Amore Mio Eau de Parfum

I simply love this smell. Sweetness at its best. My favourite perfume. Plus points for the affordable price tag. I did try Nina by Nina Ricci. In the beginning, they do smell exactly the same. Sweet and playful with a tinge of shyness. But towards the end, Nina ends off with a perfumey smell totally different from the initial sweetness, whereas amore mio gets sweeter over time. Lasting power is pretty strong considering how I live in a warm climate country and sweat half the time but I'm still able to smell the gentle sweetness at the end of the day. If anyone wants to swap this, I have a new unopened bottle. =)

The cherry marzipan combo intrigued me after stumbling upon a review of this and found only a few other perfumes came up in a search as containing that combo. So when I saw a good price for a 1.7oz bottle on eBay I decided to snap it up. It's such a good balance of being sort of gourmand and fresh thanks to the lemon. Glad I found this. Blind buy success! I'm excited to try and find a more gourmand version of this for fall/winter.

Delicate wellness litchi cherry almond smell. It stays very close to skin and fabrics. From Grasse, the capital of perfumes. This one is soothing.

Almost juice sour green apples and little lemon and sour black cherry. No marzipan. I like this,it is worth more than the price.

its inexpensive but this fragrance smells really good . its sweet and easy to wear . , it reminds me of nina ricci nina perfume.

Good everyday spring/summer fragrance not overpowering. I love it and it lasts more than 4 hours.

First spray and this is a fresh juicy dupe of Nina Nina rici - it smells like green apple and berries (blackcurrant perhaps as stated in the notes?).A few minutes later I smell vetiver (this characteristic green parsley smelling note). Then this disappears rather quickly as well and we are left with a sour cherry-liqueur combined with an aromatic note of the amalfi lemon and perhaps a hint of a cedar undertone hidden somewhere in the back and musk. If you expect marzipan (I was really hoping for that), you will wait in vain... doesn't exist, never comes forth. This is fun and energetic and girly.Is this a masterpiece?Of course not. It is an easy going perfume, easy to spritz and go about your day?sure! I can actually imagine myself wearing this right after the shower as a fresh fruity scent. This one is simple but beautiful, and I don't think it will ever fail to put an easy smile on your face. I like it, I really do, it projects nicely (especially at night in autumnal or spring weather it comes out more aromatic and fresh).Longevity isn't great, but for that price, I can't complain (I got the 100ml bottle for less than 7 euros). Now, compared to the Nina perfume, this one is more fun and easier to wear as I find Nina to be too sweet and a less balanced version of this one.So yes, the dupe, surpassed the formal initial perfume ;) . Well done Jeanne Arthes! ps: love the packaging and the frosted bottle with the cut apple shape,its beautiful silver designs on, but I dislike the plastic snake (that fat head cobra I presume?) part on top, that isn't a cap, it just barely covers the nozzle.That is its only faux pas design-wise.Had it been a proper metal cap with an intricate carved snake curled around and on top of it, it would have been perfect.

I really, really like this little cheap gem. I find myself wanting to reach for it more and more in the warm months. I definitely get sweet cherries, sour lemon and a creamy marzipan, but I also get a distinctive jasmine/white-floral note in the heart. It's clean, fruity and sour-sweet, abit 'plastic' smelling, but that's fine with me, it's a cute scent, cheap and cheerful, and not meant to be taken seriously. The longevity is pretty good (~5 hours) considering that it's a light/fruity scent and that it's inexpensive. It has a politely pleasant sillage, I can clearly smell it on myself for atleast a few hours before it wears closer to the skin. I personally find it addictive. It is my go-to for running errands or for very casual days. The body lotion is good too, very scented, hydrating, and comes in a generous tube. It does smell like Nina, maybe abit more synthetic, it's also more tart/sour and there is a more distinctive jasmine note as it dries down, but Amore Mio has a much, much friendlier price point and it lasts longer on me than Nina...so that makes it a winner in my books.

Honestly, after a few rather well needed glasses of wine and whiskey and a terrible day I rather feel at past 1am I need to review this. So having just consumed sickly chocolate galore and a plethora of cheese with my wine, this is the perfect antidote. Now I normally love heavy incensey niche scents but as I sit in bed currently (or even right after showering in the morning) I must admit this is the perfect fruity floral! It's not sickly sweet and it has a gourmand note whilst still being rather refreshing. To me it is mostly lemon and marzipan with hints of things like cedar (which normally doesn't work for me) and musk (don't particularly catch it but something lasts on my skin and I'm assuming this is it.) For £10 in the sale with body lotion I'm perfectly happy, it's tons better than its sibling 'Amore Mio Forever' (smells like nice fruity shampoo to me) and beats modern sugary celebrity scents!

