Parlez-Moi d’Amour

I first had a whiff of this at a shop selling rejected perfumes (ie cracked/mislablled bottles). It smelled very lovely, and lingered on my dress after. But since I was doubtful of whether the perfume they were selling were genuine, I set out hunting for a brand new bottle. Found it today finally, and impulsively bought it. I still love it second time smelling it because, it was light, floral and fruity all at once. Not cloyingly sweet like most floral/fruity scents, it is subtle yet unique. I've not smelled anything similar. At first whiff you get a candy-like sweetness then it dries down to a more mellow, rosy musk. The character of the scent is innocent and sweet, like a first love. I do get that booze-y smell people keep mentioning, but it is not at all unpleasant. I suppose I love this scent because like me, I like subtlety and I don't like putting myself in the spotlight. And while I love things sweet and floral, I don't like it if it's too ovwerwhelming. So this subtle, sweet smelling fragrance is perfect for me. And may I add, this smells nothing like Chloe. Soft and sweet yes, but not the same deep muskiness like Chloe. Parlez-moi d'amor has a slightly sharp tang that mellows into sweetness on your skin.

Oh gosh I love this perfume! This must be my greatest perfume crush for a long time. It's strong but not suffocating, fresh but sweet and feminine but not overly girly. In other words it's a perfect spring scent! I love blueberry in every form. I love the scent in products, I love to eat them and I even love the artificial flavor in edible things. My love for blueberry was the first thing that attracted me. I first received a 10ml mini, but as soon as I saw a full 50ml bottle on sale I grabbed it and haven't regretted it for a day. I mostly smell the gorgeous blueberries. They're so juicy! Then the rose, yum. The musk is under there somewhere too. Not much patchouli and I could say that even a patchouli hater could do this lovely frag. And did I mention the bottle? Is so darn cute! I absolutely adore it, the envelope with the stamp and some sweet words in the stopper. Parlez-Moi d'Amour is not my perfect scent, but at the moment it sure is close! I am so obsessed with this that I'm hoping to get all the flankers as well.

I did a blind buy edt 10 ml version and ohhh ...what a pleasant surprise. It smells like fields of flowers, flower bouqet, garden full of roses or when you walk late evening close to blooming jasmine plant and smell something devine. I clearly catch roses and jasmine. It is deep flowery scent. Bit sweet but not fruity or gourmand. It is so well balanced, so romantic so feminine but strong same time. Not girly for sure. Its for mature woman who is able to see the beauty all around and beautiful herself inside and out. Because of rose could seem bit soapy but I love it because it gives feeling of freshness. Just great! Im so so so surprised and happy. I sniffed many market perfumes and is hard to impress me. I will get bigger botle for sure and will try edp version which has bit different sweeter notes. Edit. After some time it got too strong and that pleasant.

Finally got my hands on this fragrance, and I love it. I gets lots of blueberry, and that is something I have never encountered before, and I love how it smells on the opening paired with the citrus. The blueberry does die down, and it flows nicely into the heart. This is a sweet powder bomb kind of fragrance, and you are either going to dig it or detest it. Personally, I do not like to attach an age group to a fragrance, but I must say that I find this one to be on the romantic, fun and frilly side. The sweetness of it is actually not youthful in my opinion...it's more on the seductive side of sweet. My husband LOVES this perfume on me, and when I wear it, I have a hard time getting out of the house in a timely fashion if you know what I mean... Hint hint wink wink.

This is my first scent from this line by Galliano and I love this! This is a lovely playful berry scent which has just the right amount of ginger and bergamont in it to compliment the berries, still keeping this sweet but not at all too sweet. The rose in this also keeps this from becoming too sweet and gives this one a lovely cool undertone. I don't quite get the comparison to Escada summer scents, since in my opinion this is way more classier and well balanced. Not sugary sweet at all. I might compare this one to YSL Mon Paris, but again this is not as sweet as Mon Paris. Just a lovely fresh berry scent with some rose and ginger in it. Sufficiently different from other berry scents out there and has a nice edge to it. Once more: just lovely!

