J'Aime

Released in 2007, J'aime (meaning I love) is a fruity-gourmand fragrance, very youthful and feminine. It starts with notes of bergamot and pepper, allied to a delicious lychee extract. In the heart of the fragrance, a floral bouquet of Egyptian jasmine and lilies, in addition to the sweetness of the raspberries. Finally, a sensual base of musk and caramel, as well as amber and patchouli. J'aime is the kind of perfume that men love smelling in women, because merges innocence with sensuality. And although I defend that perfume has no age or sex, this one was made for the young, no doubt. It's not extremely innovative, since there are numerous comparisons with Miss Dior Cherie, Euphoria, Black XS, etc. In addition to being sweet without being nauseating, its evolution is fantastic. The caramel nuance is balanced by the bitterness of the patchouli, while the lychee and raspberry insist on appearing all the time. I leave here two important notes: typically, new perfumes do not present in their sprays any smell and, in many brands, they are put backwards before being sealed, as a form of confirmation that the product has never been used. Although this is not a legend, also is not a rule. My bottle came with the spray centralized in the right position, and by the time I just lift the lid, it has already been possible to feel a foreshadowing of what was to come. And it wasn't the first time I went through this experience. Therefore, beware of generalizations. The other is regarding the color of the product. The virtual pictures show a pink product, in its entirety. But, in fact, the bottle is transparent, the liquid has nude color and only the lid is pink, as a faceted stone with the initials LP embossed. Finally, both projection and lasting are worthy of an Italian Eau de Parfum built with intense notes.

this is my recent discovery and it's so beautiful. playful. cute and sexy at the same time. this reminds me a bit of the little cookies me and my man ate in italy last summer. and then it turns into this cheeky scent that can be quite sexy, when the patchouli comes out and softens the sweetness and at this stadium, j'aime lingers for quite a long time around you, with that beautiful sillage, that is not big but seductive: it's that sillage, that people around you notice without noticing it's perfume, but "something" beautiful around you. and this makes me feel really sexy not because i am wearing a "sexy" perfume, but because i know what's my secret, that makes me feel that way: it's j'aime. i love wearing this. especially, when it's so cold outside like today. still so much snow and ici wind. but then i take a deep breath in my scarf and there it is: soft, sweet, beautiful, playful. warm. and it makes me feel so good.

I really love my J'aime bottle! It's not usual for me to love a light, fruity, floral perfume. I'm really all about the bold, daring, deep and strong perfumes! This shouldn't be one of my favorites at all.. But funny fact, it really is! Why? Because: J'aime always succeed to put a smile on my face. It's my favorite perfume to wear during summer, when ever I have a really good day or are in a special good mood I always reach for J'aime because I know that this little darling will double the effect! It has an impressive sillage and lasting power, whick I really appreciate. Perhaps it sounds stupid but for me J'aime really is sunshine in a bottle. It's a precious feeling that dosn't come often. If you like this perfume category, you should absolutley try J'aime, even if you don't fancy this category (like me) you should try it anyway, perhaps it will brighten your day as well?

This was an amazing surprise for me. Beeing a huge fan of the homonimous La Perla, I tought this one would be a modern and crappy remake of the other one. Oh how was I wrong... J'aime is the perfect step from teenage perfumes for more mature ones. Is sweet without beeing teeny, its light but make head turns, its inoccent but incredibly sexy. On my skin the notes that take the lead are litchi, jasmine and bergamot (the tp notes make me think this perfume is the older sexy sister of Britney Spears Fantasy, crazy right?!), the drydown is gourgeaus, amber, musk and caramel instedd of the usual vanilla is a really perfect idea. Perfect for everyday, every occasion, all year. Easy to wear, easy to like. I wouldnt call it unique, but its definatly a well done perfume that smells perfect. 5*