I am a Nina Ricci fan with experience and Nina was my signature scent for years, until Luna came along. I must say, Amore Mio does remind me strongly of Nina but not at first sniff. At first, I get some strange smoky scent, not fruity as the pyramid suggests, but something akin to fallen leaves on a bonfire, prunes, or dark chocolate. It’s not unpleasant, but rather unexpected. Yet after a couple of hours, it is a very convincing Nina impression. I am not sure I would tell the difference. It becomes more rounded and sweet as time passes. Right now, I’ve developed a taste for more gourmand, candy scents, but Amore Mio is still charming. I wear it when I feel nostalgic and want to conjure up memories of my college years when I wore Nina all the time. Who would’ve thought! I could never tell from the notes that these scents would be so similar.

I just got this and it smells like Antonio Banderas blue perfume. It is like Nina as well. That is why I got it. I have the Antonio one and it just would not last on my skin this one lasts and lasts for me. I noticed a few reviewers said it doesn't last verywell. I tested it first and it lasted so I got it. It is cheap and really unless you really want the Nina bottle or whatever this is just as good and probably lasts just as long. The mazipan is a little like Jennifer Lopez Live Platinum. This is sweet and foody smelling but as it dries it is smoother and less sweet. Try the Antonio one or Nina. If you like those then that is pretty much what this is. I only say that so you don't go searching for it because it is hard to get and just as easy to get Nina or Antonio's one. Very similar.

Very fruity, the lemon and cherry are very noticeable. There is a hint of almond and tonka, but I don't smell the other notes so much. The first spray gives a sharp blast of lemon, but within a few seconds it mellows and becomes very pleasant. This is a light fragrance and suitable for wearing to work on a hot summer day. I don't find it too sweet at all and I think it is suitable for all ages. Like most of the Arthes fragrances, this should be treated like a cologne in terms of concentration, although it is termed an eau de parfum. Expect to re-apply during the day, but in hot weather, that is not a disadvantage. It is not my favourite Amore Mio variant (I prefer Dolce Paloma and Forever), but I expect to use this bottle and its accompanying body lotion to the last drop.

This is a charming scent. Another from my recent acquisition of decants thanks to my wonderful Fragrantican angel! It's mostly fruity, but I can't quite determine the fruit. I feel like it's closer to Apple than cherry, but I suppose through the development that could have been interpreted a few different ways. It's also got a very noticeable gourmand side to it, though it's mostly fresh and not overwhelming. Marzipan is very distinct. I also definitely detect the almond which I believe contributes to the gourmand twist without being sugary. Overall, it's more sophisticated than one might think from something so adorable. It would be a great option for a gift for a young girl. I wouldn't buy a bottle myself, but I'll enjoy the few wears I get from this decant!

The "half apple" bottle is cute but that serpent cap... bleah... talk about kitsch! Were they trying to hint at the original sin with this design... the apple, the serpent and they called it "Amore Mio" meaning My Love?! Thankfully the perfume itself smells good. I was honestly expecting a bit more nutty gourmand richness from it looking at its composition, but instead i got a very fresh fruity vibe. I guess this could be a flirty smart-casual fragrance. It's projection was decent and i really cant complain about the longevity. I didn't go gaga for it but i'm sure it's gonna grow on me eventually =) U can follow me on YouTube @ BeautyOnSale

The notes make it seem like it might be such a delicious scent... but it's not. This almost smells like new dolls. Definitely far from gourmand territory. There is a slight aquatic fruity note that I recognize from Amore Mio Forever (the light blue bottle flanker), but here it is toned down to just a nuance over a predominantly musky, nondescript floral fragrance. It is quite affordable but I would only use it for bedtime. I like it more as time goes by, but it's not even close to being my type of scent.

For me this is not a dupe for Nina by Nina Ricci. This perfume is very citrusy and a liiiiitle hint of sweet, that's all. It does not smell the almonds or the marzipan either. The perfume of Nina is much more rich and better in projection and longevity. This perfume unfortunally just last 4 hours on clothes. After that is kind of intimate smell you get. Its very cheap but lacks longevity. I supposed that for the price, you cannot ask too much.

