D&G Anthology L'Amoureux 6

Beautiful fresh spicy woody gentle green clean slightly sweet airy scent 🪵🍃🌶️🌫️🍋🌬️ Starts off w a burst of bergamot and pink pepper,, v light but sparkly citrus...then i get the beautiful juniper greens with the sweetness from cardamom which feels v soothing! The first 3 hours has an undertone of watery cleanness which then slowly morphs into dry airy clean woods like birch and smooth velvety sandalwood...there's subtle white musk and orris root which feels like a finely milled luxury compact powder that smoothens and rounds out the fragrance so gently 🤌🏻 Its a perfff unisex scent that keeps developing throughout with whiffs of different notes..not linear at all! Lasts 8 hours and projects a lot for the first 2 hours,, and then almost throughout upon movement, while being a scent bubble I can see the comparisons w Byredo Gypsy Water,, to me Gypsy Water is more wateryy icy light green vanilla and effervescent citrus,, so i layer Adidas Ice Dive w L'Amoureux and it deffo adds the icy effervescent sparkly citrus effect 🍋🧊 I'd say together they're almost 75% like Byredo Gypsy Water It's such a delicate masterpiece that it can smell different at different temperatures and skin chemistry..sad that it's discontinued,, will treasure my bottle ♾️

I ran across this at Ulta, where it was shelved with the fragrances for women. I had no idea it was marketed to men (or unisex) until I got home and looked it up. I am seriously enjoying this! It sprayed on very harsh and grassy, to the point where I wondered just what I had done to myself. My boyfriend actually recoiled, and I could see in his eyes that he wasn't looking forward to the ride home...though it was probably due in part to the cloud of perfumes I was wrapped in by then. I had on some Prada Candy, some Hypnotic Poison, some Infusion d'Iris and L'Imperatrice, to name a few, so you can guess what adding a huge green bomb over the top of that was like. But a few minutes later, I was drawn to the spot where I had sprayed L'Amoureux. Once the harshness was gone, I was left with a very soft, fruity wood that I liked very much. I ordered a sample not too long after that, and found very little of that green bomb that had so startled me before. I wore it the next weekend, and the boyfriend liked it a lot! I did not tell him what it was :> The only complaint I have with this is the lasting power. If it lasted longer, I might have a signature on my hands.

This has some similarity with The One for men, it has more citrus at the beginning, bringing the fresh feeling - refreshing and up-lifting, middle note is spicy fruity in a very masculine way, pretty unique and last bout an hour, I'll imagine a prefect moment with your loves one, dry down is mild musky woody scent. Overall, it is a pleasant and casual fragrance with a moderate longevity of 4 hours on me with 3 sprays, which is much better than most of the recent release sport & summer fragrances! When I wear this, I feel uplifting, happy and stress free. I guess this is what D&G try to bring to us by having a lighter but enjoyable scent, enable the person wearing an thin but noticeable scent, light and pleasant scent for a perfect sunny day! I will give 7.5/10 for this.

I wore this in my mid twenties (I am a woman). I didn't wear much perfume in my earlier years (not daily like I do now), but this one was my signature scent for quite a while. I just wanted to share my excitement because today I tried a sample of Hermes Eau des Merveilles (originally created in 2004) and I was transported back to the feeling I had with #6. I have been very sensitive to sweet and heavy fragrances of late, so I bought a big bottle of the Hermes. If I could find an affordable bottle of L'amoureux, I would absolutely wear it at length again, but for now-the Hermes will do quite nicely (it is advertised as a feminine fragrance and while I do think it enhances my own femininity-so did #6 and they are both very unisex perfumes in an objective sense).

I'm female, 31, and I love love love this fragrance. I bought it a few years back when it first came out, and it still smells brand-new, hasn't turned in the bottle at all! Everytime I take a whiff I am glad I bought it! I am a woodsy, but not masculine, girly-girl. I love a sensual undercurrent, which is to say a layered fragrance with dark undertones. A lot of perfumes for women are so overtly "sexy" that they're just not for me. I am not big on waters, greens, florals, or powders. This one is the right amount of woods, and the right amount of fresh. It reminds me of snuggling next to a fire place with a glass of champagne! Very adult without being too "mature." All in all, my husband loves it, as do my girlfriends!
