Light Blue Love Is Love Pour Femme

I'm getting close to finishing my 5mL decant of this, so time to decide if I want a full bottle or not. I've already left a review before, but it was early in my perfume journey. I'm still enjoying this! I pretty much only smell fruit (raspberry most, then lemon), unlike the OG which smells like lemon, apple, and some perfuminess (florals and musk, and I guess wood). Juicy gourmand. Makes my mouth water. I feel like it reminds me of a raspberry juice drink or something. Not very complex imo, but not everything needs to be, and would be great for layering (I should try, it's only just occurred to me! Maybe with chance eau tendre?). I'm thinking about my other raspberry dominant decant, Mon Paris, and which one I'd grab a full bottle of. Mon Paris is much more perfumey. I'd probably recommend it over love is love, but I think I personally prefer love is love. It's very simple but I just like it, and the perfuminess and strength of Mon Paris was a bit much last time I wore it. I hypothesized in my last review that this wouldn't be good for hot hot days, and the sun is currently blasting me in the car and the sweetness is cranked. I wouldn't say it's cloying, but it's certainly not refreshing like the OG would be.

LB Love is Love is a Wow for me! It's much more appealing on my skin than other LBs in this line (I've tried LB, LB Intense and LB Sun, all just a meh for me). The opening of LBLove is fresh tart, lightly sweetened lemonade flavored with a hint of raspberry & granny smith apple followed up with very light whipped cream & ice cream notes which marries with the zesty lemon note after 15 min resulting in a heavenly slice of lemon meringue pie. This is fresh sexy and makes me smile. If you are a gourmand lover who wants a fresh citrus summer fragrance that is sexy yet approachable, then sample this! I cannot detect any amber or musk on my skin after dry down (maybe they will be more noticeable in hotter weather), and the cedar is mild. The only disappointment is the poor performance & projection; it dies down to a skin scent on me after 2.5 hrs. Performance is better on clothing. D&G please improve performance on this- Love is Love intense please! Since it's fresh and not too overtly sexy, and since the performance is poor, I would wear this to work in the summer, freshen up mid-day and not worry about offending those around me.

This is so refreshing and lively, but sweeter than light blue. It's like a fizzy, delicious raspberry lemonade. I get the original Light Blue DNA of lemons and cedar, but the sweet berry notes make it much more alluring. I don't get any ice cream or creme chantilly vibes, but I don't mind, a sparkling, almost drinkable raspberry-citrus soda perfume with a woody-musky undertone is just as good. Unfortunately there is a major downside to this. I often find complaints about longevity exaggerated, but in this case, they are true. This starts out fine but turns to a very thin, barely there skin scent in a couple of hours. It's gone way quicker than L'Imperatrice or any Escada, just to give a comparison to other light fruity scents. The best scenario to use this is for running quick daytime errands when you want to switch to something heavier in the evening. I don't think this is worth the full price even though I love the scent. I might consider a small bottle if I see it heavily discounted when the summer is over, as that often happens with Light Blue flankers.

I have ordered this and am waiting on its delivery so this is merely a forward to my review. I am no expert but I feel this one is being thought of incorrectly. The brand clearly states an addition of red berries and raspberry gelato. Not ice cream. Fragrantica just used the note of ice cream because it’s the closest thing they thought would work? I personally think they should have used sorbet instead. Maybe people are seeing the picture of the ice cream therefore smelling it (for some) when it’s not really there. But others are EXPECTING to smell ice cream and not then being disappointed. Idk. Just my thought. This has happened to me with other scents SO that being said I am EXPECTING a raspberry gelato note which to me is tart sweet and more watery than an ice cream. Edit: yes, I know gelato is a dairy based dessert but I have had raspberry gelato and it was, like I said above, more tart and fruity than a traditional American ice cream

🍋 🍓🍒🍦🫧 The opening was exactly the same as the OG, but an hour later it was way sweeter and the dominant note was raspberry. My skin has a history of sweetening up scents, but this went so sweet, I'm not sure it would be good in the summer anymore, like the OG. Regardless, I love spring fruity scents, and can easily see this as my go to raspberry scent. Of course, you don't have to have a perfume for every fruit type, but I do love raspberries! Edit to add: the raspberry smells like the flavour in gummy lollies i.e. red frogs! Which I don't love, however, it also reminds me of this raspberry lemon icy pole thing I had when I went to the art gallery with my sister years ago, which is a nice scent and memory I would like to spray myself with
