Nicely balanced fruity floral
This fragrance is a little similar to the original Pleasures, however it is a tad fruitier and not as soapy.
Opening with lively fruits and citrus, Pleasures Bloom is perfect for those hot Summer days. Pretty and feminine, this fragrance is relatively strong like most Estee Lauder scents are.
Despite my respect for the brand, Estee Lauder's scents have something about them that grates on my nerves. Although I find most of their fragrances pleasant enough, they smell 'plasticky' to me. Pleasures Bloom is guilty of this strange synthetic note that allows me detect an Estee Lauder scent from miles away.
Disregarding my dislike of the way in which Estee Lauder's fragrances are constructed, this is a very pleasant balance of fruits and flowers. In terms of packaging, I've always liked the bottle design for the Pleasures bottles, however the strange fabric flower around the neck of the bottle is just odd and looks cheaply made.
My guess is that this fragrance is intended to appeal to a younger generation as well as the established Pleasures fans. In my opinion, Pleasures Bloom caters to both.
The lasting power and the sillage are both excellent, as can be expected from this brand. If you had no problems with the way Pleasures smelt, you may possibly enjoy this newer, fruitier creation.
