L'Amour Fou

wow, wow and again wow! I bought it on the internet just because it was so cheap. 8 euros for 100 ml bottle, I mean are you serious? I wouldn't mind paying a lot more for this beauty. It was a blind buy so I was schocked how much I really liked it. It's a very warm sweet powdery fragrance. I would say it's not suitable for summer time, although I still have to figure this out. Sillage is awesome, longevity is so so...but hey, this perfume gave me so many compliments by everyone, everywhere. What a winner! I have to say that this powdery sweet composition is very pleasing for the crowds, so if you want the attention and praises get this amazing fragrance from Ungaro you'll not regret it.

I love aroma of ripe blackberry and wanted smth with outstanding note of it. I was looking for perfume list with blackberry and wanted Mure et Musc by L'Artisan or Lover by Janne Arthes. But I bought a few samples of Ungaro with Fou L amour edp and wow, this is my divine blackberry perfume. Note is obvious but yummy and mature covered bautifully with powdery and woody notes. Its feminine, romantic, versatile perfume for Office space to dating. Pretty longlasting and noticeble. Worth much more.

Male opinion here. After testing it out on two separate days, I figured it out. I love it because it reminds me of one of my favorites, Givenchy Gentleman (2017). Iris/Pear/Leather/Cardamon there, and this Ungaro stands as the perfect feminine version of that with violet/pear/cashmere/Pink pepper. A very similar powdery/spicy combination on both. Sexy and refined.

smells like my moms old purse where she used to keep her lipsticks,yammy and ladylike.i like it alot but not sure it is the scent itself or the nostalgy behinde it.i kept sniffing for houres(good quality too),i may even buy this one.after all its nice to remember happy days of childhood.

I would like to try this perfume but after searching I have not turned up a site where I can purchase it yet. I would appreciate if someone could let me know where they have seen it for purchase? Thanx so much.

I gotta say that I love, love, love the bottle on this, as it's kinda vintage looking black glass with a deep pink jewelled lid. It smelled great on my relatives as I initially purchased it for them and being as it was soooo cheap, I decided to get myself one and I would say that it's pretty ok. I find it great for daytime, when I want something that's light but at the same time with a Dior Poison vibe. It isn't too overwhelming in the office but for some reason I find that I can't make out the exact notes ?? apart from some violet, which is just as well that i'm cool with violet !! All I know is that I don't find it powdery and it's def an Oriental that starts out sweet on the initial burst from the bottle and last for about 3-4 hours which isn't too bad when you consider the price !!

Well this is surprising! I got this as a gift, and honestly would not have even looked at the bottle in the counter. It looks like a bad celebrity perfume. But the scent is not what I would have expected. It's quite mature, spicy and a bit smoky! On my skin it's peppery and woody with a hint of sweetness. The vanilla kicks in later and I can trace a hint of blackberry, but otherwise it's not fruity at all. It's warming and in a way comforting. Sillage is strong, and the staying power is medium. I will definitely give this a go in the colder months. But the bottle.. Yikes. A good lesson though; never judge a book by its covers.

Wow the violets are the star a hint of pink pepper corns, juicy tart (and a hint of sweet) blackberries mmmmm and the rose shy but present! I'm not a very floral gal but this is just right! Balanced with the cashmere woods amber and vanilla it's awesome! Floral fresh, just enough spicy sweetness, with the right amount of warmth and depth! It's something I would happily wear if gifted! It's sexy and chic all in one.

Very warm, embracing, cuddling scent. Nevertheless is light, giving space not suffocating. It's nice to have it all day long at work, when used in the evenig, shows "another face" becames a bit darker and heavier. Notes are like in orchestra without a solist, very well build, stable in time. It is not agressive, not seductive, a good companion in the blossoming spring time.

On me this is very sweet. It's rich in blackberry and vanilla. Reminds me of Attraction by Avon. The quality is pretty much the same. It's a nice scent, but not too extraordinary. The bottle looks cheap, like it's not created for a designer perfume, but for a girly celebrity scent.

