Vivamore

This one is really pretty. It's different. And considering Selena's age at the time as well as the age of her general fan base...i'm actually quite surprised (in a good way) that she released such a "zen" type of perfume such as this. This one is good. It's really pretty. And it's not what you'd expect a young pop star to release. It's so calming, very pretty, and a great daytime perfume. The most outstanding note is undoubtedly the melon. And it doesn't smell fake or cheap. It REALLY smells like juicy, fresh-on-the-cuttingboard melon! Then you smell that sweet sugar note, and the white tea note. I'm not getting any vanilla or Lily notes which is fine by me. I'm wearing this as I'm writing this and I already got two compliments this morning and I've only been at the office for 45 minutes. Furthermore...I think I got the big 3.4 ounce bottle for between $30-$35 but that was about 2 years ago. Unfortunately...this perfume has been discontinued and the prices for it now are ridiculous...nearing $100 for the big bittle. It's a real shame but while it's still available...more of you guys should try it out. It's one of those perfumes that would be really hard to dislike. Scent Itself - 8.5/10 Longevity - 4 hours. Projection - A moderate soft. 2, maybe 2.5 feet. Overall Score - 8.5/10 Overall, it's great. And really surprised me. It's calming, relaxing, totally inoffensive, very versatile, and work appropriate. This could never choke someone out or offend anyone's nose. Great daytime perfume, and great work friendly perfume. Thumbs up Selena & perfumers. Wish they'd put this back into production.

I don't know who the hell Selena Gomez is, but this fragrance smells so good!! It reminds me of mouth watering pear and cantaloupe mixed with vanilla. When you first spray Vivamore, you get a beautiful sweet, mouth watering melon scent. I think of cantaloupe, honeydew and watermelon combined. Then as it settles into the skin, the floral notes of Calla Lily/freesia begins to come through, along with the vanilla. This would be a beautiful fragrance for the spring or summer. I don't know how it would wear in winter though. It's a unique smell, for a celeb fragrance. Nothing I've never smelled before. If your not one for sweet mouth watering melon/vanilla fragrances, then I'd pass on this one. The notes above mention, green, aquatic, ozonic, and raspberry, however, I do not detect any of these notes whatsoever in this fragrance. I have not smelled her first fragrance, but smelling Vivamore, is now making me curious to try out her first fragrance and give my opinion. I'm glad I purchased this scent. I think this will become my signature summer scent.

This is really lovely and I didn’t expect it, because at the time this came out, I'd thought any celebrity fragrances, especially those marketed for teens, would be super sweet. From this website, I learned that a lot of my favorites are melon scents, which I didn’t realize, so I think that’s what led me to this page years later. It’s a calm melon scent with a hint of powder and vanilla, a really distinct, unique combination, and I really love it! It’s hard to find (from reputable sellers, I just got a sample vial), but I think if it was marketed again now, with her Rare Beauty image and more grown up fanbase, it would be really popular again! The scent is synthetic, but it doesn’t have blatant chemical smells (a problem I have with many designer perfumes) and it doesn’t cause any allergies or issues for me. The first time I tried it, the powdery note seemed a little unappealing but must have been my chemistry on that particular day because it’s been really wonderful every other time! I wish this was easier to find!!

This is delightful. Based on a sample I was surprised that it landed decisively on my 'definite buy' list - and no regrets. It opens quite fruity (almost exactly like Vera Wang's Princess Night, if you happen to know that one), then settles into a soft, creamy, flowery-fruity-fresh scent that's sweet but not too sweet. Vanilla is there too, but subtle. Even though after a while I can't smell it strongly on my wrists (or at all!) I keep getting wafts of feminine fragrance from somewhere, for many hours. Others can also smell it emanating from me. No idea how that works! I must say, I rather enjoy sweet 'arm-sniffer' fragrances. This is definitely not one of those, but offers other benefits. It's a feminine Spring-Summer 'everyday' scent with good sillage and longevity. Also my man always comments favourably when this is in the air.

Here we go again for round two. I got a really good deal on this. This is my favorite perfume of 2013. I wish this perfume was promoted more. They don't sell this at the Macy's store where I live. I'm still waiting for a body lotion of this, I know it would be great. I really love this smell, I can smell the pink lemonade, the vanilla, melon, and spun sugar so far. I'm glad this is different from her first one, which is my favorite perfume, and vivamore is a close second. I can't wait for what she does next. I know she didn't really support this perfume like her first, because of the problems with id perfumes, such a shame, I really hope it gets worked out. This is a must have perfume, especially if you liked her first one, and you want something different. I think this is great for fall.

