XO Khloé

Ok, so let's say we just take the Kardashian name out of the mix. As that doesn't matter to me at all, if the perfume smells good. And honestly this perfume smells so good. It's also created by a very respected perfumer. Is it ground breaking? Absolutely not. But it is pretty, clean, fresh and very pleasant to wear. I had zero intention of buying this fragrance. It wasn't even really on my radar. I went into Ulta to try something else and just saw XO Khloé sitting there. Gave it a spritz on the tester strip. I was surprised that I liked it and sprayed some on my arm. I left, went home and kept smelling the fragrance on me. I really liked it. Kept thinking about getting it. So when Ulta hit us with that 20% off coupon. I ordered it and have been wearing it for the past few days. It's so pretty and nice to wear. It isn't very strong, but I do catch wafts of it. It's slightly sweet, cozy and clean smelling. I don't find it overly powdery on me. It's not overly floral either. I tend to like gourmands, so was surprised at how much I liked this. Its very well blended and pretty. On me no one note stands out. This is a perfect everyday perfume. Great for work, being home or just about anything. It's not overly heavy or mature. I would say if you get the chance to try it out..give it a try. Don't let the notes or the whole celeb fragrance thing put you off. It's a pretty fragrance in a nice bottle with lovely packaging. Since we are almost in May now, I would add I could see this being a very nice Mother's Day gift. 😊🛍🌸

Love at first sniff! This is sensual, sweet, and feminine while also being aromatic, sexy and unique. The notes are blended beautifully. On initial spray, I get a similar lavender from Burberry Goddess but smoothed out by the notes of sage, praline, and tonka bean. Then peach, orange blossom, and oak moss remind me of something in the same family as Chloe Nomad. The peach is there to make the scent juicy and the orange blossom is soft. No note stands out too prominently to me. The base notes make this scent addicting. Don’t judge this one just by the notes. I don’t have anything like this in my collection. It’s unique while also being very likeable, crowd pleasing, and great for every day wear. I can see this one getting tons of compliments. Perfect for day and night. Gets better as it sits on the skin and envelopes you. P.s. My bottle cap came defected so beware. It still sprays beautifully but it made me sad. Kinda wanted a little more from the bottle.

This is a beautiful and fairly unique scent. It smells remarkably similar to Ulric de Varens’ Mini Sexy, which is allegedly a dupe for the original Lolita Lempicka from 1997. If you added rose to Mini Sexy you’d get something close to XO Khloé. It’s also similar to Butterfly by Bath and Body Works, and Covered in Roses to some extent. There is something very warm in the base of this that the other fragrances are lacking (the praline? It’s almost kind of amber-y to me.) Like Mini Sexy or Lolita Lempicka, this is very much a “sugar plum fairy” kind of scent. I don’t think this would be appropriate for warm weather. It makes me think of a bright, wintery, foggy morning. It’s sweet but the opening is very aromatic and tangy. The praline really comes out later on and turns chocolatey. It’s an unusual fragrance but a beautiful one.

I will test every and any fragrance that crosses my path so of course I sprayed XO as soon as I stumbled upon a bottle. As a millenial this combines the best of all worlds (well, some worlds!). XO is a fragrance that manages to fit every season and occasion without smelling like the latest blockbuster trend. It is fresh, like Chloe EDP, in the beginning with a bit of a molecule fragrance feel mixed in. It dries down powdery and a bit sweet, like Prada Candy (Kiss) but with more wood and a touch of praline (seconding jdb_, for example). It makes you feel put together and elegant. But it really vibes with all styles, I'd say. If you want to amp it up for nighttime, it can easily be layered IMHO. Tested it a few times now, and it lasts really good on clothes, skin is moderate.

I don’t want to like celebrity perfumes, because I’m a snob or whatever. I’m surprised at how much I like this one. To me it has an old-school quality about it, and perfumes like that usually grate on me after a while, but this one doesn’t. I can wear it all day and it doesn’t start to annoy me. This is probably sacrilegious, but I layer it with my Narciso Rodriguez, For Her, and it’s one of my favorite “office friendly” or “totally inoffensive” scents. Reading some of the comments though there seems to be some disagreement the inoffensiveness of this perfume. I can understand not liking it if you prefer bolder, more challenging scents. I don’t understand how anyone thinks it is outright disgusting. Individual responses to scents are endlessly fascinating!
