I think it smells unisex. I know a couple of men that wear it. But also, an important thing to remember is that colognes and perfumes work with body chemistry. What smells good on one person might not smell so hot on another.

My girlfriend bought some at the O2. It is very overpowering and as alot have said is probably suited more to the older lady. It does smell more like something my mother would wear rather than someone in their twenties. So it has been filed under "collectibles/mememorabilia" rather than perfume to wear on a saturday night out.

I happen to like it - its a little heavier and sweeter than my normal channel 19 - but i do like. A few people have also commented on it and how it smells good. 'its because it is made with Prince's tears' i say - as they hurridly run away looking a little afraid

Does anyone else find themselves singing - dontcha wanna come 3121.... - when they apply it - It has become a bit of a ritual in my house now hehe

This made me spit my coffee with laughter - but wondering how you know what Big Foots dick smells like

I was totally prepared to hate 3121 -- and had no intention of buying it. (I'd heard the Get Wild horror stories.)

But I went to Macy's around the first of July and they had a tester, so I gave it a "test spritz." Imagine my chagrin to find that it actually smelled good. I've worn it almost exclusively since then -- and gotten a ton of compliments on it.

It is gorgeous but defo an older ladies scent ( I mix mine with Ralf Laurens Light blue) to lift it.

which works a treat as I get tons of compliments from members of the general public when do wear my 'mix'

I'm not good at describing smells, it's heavy, and sort of violetty. A bit of 'masculine' smell mixed with joss stick, daisies and parma violets? It made me think of the first wealthy woman shown in Under a Cherry Moon.

Goodness, that's so unhelpful of me!

ladycat said:

No actually that is quite a good description - makes me feel old now for liking it even though i am in my 30s - but to my defence it is heavier than my normal scent - it must be the 'prince tears' - like phoenix tears they are magical

No, it 's not available outside the US at this time.

I don't think scents are inherently "young" or "old." It's all a matter of personal preference -- and what you're used to wearing.

I mean...I wore Rive Gauche and Opium as a teenager. Both of those scents could be described as "old" -- ie, deeper and more sophisticated. Meanwhile, my high school classmates were wearing Charlie and Jontue ("Sensual...but not to far from innocence.")

Just wear what you like.

That sounds like something that I would do. I'm constantly singing Prince songs, it seems.

I received my 3121 gift set today. Ordered it last Thursday , arrived Wednesday.
I think it's unusual and unique. Since I've travelled in the past, I have alot of perfumes I've purchased through duty-free at airports, including scents not available in the States.
I'm glad I was able to get this. I love it.
My usual perfumes are: Chanel #5, "La Nuit" Paco Rabanne, "Je Reviens" Worth.
