Sui Love

I have been wearing this for a couple of years now because the first time I opened it it smelled like a when I was a little kid with coppertone suntan lotion on, the Christmas tree (pinus radiata in NZ) in the lounge after it has been up for about a week, cookies fresh out of the oven. Very sweet and slightly tangy too. I adore it, and every single time I spray it I am back there, 10 yers old, in front of the tree, hot morning, inhaling deeply! The body lotion is, if anything, even better. Don't seem to be able to buy it in NZ any more.

I barely have any pink fragrances, because pink fruity florals are my least favourite genre in perfumery. Having said that, I'm very fond of Anna Sui Love. It' s such a happy, beautiful thing! It's not your usual pink scent, and its' sweetness is not the cloying sugary type, but reminicent of the 1990's Escada scents. It's a delicious sweet & tart fruit cocktail, but it also maintains an aura of airy lightness. This reminds me of my life in London in the early 2000's, living in a house full of Italians and partying every weekend.

So I'm exceptional. I don't know why most ppl here don't like it. After I got 3 samples from internet, I decided to buy EDP one. I don't feel any regret up till now. To me I like it so MUCH. It's really suits sweet girls. I always wear when I wear a skit. And it's long lasting.I used to grab a dress from the basket to wash and I found that it still had Sui Love smell.

Sadly discontinued. Great summer fragrance for a teenager, not a big fruity floral fan, but this reminds me of teenage summers. I can smell coconut even though it's not listed. Sadly sillage wasn't great, but loved the scent so much I could happily keep reapplying this one.

I always have a bottle of this, have been wearing it for the last 10 years. It's sweet, juicy yet floral and reminds me of the start of Spring :) One of my all time favourites...but then again, I've never come across an Anna Sui fragrance I haven't either loved or liked.

I had this fragrance bought for me when I was 17 and my driving instructor complimented me on how nice I smelt haha. It smells oriental but fruity at the same time. Very nice.

This has to be my top favourite (and I have many favourites) - unortunately, it is no longer being made, so I try to get bottles on ebay when I can ...

I'm trying to save the last few dregs of this! My all time favourite - light and long lasting and discontinued!

I'm sorry but D&G Devotion is nothing like Anna Sui Love. I really don't get the comparison.

Hope to find similar scent ! Sweet, juicy, lovely.

It's the first and only Anna sui perfume I've ever tried.I saw a mini bottle of it in a local perfume shop.it was very cheap and I wanted it's cute,girly butterfly so I bought it just for it's bottle.I thought it's scent must have turn.it's production date seems to be 2011 as it's written on it's bottle and it was stored in bad condition but when I applied a little on my hand,I could see that it's juice isn't damaged by time at all First whiff is mouth watering juicy fruits.I can easily detect passionfruit and orange and I like what I smell.it's playful,tart and sweet,fresh and girly.a happy,bright and fresh scent.but juicyness goes away as florals kick in and it becomes warmer and sweeter.I like it in this stage even more.I can smell sweet,creamy flowers blended with vanilla with a fruity undertone(in this stage,passionfruit smells like apricot or peach sometimes).it's a very youthful floral scent thanks to it's sweetness and fruity notes.I can mostly feel orange flower and rose,not much of tuberose,florals aren't heavy or mature and this scent perfectly suits a teenager as well as someone in her early twenties It becomes much softer as it dries down,musk shows up and helps vanilla to create a soft,powdery scent as if there's a blast of baby powder mixed up with a sweet floralfruity.unlike it's almost loud,attention seeking opening and middle notes,it's soft and close to skin in it's drydown(musk,vanilla,orange flower and rose create this soft powdery veil) All in all I like it.it's a young,happy and lovely summer daytime perfume.I'd be happy if I had a big size bottle of it instead of my mini and I'm sure that I would choose it as my signature if I had it ten years ago

