This is my first Lolita Lempicka fragrance and I blind bought it spontaneously. Based on previous reviews I felt that this fragrance was a gap in my collection. Unfortunately that was not the case as D&G Devotion is like a cousin of this fragrance as a citrus and vanilla forward fragrance. That's not to say I don't love it, because I do. To me it's not as sweet as it's made out to be. It is very sweet and feminine but it's not an overly sickly syrup type sweet. I would put Devotion as the sweeter of the two, personally. The sweetness is nicely balanced with the subtle liquorice note. It opens as a cool and creamy citrus and as it dries the vanilla and liquorice appear and melt in to a warm creamy peach and orange. I sprayed this in my hair, as I usually do with my fragrances. I was surprised that when I got a whiff of my hair there was the faintest waft of smoked cigarette. The kind of fain where you spent the night out at a bar and had one cheeky cigarette. Again, a very faint hint but very nostalgic - this does not translate on the skin. It's got to be the liquorice. My husband could not detect it - though he did say it was a lovely fragrance. The box is absolutely beautiful and the bottle is very cute. As a 31 year old woman I would recommend this as a fragrance you could blind buy for a tween/teen as a first proper fragrance. It's youthful and sweet but also has enough depth to feel elegant. The bottle is cutesy and would look beautiful on a dresser.

Lolita Lempicka x Francis Kurkdjian are you kidding me?!? I HAD TO have this! I got it and it is everything I had hoped for and more! Heavenly from the first spray. I keep catching whiffs of it and wondering what smells so good until I realize that it’s me!!! In all honesty, this is an almost exact dupe for Guerlain Angelique Noir. The only difference is that this is slightly lighter and less densely syrupy which, dare I say, makes me like this one more. There’s also somehow a gentle peachy vibe that replaces the sharp green notes in Angelique Noir. I adore Angelique Noir but it is too heavy for me to wear in all but the coldest weather. I am wearing Lolitaland today on the most perfect temperate sunny spring day, and it does not feel out of place one bit. I thought I was crazy, but my husband even asked if I was wearing Angelique Noir. It’s that same dreamy creamy custardy heavenly vanilla, smooth and soft as a cherub’s bottom. This is how baby angels smell. There’s nothing challenging or sexy in here. It’s just dreamy sweet and beyond pretty. It perfectly captures the artwork in the advertisement and the presentation with the crystalline doe with wings and flower on the bottle cap. I am head over heels in love with this one. 20/10 knocked it outta the park. I had very high expectations here and they are exceeded.

god i love this perfume so much. it changed my life with the most delicious madagascar vanilla dry down ever!!!!! it’s super bright and zingy with a bit of pepper initially, which actually put me off the very first time i tried it, but that immediately fades into a ripe peach and warm, sweet vanilla licorice scent that’s soft and feminine from the florals, which are almost undetectable. my favorite part is the pure, delicious vanilla extract dry down, especially when sprayed on clothing. i can still smell yummy vanilla on clothes i wore a week ago while doing laundry. it projects so well and lasts all day. i’ve gotten SO many compliments including, but not limited to “you smell sooo good just like vanilla” and “i keep thinking someone has some kind of delicious baked good or something but it’s just you”. and it’s also like the prettiest bottle ever?? hello?? the little deer and the gorgeous font?? all of lolita’s creations are beautiful, but lolitaland is definitely my favorite in both scent and looks. this is like my little secret magical comfort perfume and i love it so much. i will definitely repurchase it multiple times, as i still haven’t found a vanilla note in any other scent that holds a candle to lolitaland’s (though i am still looking for one that can !! lmao)

This immediately reminded me of Killians LDBS but without the turkish delight scent. This is all fluffy sweet peachy orange syrup! I will say it did take me a few wears to actually fall in love with it, try to get a sample if you can. Definitely not for everyone, but if you’re into powdery syrupy jammy scents go for it since its pretty inexpensive. Fully agree with tomboymaiden’s visual in their review. This turns into a seductive orange creme cake after it settles on my skin, sweet scents seem to react amazing with my chemistry and this is one of them! I also find that the orange/apricot note seems to hang around on my skin with the vanilla, usually citrus notes are gone after 10 minutes. As a lover of cavity inducing fragrances this is a yummy thick creamsicle apricot/orange jammy cake scent. Not easy to pull off much like LDBS but I just bought the biggest bottle they had after using up a sample and have not been able to put it down even though its 100 degrees here. Update: Apparently the original version has a gold atomizer and darker juice (I have the silver atomizer and reformulated juice) so I had to see if they were different, will update when it comes in!

this was such a pleasant surprise! i was not expecting to like it nearly as much as i do. admittedly, i blind bought it because it was cheap and i completely fell in love with the bottle. i was prepared to be happy with it as a decorative piece alone. it did not disappoint at all. the opening is a burst of orange that reminds me exactly of peeling little christmas mandarins and enjoying how sweet, juicy, and easy they are to eat. normally citrus openings disappear on me almost immediately, but not this one! the orange stuck around for such a long time. i thought i would miss it when it finally dried down, but instead it turned into something creamier while still keeping that orangey sweetness. it reminds me so much of an orange creamsicle, or eating ice cream outside on a sunny day. it feels SO comforting and smells so good to me. it also seems to agree with my skin really well because the longevity is fantastic. i honestly feel so lucky to have had such a good blind buy experience with this one. i was expecting to love the bottle, but i ended up loving the fragrance too. it is easily become one of my favourites in my collection!