This one...I "LOVE". No other words. SO happily surprised how it smells on me. I bought it because I loved her first fragrance, and this one just hit's it. Something so different about it. Never have I smelt anything like it, and actually cannot even compare a single NOTE to anything else. I noticed how it says has notes of juicy melon. BOY does it ever. Simply put..this is a bottle FULL of melon, and grass. No other way around it. Almost sick how heavy it can lay on you, but VERY fresh at same time if you can tolerate it. I have yet to recieve any "compliments" on it. But I personally love the scent. Out of 5 I give this a 5!

So I am in my mid 20's and I am not a Selena Gomez fan and I imagine not her key demographic. However I was walking through sears the other day and smelled this fragrance someone had recently sprayed, I asked what it was and when the person who worked there showed me this bottle I was kinda shocked. It is actually a really lovely scent and it is even on the mature-ish side. I mean don't get me wrong it doesn't smell like old lady perfume but it also doesn't smell sickly sweet like most tween fragrances. It's a pretty,juicy, daytime scent and its unique it doesn't smell like every other fruity scent on the market.

This was my favourite Selena Gomez perfume compare to the purple one. I had this back in 2015. It was a blind buy and I was surprised by how wonderful the smell was. At first try, the initial spray assaulted my nostril with strong fresh scent and I didn’t like it. I let it sit for a few weeks and came back for it. It had changed into an exquisite beautiful fragrance. One that I had never tried; it reminded me of no other perfumes I have ever had in the past. I was quite pleased with this perfume. It was fresh, aquatic yet sweet and comforting. My apology that I am not quite an expert at describing notes.

So Selena probably should have made this her self named debut. Its okay though I like keeping this secret. This opens off with the most fresh delish honeydew scent that you can't think of from your preteen days such as body fantasies or calgon along with white tea. I got worried that white smelled the same as green but it's so much softer and does not overwhelm the scent. This reminds me of a modern day estee lauder pleasures. Just on the feeling alone you get from this scent. Fresh free beautiful. Screams springtime!! It just hit me...it also is a melonful Davidoff cool water!! Love it.

Although this is a good smelling fragrance, it's nothing special nor unique. At first spray, you get a creamy melon. The creaminess being from the tea. It basically only has two stages. Top and base. I get absolutely no floral in the fragrance. Just the melon and tea. Once it dries down you do get the vanilla and spun sugar, but still, it's barely there. This fragrance does sort of have a longevity problem, but not a silage one until it dries to the base. However, I would recommend this fragrance!

I believe this has been discontinued but can be had on eBay for an exorbitant price. The melon scent dissipates after half an hour then the creamy vanilla and sugar come through before disappear after about 6 hours leaving another faint melon note. It's a fun, delicious and youthful scent. The bottle is tall white pearlescent, I read it is inspired by one of her sweeping evening gown. It is quite pretty in real life but be gentle with the cap as the wires are so easily bent

So I just got it a week ago at shoppers drug mart($20 for 50ml,which is such a good deal)in Canada and it smells lovely!!!!!!! At first, I smell melon and tea (mostly melon)and after two hour or so it dries down to sweet(vanilla,cotton candy) melon, which is just right!!! Great for spring,summer and fall use.(might be too light for winter though) Anyways, I loves it and recommend anyone to try it out>_ Actually, I like this one more than the first one(the purple one)

VERY impressive fragrance! Smells like NOTHING else! Very soothing and exotic. It has some citrus and it is sweet, but it is less sweet than her previous fragrance. It has a clean smell throught the duration of it that seperates it from the rest of the celebrity fragrances. Has amazing sillage and staying power. Overall, amazing fragrance.

So fresh and clean and wonderful. Definitely one of the more unique fragrances but in a good way. I usually like super sweet gourmands but I really enjoyed this. I smell yummy melon and white tea which is calming and nice. It has the perfect amount of sweetness. It lasts a good amount of time too.

Happy to see this in SOME stores! I hope it doesn't get discontinued because it is the best celebrity fragrance of the 2010's