Very pretty, very sweet, very cute, but very little projection - but then I bought this for less than a fiver so not really sure what else could be expected, this is not a powerhouse perfume and it never claimed to be. It's a fairly standard fruity floral with some gourmand notes in the background. As other reviews have mentioned, the notes are a little hodgepodge in the beginning; they make a more cohesive argument a few minutes in.

For the price it is really worth it if you're looking for a girly perfume, waaaay better quality than the ones from Body Shop in my opinion. It has a floral-fruity generic scent which I feel will appeal to the masses. It has a decent dry down and decent staying power. If you're looking for a summer fragrance but do not want to spend the extra pounds, go for this. Only thing is I hate that stupid snake on the bottle.

I love the bottle. I just tried this today, and am having a hard time smelling it on my skin after the initial spray. I need to stop blind buying perfumes, I think I have a perfume problem, actually... I do think it's pretty, fruity, and sweet, and will spray it on my clothes as someone suggested. I don't think I will replace this with another bottle when it's gone, but I like it for now.

This scent is fresh and sweet and the lemon and cherry seem prominent. It is very inexpensive too, so that's a plus. I don't know if I would ever buy it again because of its similarity to other fragrances I already have, but the apple bottle looks cute next to my collection of Nina apples. I may even consider buying the other versions of this just to collect the apples. :)

Bought it blindly but definitely worth it. The smell is subtle and not overpowering. Starts off lemony and pretty much stays that on clothes but on skin it soon turns to marzipan cherry smell. It's definitely a fresh, young smell. Lasts pretty well but doesn't radiate much so if you prefer subtle fruity perfumes like I do, this would be perfect.

This fragrance reads "sex kitten" to me! It is a bit young and on the sweet side, but I love the combination of cherry, lemon and the marzipan--it's like a fruit tart for dessert with a glass of rose to go with it. Flirty/girly without being cloying, and I'm also getting a trace of apple? Really unique fragrance with personality.

It smells like a sour apple Jolly Rancher to me. It was a very affordable, blind buy. I'm pleased. I plan on wearing it during the Summer. UPDATE: My husband doesn't want me wearing this perfume because it gives him a headache. I gave it to my mom and she loves it.

i just have it, bought it from online store here in Jakarta. bought it random because it cheap price but surprise with the smell after spray it on my wrist. not long lasting, but hey, no worries because i can spray it as much as i can because it cheap...lol...

i bought this online, and i'm so happy i bought this. i love the smell, it reminds me of a windy-spring-day and the smell makes me happy. this lasts very long on fabric, but not very long on my skin 2-3 max. but still, i love it.

It's the same scent as Nina (Amore mio came out before Nina Ricci). It's fresh, fruity and a little bit gourmand in the drydown. The snake is a little bit scary (lol) but it's a very beautiful bottle and romantic.

I like this! This may not be a well-known fragrance, but it smells totally good! It's inexpensive, and it's stays long on me. Smells sweet, but not too sweet. The bottle is also pretty. Man, I love pink liquids :3

Good quality and also affordable...just love it..sweet scent is my favourite type of scent.

It is a very light version of Nina by N.Ricci, smells good but the lasting power is bad !

Smells exactly like Escada Cherry in the air or Nina Nina Ricci

This one takes me back to 2010, when I used to wear BU's Rockmantic on the daily and loving it to bits!! It has a bit of a hairspray vibe to it and I honestly can't make out any notes except for the lemon, cherry and faintly the marzipan-almond combo. It's young and happy. I can't really imagine myself wearing this kind of scent anymore, except perhaps on a spring-day walk or as an easy spritz-and-go option when running errands, but that's it. It would make a very nice gift for a young girl though!

I excitedly tested this in my local Walgreens a few days ago along with Amore Mio Forever on my opposite wrist. I left a less than glowing review on Amore Mio Forever, but thankfully unlike AMF I did not get the gag-inducing dish soap scent on Amore Mio. I did get a bit of clean soap as if someone had added liquid soap to the perfume, but the initial soapy notes faded to something akin to sour cherries. I disliked the scent but found it considerably more bareable than its sister scent. As the dry down notes emerged I found my tolerance for Amore Mio improved drastically. It is a fruity, sweet and sour, cherry-esque scent but overall nothing to treasure. I must say having read many sparkling reviews of Jeanne Arthes scents I was crestfallen! I do hope that many of her other scents I've looked forward to testing (Guipure & Silk, Fuel Power Woman, Private Room) are better.

