L.A. Glow

THIS. IS. SO. GOOD. This was the very first ever fragrance that I found that in my opinion smelled so...purple in fragrance language. I'm obsessed with this. JLO has made SO many Glow flankers and this one...is honestly FAR better than the original glow. Also...don't let the "sweet" accord intimidate or repel you from trying this one. It isn't gourmand sweet like Jessica Simpson's Fancy or Britney Spears Fantasy. It's sweetness comes ALL from the fruity notes. It's a fruity sweet...not a sugar cube sweet. It still has a very clean vibe as most of her perfumes do...but this one is so much more interesting and well blended. It's so fruity...and so clean all at the same time. Where a lot of fragrances like this say "I don't know what I want to be," and come off almost confusing or poorly blended...this one just says "I know exactly what I want to be. I happen to wanna be both things. Take it or leave it." SO clean...SO fruity...and to be completely honest...this is also quite unique. My collection of fragrances closes in at around 200 and that's just the fragrances that I own. I've smelled thousands by now. And I've never smelled anything that smells like this so major props to JLO and the perfumer on that! Lasting power only moderate. About 4 hours but with it being so cheap...I don't mind reapplying or heavily applying in the morning. Sillage - Also moderate. About 3 feet. Smells so good that I do wish it were a "fill the room" type of scent. Scent Itself - 9.5/10 Overall Score - 9/10

I just bought this fragrance a few days ago and I'm loving it! I smelt it a few months ago and knew I eventfully wanted to get it. When you first spray it, you get a punchy burst of berries & something a little bit zesty, I even thought I smelt grapefruit at first. But once it's dries down and the big plum smell has settled, it makes way for a more clean floral scent. The dry down reminds me of the original Glow, so I'm glad there is still resemblance of it in LA Glow. All of JLo's fragrances are known for having her signature soapy smell, and I definitely detect a fresh, out of the shower-like feel from this. It does go quite musky toward the end. But overall, I'd say it's a prefect nighttime scent that states it's presence without being loud. It's light & summery with a slightly sensual vibe. Not very unique but nice, nonetheless.

This is like a berry bouquet in a bottle. What a lovely springy/summery fragrance! Longevity is not that long, but I love to respray fragrances during the day to "freshen up" the scent anyway :) I received this for Christmas, but holding onto to it now to really give it a good use once spring and summer get going (up here in NY). Definitely a nice one I can see wearing to the shore this summer too! Such a good feeling smell comes from this fragrance. Overall, can say reminds me of summertime: fruit and berries galore, Rainbow Italian Ices, walking on the boardwalk at the shore with the smells of cotton candy and the sea wafting thru the air... and ok, have to admit cause my daughter gets this: Kool Aid (the blue mix lol)... It's all good though - A fun fragrance worth having in your perfume arsenal! :)

When first sprayed, this fragrance is all cherry and berry to me. It's a very sparkling and crisp opening. It's not listed, but I kind of get apple too. The plum for me however doesn't make an appearance until the heart comes out. It's definitely a dark fragrance. I would only wear it at nighttime. The heart really adds a creaminess, that I believe makes this scent even more heavenly! I really pick up jasmine and plum! Tropical cream? Hmmmm...this must also be in the heart because I get absolutely no creaminess in the base. I only pick up musk. Pure musk. I love the packaging and bottle of this fragrance! It's absolutely stunning! I love how the bottle starts off pink and transitions into a deep purple at the bottom! I would definitely recommend this to people who love fruity florals!

Amazing fragrance! The best from Jlo in my book. For the first time ever i can actually detect all the top notes of a fragrance. For this for me blackberry stands out the most. In a way it does kinda remind me of Britney's Midnight Fantasy but MF for some reason was kinda blah for me (not saying its a bad fragrance its just that its been out for a very long time and it kinda bores me) LA Glow is more spicy and not sickening sweet. I find it has perfect balance of fruity and sweetness .. nothing over powers.As for the lasting power i would say okay not amazing. Over all just a simple yet very classy scent! Just thinking of it gives me chills!! Good job Jennifer!

Maybe it's my favorite fragrance with blackberry, because it's dark here. Also it's very cherrish fragrance. The notes pyramid looks very interesting. But the fragrance is more for young ladies, I think. Also I have a gardenia feeling here somehow, because it has something like perfumes with it in the evening style. Maybe I wish it has less peony and musk, because they bring a little bit associations with bubble gumy Midnight Fantasy by Britney Spears. I like this fragrance. It's yummy. I don't like fragrances by celebrities, but I'm glad to have something by my beauty ideal J Lo.

i so agree with GregorAPBDH, this one so mixed feeling about it, sometimes i love but sometimes just okay, but now my conclusion is just like it, cause so heavy dark berry scent with a touch of plum and floral but so thin, but what i like the most from this one is in the base, so gives me a tropical vibe kind of thing, so creamy and blend well with musk, but for first spray, uoohh so strong heavy, but great along it comes to base notes, just want it for the base notes, hahahaaaa but nice okay perfume and last long time with me, almost 12 hours. well done miss jLo.

Berries, berries, berries and more berries! This truly is a 'what you see is what you get' fragrance, the perfume pyramid describes it perfectly as you start off with blackberries, plums and cherries. Later in the night is when the flowers start to bloom, magnolia is the one that jumps out the most to me. Towards the end is a nice amber smell that tops off the fragrance in the best way. What it's designed for is the nightclubs, and it fits that so well, lasts all day/night depending on when you spray it and the silage is good!