Smells like sugared watermelon. Sweet

The word that best describes this fragrance (for me) is "inoffensive." Pretty much every aspect of it. Normally when I spray a perfume - no matter which one - the alcohol in them will make me sneeze at least 3 times. Always. It doesn't matter if it's my absolute favorite or not. This one, however, I didn't even get a tickle. It sprayed "clean," if that makes sense. It didn't assault my nose as it went on. Which was amazing to experience for once! Scent-wise, I was a little scared when I opened it, because it had a faint smell that reminded me of Selena's 1st fragrance, which I didn't like. But after spraying it, the melon definitely stuck out to me. It is not an overly-sweet watermelon (think watermelon candy), it's more of a clean watermelon (think watermelon flavored drinks). A little more on the sour than sweet side. But again! It's just inoffensive. I can hardly smell it on me, I get little whiffs here and there, but the smell of the hyacinths on my desk at work are more powerful than the smell of the perfume on my body. It's not too sweet, not too spicy, just pleasant. Also, it did not give me a headache, which is the other "inoffensive" part. It's not heavy enough to get in my head too much. My most recent favorite - Mariah Carey's "Dreams" - gives me a headache even tho I LOVE the smell of it. I can still smell this in the crook of my elbow and it's been over 8 hours. It now has more of a sweet watermelon smell to it. Overall, it makes for a great "everyday" fragrance!

I don't know if anyone gets a chocolate note, a white chocolate note, but I do and it follows all the way down to the vanilla base. I know it is not mentioned, but I smell it. I can smell the pink lemonade, the vanilla, melon, and spun (caramel) sugar. It is so different from anything I have. You could call this a fruity floral, but melon with Calla lily is an unusual combination. The melon is fresh and clean without being drippy sweet. It sits closer to the skin and there is something so comforting about it. I dont' know, is there something like a fru-mond? Her first one was berry jasmine with a tad bit of coconut, a little sweet. This is something special and I am glad I purchased the 3.4 oz, even though the lips are still in the box. I don't mind the white bottle on the dresser, but the Salvadore Dali lips are a bit too much for even my inner child. I will giver Selena points for trying something different. This is wonderful and I look forward to her next effort. Because of the carmel, vanilla and chocolate notes you can definitely wear this through autumn, maybe a bit light for winter. YOu will probably either love or dislike, I don't know that there's a middle ground with this one. I would love to know the nose behind this, though. Worth a try.

:) :) This perfume has very good blend of creamy and citrus. It's very pleasant and addicting. It's a sweet perfume, but the nice, juicy citrus through the beginning till the end is the most memorable character. Although citrus note is not listed in the notes, it's very noticeable. The scent doesn't develop much on me. I smelled sweet fruits, citrus, lily and sugary vanilla all together from the first second it touched my skin till 4 hours later. But I don't care since the scent is amazing to begin with. This is a real step-up from her first perfume. I did not expect to be impressed by this one so much since her previous perfume smelled like cough syrup to me. It doesn't have much complexity. It's just simple and yummy. I give it 8/10. :) :)

Packaging is my favorite part of this flanker just like it's parent scent, 'Selena Gomez.' The bottle I do prefer over it's predecessor but still dislike the tall, 'vase' style bottle. The white looks so much more mature in a way and reminds me very much of Britney Spears - Fantasy Intimate Edition perfume bottle with the colors. The scent is charming! I like this scent with it's variations better than the predecessor too because this seems to have been thought out wisely for the theme they were going for with being evening. It's subtle but has a slight sultry vibe to it. Very enjoyable.

I enjoy this perfume. Too bad I’m late to the game. To my nose it opens with a sweet, watery melon just like the description says. After 10 minutes a fresh and slightly powdery fragrance joins. This combination is very pleasant providing a soft, clean vibe. At times I detect the faintest whiff of bubblegum or juicy fruit gum. A very light waft of vanilla is there as well. Overall a very nice scent. On me it was a skin scent, stayed very close to the body and faded quickly. Because I only have a sample vial it was difficult to get good application. I will try again and update as needed.

"Vivamore" is a very pretty summer fragrance. I was quite surprised that its only composed of five notes. I get the sweetness and the green scents loud and clear. The vanilla is at the dry down of course, and I couldn't discern the melon at all, unless it was melded into all that Tahitian lily and white tea goodness. The sillage is quite moderate, it stands up well with heat and the longevity is great but after the first four hours it becomes more of a clean bright skin scent. Works well in warm weather and with sweat and I like that. Quite a light,lovely perfume. Congratulations!

Reading the notes here is like going through a checklist. Melon, check. Carmelized sugar, check. You can smell them all. This is a very simple, light, fresh fragrance. Despite the inclusion of sugar, it is not that sweet. I am not a fan of heavy doses of melon in any fragrance, but I do like it here. The melon is accentuated by sugar, not doused in it. I find this so much better than her first fragrance. They are truly nothing alike.

When I first smelled this years ago in a small vial I purchased...I didn't like...however i found this vial other day& I like it!!! I don't know if it smells better to me know due to my body chemistry changing....after it settled it was very different to me& I like it...smells a little sweet& just different than the other ,sweet ones out there,unique like a sweet nature smelll different ~ lasts okay~

I don't know why but this perfume reminds me of L'occitane Calanques. Probably because both is aquatic scent. I love the top notes so much. It is not heavy and nauseating scent, more to the calming side. Just like calanques but with sweet notes (the melon). Long lasting too! Now I really want to try her first one, since people said it's sweeter than this one, and I love that kind of perfume!

