Is there any configuration of amazing grace that still has the original scent or the closest to what it used to be? I used to love it so much and I miss it. To me the current spray fragrance is so different I cant even use it~ I have the shampoo which is very similar to the original scent but it is much milder. What do you think? shower gel? body emulsion? anything that still smells like the original amazing grace?

For me it would be the 3 in 1 (shampoo, bath & shower gel). I agree the spray fragrance isn't what it used to be.

For me, it's the firming body emulsion, hands down. The rest of their products are a waste of money. IMO, of course. For the money it costs, ya sure don't get a long lasting product anymore.

You are looking at someone who buys Philosophy Amazing Grace like crazy, I mean like crazy.....always hoping I'll find some that lasts....every cream, shampoo, lotion, perfume, you name it.
All of the bottles sit on the kitchen counter. I pick one up right before I leave the house and bathe in it...I mean I put so much on I think....I'm going to choak to death....Ha!
Then by the time I walk down the steps to my garage (in the house even)....I can no longer smell anything....I ask my friend when we meet up, "Can you smell the AG?" She always laughs and says, "Annabelle, you ask me that all of the time and the answer is 'no'"!
I get back in my car and I can't smell it. I put on the clothes I had just bathed in a few days ago and no smell at all. Sounds crazy? No! We all know you can often smell the fragrance when you wore the clothes once before....
Well, it used to be that way. I used to have people ask me what I was wearing. I used to give people AG lotions, shampoos, perfume, etc. Now it's never even noticed....I can't smell it either.
So, good luck. You know I just bought something from QVC where the person said it would keep the fragrance (whatever you used) on the top of the skin and not be absorbed....
Did it work? No not at all. Not for AG anyway. I am beginning to think I just need to go back to Channel No. 5 like I used to wear all of the time. When my husband died, I stopped wearing it because that was the smell he loved so much.
I just can't quite wear it yet, but I'm getting there. It's more expensive but ..... well, it lasts and isn't watered down like Amazing Grace. These people should write an add on how to destroy a perfume smell....something like that...how sad.

Philosophy, please let me know why you changed Amazing Grace. Why when you had such a winner. I told everyone, I got compliments always. Now I just hate the smell. And I mean smell. I know you can change it back.
What a sad thing that has happened.
Need an answer.
Qvc. . Let me know

I just started purchasing AG and absolutely love it! I have the spritz and body creme and feel like the scent lasts a very long time, especially the creme. I can smell it on my clothes all day and my skin as well. I am super happy with it.....

I gave up on philosophy; I went to Bulk apothocary dot com. they have amazing grace in a fragrant oil that smells like the old formula. I add it to an uncented base oil base lotion or even a base body butter or even a base body wash. It's nice and has decent staying power.
It last a lot longer than this junk that philosophy is selling now. They have Baby grace too but the amazing Grace is spot on. I will continue to use this until Coty wises up and gives the customers what theyre asking for.

Thanks gail! I came over to see if anyone else thought Amazing Grace was not the same as it used to be and also if I was imagining how fast it was fading. I see I am not alone.
I'm going to try the site you recommended because I am so disappointed in what is being sold now after the Coty buyout.
Thanks for the recommendation.

gail415 -- that site is wonderful. I just received the amazing grace and it is so much like the original. I also ordered pink sugar and it is spot on. Thank you so much for the recommendation.

You having me looking Lol. What size did you buy? Does it come by mail or Ups, just curious. I'm thinking of buying it to mix with my CeraVe lotion. I absolutely love amazing grace. I wonder how much it takes to hold the smell.
