Love Shot

“A cocktail is not meant to be a mélange. It is not a potpourri or an Easter parade. At its best, a cocktail should be crisp, elegant, sincere—and limited to two ingredients.” — Amor Towles Love Shot is the perfect two ingredient cocktail on my skin, raspberry and leather. Nothing more. Nothing less. This is a skin scent for me, but not as unremarkable as that tag can be at times. It has presence and the gift of sincerity, not perfumery, exactly. I don't think you are meant to smell like perfume with this fragrance. The scent of your skin is meant to elevate with this composition, not just worn on/by it. It layers with your skin (oils? perspiration?) so smoothly it's difficult to separate. Love Shot feels very much like a part of me, though I never forget I'm wearing it, nor do I think those near me forget either. Anyone leaning in close with this one, won't step away any time soon. I don't mind. I'm betting you won't either :) Noteworthy raspberry/leather leather/raspberry MY skin intimate projection something sensual Official Website Notes Top Bergamot, Pink Berries, Peony Heart Jasmine, Patchouli, Raspberry accord Base Vetiver, Leather accord, Vanilla, Musk

Me ,my husband and my two daughters are guest at my husband's cousin destination wedding. So we flight there and we planned to stroll the city before it.He picked for me Love shot at ex Nihilo boutique.Love shot has warm and classic feels to it..like modern version of something Chanel .I didn't know it has raspberry,on my first sniffed I smelled ambery soft leather almost suede and touch of powdery just a little.i think it has Labdanum in it.It will always be a beautiful memory for me,not just because of our trip,or because he picked it up for me but also because Love Shot is really beautifully classic

This reminds me so much of one of my favourite fragrances, Deci Dela from Nina Ricci, discontinued a long time ago. The leather used here is airy, powdery, and reminiscent of makeup. There’s a fruity and sweet note accompanying it. This combination is chic, youthful and very feminine. It lacks the effervescence and wearability of Deci Dela, and I can imagine it becoming overwhelming in warm weather, but I’m happy that I’ve found a replacement for a lost treasure, although it is ridiculously overpriced.

This one is a surprise. A good one. I didn't quite know what to make of it. I swear there is tobacco present. It's a potent start. I guess it's the leather. Gradually the leather eases and a big juicy sweet raspberry appears. Very natural smelling. I'm not really a fruity fragrance lover but I really like this. It's starts off a unisex scent but it definitely leans a touch more to the feminine when the fruit appears. It's definitely a cool and chilly weather scent.

I fell head over heels in love with this perfume. While checking prices online I noticed that several notes are missing in the perfume pyramid of fragrantica (source: ex nihilo paris): Olfactory notes Top Bergamot, Pink Berries, Peony Heart Jasmine, Patchouli, Raspberry Accord Base Vetiver, Leather Accord, Vanilla, Musk this perfume bears a certain resemblance to bottega veneta btw: mrsg34's review is spot on and was indeed smelling patchouli