My elder sister has just ordered it for 2 weeks. She got it yesterday from Macy's cauze we live in Southeast Asian. I can't believe it. It's smelled too too good. It's smell like a cup of melon tea in a top note. After 5 minutes it's smell like a real cotton candy. Yep I really really want to buy it but I'm saving money for my Thailand trip

Oooh lala!! I just got a 50ml bottle of this :) It smells soo nice!!!! I can really smell the melon in it. Its like a very sweet melon overload :D Very original, It doens't smell "familiar" and best of all, All you Perfume lovers out there.. It's a Shoppers Drug Mart (launching today) for 19.99$ !!!! (in canada)

Sugary melon, nothing else. It's like Britney's Island Fantasy, with another kind of melon (green or yellow). It has a bubblegummy vibe too. Nothing groundbreaking, but I thought Selena would make a more mature fragrance and won't stand in the celebrity line.

I have this fragrance and I believe I had it for 3 to 4 years. I believed to have paid 90+ dollars for it because it was rare item to find I still have a lot of juice inside the bottle and I like the fragrance but don’t love it.

This is a light fresh but sweet scent. The melon and vanilla make it sweet but the white tea adds a beautiful refreshing element. It’s perfect scent for spring and summer. Not overwhelming just right.

Nice. Fresh, clean & sweet. But the drawcard for me initially was the spun sugar note which I don't smell. Still, nice perfume.

After my disastrous encounter with Selena's self-titled fragrance, I was hesitant with Vivamore. However, this ended up being a fresh and airy melon scent, simple in comparison to its predecessor. I mainly pick up on the melon and tea notes. As it dries down, something more floral comes out. I don't really get the spun sugar or Tahitian vanilla, but that might just be the age of the decant lol. I find that smells very similar to Clean Reserve's Brilliant Peony, has a bit of that watermelon Jolly Rancher-ness to it. This lasts much longer than its original but similarly has no projection. Pleased with this one overall, but I think I would rank it higher if it didn't feel like something I've already gotten my nose on.

Sweet fruity young girl's perfume, but if you're into melon scent you'll definitely love this, the opening is sweet sugary melon like a melon tanghulu with a little sourness to it, the dry down is a beautiful musky fresh scent suitable for spring/summer days

The opening Blissful Fantasy melon white floral. Dry down Cool Water aquatic ozonic 90s. Not very stong, definitely wouldn't be as stong as if you work those 2 cheapies together.

based on all the reviews here, I was expecting Vivamore to be more pleasant smelling than the original Selena Gomez fragrant. It didn't go that way with me. I guess I am the minority here. Although Vivamore is not a repulsive fragrant, there is more of a chemical smell to it than SG perfume. I can't pin point what it is. Maybe it's the ozone top note that gives it a bitter taste detergent soap like quality. It is more sophisicated matured perfumey type of smell. Not old, just more matured than Selena' first perfume. It is not a foodie gourmand. I don't smell any melon. More chemicals , floral, herbals (tea) combination with a slight creamy base. If you like to smell like tea, grass, or botanical greens, go for it! As for me, this fragrant makes me nauseous for some reason.

I love unique fragrances, I adore Selena Gomez first fragrance, so I bought a bottle of Vivamore years ago when it was first released. Now I am one who is fascinated with quirky perfume notes but I can honestly say that Vivamore was one of the worst fragrances that I had ever smelled. I don't know what it was in this fragrance that I found so off-putting but I really tried to wear it several times and each time it was a misery to me. It was synthetic, acrid and a total mess to my nose. I ended up throwing an almost full 3.4 oz bottle away. Now I wish that I would have kept it I could have sold it. I wish I could have smelled the melon and some of the beautiful notes that others have described here.

The concept sounds interesting - cool, watery top over a warm, sugary base - but didn't work for me. Instead of adding depth to the top and lift to the base just kind of smelled like a mishmash that didn't know what it wanted to do. Like some other less expensive perfumes has a synthetic, liquid hand soap quality. On the other hand, both my co-workers loved it and wanted to know what it was so take that as you will. I don't consider this a scrubber but I won't be adding it to my wardrobe.

a little bit like a time machine - i smell like i just washed my hair with Agree shampoo (the green one) and used B&BW Cucumber Melon lotion.

