Blossom Love

I Love this fragrance. However, I didn't like it that much at first. But all I got were compliments. Even when I couldn't smell it myself. I stopped wearing it for a while. A few months. I had just got out of the shower and was lightly sprayed with the lightweight Argan oil. I went to my closet looking for a particular garment and saw the perfume. I took it out and gently inverted he bottle a couple of times (twice). I sprayed it liberally. In a couple minutes it was absolutely beautiful. For me the rose liquor, cherry blossom, and suede with a light amaretto and rose scent. Is exactly what this smells like to me. I never thought about a suede note be pleasant. But as a third note of the top three main notes that you smell throughout the main essence of the perfume. It's absolutely beautiful and so soft. Especially under the Rose liquor, cherry 🌸 blossom, the suede then the mixture of amaretto and rose. I don't smell much of anything else. Except maybe a bit of Heliotrope. Which smells like cherry, amaretto a bit of vanilla and a floral. Which are already the main smelling notes of this perfume. So perhaps the bit of Heliotrope is to just made to really emphasize and blend the previous notes. Interestingly enough, for a perfume listed as a floral. This would definitely be great in the winter months. I would definitely recommend letting this macerate "sit" for a while before wearing it. It definitely works best on clean skin, that's been dried and lightly moisturized. It really clings to fabrics. I sprayed a bit on a shaw I just washed and hung outside to dry and air out. I sprayed it the next day. Placed it on a hanger in the closet. When I went to wear it the fragrance was there. It was obvious and hung in there for a while. If you're looking for something that smells very close to this. But don't want to use your car payment to pay for it. There's a perfume that is not listed on this database. It's DUA: Lovely Blossom 🌸 Again, let it sit for a month or two. The difference in letting the scent mancerate is remarkable. Makes an enormous difference.

I love a sleeper scent... the kind you almost overlook at first, only for it to circle back and completely steal your attention when you least expect it. At first spray, this felt like a whisper. Barely there. Just a faint, slightly dusty rose that had me completely unimpressed. I actually wrote it off after getting a sample from LS. Forgotten. Dismissed. Practically exiled. To be fair, Amouage does mention on their website that this one benefits from a little maceration time... and honestly, that tracks. Because what showed up later felt like an entirely different fragrance. Then curiosity nudged me. I had a decant of Guidance 46 and thought, maybe just maybe, Blossom Love might lean more into that rose lane. What happened instead? An absolute bloom burst. 🌸 Out of nowhere, it unfurled into this radiant cherry blossom cloud with the softest rose and vanilla woven through it. Not heavy. Not powdery. Just airy, creamy, and beautifully blended. I swear I could see it... fluffy pink clouds drifting across a pale blue sky. And just like that, obsession. This is not mature in the traditional sense. It is playful, feminine, a little dreamy, and completely captivating without trying too hard. The kind of scent that makes you lean in closer without realizing it. And now here is the part that makes it feel almost mythical... there is a rumor this might be discontinued. 😭 So yes... this just went from nice surprise to cherish this bottle like it is the last petal on earth. Absolutely bottle worthy. No hesitation.

I purchased a sample of this fragrance and was in love at first sniff. Like all great Amouage fragrances it is well blended and wearing it is an experience of a dance of one note opening and receding for hours until it finally settles. Living up to this fragrance house's reputation--this is not a fragrance for someone who prefers the fruity patchouli sugar bombs you find at the fragrance counter. It can be polarizing and depending on your skin chemistry it may not work for you. However, if you love the older fragrances from this house, Blossom Love will seem familiar as it has that undefinable but unique fingerprint in all the great Amouage fragrances. Also it is definitely a beastmode fragrance and one spray to the wrist touched to the other lasted well over 24 hrs on me. As for notes that I can pick out--I can only recognize the rose and amaretto. These notes are blended with notes that remind me of white florals, creamy vanilla/nutmeg and a crisp citrus. It is unique and strong. However, the longer you wear it the softer it becomes but it never fades on me and I have received compliments on it from friends and family after having applied it the day before! This is definitely a try before you buy, as are all Amouage fragrances. But I definitely recommend you try. This one is a gem! EDITED TO ADD: OMG I love fragrantica! Thrilled to discover Al Haramain Junoon Rose. Perfect dupe for Blossom Love--AH Junoon Rose is a bit more screechy than Blossom Love but I actually like it.

Cherry blossom perfumes are usually nice to my nose, but not especially exciting. Love Blossom is different. It's the deepened, sexy version of cherry blossoms! From time to time I read that cherry blossoms allegedly don't have a scent, but I know some of them do. Trust me, I live right around the corner from a street full of flowering cherry trees. In this perfume, the sweet, soft nature of cherry blossom petals is complimented by more robust and intense notes like rose, vanilla, amber and tonka. Surprisingly the enhance the cherry blossoms instead of overpowering them. The main feature of Love Blossom is its boozy, syrupy texture. The official notes on the Amouage website list "cherry blossom nectar" and "rose liqueur" as the top notes, and I think this describes the way the florals are done here perfectly. The amaretto accord with its almond-like scent adds another layer of lush, boozy gourmand goodness, and also a hint of bittersweet sharpness to cut through the vanilla and flowers. In the base a hint of powdery tonka provides some dimension, luckily without turning the scent dry. This is innocent and romantic at first glance, but passionate and a little mysterious when you look closer. Sweet and warm, but not naive or boring. Even though floral gourmands are nothing new, I never smelled something quite like this before. Needless to say, I love it and need it.

Blossom Love lives up to its name; as it evolves, it takes us from a pure and innocent love to a passionate, almost carnal love. It is first of all a very pretty floral/fruity perfume whose scents seem “fuzzy”; I would have vaguely bet on red fruits but the pyramid tells me otherwise. It is perhaps the cherry blossom which brings this fruity smell which is so particular, so pleasant and at the same time indefinable. Then the rose smell grows in strength. The scent becomes sweet but not too much, a little powdery too. A certain sensuality begins to emerge; the amaretto brings a slightly liquorous side and the suede, very soft, non-invasive, brings a slight animal side, also “fuzzy”. The result is a warm, intense, deep, sensual and seductive floral/fruity scent that is nonetheless romantic. The innocence that slides gently towards desire or love and its waltz of emotions. Unlike some, I don't find it so common; it is much less sweet, much more balanced and of better quality than what we find in classic perfumeries. Much more elegant too. And this duality between romanticism and sensuality enchants me. The staying power and sillage are exceptional (sprayed at 1 a.m. during a night trip, at 4 p.m. the smell was still present in the crook of my arm). Too bad the price is so exorbitant, thus transforming my enthusiasm into resignation...
