Happy Heart is the perfect scent for me. Even when I put on more than I planned, it's still isn't overwhelming. It's a very pleasant fragrance that's just right! Very refreshing scent.

its a lovely light refreshing perfume. lovely for daywear!

I have been an Aromatics fan for years, but think this perfume just ideal for the day time......you can save your aromatics for your evenings!!!!

I love Happy. It is exceptable to wear at work, because it is so light, and great to wear when you don't want a heavy fragrance. I highly recommend it!

This is the only perfume my fiance really loves to smell, and contrary to another person's review, it lasts longer than many perfumes of the same quality and price. Its subtle, citrus nuances make it ideal for cuddling and nibbling, especially since it won't overpower or leave any taste residue.

Delightful!

I have always loved happy, but I love my happy heart! I wear it 99% of the time. My guy loves the smell too...and I often get comments that it smells wonderful. Not too strong, just enough. :) I'd recommend this perfume to everyone, young and old.

I love, absolutely love this scent! It smells fresh, sweet, and dewy, like all Clinique scents. Don't miss this one if you're looking for a light but long-lasting scent. It's also the kind of scent you can wear on any occasion--casual or formal, work or play.

I may be the only woman alive who doesn't like Happy, but I LOVE Heart! It's a perfect fragrance, not too strong but not too light. It's very feminine.

Someone with exquisite taste gave me Happy To Be by Clinique for Women Eau de Parfum Spray 1.7 oz. What a lovely gift! This person could not have pleased me more!

The fragrance notes are Pear Natureprint, Hibiscus Flower, Bulgarian Rose, Cocoa Butter, Sandalwood and Sesame. It is slightly sweet, piercing, youthful, and alluring.

I highly recommend this marvelous fragrance.

The other person who reviewed "Happy" by Clinique is incorrect. There is no musk undertone in this perfume. I know because my body chemistry brings out the musky undertones in any fragrance whatsoever, regardless of if it maybe perfume, body spray, lotions, whatever. Instead this fragrance is light and flowery with citrus undertones. Additionally, the scent lasts all evening. I can put on a light spray at the beginning of the evening, go to a smoky club with a punk rock band, drink, get in a fight, have a roll in the hay and still smell like Happy in the morning!

I purchased Happy based on reviews of it here and from fragrance sites. I've been using Estee Lauder's Pleasures on and off since they first introduced it, alternating with Philosophy Pure Grace and Amazing Grace, so my comparison is mainly between those and Happy.

Happy is described a floral, citrusy scent, which is not exactly the way it smells on me. I detected more of a synthetic sweetness to it, along with an almost grapefruit scent rather than the more rounded and definitely floral Pleasures and clean, fresh floral and powdery Philosophy fragrances. I had a difficult time distinguishing the floral and citrus notes separately; from the time I put it on to several hours later and sniff tests from a friend, the fragrance never changed or warmed up enough to smell any differently than it did straight out of the bottle. I also have dry skin and it's winter, and both could be the cause of the single-note results.

Using the parfum spray alone and not layered with other related products like lotion, the fragrance was noticeable for about six hours on me based on my friend's nose; mine didn't detect it past an hour, which I expected since I only used a light application. This is what I'd consider a day fragrance, it's a little sharp for my taste of perfumes for evening.

Buying perfume based on others' recommendations is always a shot in the dark because what's the best scent on earth to one person is a horrible, sneeze-generating odor to another. I didn't love Happy, but I don't necessarily consider it a lost cause. I'm going to try it again in the summer when my skin isn't as dry and cold.

If you have the chance, I would recommend trying out Happy from someone else or the beauty counter first to get a more accurate sense of what it'll smell like on you.