I went shopping for my 21st birthday last year with my boyfriend and I decided that I wanted to try a new perfume that I've never used before for the occasion. I wanted a nice scent that has a lasting feeling to it. Spent a long time with my boyfriend smelling and testing perfumes out. And just as I thought I found one, was cuing up to pay I saw Galliano's perfume bottle from the check out desk and honestly at first glance I fell in love with the bottle; went up to it to give it a test and OH MY LORD!!! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE SCENT!!! It's girly but not too girly and not too strong and boyfriend agreed that it was really nice and since then I've used it ever since. Absolutely adore this fragrance~! ♥ ♥ ♥

Now I might not have the best opinion of John Galliano himself, but I acknowledge his talent as a designer. And I'm willing to ignore the advertisement and focus solely on the fragrance for this review. I was pleasantly surprised by this perfume, as I expected a very bold scent when first trying it. But Parlez-moi d'amour is actually a very tame and balanced composition. I'm very much smelling the rose note in this one, with only touches of blueberry and musk. I normally dislike patchouli, but here it was used in a measured amount. A wonderful warm, flowery scent. The lasting power surprised me for an EdT, I have been wearing it for over six hours now and it's still clinging to my skin.

Oh my god!! I love this!! The first time, I tried it, I thought: " well, another fruity floral for young girls" Yes, it is floral. Yes, it is fruity. But it's also very special I think. In my opinion this is a very personal scent. Very youthful, fun but with a lot of "innocent character". I love Rose-scents and I like blueberry, so it's a win-win for me ;) It's my cup of tea and I instantly added it to my "Favourite-shelf". That said however, if you're looking for something serious or grown-up or very sophisticated I don't think it's the perfect perfume.. :) LOVING IT

Out of the many fragrances that I have, this is the most complimented one! This GORGEOUS bottle is what reignited my love for perfume...On to the scent description: Honestly it is a very easy to wear no fuss kind of perfume! Woody Blueberry shampoo, resting on bare tree branches. Very simple & pretty scent that many appreciate!...I would also compare this to Miss Dior Absolutely Blooming.

This is so sweet n nice, I just have to love it! Edt is totally different from this. And I don't know why but some weird way this reminds my about one My Little Pony what I have when I was child. There were light sweet strawberry scent in it. Even though in this edp shouldn't be any strawberry! Hmmm.... Any way. I have to have it soon! Im enamored in this <3

Mmmh smells really delicious. Light, fruity and sweet (but not sickingly sweet), rosy scent. The rose smells very nice in this scent. Perfect spring and summer fragrance. Personally I don't smell blueberry, just fruit, but that might be me. The bottle is to die for! Wouldn't mind getting this as a gift. It's a very romantic scent.

I want to try this perfume its sounds good like other people have said is taylor mosmen really the right girl to be the face of this perfume but anwayz she looks really good in the advert not bad after all but i dont really like taylor much i dont really know anything about her!!!!!!!!!!!!!! besides the fact shes in gossip girl.

I'm so glad I picked this scent to remind me of the first months I had together with the love of my life. None of the more expensive or popular scents in the store smelled nearly as amazing as this. Love from the first sniff. Absolute favourite of all time. Gotta love the blueberry-rose mix :)

The bottle & packaging are unique & lovely. A very feminine fragrance. Sweet but nothing comparing to Angel! you can not possibly like or adore it. I wasn't a Galliano fan but I must admit this man is a genius. Dior has made a huge mistake not renewing his contract

........Just bought myself a bottle today! I fell in love with it straight away...yes, it is sweet, and girly....and young...but it smells like a burst of summer to me :o) I love the fruits...the rose lingers on with the musk....it mellows beautifully..... :o)

I love love this perfume and used it for 2 summers already. The smell is so fresh and lovely, a 'sweet girl' type. I like the bottle too. Simple but with a little romantic touch. Price wise it is also good value. The only pity is that it does not last long.

