Touch With Love

I was very surprised by this perfume, in the best way possible. Due to its low price, I admit I was a little prejudiced-- I was expecting something that might be good for wearing to bed or casually, but I wasn't expecting much more than that. I certainly wasn't expecting to find a new love :) But this stuff is great! Both the look of the bottle and the smell remind me of pink lemonade combined with vintage lipstick. It's a sweet, delicate, fluffy soft cloud of roses and raspberries. It's similar to Frederic Malle's Lipstick Rose, but a softer pink. There's also a little tart green-ness at the start which is giving it a slightly citrusy, lemonade aspect. Overall, it smells much more expensive than it is-- not at all like a cheap body spray or drugstore perfume. This is a fairly safe blind buy for those who like ultra feminine sweet pink scents (such as Lipstick Rose, My Insolence, Drole de Rose etc.) My only complaint is the longevity and sillage. You really need to spray quite a bit to get the desired sillage, and it doesn't last long on me.. but other people without hungry caterpillar scent eating skin will probably have better luck in that area, perfumes never last long on me. And besides, this scent is so inexpensive that it's not really trouble to re-apply often. A winner! PS- notes listed on this page are way off. If you go into this expecting a green spicey oriental you are going to be disappointed. This is sweet delicate roses, roses, roses. Maybe some violet/iris and powder. Definitely not an oriental though.

Ooh, I really love this one! The amber in this really stands out on me, and it gives this mysterious, sexy vibe. I also get this note in it that smells clean, but maybe that's the new soap I used.. either way it's nice. I also enjoy the warmth of the wood undertones. It really gives me the cozy warm feeling that I like in my Fall/Winter perfumes. I got this as a tester from Scented Monkey... too bad I spilled the whole thing on the bathroom counter. I'm going to have to get a bottle of this one! Editing to say I got my bottle today. It took me several tries to get the perfume to pump out and I ended up with a half spray, but I sprayed again with a full spray. I think this was a big mistake. The first 30 minutes of this was ok and everything I listed above, but after that I started getting this strong bittery wood smell that did not agree with me at all. I think I started to get an allergic reaction from it. My throat got all scratchy and my lungs as well. I don't remember this from my sample at all. I think it's because I just put too much on. I tried to get some off with water, but it just sort of stuck around with me all night. I guess it's safe to say a little bit of this goes a long way!

MMMMMM. yes!! Picked this up on a whim and so glad I did. Notes listed above are not correct - spices and wood? No. This is rose. The scent it leaves behind in the box is misleading. The box trail smells 80s mishmash. On first spray, the top reveals that sweet thin veil I get from Bvulgari and Dolce & Gabbana fragrances. It doesn't last long, as soon after settling, a deep heart of rose opens, mixed with a tidge of berrycitrusvanillacream. Ever so subtle vanillacitrusberrycream, but just enough to feature the rose. I am immediately reminded of the Paris rose scent, L'Occitane rose, and the rose scent in Lancome cosmetics. This is warmer than Rock N Rose Couture, thanks to an amber/woods/powder/vanilla base. Thankfully rose is my signature flower, so I'm totally into this. Gorgeous. This is a daytime rose, easing into dinner. Maybe good for a summer outdoor nighttime picnic, is casual but bold. Enjoy!

This is little gem was unknown to me but thanks to the wonderful reviewers on this site, I was able to make a perfect blind buy. TWL is gorgeous! Take some fluffy rose-flavored marshmallows, smash 'em with raspberry lipstick, throw some amber on top and there you have it! It's like sticking your nose in an expensive make-up bag. Thick, sensual, and so very feminine. This is a younger, gentler, sweeter sister of Frederic Malle's Lipstick Rose. Stays close to the skin and fades after a few hours. But for the price, it really can't be beat. My best cheapie ever. Love! Ps: Fragrantica: Please correct the notes. These are all wrong. This fragrance is not woody, green, or oriental at all!

For no apparent reason I love this. I've been basking in the comfort of this scent all day long. I don't know what I smell for sure. I can't compare it to any other scent. I know that during the bitter cold of winter, there are times when your chilled and this scent smells like and feels like a warm blanket right out of the dryer. Clean, dry, warm, cuddly. This is a blankey in a bottle. Buy a blankey and save a hug!