Ooooh - this is nice - dry spicy after a bit of a mishmash of fruits and flowers. It's a real like but is gone before I've really had a chance to fall in love. You'll need a pretty heavy spray to get something worth wearing, but it was cheap and a happy blind buy.

At first spray it smells spicy and old-fashioned, a bit masculine. It devolops quickly into pleasantly peppery fruits. I guess it is a really nice scent, but I really have to dig my nose into my wrist to smell anything. Or maybe I am too familiar with the notes.

I love the way the violet and blackberry go together in this. They smell pretty, it's fruity, sweet and a bit powdery. Not overwhelming on the powdery aspect, just nice!

This perfume is... fine. I’m not mad at it at all. I’m just not interested by it because there is nothing really unique. It’s a fine smell for daily wear, you’ll smell fine to others. I don’t think anyone would be offended by this. It’s got a 90’s vibe. Starts with the pink pepper and the violet blasts through. Cashmere and amber are there. It opens quite strong and a bit sharp. No fruit on me. Settles down quickly and is a skin scent within 90 mins and was gone after 4 hours. It reminds me a bit of Jasmine noir. Another scent I have that is fine. 😁

At first the pink pepper is overwhelming to me. After it dries down, it fades a little and it's not as bad. This was a blind buy. I now check to see if pink pepper is one of the top notes before doing a blind buy.

شروع‌ای بسیار عجیب با بویی شبیه به قنادی ها و رایحه‌ی غالب زعفرونی اما بی کیفیت بوی قنادی های ساده که کلا چند مدل کیک بیشتر نمی‌پزند و مواد اولیه‌شون هم خیلی متوسطه بوی میوه ها،سنگین و الکلیه.شیرینی مصنوعی‌ای داره و اصلا به دل‌ام ننشست به مرور از آشفتگی خارج میشه اما یه بوی پلاستیکی و ناخوشایند ای توش داره نه چیز جالب‌ای نبود *************** scent:5.5/10 longevity:6/10 sillage:6/10 purchase value:2/10 ********* overall:4.9/10

I can't decide if I like it or love it or even...hate this perfume. Is too sharp at first, spices and powdery violets almost sting your nose, then it dries down to a darker, sweeter scent. Mixes nice with the cold air when I go out, but I don't know how would this act in summer or spring. The longevity is impressive, I can feel it on clothes or in hair for days.

Strange scent, hard to describe. Not sweet, not warm, not sour, a bit oriental. Like a nectarine mixed with some orient notes.

I want to kick myself for not trying this beauty properly when it first came out! I dismissed it as a cheap and predictable scent (I love some Ungaro's though) instead it is rather the opposite. Together with another scent's purchase I got a couple of samples of L'Amour Fou so tonight I decided to test it. This is the perfect lipstick scent almost gives me the same great feeling as Lipstick Rose by the great Frederic Malle (quality is def higher in FM of course!). I have a Guerlain lipstick that smells just like LAF. This scent starts out pretty strong with a very powdery violet, dominating the whole composition, and it dries down to a soft and subtle vanilla, but really it is like smearing lipstick all over your skin. If you enjoy the scent of cosmetics try this out. Sillage is really good longevity about four hours on my skin

Longevity is outstanding. But as for the smell, I find it too sweet and cloying. I would consider it more of a fruty floral than oriental floral, or maybe more adequately a fruity oriental. The smell of blackberies, which I love, disapperars under a heavy and sticky fruity mixture which makes me think of raspberry or cheries plus patchouly rather than blackberries. Overall it is very fruity, but not at all in a fresh way, quite the opposite. Do not find the scent original either, because there are several perfumes on the market with this type of scent: Tresor midnight rose, Délices, and Emanuel Ungaro's Apparition. Having said that, I do not think it is a bad perfume, mostly considering the staying power, which is very very good. It might be said that is is dark and misterious, but I am not sure.