This is a characteristic rose, with juiciness given to it by the blueberry. The ginger just makes it fresh and spicy in the sillage. Non linear, the bottom notes of patchouli add a depth to this otherwise angelic and innocuous romantic fragrance. Love it!

Honestly, from my point of view this fragrance is amazing! The most intensive notes are rose and blueberry, which make the fragrance fruity-floral! This unforgettable mix smells wonderful! I advise it to everyone who loves fruity/floral scents!

I absolutely adore this fragrance. I am not a fan of floral scents but the mix of blueberries and roses together, is so romantic. I would definitely wear this scent on a date. The bottle is also very cute and I love having it on my dresser.

smells like a bouquet of fresh roses and bonbons! then it becomes creamy and musky. soft and romantic scent, definite like! good lasting power 5-6 hours.

I absolutely ADORE this sent! It's definitely one of my favorites. I have worn it in winter, so it reminds me of christmas a lot! In love! <3

very classical floral scent, tho' very well designed inside the bottle and outside the bottle! romantical and inspiring, loved it! *o*

BEST perfume so far, much better that other John Galliano Perfumes. Sweet fruity floral but not sickening , excellent lasting power...

Parlez-Moi d’Amour is quite a disappointment, especially when you compare it with the other two John Galliano’s fragrances, however, apart from that, Parlez-Moi d’Amour isn’t too bad at all as a fruity perfume. The start is just fresh blueberry! Real blueberries hit you on the face with some more freshness (I think it must be the ginger note). When I say real blueberries, I mean it, as in I don’t really smell much from the perfume for about 5 minutes, and similar to when you just smell blueberries from the punnet. Soon after the nearly-non-perfume-smelling phase, it gets really fruity, and sweet, I agree it can be easily be mistaken as an Escada perfume. It is really juicy, sweet, fruity salad kinda juicy. It would please the current sweet-fruity loving trend, and personally I wouldn’t mind to wear it in really small doze. Later on some floral aspect comes in and softens the whole scent, which is rather nice, but somewhat this scent at this stage just reminiscent those overly scented fruity erasers many of us from an Asian culture might’ve bought during the early 90s. It’s lovely, it’s nearly edible, and you just can’t stop smelling it because it’s somewhat addictive, but you know that’s not the real fruit scent, and it’s not good for you. The final dry down is rather nice, it has the nice soft slightly inky musk hint in it, really similar to Jeanne Lanvin’s dry out. Talking about which, I find Parlez-Moi d’Amour is like a blueberry sister of the raspberry Jeanne Lanvin, and Parlez-Moi d’Amour is slightly less bubbly or energetic. Even though I don’t really like druggie John Galliano, Parlez-Moi d’Amour isn’t that outstanding, but I have to admit the quality of this perfume surpasses many other floral fruity nice girly perfumes out there. Nice scent for floral fruity lovers.

Just finished that bottle. The opening is very warm - rose with the sourness of blueberry. Those two notes have the primacy, the fragrance is linear, the sexiness and femininity stay since the beginning till the ends invariably. Although, the life span is not that long. When I smell Parlez-Moi d'Amour I can imagine a very brave and bold woman, conscious about her feature. It smells like golden autumn, with dry leaves on the ground, with sun rays shining modestly on the paler and paler face. The bottle - the concept of golden envelop with a postal stamp. Very firm and heavy. Also small and joyful detail of cap - beautiful cursive handwriting. It gives the appearance of a personalised product. Since the very beginning, I liked that scent. I used it within one year (which is extremely fast as it comes to my speed) which emphasise that fact. However, since some time scent smells worse and worse, it's sourer and doesn't smell as it used to.