I think this was my first ever perfume...and yet I threw it away during a cleanup. I threw away both Sui Love and Sui Dreams because I had them for a long time and they were dusty and old looking. Now looking back they both were fine neither of them went off the bottles were just dusty (I don't know why I kept my Dior 1947 but not those two). I guess I was thinking about which bottles were easier to clean. Before I just had them cos I liked to wear fragrance occasionally. Now, in my mid 20s, I am like really really into fragrances I regret throwing them away esp for the memories. I miss Sui Love more than Sui Dreams I don't know why...maybe cos I know now it's my first and the colour at the time when I threw it away was the normal colour (when I thought it was yellow cos it's off but it's not). I remembered I begged my dad to buy it for me. When I first saw the bottle and smelt it and thought it was such a unique scent. Sweet and exotic. I just remember it being my FIRST EVER fragrance and Sui Dreams was a purchase after Sui Love. I can buy Sui Dreams for a cheap price but should I buy it back? I don't know. All I know is that I am thinking to buy a new Sui Love from eBay even if it costs a lot (and I have other perfumes on my wishlist too)...I am debating especially I only just became unemployed recently.

I bought a bottle of this purely for old times sake. Its near impossible to find now but I was lucky enough to bag a new 75ml bottle for £30 on eBay. I'm 28 now but I first bought this when I was 16 and it stayed with me through until my early twenties and while never being my no1 go-to scent it definitely holds some wonderful memories! Anna Sui Love is a bright, juicy, citrusy fusion - its mouth watering without being overly fruity, sweet but not in the sugary sense. Its also pretty unique I have to say, I can't think of anything remotely similar. At 28, I feel like I have slightly outgrown it but you can't resist this one when the sun is shining, I'm taking it on holiday with me this year :) If you can find a bottle, buy it - this one is almost extinct. Sunshine in a bottle.

Tried it after my bath on freshly washed skin. The opening actually made me salivate! Yummy tart passion-fuit, thick with pulp and nectar. I detected s.thing that reminded me of figs (perhaps the nutmeg mixed witgh the fruit). The heart becomes a heavier floral as s.o. below mentionned.A vanilla-sugar-coated rose blooms quickly (but unfortunately... a rose is a rose...) and dies as fast. A sweet , slightly powdery drydown stays close to the skin like cream. (on me anyways.) A pretty scent that i would greatly enjoy in summer!

Wearing it on a hot spring day brings out the fruity tones of the composition. Passionfruit, orange with violets in the heart, with orange flower showing up after an hour. Then it has a shade of vanilla and nutmeg mixed with musk in the base. It is rather calm , but attractive and girly at the same time. I think it has more presence during winter - then it is more vanillic and the fruits seem boozy.

I don't mind it, but I don't really like it either. I think the top notes smell best, but I don't think it smells very nice on me - however my flatmate thinks the opposite, she thinks it smells great on me. Didn't seem to last long, but it's quite a light, subtle one, so could've been that. Bought it blind for the bottle really.

I like this scent but I don't OMG love it. This is a light, floral scent, with some sweet notes that are verging on fruity, but aren't especially juicy. This is a dry, airy, sunshiney scent, but it's a bit too generic for me to buy it again. I enjoy wearing it, but there's lots of other perfumes that give this effect too.

I am very fond of Sui Love, I owned it several years ago when I first met my husband, and he surprised me with a bottle of it at Xmas time. I smell an almost peachy note with tropical flowers, I do not find it too sweet, just light and lovely- reminds me of hot nights and bare skin and flowers in my hair.

I've got this fragrance as a gift a long time ago. This was an easy grab and go with a youthful, warm fruity citrus scent. Unfortunately, it's already been discontinued.

Smells nice and sweet, and lasts about a good 3-5 hours on me. Its bearable if you dislike strong overpowering scents. For some reason the spray on mine is broken :((

I used to like this when I was a girl but I outgrew it. Smells very young and fresh, and a lot like peaches and oranges on me... Nothing special really.

I absolutely love this, floral but not overly so! Very sweet!

i love this perfume. good for spring and summer

Anna Sui SUI LOVE opens auspiciously, with an inviting resinous orange which somehow manages to be both fresh and gleamingly golden at the same time. From there, the fragrance becomes progressively thicker with the passage of time, until finally I am reminded of the jar of orange marmalade I purchased at the Montego Bag airport in an ill-conceived effort to spend my last few bills of Jamaican currency before returning home. It was old--an entire year past the printed expiration date! Brownish, thick, the texture of orange jello cubes that have sat out in the air at a buffet table for far too long. The scent of SUI LOVE at this stage becomes more and more cloying and, to be frank, rather annoying. The orange is no longer fresh, and the florals seem stale, like arrangements set out for decorations--perhaps at the same buffet table--and changed only once a week. On my skin, the drydown feels something like a thin layer of dark Karo corn syrup mixed with vanillin (not vanilla...) and wilted flowers. Needless to say, I won't be adding SUI LOVE to my collection. Désolée!

