Love Is On

I saw this at a discount store once and grabbed a roller ball for almost nothing, because after finding a couple of my lifetime favorite scents as blind buys for an absolute steal- I'm always convinced that the next one is just waiting for me on a clearance shelf at TJMaxx...(Aquolina Chocolovers, you left us too soon!) Anyway. I actually hate rollerballs, but when they're so inexpensive I find they're great to try something you might like- easy to give away or stash in a glovebox or desk drawer, or whatever. I prefer to really surround myself in a fragrance. I'm going to be like my gram, one day, with people passing out in the wake of my Youth Dew cloud...(I'm determined to love Youth Dew in her honor one day- that time is not now, but someday, I hope!) I stumbled across a review for this last week, and decided I really should track down a bottle of it while it was still around. This scent is lovely. It's way more complex to my modest nose than the listed notes indicate that it should be. It smells very warm to me. It's sweet and kind of gourmand and slightly spicy, and a little fizzy? Do I smell cola? Maybe a cola concentrate? It's nice! (To be fair- I am always searching for a cola or a root beer note in everything. Sometimes I feel like maybe I'm smelling what I wish to smell more than what's there? But this is a non typical spice to me. It's not cinnamon. I do sense the lemons. They're absolutely perfectly located in the heart of the scent. Honestly, I am delighted at how much I love this very inexpensive perfume in a bottle I don't love (I like it in its box, but it feels kind of goofy outside of the red box? And I'm someone who bought Moschino's Fresh! For the bottle!! So you see I'm a walking contradiction...) I recommend this to anyone who wants to smell WARM, but not cinnamony; expensive, but without spending much at all, and unique, because I really can't compare this to anything and I have a pretty significant collection. I might call her a distant and eccentric cousin of the Mugler clan? Maybe an art teacher? My ONLY complaint is that it's not as strong as I want it to be? I'd like a larger bottle, because I keep refreshing and it'll soon be gone! It has okay longevity on my clothes, but not much on my skin. It dries down almost to a cocoa powder on my arm? I like it. I want a cloud of it surrounding me. This is a safe bet for you classier folks who want a nice scent but who don't want to be able to taste it? It's got all the luxury of a powerful oriental scent. It's gorgeously subtle, but still distinct. This would smell great on a man. I wouldn't call it masculine or cologne-y at ALL- but I would say 100% unisex- in fact I think if my husband put this on, I'd not be able to leave him alone. Nice job, Revlon. Keep it up! I'll buy more.

For a Revlon perfume, this smells very rich and strong. You would not think this is a cheap perfume at all. The scent is very warm and there's a little bit of gourmand note to it. I hope they did not discontinue this because this is one of my favorite scents of all time. It also lasts very long. The price is so worth it! I love the smell of vanilla, caramel, and berries in this. I can still smell the perfume on my clothes after a long day! Also, this is a "heavy" smelling perfume. Not for summer or spring season. For me, this is the best fragrance out of all the Revlon perfumes and it has the best bottle design too. The bottle is so nice to display on the shelves and it's so eccentric. Vibe: The kind of perfume you would wear to a cozy cocktail event in autumn or winter.

Gah. Bad blind buy for me, I was suckered in by the bottle and talk of 'lemons and berries'. Smells cheap and dated - 90s? Is interesting to start, quickly settles into a one dimensional slightly masculine smell. I wouldn't call it musky, can't quite put my finger on it but it's like something from a cheap shower gel. Edit: Same day. After all that, it's growing on me! I really love the first accord and there's a warm feeling to it all, I keep reapplying and sniffing it. .. Edit: It's mid October now. I love this perfume! Find I keep reaching for it, it has a nice heart to it, unusual, and a rich and 'slinky' base! I actually love the bottle, a beautiful rich red. Looking forward to wearing Love is On in cold weather and might get a back up bottle.

This is a gorgeous fragrance and I haven't been this excited about a perfume in a long time. I must admit I am a Rose/Musk lover and this fits me perfectly. Lots of Rose, Vanilla, Musk, Amber and a spicy mix of Cardamom, Sandalwood and Ginger. I'm not getting the lemon or the berries, which makes me query the list of notes above. Love the bottle but it is a little difficult to handle when spraying, you have to turn the nozzle to get into a comfortable position to spray. Longevity on me is good, 12hrs+ and lots of compliments. If you love warm, sweet, musky rose fragrances like me, you will love this.

I just bought this today from Priceline for 30 dollars and I have had a smell of this and I really like it,the notes that I smell in this are the lemon,berries and vanilla with the bit of a woody note coming from the sandalwood,after a while the vanilla is more prominent and the berries are still there,I have noticed that the bottle for this is the same as revlons older perfume rouge but overall I really like this perfume and glad revlon has released a new perfume since its been a while since their last release.