I got a bottle of this as a blind buy and even though the bottle is lovely, the perfume is anything but! It smells very musty, slightly masculine, synthetic and absolutely NOTHING at all like any of the listed notes! Also, mine does NOT even remotely resemble Nina, which is see some reviewers have compared it to. I have always adored Nina, which is fruity, a little fresh & caramel'y, but (unless I got an old, stale bottle of Amore Mio!) this isn't a patch on Nina. I've since got flankers though of Amore Mio (Amore Mio Forever & Amore Mio White Pearl) and both are those are so much more pleasant than this original one! Such a shame that the bottle is so pretty but the perfume is a big miss!

Usually I am not a frag snob, and I find that low priced eau de perfumes can be just as great as higher end perfumes, and that not every high end frag is great just because of a great price tag. However, most fragrances from this company have disappointed me greatly and have been gifted to friends and colleagues as a way to get rid of them, because they are so unpleasant for me. This I will use up, but once gone, I hope to remember never to consider any fragrance from this perfume house in my collection again, they are rather two dimensional in a world of so many three dimensional frags. Just not interesting and captivating enough.

The fist time I tried I liked(just liked, not loved), but then I got sick of the smell, I don't like it... Reminds me a bit to Nina, by Nina Ricci (but I prefer Nina so far). The longevity and the sillage are good, as the price. The scents I stress the most are apple (even it's not in the notes) and marzipan.

I personally didn’t like the smell because, to me, it resembles men’s deodorant. It smells nothing like the listed notes, and I was surprised that people describe it as fruity. I couldn’t detect even a hint of that. But that’s just my humble opinion. Ultimately, I decided to gift it to a friend of mine.

I was gonna say something but then I saw the reviews repeating it, but yeah.. the notes really make it sound lovely. When I smelled it tho, it wasn’t great, smelled like cleaning spray and so synthetic, maybe it’s my skin that’s the problem but yeah I sold it again as soon as I got it.

Is it me? There something not harmonious here, a sweet and sour mariage that doesn't hold together. Obviously it’s complicated, discordant. Not for me, or at least not now, it goes into the box « one day, maybe? try again later ».

It screams 'synthetic' and there's no f*** cherry in it!!! And that's what I was so excited about. Huge huge disappointment, goodbye. PS: I can't detect similarity to Nina Ricci.

just ordered it online - cant wait, the scent looks quite gourmand.. UPD when sprayed on the ahand, sounded quite well for 5-10 mins, then - sth sour & cheap..

citrus in an icky bathroom spray way instead of in a bright sweet summery way. :( will have to give away. although.. the bottle is very cute

Mostly lemon and cedarwood to my nose...:( Its a very sour scent to my nose,not even sweet! Sorry, not for me!

Very simple, light, summery. Very synthetic, extremely sugary. It has a syrupy quality, and even the product itself is a little sticky. Sweet & fruity overdose: Mainly blackcurrant with hints of strawberries, raspberries & litchi, all mixed together with a sour touch of cherry & a tangy citrus edge. A zesty fruit cocktail with lots of sugar on top. Reminds me a little of the Flowerparty fragrances by Yves Rocher, the difference being that this is all sugar & no pepper. Has a shampoo/shower gel/body spray vibe, so could be very nice sprayed onto the hair or clothing to freshen up. Definitely for spring & summer daytime wear. Fun, sweet, inoffensive. Edit: I've tried spraying this onto fabric & the cherries really come through once it's settled. On my skin the cherry is only hinted at, but on my clothing the cherry is much more apparent.

Delicious! This is a perfume of such yummy goodness! This fragrance is a bit old fashioned in the 90's kind of way (which is not bad if you ask me) but sweet and girly, without complexity and has a sweetness that I like in perfumes for the day time. It opens with a cherry flavored liqueur and currant, with a hint of lemon juice. It smells kind of like a kind of cocktail drink. A fleeting scent of nondescript white flowers embrace the gourmand notes of marzipan and litchi. There's also nuts and almonds. It's like a dessert the whole thing is the dessert on a menu. This marzipan reminds me of my nana's flan dessert. Sweet and almost too sweet, with a vanilla cream in the base. If you like sweet gourmand scents, this is going to sate your appetite. I also like the bottle's design and it makes a fine addition to the other Amore Mio flankers - i.e. Amore Mio Forever and Amore Mio Dolce Paloma. Toward the dry down it's powdery and soft with the litchi and marzipan gone it turns into a very delicate powder puff but that's not bad. It's easy to wear and casual something to put on for a lunch with girlfriends. Delicious and very likeable.

