I received this lipstick (along with blush/brush, mascara & nail color) in a free "gift" package when I purchased a self-tanner last week. The color is lovely and goes well with my light complexion and the accompanying blush & nail color (I love the blush) but, unfortunately, it contains a rather nauseating perfumey smell and I can't wear it without apply lipgloss to combat the awful taste. I also tested its "all-day" claim and found that it does not live up to that claim. At least not on my dryish lips. It lasted (without lipgloss) for 3 hours before caking and I had blotted and layered and preapplied lipliner. I would not buy this product but will look for a similar shade in the other Lauder lipstick lines because the color is great. 1 point off for the smell and another for the caking.
