Relax

I currently have this scent in the hand creme to try it. First, the Lollia hand cremes have a wonderful consistency, probably my favourite of all hand creams. And while some of the Margot Elena hand cremes have a very faint fragrance, the Relax does not. It is very perfumed for this type of product. I don’t find this to be a strong, herbal lavender scent; it’s quite gourmand and not herbal. The sweet-honey note is done well. If you love honey scents as I do, you’ll probably like this. I really love this scent, and plan to buy the FB. Thanks to Stacia79 for saying this smells like Chopard Casmir! I had recently bought a bottle of Casmir, my first in fifteen years (I used to love it and at $30 or so for a large bottle, definitely worth it), so upon reading her review I went to my dresser, got the Casmir bottle, and found that they’re nearly identical! Based on the notes listed and such, I don’t think I’d ever had made that connection but it’s undeniable. This opens up great layering potential, because Lollia Relax comes in a shower gel, and right now Margot Elena has a special on a “skin softening” package that has a dry oil and a body creme (I have this set in Lollia Wish and can say that for a “dry” oil, its actually thick and luxurious, and the body creme is very nice as well, both items are large and beautifully packaged). So I will buy that set in Relax, and layer that with the longer-lasting Casmir.

I have a totally gorgeous 'little luxe'(super tiny actually) bottle of this. I think I was expecting to smell more lavender but its a sweet honey vanilla floral to my nose - quite heady & strong (I have literally put a finger dab on each wrist). Maybe too warm for summer days but I shall test that when the time comes, for now I'm enjoying this very much - it is sweet but not annoyingly so & smells very natural to me, nothing harsh in the drydown at all, it actually reminds me of a Sonoma Scent Studio fragrance at this point, not sure which. Don't know if I will buy a full bottle, they aren't cheap & there are so many other fragrances in this line that I want to try now, even if just for the divine little bottles! Update: Well - I was wearing this scent today (just a dab) & my husband asked me to get him a sweater, when I passed it to him he said, wow what is that smell? Its so sexy (I actually thought it was quite an innocent sort of a scent)! He proceeded to go on sniffing & asking what it was for a good hour or more - this man hardly EVER says anything about my perfumes so this was a real turn up! He finished up saying, & I quote 'I don't care how much this stuff costs I'm gonna get you a gallon of it' - result!!!!!!!

I do love this scent for weekends and at bedtime. It is very honeyed and warm. But I kept thinking I had a similar scent in my collection and today I found it-Hanae Mori! I sprayed on Relax on one arm and HM on the other and noted very little difference, except that HM had more staying power. Relax could be a less expensive dupe of HM if you are looking for the scent but not the price. P.S. I reviewed HM and found it to be synthetic, like a plastic doll's head. But I was all set to love Relax from the opening notes since it was described as lavender and honey. Must revise my review on HM since they are identical to my nose! Edit: I also own Calm. Relax is nothing like the herbal freshness I get with Calm. It is more closely akin to Wish, which was my introduction to Lollia fragrances. Update: I've noticed that Relax is a very aroma therapeutic fragrance for me when I have a headache. It's the scent I crave! Must be something to that name, Relax!

Delicious!, I thought on my first encounter with Relax by Lollia, edp. No wonder, LR has honey and vanilla with floral notes, my perennial favorites. Like others have noted, LR reminds a bit of Casmir by Chopard. Relax is softer than the powerful Casmir, which can beat its wearer into submission. Wish by Chopard also resembles LR very much, W. being a little less potent than Casmir. The lavender note is very floral, without a touch of soapiness or bitter touches. It rounds out the sweet notes very nicely without being dominant. Relax is a cheerful feminine perfume that's very easy to wear. Sillage and lasting power are modest, this one is a skin scent. The floral design on the bottle is very pretty without being too precious.

I love this fragrance. I gave it to a friend for her birthday, and she loves it, too. Unfortunately, I cannot wear this scent. On the dry down, all I'm left with is vanilla and amber, and it's strong! But I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it. My friend loves it, and it smells wonderful on her.