So, after reading what other people said about this fragrance I went ahead and bought it online. It finally came today and I was so super excited. But I'm a little disappointed. It's not a bad scent. It's just nothing like I expected. People kept saying it was so tangy and fruity, a really big smell of cherry and lemon, but that's not what I get. It kind of smells generic perfumy to me. I get a greenish springy smell. But I cannot pick out any individual notes like I can with some perfumes. It also smells way different in bottle/spritz than it does on my skin. Everybody's skin reacts differently with different scents so it's no surprise to me that i have a different experience with this than some other reviewers, but it's nice and spicy when it first spritzes out almost like pink pepper, then on my skin it falls a little flat. Soft, clean, floral moreso than gourmand. I get absolutely no marzipan or almond. No cherry, no lemon. Honestly I get nothing listed at all. Oh well. Still a cute bottle. EDIT: I can smell the white cedar, but that's not really the scent I was hoping for with this.

I bought this today because i was curious about it, It smells really good ! It’s an adorable little perfume that’s comforting and soft, juicy and fluffy and is most definitely great for sleeping, using as a pillow or hair mist ! The bottle is so cute too :D It has a powdery, fruity, fresh plump scent, kinda reminescent of sitting outside in a big flower field in spring, with a big glass of cherry syrup, a lemon slice on the side of your glass and a lot of ice cubes in your hand, and listening to the birds sing, or gently burying your head in a fluffy pillow that smells clean and fruity. It doesn’t really have any depth to it, but that’s okay ! The sillage and longevity also aren’t great AT ALL but that’s okay as well. I’m still happy I bought it and it reminds me a lot of my very first perfume (Pomme de Reinette by Yves Rocher). I would say that it’s worth buying, considering the amazing price, if you need a quick comfort scent.

UPDATE: [ I got it finally! If anyone wants it, PM me. :) ] The only thing it has similar to the first edition is the name and bottle. The scent is totally different. No more apple. Even though I wished it was the old one, I actually like this one. Its sweet and crisp, gourmand but a fresh one thanks to the lemon. I get all the cute notes listed and the blend is really pretty. Its great for its price and everyday, casual wear. Lasts well on clothes (6 hours +). On my skin it blossomed nicely through out the hot day. Overall, a youthful, likable and tasty (un-cloying) scent. 4/5 stars for being affordable with good quality. Edit: Not at all like Lempika - as some people say its a rip-off, like jeanne arthes cobra copied poison. Lempika is heavy, amore mio is light and they smell different. Total opposites.

I received this as a gift from my best friend. The bottle was cute except for the snake "cap" because it was too poor quality that the coating on the inside was flaking off through time. The smell was cutesy too, lemony, fruity, green, and slightly sweet. I did not mind it not projecting much but the longevity was horrible. With this in mind, it would be a good perfume for running errands and going for check ups. It would be a good gift for students too as an intro to perfumes. I'd say, do not expect a lot from it. Nothing wrong with the scent for me but the performance was unsatisfactory that I wouldn't purchase it myself, now that I already finished it, even with a cheap price tag.

Sweet gourmand fragrance but not heavy or too much. A good intro to gourmand fragrances so if you want to get into wearing bigger gourmand scents like Angel, or like La Nuit Tresor, this one is a good starting point. This is a sweet cherry and vanilla scent with marzipan and litchi. This is very edible and delicious, savory and sweet. I love how this smells. It can last a long time and has an attractive apple shaped bottle. I don't know if it's been discontinued but the flankers especially Amore Mio Forever and Dolce Paloma are more popular This one is a creamy and sweet like a dessert. I wear it to parties. Love it.

So I got this just the other day and I must say it smells good but a bit too mature to me the ending scents reminds me of my mom lol. While my boyfriend loves it I am going to pass. But I will say the longevity is AMAZING. I smell like this all day and I only use a couple squirts. I just wish Jeanne Arthes other scents would last this long. It's a good scent fruity at first and if you like a nutty kind of woody end notes. Well that's what it ends with on me it may be different for you.
