I personally have never used it or smelt it. I am pregnant right now so scents are not my thing. But I did google it and this is what I found. Fairy Dust has a very powdery floral quality to it. Initially I smelled hyacinth and gardenia. The scent was nice, flowery and something I'd associate with when thinking of fairies. The perfume contains other notes; so it claims (prosecco accord, pink peony, orange blossom, gardenia, peach nectar, water Lilly, patchouli, cashmere musk and vanilla cream), but in all sincerity all I get from it is a quick powerful dash of gardenia and hyacinth.
