H&M Rue Crémieux

This isn't exactly a dupe of any Viva La Juicy currently in existence. But to me it's what a peach VLJ flanker would be, assuming it was done well. The opening seems a little cheap to me, but it soon calms down into a nice, lite gourmand. Like peach pie filling with a sandalwood undertone. I love this inexpensive gem and hope they keep making it!

I bought this at the store as a gift to my cousin. Never bothered testing it out since it was just for a gift. When I got home, I tried opening it to smell it before I wrap it and oh booooy. This scent has to be mine. I kept it and bought my cousin a lippie instead. That's how heavenly this scent is -- dreamy and creamy and sweet. I love it!

this is beautiful! the lotus really shines through on my skin but I also get that candy peach vibe everyone is talking about. I think this is one of the best h&m scents I’ve tried so far! just like with many of the other ones, it’s not super unique, but it’s definitely pretty and likeable. this one has a bit more depth to it than the other scents I’ve tried, which is probably why it’s one of my favorites. it’s still a bit synthetic and shampoo-y, but it has more flair to it in my opinion than, say, freewheeling which is a scent that also falls into the floral fruity category. I would say it’s almost a spot on dupe for viva la juicy noir and it also comes quite close to gold couture, so if you are looking something similar to those but with a friendlier price tag, this one’s perfect.

This is millennial pink in a bottle, the smell of an Instagram influencer with always perfectly 'messy' curls and 'naked' makeup. It's sweet, squeaky-clean, youthful and simple, not particularly complex or unique in any way but pleasant and endearing. I wish the florals were more prominent - right at the start, along with the lilac, I got a distinct green, tea-rose note (like that of Paul Smith Rose) which I loved and got me to pick it up immediately, but sadly it seems to dissipate almost immediately and without that greenery it seems to be more a soft-focus wash of peachy pleasantry than a fully realised scent. Which is just fine for what it is: like scrolling through a well-curated Instagram, it's perfectly nice and fun but there's not much going on below the surface.

Ett spontanköp, köpte lilla flaskan på 10 ml, perfekt för att testa nytt/ta med i handväskan etc. Inte den mest komplexa och sofistikerade doften, men mysig, anspråkslös. Persika och vanilj kan väl ingen ogilla. Tänker på Bellini, men inte riktigt den typen man dricker i en elegant bar, gjord på färsk persika och en schysst prosecco. Snarare något man slänger ihop när tjejkompisarna kommer över och man kurar ihop sig i soffan. En helt habil doft som jag kommer att använda till plugget och hemma!

Exactly as the notes describe - creamy vanilla, juicy peach, powdery heliotrope - with light projection and excellent longevity, although stays close to the skin after half an hour or so. This has much more in common with Stila Creme Bouquet (as a previous reviewer noted) than Viva La Juicy. The latter is much more of a synthetic caramel blast of fragrance than this gentle, dreamy juice. Altogether a lovely, soft, gourmand leaning scent at a fabulous price. Perfect for bedtime!

Tried in store, it's a very lovely, heavy vanilla and peach milkshake kind of thing. Very sweet, nice and noticeable. Nothing special about this blend, but nothing to get upset about either, it's likeable. Smells like a lazy sunday, lounging in the sofa in a big cashmere sweater, with a lukewarm cup of pickwick. Nice and promising, but not quite satisfying somehow.

Starts off smelling a bit like a dry down of Lancome's Tresor mixed with Ferragamo's Dream. When the sweetness wanes off a bit, you can smell the artificial fruitiness with some vanilla. Also, there's definitely pineapple in this but no one's tellin ya.

Rue Cremieux by H&M is a bit similar to the sorely missed classic, Creme Bouquet by Stila (now discontinued). This creation is a billowy, heady and sweet gourmand floral with a liquid facet reminiscent of fragrant nectar waiting to be consumed. It's drydown is a surprising veer to a delectable and spicy, fried pastry with apple filling.

I could swear there is pink pepper in here. Oh well.. the perfume is very very airy, like a cloud. Delicate vanilla and creamy peaches combined into a souffle. Gourmand and sweet but the refined kind of sweetness. This is not realistic vanilla and peach, it's more of an artificial perspective of how they should smell.

Vanilla playdough. In a good way. Sadly I don't get any lilac or lotus which is a shame because they are two of my favourite notes. But this is lovely for what it is. Not childish or cloying. Just comforting and cute

It really does smell like Viva la Juicy. At first it's very fruity but then it start to resemble the JC perfume a lot. Longevity is not amazing but still for the price I think it's worth it.

I really like many of these H&M fragrances! They're all very wearable and perfectly casual! I just wish they could make these ones into edp versions. I would be all over them.
