Cinnabar
eau de parfum
women
Since its introduction in 1978, Estee Lauder's Cinnabar has been spicing up the night lives of adventurous women. Its floral notes are enhanced by tones of spice, amber and incense. These scents combine to create a bold fragrance that is subtly sultry and ready for whatever the night has to offer. Cinnabar's fragrant elements of incense and spice complement its flowery notes. These scents mingle well under the low lights of the dance floor and are subtle enough to set the tone behind a romantic meal.

For Cinnabar

by Estee Lauder

I have been on a quest for years to find a replacement for original Opium. I have spent hundreds on scents that claimed to have similar profiles but didn’t come close. To add to the dissatisfaction, most lasted a couple hours or less after application. Then I finally tried Cinnabar. Wow, there will never be another original Opium, but this it definitely it’s first cousin. It isn’t for the faint hearted though. It’s rich, heavy, and mysterious. I have never been a light and flowery kind of girl. All that said, proceed with caution. This is a monster (in a good way). One small spray is all I ever need. Even with that small amount, you’ll be fragrant all day. Absolutely no need to reapply. My husband loves it on me. I couldn’t be happier.

I’ve loved Cinnabar for years!!! Had to have it every winter!!! Smells so great and a little lasts a long time. I hope it never goes away!!! And the body lotion is great as well!!!

When Cinnabar was first introduced, I fell in love with it. I was really pleased to see that you carry it here, I ordered a bottle and once I received it and tried it it brought back so many memories. Even my son said mom you said you were looking for your signature fragrance and that’s what you used to wear so get Cinnabar. To me, it smells exactly as I remember it. It lasts a long time as well, which is a plus these days with so many new fragrances smell good at first, and then in 30 minutes it’s gone. Thank you, Fragrancenet for carrying beautiful Cinnabar.

I’m so happy to see Cinnabar here at Fragrancenet! This is a fragrance I wore long ago and I haven’t seen it in ages. Of course I purchased it and was so happy when I received it. Right away, I sprayed it on my pulse points let it soften and dry and all the memories of Cinnabar came back. Even my son remembers as a child when I wore Cinnabar. He said Mon, that was your Signature scent back then. I couldn’t be happier! Thank you fragrancenet for carrying Cinnabar.

Breaks my heart that Estee Lauder ruined Cinnabar. This perfume was perfect and needed no change at all! Cinnabar was my signature scent for over 4 decades and now I have to try and find a new perfume to love. I am heartbroken.
