I was thinking of buying this as a gift but have to buy online. Therefore I can't sample the scent.

Could you guys please give me your opinions on it before I commit to purchase?

Sniff underneath an incontinent ladytramp's pishflaps. Then dip your nose in her arse. It's like that but with more lavander.

Adore Prince, but dont care too much for the 3121 scent.

Not have a specific smell 4 me. It seems that it´s based on citrus., somewhat acid, a flower may be; I think "Violetas" or "Pensamientos" that I call in my language

DON'T BUY IT! That crap stinks. It starts off as being a nice floral smell but then it morphs into this nasty smell. To me, it smells like saliva. With that said, it doesn't smell as horrendous as "Get Wild" I have no idea what that stench was. YUCK!

Thanks for the advice guys... Holly is kindly gonna send me a sample of the fragrance so I can decide myself although warns me that it's "different"

Can a high profile fragrance really be so bad? I'll have to wait until I get the sampler but I'm sooooo glad I asked on here before purchasing.

Thanks to everyone!

If the recipient is a Prince fan/collector,he/she will appreciate having the fragrance. I do.

I've always wondered why his incense smells better than any of his perfumes?



But yeah, 3121 doesn't smell all that pleasant.

Please let us know what you thought of 3121 after you smell it for yourself!

Everyone says I smell nice when I use it.

Me too, but they say scent changes on the wearer so maybe it's better actually on than straight from the bottle. I dunno

you can get a small bottle at Target for 19.99

no too expensive for a test run....

or Macys might, if you are lucky, have some samples...just ask

Ya, let us know what YOU think!

If the person you're going to buy it for already has allergies, I wouldn't recommend it.
It has a very strong smell for a few minutes, and then it's barely there.

It's not bad scent..


for a grandmom. No really.

It was horrible to me. Get Wild was even worse, but 3121 was pretty bad.

I like the scent, very nice.

It's a strong fragrance. It has a distinctive scent that will definitely remind u of Prince but 2 strong 4 me.

I'll eventually buy it...Purfume is a luxury.

It smells fine on me (or so I'm told! )

Some hilarious replies to my post, thanks guys

Well I shall wait for my sample to arrive from the kindly orger who is sending it. I can't try it out in Macys or Target as I live in the UK, I don't know of any stores that stock it over here apart from online stores but I can't smell it online... maybe a good thing? I shall see and tell you my thoughts on it.

Well the sample arrived today, thanks Holly... for saving me some money

Oh dear, that is honestly the worst perfume I ever smelled. It's like a cross between the smell of grandmothers and toilet freshener. My eyes started to water as soon as the "scent" hit me. I won't be buying her this stuff as a gift, looks like its chocolates AGAIN

After the Minneapolis 7/7/7 Prince concert, everyone was given a free bottle of 3121 as we walked out the door. Unfortunately, about 5000+ ladies immediately opened up the packages and started spraying themselves down with the perfume. Those of us in the "cheap" seats had to wade through that fowl, ozone-depleting purple fog. I never want to smell that again.

They have 3 bottles at my local Target for $19.99

Sniff the inside of your toilet. Exact same scent. If you could bottle that, you'd save your money.

When it comes to 3121 the opinions are seriously devided. Whenever I wear it there are people who really like it and ask me what I'm wearing and where I bought it and then there are those that almost have an allergic reaction and take a step back. Even though I use it sparingly it is pretty strong and can give you a headache if you use too much of it, and to me it doesn't smell very feminine. I think it's not supposed to smell very feminine, since it's meant for both male and female.
It's definitely not my favourite perfume and I will not buy it again.
Sorry, Prince!