Very sweet, fresh and cute. Very much on the fruity side of life. I agree, not quite the scent to describe Taylor Momsen... It doesn't smell expensive, but therefore it also is not super expensive. I quite like the drydown actually, it gets a tad more floral and interesting, I suppose it has something to do with that cypress I have never smelled before. The bottle is a keeper too, very pretty with the little post-stamp on it. Quite mainstream and isn't that impressive, but I had expected something worse from reading the reviews here! Probably they have expected better since smelling the other John Galliano fragrance, which I actually don't like that much. So if you was not crazy about the other extravagant John Galliano's, don't let that keep you from trying this one.

This perfume was a blind-buy for me, because I found a really good offer online. I like it, but I don't love it. On my skin, it smells like raspberries and sugar-coated roses - not a bad combination, but maybe a tad too sweet for my liking. The jasmine is well hidden. I can sense some shy patchouli in the background. There is also a bit of ginger in there, but it disappears too quickly to make an impression. This perfume might be the sweetest scent in my collection - so much so that I am left with the sensation that I just swallowed some sweet cough syrup if I smell it directly from my wrist. I believe that this scent might be perfect in the colder months, but during summer it could be a bit too much. The sillage and longevity are really good, so I can't complain.

Pure joy. This POW-der bomb really does smell like scented stationery! Punchy nostalgia in a bottle. Having grown up in an era when letter writing was essential for keeping in touch with distant friends I exhausted many scented stationery sets! I am surprised I'm thoroughly enjoying smelling like a pretty letter from another time. Maybe that's it, my attachment to a forgotten trend. Endearing notes of efflorescent rosy woody musk with a fruity twist. The blueberry is not the wet juiced variety I experience in Hanae Mori, more dehydrated/dried inline with the overall finely milled theme. Parlez-Moi d'Amour: evocative longing...

This was a blind purchase. At first I loved it, It was winter so this sweet scent was not disturbing me. But when the spring came, it started to be too sweet for me so I stopped wearing it. My 17 years old sister loves it, so I ́m glad it wont stay uselessly on the shelf :) I LOVE the bottle, french envelope with beautiful stamp and it has beautiful golden cap with written "And this is why I ́m writing to you my love..." I like the EDT version more than EDP-which is synthetic sweet and fruity scent. 6/10

I loved this perfume so much when I first tried it, and my boyfriend even mentioned he liked it on me. I got a sample, and throughout the day, I smelled something very chemical-smelling and headache inducing once in a while. Most of the time it was sweet and floral, but once in awhile I got a whiff of something that reminded me of my organic chemistry labs. In the worst way possible. I'm not sure if the sample was bad, or what's going on- but I don't think I'll be buying it.

obviously the fruity scent never come out from my body chemistry, i only detect Floral from the first spritz, then it's gone in few mins. I really dunno why fruity scent seems never stay on me??? I had Viva La Juicy and Pink Sugar, those kinda well-known fruity/sweet scent also never appeal on me, so weird.... The bottle of Parlez-Moi d'Amour is way too adorable, i probably would buy it. Just a wishful thinking, I wish I could smell blueberry, really.

Parlez-moi d'Amour, great name. The fragrance is not so great but it's nice and clean. The clean feeling is the most loveable thing about it. Fortunately it's not sticky sweet, just sweet and fruity. Aimed for the youngsters apparently. Sillage is medium, it's not everywhere when you put it on. Longevity is also medium, 3 hours and it's lost. The bottle is absolutely lovely by the way.

Mixed feelings. It's too fruity, too soapy and I don't like the blueberry note. It's girly and playful though, but on me it smells like a mix of detergent and bubble gum, I spray my sample when I am at home. The only advantage is that it's longlasting.

The bottle is sooo pretty. It smells pretty sweet at first spayed but it settles to a nice fruity blueberry finish. It smells a little candy like. Lasting power is about 2 hours with a lingering scent about 6 hours. The smell is cute like the bottle.