I first get a blast of floral and fruity. The passionate fruit is interesting, the mix of it with the apple and orange give it an almost peach scent. The floral is mostly rose, I don't really pick up on the lighter floral as the rose really dominates it. The nutmeg also comes in play but it doesn't seem like it fits well with the other notes, it kind of stands off on its own. It transitions into lightly powdery, with the fruit note carrying over but it turns sour and there's a synthetic overpowering sweet note (as if it's meant to counter the sour note). What I'm left with in the end is very powdery, sour, and way too sweet.

I owned this about 8 years ago, bought it on impulse because the fresh, fruity opening really appealed to me but ended up giving it away a week or two later because the florals and musk really came out after the opening and something about them seemed synthetic and gave me a headache. I'm guessing it was the tuberose because it's very rare that I can tolerate a perfume that containes tuberose.

This reminds me of exclamation for its quirkyness they are a weird mixture with a powdery dry down that is just so wrong but so right at the same time. I used to hate this bought it a few years ago unsniffed and it turned my stomach. How tastes change, i love it now and of course it is discontinued!! Errr.

this has got to be the grossest thing i have ever smelt. very unpleasant, did nothing for me but cause me to gag. i washed it off immediately and couldn't even get a friend to take it off my hands. straight to the trash. the bottle was cute but the repulsive smell....expected more from anna sui.

This was a strong sugary flower- headache. It came in the mail, I took one sniff from the bottle, dabbed a bit on my wrist, inhaled again-and went to the bathroom to wash it off. Then I reposted it on ebay, and someone else has it. I hope they like it.

The bottle is really nice... but the scent is to sweet for me. I liked it at first and then could not stand it on me. Why ? Passion fruit... I'm allergic to it ! Made one of my friend happy to get it ^^

Fresh, fruity opening with orange and jasmine the most detectable. It smells very spicy to me like white pepper after the drydown and makes me feel like sneezing.

I really didn't like the smell of this. I gave it a fair chance but it's not for me. It smell a little like body odor, I'm not sure which note it is

I wanted to test Sui Love years ago, but never found a tester. Last week I managed to stumble upon it in a discount store and quickly took to spraying it on my wrist and a piece of card. First things first, Sui Love is not as fruity as I thought it would be. It's actually quite a clean smelling floral with subtle orange and passionfruit accords. To be fair, I quite like it, despite the fact that I thought I'd be disappointed. Anna Sui fragrances can occasionally be a little nauseating and cheap smelling, but Sui Love is not like that at all. It's sweet to my nose, but inoffensively so. The scent best suits warmer weather, with it's crispness and watery florals. In some ways, Sui Love is a little generic, but certainly not boring. I think it's a pretty little scent, perfect for young schoolgirls. The longevity while not fantastic, lasts relatively well and the sillage is thankfully quite intimate and soft. I recommend.

Batch code 710201 This was my first ever perfume. I still have my first bottle (with like 1ml left) and this brand new bottle. Wearing to bed atm to reminisce on the memories. Got this gifted to me at 12/13 when it was first released the bottle I have has a code that dates to original production 2001* (1002) Opens up with fruits passionfruit and slight hint at the bergamot. It's powdery and creamy with a hint of tart. This was the fragrance I wore as a teen when everyone else wore Britney spears and jlo. It's now almost extinct and I was so lucky to be walking past a perfume store and saw a brand new bottle in the window. They said they hadn't sold it in years. The shop was cold yet bright but upon opening my fears were quelled. Top and middle notes still sing the fruits and citrus tart. Good luck finding. Rare as hens teeth

I got this along with 3 other Anna Sui minatures and I have to say it's totally different from what I imagined it to be! I expected something very sweet and juicy but it turned out to be floral and only a bit sweet. It reminds me of something plesant from my childhood. I think it will go well with Asian climate, high humidity and heat, then this perfume will be a refreshing, soothing potion. Weak points? Absoulutely no lasting power. It disappears within half and hour or less, remaining not even a trace of its presence on skin. I'm happy to own a minature, but I probably won't buy a bigger bottle, I'd rather spend my money on something that lasts longer than a body spray.

