Luxe Rush

"BOLD, ALLURING AND SEDUCTIVE!" "Living a luxurious life with determination is always in style. My latest scent is for the uber-confident woman who knows what she wants – and goes for it. It’s a glamourous accessory, which lets her soar even higher.” - Paris Hilton "Created to celebrate the sexy luminescence within all women, LUXE RUSH is an intricate fragrance with irresistible appeal that captures the daring spirit and utter confidence of Paris." Luxe Rush was composed by IFF perfumer Michelle Defina. Luxe Rush includes top notes of Pink Peony and Sicilian Bergamot. Middle notes are Tiger Lily, Frangipani Flower and Tuberose. Base notes are Patchouli, Sandalwood and Mousse de Sax.(A huge Thank you to Parlux Fragrances for providing me with the info on this fragrance🖤) . For starters, i am in LOVE with this scent and bottle. I was definitely spot on about this being a sexy and sophisticated scent, but totally wrong about the Gold Rush part lol. Prior to knowing the notes, i would've had no idea Tuberose was a note in this fragrance. Everything is so well blended. Upon fisrt spray, i can immediately detect a blend of bergamot and Patchouli. From that point on, the bergamot and patchouli is accompanied by a slightly sweet floral accord and some woods that carries through the dry down. Mousse De Saxe was a note that caught my eye(but not my nose😆)because I've never smelled it or heard of it before until today. According to the Perfume Shrine blogspot, "The "Mousse de Saxe accord" is comprised of geranium, licorice (created with anise), isobutyl quinoline (leather notes), iodine and vanillin (synthesized vanilla). It was used since the turn of the 20th century and produced by the great aroma-producing firm of De Laire, a composite made by Marie Thérèse de Laire". So my best guess is that the mousse de saxe is what gives Luxe Rush it's sweet accord. . Luxe Rush lasted a good 5 hours on my skin and gave about 2-3 feet of projection. Overall, Luxe Rush is a very well done scent and i think will appeal to a much larger crowd because it's slightly mature while retaining a young and playful vibe to it. Luxe Rush is currently available on Chemistwarehouse.com and Ebay. Scent: 7/10 Packaging: 8/10 Performance: 7/10

The only fault I can find in this fragrance is its weak longevity. Otherwise, it's exactly what I was expecting when I blind bought it!! ♡ Seriously, the pyramid is spot on. The milk mousse accord is delicious and noticeable from start to finish. It fascinates me that I can actually smell the foamy texture! Together with the patchouli, they take the fragrance into a gourmand direction, but not overwhelmingly so. Add the subtly intoxicating florals, and the overall impression is more akin to a magic potion instead of frosty cupcakes. Edible, but beware! ...Y'know? I can understand why the bergamot / patch / sandalwood combo may feel masculine to some, but the end result is undoubtedly on the feminine side. If anyone knows fragrances similar to Luxe Rush but with better longevity, I'm first in line!!

When I first sprayed it, it smelled like butter cupcakes---not super sweet though. Then it dried down to a very pleasant white floral that smelled both classy and sexy. You do smell the milky/moussey note in the drydown---It smells good! I will have to try this on a night out and see how well it performs. So far so good. I'm loving that Paris is getting into the more mature scents. I love florals, spices and woods. By the way mature scents don't equal "old" or "grannyish" it just means it's for a more refined, age-appropriate audience. She is finally getting away from the fruity, sugary sweet scents for teens and women in their early 20's. So far the rush line has been a hit. I've loved every one she's come out with for that line :)

This is elegant! Something about this scent keeps me coming back for more.. there is a creaminess to it in the dry down I’m thinking it’s the milk mousse. I usually hate white florals but this is divine.. definitely my favorite out of the line. Does not smell like your typical celebrity scent. It’s a scent for a night out .. but you can definitely wear this for the office as well. I see this more on a 25 year old and up kind of crowd. Not to say teens can’t pull this off (perfume has no age limit). But it is sexy and alluring, leaning mature but not smelling dated. Love for me!

I find this to be safe and classy scent. I too feel the milky/creaminess of this. On me I get more of the milk mousse note than anything else. The sandalwood is the second most dominant note, and I notice some patchouli, but not too much. Anything/everything patchouli always smells great on me though, and I do get compliments on patchouli fragrances. I really like this and it smells way more expensive than it actually is! This smells similar to YSL Black Opium, but I think that one is slightly sweeter and has a coffee note that this doesn't have.
