Beyond Love

OMG. Beyond Love is strong, very strong. Beyond Love is "sexy, overwhelming, sexy, bizarre glory". Perfect definition from previous reviewer! I tried many hours ago and it's still lingering on my wrist, so that I managed to wash my hands without putting soap on that spot. I don't want to loose it so soon! I don't even want to imagine opening the tap of the barrel and putting my head under the flow of Beyond Love. It could be too much for my little brain. I tried it almost careless while looking for something else to test. The by Kilians didn't impress me much at first. Ok, the bottle is absolutely stunning, but it's not a reason enough to buy for me. Well, I don't see me buying this one anyway. It is charged 175 euro for 50ml. Another scent to swoon for that I won't have in my collection :-( Why do I like these expensive scents? In this case I like Beyond Love, not all By Kilian and a good reason for liking it is high quality. In the '80s I thought that original Chloè was best tuberouse, then I thought that Fracas was best tuberouse, then I thought that Carnal Flower was best tuberouse. From today on I will think that Beyond Love is best tuberouse. A total global floral experience to shake your brains in a grey sad evening in winter. At first a single squirt seems to be too much already. I smell strong coconut. I don't even like coconut in fragrances. It smells like cheap suntan lotion in many perfumes. Coconut in Beyond Love is heavenly. What kind of coconut do they actually put inside? It is a special coconut from a hidden secret kingdom in Far East? Igave it time to settle down, hoping that it would morph to an ugly mess of coconut and messy flowers. I didn't want to like it. That never happened. It actually became smoother and smoother pure, thick yet subtle, strong yet soft tuberouse, climbing the ladders of my head and making my knees weak. On my skin it only gets better with hours. In the drydown coconut gives a special mouthwatering creaminess to tuberouse. The sillage is perfect. Beyond Love is to die for. In spite of being utterly feminine I can see a man with an odd personality proudly wearing this one. If a man I don't feel attracted to gave me this one I would run away with the black box as fast as I could! In the shop they didn't even have a free little vial for smelling purposes to give me.

It is a sexy, sweet, feminine, lovely....Intoxicating scent. The scent is a divine fresh sweet creamy almost a buttery floral (just the right green notes added to it). It is stunning from start to finish! It wears into a sublime tropical heavenly scent. Amazing notes that are amazingly put together. It is a STUNNING fragrance. I was told recently at a party that I smelled very sexy, and beautiful. It does have some longevity and is strong - but it is no loud or harsh. This is not a silage monster. A few sprays is all I need for a good 10+ hours. It is perfectly done. It is everything you want in a beautiful tuberose scent plus plus! ____Love!Lov____________Love!Love ______Love!Love!Love_______Love!Love!Love!L ____Love!Love!Love!Love___Love!Love!Love!Love ___Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Lo_______Love __Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Lo_________Love _Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!L_______Love _Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!______Lo Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love__Lov Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Lo_L Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love _Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Lo __Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love! ____Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Lo ______Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Lo _________Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!Love!L ____________Love!Love!Love!Love!Love! ______________Love!Love!Love!Love! _________________Love!Love!Lov ___________________Love!Love _____________________Love!L ______________________Love _______________________Lo * Edit: * 'buttery' does not mean it smells like butter or popcorn. I saw someone mentioned that above me in a review - they need to wash their hands from the food on them before reviewing- this does NOT smell like butter or popcorn.

12th What is beyond love? Ecstasy or Disappointment... I tested this on another warm humid day and sprayed it extremely generously. I have two 5-ml decants from 2 different shops, and one is just a tad better from a dabbing on my skin. Different bottles, year, effects from environment in which it was stored? The best decant I had before these two was light yellowish in color but these two are orange in color. My first decant (out of 3 decants) was delicious and sultry. So I wanted more, but was disappointed in what I received and thought I could give it another testing chance again. I imagine this must have been reformulated at some point, because I remember it being a better, lovelier tuberose, more effecvescent fruitiness, sweetness, tartness, coconut and less greens. It is still a good tropical tuberose with a hint of stems and plastic. I do not get camphor, grape, or bubblegum notes. It does have a beachy aroma (like intense tiare by montale for example), but much milder. So after dousing myself in this supposably extremely potent tuberose, it did not radiate much despite the perfect warm humid weather in which it should have bloomed. For the price, there are many better options out there. But that doesn't mean I dislike it; I am just bummed that it is not what it was, like the first time I tried it and was beyond love...in ecstasy. If anyone has had a similar experience, please share. Is it me? 8/10

Love and beyond love are the gourmet flower flavored french marshmallow smelling Kilians. And I adore them both. It took me a long time and many testings over years to even LIKE this fragrance, the tuberose and the jasmine killed it for me, but they mellow out quickly into something very gourmand and sweet. I just ordered the 100ml refill from Luckyscent, it is the same price of the bottle for double the juice. I am not sure they let you get it unless you have a record of having a kilian full sized, but I am not sure. They have a limited selection of said refills, but if you are in europe and go to the bykillian site, you can purchase the 100 ml. refill of all of their perfumes. Maybe it works in the states to but not for me. Their Full bottles are 50ml. The bykilian site is amazing, if you click on the fragrance youre interested in and then "perfumers notes", it lists every note and amount used for every perfume they make. You know get to know exactly what your'e smelling and it shows the brands confidence that they cannot be replicated because of the fine ingredients and mixing. Im checking in at cosbar if they can get the love refill, hopefully they can, its a great money saver! I love my Kilians and use them quite often (I went through .25 oz in 2 days of my new to go sized Love). Life is short, enjoy it, enjoy your favorite fragrances to the full extent- or thats what I do anyway ;)

I first reviewed this over a year ago from a tester vial I purchased on Ebay. It came in three vials and I sprayed it once. It nearly knocked me down and was just horrible! It was amazing for about ten seconds. I was rifling through my collection of samples when I saw these vials again. I noticed one of them was a different color than the other two. Upon closer inspection I also saw that it was the only one with fluid in the pump! I decided to spray one of the others, and boom! Pure love! It is the truest most exclusively tuberose fragrance (barring the real flower) I have ever experienced. It is very similar to Bond No 9 Saks for her but greener, sharper, more potent and much longer lasting! It is in a word, perfect! Everything I have been searching for in a fragrance. There is something in the last notes of the dry down (at least on my skin) that reminds me very much of the peachy metallic tang that I love in Carolina Herrera. I'll never forget this fragrance. A new signature!