I have never like any Jlo fragrance.. but this one i love.. to me .. Yes it does smell a bit like Midnight fantasy.. but much better.. on my skin its not sickly sweet like MF .. its much spicier..its a very dark fragrance ..i can really smell the berries.. and somewhere i get a hint of floral..but not a lot.. the only complain i have about this fragrance is the lasting power.. its a bit short..but i can live with that!

I just picked this one up today as a blind purchase. I really seem to like the J Lo fragrances. I guess I am a cheap date as I have owned some extremely pricey perfumes years back and I seem more satisfied with the less costly ones. This is a very nice scent. Very sexy without overly being sweet or floral. I just really enjoy it what more can I say? :) Oh and it's affordable better yet!

Sweet, musky and a little sour, the red berries notes are very noticeable on this one. Very good for going out at a night. One of the bests from the Glow line and the staying power is good, but it is well projected in high temperatures, like the other glows (probably because it is an Eau de Toilette). Who likes Midnight Fantasy from Britney will like this one.

This perfume is insanely fruity! Most of the time all I smell is oranges from it though, nothing else! I bought it for my graduation a couple years ago, and just found it again. (I have a ton of perfumes and body sprays..) I really like it, but I just wish there was something I could smell other than oranges. Insanely sweet oranges. haha

This is a sweet delicious berry perfume. It is perfect for Summer nights! On my skin it is like mixed red and blackberries were dipped in coconut milk. I get pretty good lasting power out of it too. It is one of my favorites from JLO! Delicious!!!!!!!

This is really just another riff on Miami Glow or Sunkissed Glow, all juicy tropical fruits and flowers. That said, it smells fantastic and is well done if you like those fruity fragrances. The bottle's one of the best Glow flankers I think.

Why am I not getting any berries of any kind from this? Truly perplexing, I had to check I had the right one. A very pleasant soapy musk with a hint of jasmine, on me.

All i'm going to say is juicy fruits, thats all i can smell, but in a good way, cos i think its an amazing perfume to wear! x

A fruity shampoo smell, fun and casual, nice for summer. Strong staying power, even on a hot day.

Picked this up from tj max this weekend and i love it. very fruity and musky.

LA GLOW is rich with plum notes on first application, so if you don't like plum you can skip this fragrance. After a few minutes the blackberry and cherry develops, and mingles with the plum; however the plum is still the key note. I love perfumes which contain cherry so I was a bit disappointed to find that the cherry is the weakest note on me What really separates this edition from the earlier ones in the Glow line is that the floral notes are more fully developed and aren't 'powdery' or plastic. On me the jasmine is definitely the strongest note, followed by the peony. I couldn't separate the magnolia though. In addition to the florals there is also some lingering plum, as well as a hint of the coconut milk ['tropical cream] seeping up from the base. As the florals burn down the coconut milk accord fully develops and becomes richer, sweeter and creamier thanks to the amber. I can detect the lightest hint of musk, but it's quickly lost underneath the creaminess. As this is an EDT I didn't expect miracles and I was right not to: I can still detect creamy vanilla three to four hours after first applying it, but it's only a hint and is very close to the skin - It goes close to the skin as a whole in little over two hours. As this is light, sweet and juicy it seems like a playful fragrance. I think that this is nice for daywear - both 'me' time and work. Some people may think that it's too sweet for work, but as it's quiet it won't bother over people, so I don't see why you shouldn't wear it if you like it. However I do think it's too 'gentle' for evening wear, or any other time that you do want to be noticed. When I first heard about this edition I thought that it wouldn't appeal to me in this weather - I mean fruits and coconuts in autumn/winter? But the plums make the fragrance is rich and dark, which paired with the creamy base makes for the perfect autumn/winter fragrance. It'll be interesting to see how this wears during spring/summer - The base may be too heavy, but as the EDT is so light it could still be very wearable. I do still really like the original Glow, but the increasing number of flankers became too similar to each other and the line began to bore me. She has won me [and my purse] back again. LA GLOW bares no resemblance to either the original or the earlier flankers; The florals are fuller and more natural and the fruits are juicy and lifelike. A definite step up, although I'm not sure why they didn't just release it as a new fragrance rather than just attaching the Glow name to it. If you liked the rich plum notes in Midnight Fantasy, then you should enjoy this.

I haven't smelled many Jlo perfumes as only Live, Luxe and glow are available for where I live in Australia, so when I read this was like the older sister to Britney's Midnight Fantasy I had to buy it. In my opinion LA Glor is a more floral, juicier and more mature scent out of the two. When I spray this in the air or on clothing, I get a very sweet juicy blast of what could be described as crushed berries. You can also smell the plum (I'm not a fan of plum in perfumes, but this one doesn't take centre stage so I don't mind the plum note). The blackberry also provides a nice tart note that balances out the overall sweetness of the berries. On my skin, LA Glow has this boozy masculine smell, which smells way different to how it smells on clothes and sniffing the bottle etc. I get this really strong amber and musky plum. On me it does smel rather masculine and I have no idea why as it smells so different on my clothes. This scent is very soft and I'd say is more of a skin scent for me as i have to have my nose right on my wrist to really smell it and when I move my wrist away I don't really smell it anymore. I mainly wear this to bed or spray things around home with it since it's so soft. On me this only lasts a couple of hours, I haven't really worn it enough to say exactly how long it lasts but I'll be lucky to get more then 4 hours. This is a very casual scent and I'd say would be best work at night for a date or dinner or something that involves close contact. This could really be worn anytime during the year, but I reckon spring would be best. Can't say for sure as we don't get the seasons where I am, it's the wet and dry season as I'm in the tropics. I'll have to give it another smell in the colder more rainier weather.
