Guerlain's answer to Bvlgari
This is a near dupe of Bvlgari 's Green tea ( I know I'm not giving it the formal French name but whatever) . I had both at one time and traded the Bvlgari away as they were so similar. AA CB is just a bit more floral especially at the top notes. Still as it's fraternal twin it is fine as a unisex scent (though some guys may be put off by the bottle and florally name). The scent opens with a lemony floral,and bridges to a warm tea scent peach just seems to warm rather than fruitify this scent. Almond gives it a creamy base . Not roasted -think more like almond milk,or almond butter.

Scent
Not enough apple
I like the apple pear bergamot top notes ,unfortunately they don't last for more than a few minutes on me then the apple blends in to the background with the musk and florals taking center stage. So yeah, sort of a apple shampoo scent. Nice but not love,passing my set to Mamamia ,minus a reference 1 ml.
For those that also like the apple in this I recommend EA Pretty or Body Fantasies Apple Fantasy.

Meh...
Burberry Weekend (women's)just didn't wow me at all. It isn't terrible by any means (that distinction belongs to the male version) I simply find it to be Dull. On me it smelled sort of hay-like ,until I realized later that it smelled just like the oat and honey scent bubble bath my Dad uses which I'm pretty sure that sells for $3-6 for a huge jug. For now I think I'll leave this one for others ,may retry it later.

Peach syrup
This didn't work on me. Far ,far too much canned peaches in heavy syrup for any other note to shine out except for the Marshmallow. That came through,with a bit of clean laundry musk. This was so much NOT to my taste that I returned this trial size the very next day.