No mask in drydown, no synthetic notes, good quality EDT. This is pure happy sweet fruity floral summer perfume, with touch of patch, light but very lasting. I enjoy it; it gives a feeling of comfort and happiness. My favorite of this brand.

at first i didnt like it.but i tested it again i like it.young and joyful.blueberry and musk longlasting and uplifting.but very ordinary and expensive for this one.

A very fresh and fruity spring scent. Sweet but in a non-sugary way. Wish it would last longer on my skin but other than that it's great :D

For some reason the smell really doesn't last long on my skin

i got it yesterday .fruty. i like it

This is a very fruity and sweet floral scent. It is pleasant, but overall I have to say it is a big yawn for me. I'm disappointed that I can't smell the ginger or cypress at all, as those seem to be the most unique notes listed in this fragrance. It smells like many other perfumes already on the market, so I can see that it would have wide appeal. I would say it fits in the same category as Dior J'Adore or Chanel Chance Eau Tendre. I'm surprised by the ads which seem to have a slightly gothic/dark feel to them. It is definitely not spicy or edgy as the marketing would imply, in fact it's the far opposite - sweet, nice and very well-behaved.

19. January 2011 I really do not like this scent! It reminds me of a seasonal Escada fragrances, but even more disgusting. I think this blueberry note ruins everything, as it tends to be sweet, but somehow over-the-top sweet in a vulgar way! Unlike Galliano ́s first fragrance this is a truly mass-market product that soon will be forgotten i predict! Some girls might find it great, but sorry, not me! Please do not remove this comment, since others might find it useful. Not every rewiev should be positive, so people like me wanted to make a blind buy might find it very informative. Thanks.

Knowing John Galliano's first fragrance- which was a very special, daring, artistic and unique composition,his image of an enfant terrible of the fashion industry, and finally seeing ginger and rose in the notes, I really expected something interesting. And I got a bubble gum. I don't know which note it is, but I could hardly detect any of the notes listed. Parle-moi d'amour ended up being sweet, sticky scent of candy and lemonade. I would even risk saying it smells exactly like Valentino's Rock'n'Rose Couture, with the latter being a lot longer lasting and fun to wear.

Oh my goodness, This smells SO artificially fruity which was disappointing for me because I absolutely love the story and the bottle behind this fragrance. I might get it in the future for the bottle but I can't stand how fake this fragrance smells but it definitely does last because that[s all I smelt all day after trying this. I wish that the blueberry and ginger note would go away so I could smell the other notes in this fragrance because those are normally the notes I love.

Use it if you like to smell like a fabric softener. If you dont like that kind of smell then you should pass on this one. It seems to have great lastingpower. I smelled this on paper and some juice must have caught the skin on my nose or the inside of it. I could smell it the whole day. It didnt even go away after a facewash. Since I didnt enjoy this scent it was quite an unpleasent experience but it shows quality anyway.

I know that it makes no sense, but this one seems stronger and sweeter to me than the EDP version. It's very very sweet, kind of suffocating. And usually I LOVE sweet scents. I am surprised that I dislike it, when I liked the EDP. The blueberry is just too much for me in this one.

This scent is boring,too sweet,too insistent for me... I bought this about $8 in Japan. $8 is equivalent. I bought Eau Fraiche Ver. too, that is a bit similar(too insistent) but better scent than this(Although no need to pay over $8). But the bottle is very cute.

I really liked Galliano's first perfume but this one you take Galliano's name off and it could be one of the seasonal Escadas: sweet, pleasant but so ordinary. Not much else to say about it.

Well, I had a chance to test an open bottle at TJMaxx. It was okay, but nothing more, very light and not special in any way. The bottle is adorable, though, but it is not worth $24.99.

it's sweet, fruity, and cloying on my skin. smells like a cheap bathbomb u can get at drugstores

On me - a pleasant shampoo. Not clean, just boring. Why?? ...
