiley Happy  However, I do get many compliments on it.  Do not buy Amazing Grace Intense as that is not regular Amazing Grace - it's a completely different fragrance.

My second favorite when I am going to be around people and don't want to be offensive is Pure Grace. 

I did buy the AG Bergamot and it's ok but not my favorite.

Fresh Cream is too milky smelly. 

 

Good luck!

I love the Bergamot, dislike Jasmine. There are other threads here today on this topic for you to see.  I think orig AG is the lightest of all of them.

I purchased Amazing Grace years ago.  Many around me disliked it and said it was too strong.  I agreed and threw it away.  I should have known better since I'm not a fragrance girl.  It's fresh smelling soap for me.

Fragrance is so personal.  What one person loves another totally dislikes.  One may like it softer, one wants it stronger.  One loves florals and one finds it too floral. Reading the reviews helps a little but you have to know what camp you fall in to I suppose.  The only way to really know is to try it for yourself.  But most people don't like having to return supersize kits and pay for return shipping, unless you can exchange for another scent you like better.

 

Since there have been a lot of complaints about many of the Philosophy scents having such little scent since Coty took over (or maybe it's the scents on QVC?) I would guess that most of these will be on the softer side and not too strong.  But I could be wrong on that.

To this day, I get compliments on Amazing Grace.  I don't think it's too strong at all.

I've used and liked Baby Grace and Falling in Love, though I've haven't bought anything since it was sold.