Suntan lotion coconut top notes, which give way to passionfruit. I find no osmanthus or violet whatsoever, just a muddled mess of synthetic jasmine and tuberose adulterated by the persistent (now rotten) tropical fruit note. ...then, half an hour in, it makes a u-turn and goes into a pleasant vanilla drydown nearly identical (but thinner, and with less lasting power and sillage) to that of l'eau The One by D & G (which I adore). Bonus points for being complex, but that's about it. Of course, the bottle is adorable, for children.

It's like a breath of fresh summer evening air. It's 2002 and you're a teenager, wearing a pretty beaded sarong, sat in a beautiful garden blooming with evening flowers at sunset, as the warm breeze blows through your hair. It's simple, slightly exotic, youthful without being childish, it's fun and pretty. The early 00s had a genie micro trend- beaded curtains, belly piercings, bangles, sheer fabrics. This to me smells how that aesthetic looked- citrus, rose, aqua and spice.

I can understand why these captivating, quirky perfumes would attract teens and the young at heart, but I wish the fragrances wouldnt smell so generic and tacky. Even as a teen (Im 20 now) I was charmed by the bottles designs but the fragrances never apealed to me, and they seemed to vanish in minutes. Hopefully now Anna Sui will put emphasis on the fragrances just as it does on the bottles designs

This was one of the very first perfumes i owned - it was a gift, and i was about 16. Of Course i loved the bottle, but I also think it is a very young scent. I don't think i would buy this for myself now, but its nice to go and smell it sometimes in the perfume stores. It's perfect for summer, but very, very sweet - sort of reminds me of eating fruit in summer and having juice run down your chin!

I bought this perfume in October 2002 on a cruise. So it's been at least 17 years since I smelled it. But, I sampled Dolce & Gabbana Devotion in store today and this was the scent memory I had! So I compared notes on Fragrantica and they have some overlap. So, it may not be exact but my brain pulled out a fragrance that I long forgot about! Hope you find this helpful!

I bought this online without ever smelling it. It's not horrible, but has a definate baby powder smell to that I don't find sexy at all. When I don't want a perfume, I usually give it to a friend. But I like the bottle so I wear it to relax me if I can't sleep. And it's seems to help.. like it would a baby =)

I used to wear this back in the days and still remember exactly how it smells. I detected a lot of vanilla mixed with citrus. Quite warm and definitely sweet in my opinion. Now that I think about it, I don't think this smells like anything I've smelled before. Really unique. I'd give it that.

i don't have much to offer on the smell of this fragrance because i don't remember well, but like many others this was my first perfume. i sprayed it all over, took a walk in the sun and came back looking like i had chemical burns. i think i must be allergic to something in it

I quite like it. The smell is more grown-up compared to the other Sui frags. More flowers, less juice. It is definitely sweet but I do not think it is like candy. However, jigglyclefairypuff is right saying this is for the young at heart which I still am. :-)

I wish I could remember what this smelled like. My mother wore this when I was a kid, along with Clinique happy and miss Dior Cherie. I remember seeing this bottle sitting on her vanity in front of the window, I wish I could smell it again!!!

I used this perfume about 10 years ago and loved it. To me it is really fruity yet floral at the same time. I have outgrew it now and it is not a timeless perfume that i will continue to love like i have Gloria by Cacharel.

I don't remember what this smelled like but it is one of only two bottles of fragrance I have ever fully used up. Surely that's encouraging. I still have the pretty bottle, preserved in a forgettable 90s nostalgia.

This fragrance is available in Canada apparently. A lot o people are mentionning that they can't find the fragrance any longer but it appears it resurfaced at discounted fragrance e stores...

I like the bottle very much. The smell is not bad, but not something I could wear every day. A friend of mine told me, that it smells on summer lotion.

Watery bright citrus with sugary fruit. Nice but not very different from the other fruity florals so popular right now. Cute bottle, though.