I really wanted to like this, because it has almost everything I love, all in one big tacky bottle: Aquatic, ozonic, fresh, sweet, vanilla, yum! But on my skin, it was super sugary sweet melon overload, and it hasn't really changed at all over the past 5 hours I've been wearing it. I was just hoping to smell more tea and vanilla. Though it does have a certain creaminess which must be the vanilla coming through. I'm not sure what it is about this perfume that I don't like. I guess you could say I find it a little boring. Just the same sugary melon-ness for hours. It's missing something. I'm not sure what, but needs another note to balance out the sweetness and give it a little bit of an interesting kick. Overall, it's not a bad smell, I love melon really, but it's too sweet and linear. I'm going to try this one out again later in the year to see if I've changed my mind, the notes just look too good to me to give up on it already!

I definitely like this way better than Selena’s first perfume. It smells like sweet fresh melons. I personally like to layer it with the Victoria’s Secret body mist “bare vanilla la crème” to bring out more of the spun sugar and Tahitian vanilla notes since it’s lacking in the fragrance. (Not saying as a complaint. This is an aged perfume. I’m sure when it first came out, maybe those notes you could pickup better on. They just need a little freshing up). I have no complaints. My boyfriend complimented it once. It’s a nice, fresh,and sweet fragrance that wouldn’t be too offensive.

I was with my girls trying different perfumes, which, weren't really different. So many smelled the same! This one, however, stood apart. It opened up with a soft watermelon, but not too sweet in a tween-age perfume way. The spun sugar was definitely there too, and became more noticeable during the dry down, as the the watermelon notes faded a little. Fresh, aqua, watermelon, and a bit of spun sugar, summer-time, ocean side smells. Nothing overpowering yet lasts a long time. A nice fresh perfume for a hot summer night out.

Mmmmm...Melony gorgeousness with a creamy base. I was lucky enough to win this in a giveaway (along with lots of other lovely goodies..) from CaledonianChic77. I wore it last night and every time I took a sniff of it, it took me back to my late teens and spending long summer days on the beach near where I live..not that I had a perfume that smelt like this back then, but just something about it, in that way that scent evokes a fleeting "feeling"of a memory.. Love it.

This is really basic, but pleasant. To me, it's very similar to Bath & Body Works Cucumber Melon-- which makes me sick after OD-ing on it in high school and later working at B&BW. I do get the drydown of tea and vanilla, which I like... But it's just too basic. Melon tea. Would make a lovely room freshner/scent. I may have to try that! It did last about 2+ days on fabric. Very light and summery, I will wear it. I got a 3.4 bottle for $20 on ebay, new in the box.

Finally something different than a Flowerbomb sister scent from a Celebrity. I like those but there are so many already. This is actually very nice. It's a beautiful, soft, fresh, sweet but not in a cloying way, youthful, non offensive floral. I'm not really into florals but this is very well done. It's a great floral for women like me that are not really into florals or consider them too mature or old.

I got a sample of it as I was curious of the young celebrity fragrance. I must say that on first opening it was pure D&G Light Blue on my skin. Then the notes turned into cucumberish smell as opposed to citrus like in D&G LB. I liked it, but not loved it. Very inoffensive, pleasant smell. Gave the sample away to a person in love with Light Blue, and she loved Vivamore as well. Obviously.

This actually smells really really good! i wasn't sure about it but it is amazing, the bottle i think is adorable, might have been a little tacky in the purple but in white, it's cute! it smells like melon tea and pink lemonade kind of or like a the passiontea lemonade at starbucks! it dries down to a very sweet vanilla-sugery smell which is awesome :)

oh-so-much melon!!!! like a melon snow cone. actually, it isn't a huge throw from her original. this one is more 'mature' - less sweet, more watery, but that nutty coconut note is still detectable in this one (even though it isn't listed) longevity is somewhat non-existent. i drenched myself in this 2 hours ago, and can only detect a trace of it now.

Vivamore is a very light and pretty summer fragrance! It reminds me of a discontinued Maurice's fragrance called MyLui. I thought I smelled pineapple in this with white flowers, but maybe it was melon...I don't know, but this is very feminine...and not sharp or cloying at all for me! Good scent for every day in the warmer months.

Warm cucumber That is what comes to mind whenever I wear this scent. I actually really enjoy this perfume, I think it's great for those easy going days where you just want something to throw on, and not have to think about it to much. Defiantly not a "Night on the town" fragrance, but non the less comes in handy all the time

This is a better version of island fantasy. Island has a harsh note all the way through the scent but this doesn't, where island fantasy is harsh this is creamy so much much better. They do smell the same only this is creamy & more enjoyable to my nose
