Live Colorfully Sunshine 2017

This is 100% the scent I would wear on holiday in Hawaii. The start is very strong with primarily tiare and citrus- more peels than juice. Dries down sweeter but not too sweet fresh, watery, light feeling, tiare-gardenia-citrus blossom-musk combo. No coconut to my nose. Not usually a floral person but I really like this. Edit: Calone should me added to the middle notes- that water from a watermelon vibe is 100% there.

I thought this wore off before I went to bed. I woke up to this nectar, tiare, sun and sand fragrance on my skin. Not projecting but very much there. Very beachy. Like on vacation woke up in my cabana with yesterday still on my skin. I want a fb now! Gotta get it before they jack up the price on this one too! This one and the OG have no dupes, not even in the oils. Live colorfully is so perfect, I can’t believe they discontinued it! This one is definitely worth having- it’s a totally different fragrance but in the same family. This is more summer, the Og is spring. I won’t buy a fragrance over $100- I just can’t justify doing that, not even for my favorite fragrance. I’ll wait til I either find a dupe or until the price comes back down.

This is quite lovely. Oddly, I get no orange or any sort of citrus note from this. To me, this is mainly a floral scent, with the tiare flower taking centre stage, plus a hint of coconut and a few other supporting notes, which steers this away from smelling too much like a soliflore. I have a friend that used to vacation in Hawaii every winter, and bring back a gift shop perfume that reminds me somewhat of this. Perhaps thats why I find this so tropical. I am wearing this in the cold and rainy autumn, but I think this is very much a summer perfume. If you like a floral perfume with a bit of a suntan lotion vibe, try this one out.

For me it's very Spring. I smell linden, gardena, lemon sugar, and aquatic notes. It's a less sharp Peace, Love, Juicy. Pretty but not worth what they are reselling this at. Didn't last that long.

This is like very light, slightly soapy sunscreen (in a good way). The linden blossom stands out the most to me, then the gardenia and coconut, but very subtly.

It's a nice "sunny" floral scent. I can mainly smell tiare and musk. It smells so familiar, like I've already smelled a perfume exactly like this before.

Fresh with Zitrik+Neroli, Orangeblossom is added Unfortunately the base is a bit too musky/soapy. Overall neroli-heavy.

I liked the original Live Colorfully, so I grabbed some minis of the flankers. I thought I’d like this one more, notes are right up my alley. It’s nice, just not really special. Comes off very soapy on my skin. Soapy notes kind of drown out the others. I don’t get much tiare or coconut. I mostly get gardenia with a bit of citrus and musk. It’s nice, I just like the original much more. I don’t see myself getting a FB of this one.

It is a fairly happy scent and it does evoke its name - it smells colorful and like glistening sunshine. This is for the Martha's Vineyard girl who wears Tory Burch shift dresses and Kate Spade earrings. But it is linear and fairly simple. Settles into a soapy scent that lacks much uniqueness or depth. A little headache-induing for me, but heavier florals tend to do that to me.

This is a bitter hairspray mixed with bug spray and sunscreen, and I this is the 3rd Kate Spade fragrance I've tried that smells in this "scent family". (I can smell other beautiful fragrances right now, so I know it's not my nose... I just don't understand the appeal of these.)
