Chloe Love Story

love story chloeThis is a nice white floral, I can see why it's a popular scent, but I think it's just okay, *i like it better after a few hours, a spiciness develops and some more rose). I cant really distinguish the notes, but luckily i don't get the gross peach scent that other perfumes have. it's not a white floral like Curious Britney Spears, it smells more like a yellow floral, but it does smell very fresh like a real flower. It kind of reminds me of the Dior Rose n Roses, bc it has a real flower smell, but I actually don't like it as much as I thought I would. I think it would be worn any time of year, bc it's floral it'd probably be better during the day. arm's length to 6 feet, but fades some. Femme and good for women 25-100+ years old. I think the bottle is beautiful, but it is WAYYYY overpriced at $220 for a 75ml!!!! Those are some Tom Ford prices! On discount sites, it is still $115 for 75ml! This perfume could easily be replicated for much much cheaper. I wouldn't but or keep it if gifted. A perfume like Miss Dior Absolutely Blooming (although they don't smell alike) has more longevity and sillage. more pepper/sweetness/rose floral.

I had high hopes for this fragrance because people said it's the smell of first love and I don't quite see it. It's not a bad smell, it's just a little blank in my opinion. Nothing too special, nothing that someone would notice. It reminded me a little bit of Dior J'adore when it starts to evaporate. I don't know if the sample in the store was rotten or something, but I only got the white florals and the sour notes. I didn't smell any orange blossom (which I love so much in scents), neither rose, pear or blackcurrant. I usually pick up perfumes that I'm obsessed with and for the first time that's not the case. I think it's missing a little vanilla and that would automatically make it a BOMB smell. And this is ironic coming from me because I never choose vanilla or caramel as a note on my fragrances, but I think it would be needed here to break the sourness and white florals with a little sweetness. Maybe it's the sample though.. I also find it to be a very winter and a summer scent but not a in between seasons fragrance. But that's just me.

Ok so this one was my first purchase on perfumes ever. It was at a huge discount and it felt unfair not to buy it. I blind bought it and thank God I’m a white flowers lover otherwise it would be a huge disappointment. Ok so, this is actually a very lovely scent, just like its name, it travels you into a fairytale. I feel like it doesn’t have enough depth, I mean, I feel a handful of white flower notes, bergamot, orange blossom and…that’s it. Stephanotis is the most noticeable note so keep that in mind. It was also the first perfume that made me realize how important it is to use perfumes depending on season. I bought it at Christmas and it just felt too scratchy on my nose. I left it on the shelf and grabbed it again at springtime. Totally different scent vibe. I got so many compliments and it just blossomed really, I was like a tree blooming lol. However, I don’t think I’d purchase it again, but I’m also keeping the last drops out of nostalgia.

Very late to this party but happy I got here. I love this. It's really feminine and yet tailored. So you could be at a wedding or a formal luncheon but you could also just be wearing jeans and your favorite tailored white shirt. Crisp citruses and juicy pear, a bit sharp - the florals moving in with neroli as the star and settling in to a lovely clean musk - but not the overpowering laundry musk of some of the more recent releases. No vanilla, no syrup, no patchouli. Because it does not have the notes I just listed it smells "newer" than a lot of the latest releases. Can I already be tired of rose? Well yes I am. And it's not here, so again this makes it smell more original than most of the new releases I just tested. This perfume is not "challenging" but it is definitely pretty. Perfect for work this spring and summer and that is exactly how I plan to use it.

I don't get the opportunity to test a lot of Chloé fragrances, but the few that I have experienced begin with simplicity and end with femininity. Love story is no different. If you were to call her a white floral, cedar and cashmeran combo, you wouldn't be wrong. To the opening there is the freshness of amalfi lemon and neroli, other subtle white florals make their appearance - adding to the pure freshness rather than detracting. Cashmeran and cedar introduce a feeling of luxury to this fragrance, but then again, everything is subtle, soft, and lovely. Although this is not my preferred scent profile and I am yet to find a Chloé fragrance I would personally wear, I know I'd enjoy smelling someone else smell this way. A like for the books.
