   For a 2003 release, Stella deserves more attention than it gets. The heart is the best part for me: Rose and Peony feel carefully balanced. Give it a little time and Rose with Peony comes forward — smooth and well done. After a few hours it becomes a soft skin scent with a lovely trail. Full-bottle worthy without a doubt.

   Stella McCartney knows how to compose, and Stella (2003) is proof. After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Rose with Peony, which is where the fragrance really shines. Give it a little time and Rose with Peony comes forward — smooth and well done. After a few hours it becomes a soft skin scent with a lovely trail. A solid addition for anyone who enjoys this style.

   I needed a full wearing before I made my mind up about Stella. Give it a little time and Rose with Peony comes forward — smooth and well done. The heart is the best part for me: Rose and Peony feel carefully balanced. It performs better in warmer weather — in the heat it opens up nicely. A very likeable composition that is easy to appreciate.

   I have owned Stella for a while now and my opinion has only gotten stronger. After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Rose with Peony, which is where the fragrance really shines. Give it a little time and Rose with Peony comes forward — smooth and well done. The drydown lingers pleasantly, and I do not need to reapply at lunch. I enjoy it when I wear it, yet I rarely think of reaching for it.

   I’ve been wearing Stella on and off for a few weeks now (2003). After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Rose with Peony, which is where the fragrance really shines. The heart is the best part for me: Rose and Peony feel carefully balanced. Performance is consistent: comfortable sillage and several hours of wear on my skin. A very likeable composition that is easy to appreciate.

   Picked up a sample of Stella after reading the community buzz (2003). The heart is the best part for me: Rose and Peony feel carefully balanced. After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Rose with Peony, which is where the fragrance really shines. After a few hours it becomes a soft skin scent with a lovely trail. Well done — recommended if the notes appeal to you.

   A decant of Stella sat in my box for weeks before I finally wore it. After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Rose with Peony, which is where the fragrance really shines. Give it a little time and Rose with Peony comes forward — smooth and well done. It performs better in warmer weather — in the heat it opens up nicely. I can see this getting a lot of wear in my collection.

   My first Stella McCartney experience was this one, Stella (2003). After about twenty minutes the heart settles into Rose with Peony, which is where the fragrance really shines. The heart is the best part for me: Rose and Peony feel carefully balanced. It projects politely for a couple of hours, then stays close and cosy. Well done — recommended if the notes appeal to you.
