Fresh floral scent but very very poor longevity.

I did not like this one at all during the semi annual sale at VS stores this year. I spray tested it couple of times and it just smelled like some burnt caramel, very smokey and very chemical. Therefore I completely ignored the sale.
Much later, I regretted that it was my huge mistake for missing the big sale, as I retested it from a friend’s bottle (she was so surprised at first that I hated it, and then she really insisted that I should try it again, and I just wanted to be nice). I disliked the perfume probably because I sprayed tested it from a bad and already contaminated bottle from the VS store then (It was possible as so many people touching it and “playing” with it in the store. Who knows what had happened there!).
To my surprise and satisfaction, it was an instant like from me after I retested the fragrance from my kind friend’s. It started to make sense to me because no way that a fragrance that has the notes that I personally like, can smell that bad. It is cozy, warm, deep, dark and sexy enough to my taste for an evening fragrance. It is mature and also not too sweet. I ordered a 3.4 oz bottle online and it has given me the same result any time I grab it or a spray. After all, the price that I paid for it was very reasonable (still much cheaper than the original price in the store, so I didn’t feel so terribly bad for not grabbing it earlier during the big sale).
I also went ahead ordering the Love Me More version and it has definitely become my daytime fragrance, compared to this one 🙂 Love Me More is sweeter, yummy, feminine, very lovely and appropriate for any daytime occasion in my opinion.
When layering both of them together, I was even more in love 🙂

I am not a fan. I now know I definitely prefer fresh/clean smells as opposed to this, which smells to me nauseatingly sweet and spiced like potpourri. It reminds me of overly scented cleaners commonly used in elevators. It does not at all surprise me that this fragrance is composed of only three notes, it does not smell complex to me at all. Maybe this appeals to you, and I wouldn’t mind if gym lockers or bathrooms had this smell, but it unless it really mixes well with your body chemistry and you like very heavy warm smells, I’d skip it.
And I agree with the person who noted it smells very different on paper than on skin – I too am a fan of the smell it left on my paper.

I know most VS Perfumes are considered generic scents with poor longevity, BUT… This one is SO good. It truly smells amazing and has decent longevity and projection if you spray on both skin and clothes.
It’s a highly addictive, warm, sensual scent. My husband loves it on me. I actually really like the bottle aesthetically speaking. It gives my vanity a visual boost with the bottles retro/vintage vibe. I really have no complaints considering I scored the bottle at 65% off during their semi-annual sale.
I was surprised to discover it only has 3 notes because it doesn’t smell basic, boring or linear. It must cycle through the notes individually on me just perfectly or something because in the opening it’s very floral, middle warms up and balances with neroli, and a hour or so into the dry down a beautiful honey drenched amber scent kicks in to sweeten it up further and add even more warmth and sex appeal.
I like VERY FEW VS scents. And the few I do like, I don’t even like to admit it. lol They’re like my guilty pleasures in the same way that Juicy Couture Gold and original Juicy Couture are hidden in the back of my perfume cabinet. But this one really is a winner. I don’t know that I’d pay the 68$ asking price for a 1.7 but it’s CERTAINLY worth the 20-something bucks I paid for it. It’s really nicely composed and if you were to “blind test” it without seeing the bottle or knowing the brand, you’d literally NEVER guess it to be a Victoria Secret scent. Even with the sugared amber note in it that I feel like they use a lot, you’d still never guess it VS because it’s composition is just so different from their typical, boring, barely a bump up from body fantasies body spray scents. Try it. Really. I am not a perfume snob necessarily, but damn close. lol We will call it a sensitive/refined nose. And I dig it big time.

I got this perfume as a gift for my friend. And I loveeee it. The only ‘real’ perfume from VS that I got (fantasies series are not a real perfume in my opinion eventho it has the EDT version – and don’t get me wrong I love those series) was Noir Tease. They are both sweet. But compared to Noir Tease, Love Me is less playful. It’s more… mature and warm. It’s still sexy though.

Starring the signature VS amber note they have been using for years. They had an amber based line back in the 90s and this reminds me of it, but it’s softer for today’s modern woman that’s afraid to offend anyone. Almost an edible amber and I do like the bottle with the exception of another darn pouf atomizer. Come on Vic! Get it together.

Wow this has a lot of good reviews! I smelled it in store and didn’t really care for it (smelled musk) but I should of tried it on I guess because I LOVE amber… instead I went with Love Me More. Will give this another try some time (I have the mist of LMM).

Marvellous. I can’t stop smelling my wrist but if only it stays on my skin.. Whenever I put on a Victoria’s Secret perfume- yes even perfume, not edt- it just vaporize instantaneously! I don’t know if this is just sales girl theory but but my skin doesn’t match wit this perfume. Am I the only one suffering from this?
LegoGT – :
This is stunning. I did not expect something so wonderful from victoria secret. I could not stop smelling my wrist after this. First off I find the bottle very cute but the scent is even more lovely. It is the perfect amount of sweet with a sexy amber. The floral notes keep it fresh but still it is very warm. I really want this but for now it is too expensive. I will keep my eye on it during sales.

This scent is so addictive! I love it so much! I have to say that I prefer the fragrance mist over the EDP. I find the mist to be less sweet and to last longer on my skin. I ADORE IT!!! 🙂

VS is having a sale on their fragrance mists for $10, regularly $25, so I picked up 4. I had 3-$10 Secret Reward coupons to use and only paid $13.20. That’s a savings of $94.80.
It’s really hard to determine scents at their store because of the sensory overload with all the people spraying left and right. I went into a little corner and smelled each test card carefully before choosing.
When I got home, I was pleasantly surprised to smell the Neroli first, then the amber. I don’t really like Narcissus but I don’t smell any lingering scent of it. This kinda reminds me of L’Occitane’s Jasmin & Bergamot. And if it behaves on my skin, it’ll be a winner!

I broke down and bought another of this when VS had their perfumes for only $25 a bottle before Christmas. I just opened it, and this time my sprayer works. Yay! I really love the smell of this, and unlike a lot of VS perfumes, it has pretty decent longevity. The sillage is decent too, as I sprayed hours ago, and can still smell it. I find it to be somewhat unique smelling, and I like it for that reason. I smelled the flanker of this, Love Me More, and I definitely prefer this original due to it’s uniqueness.
I still wish it didn’t have the bulb atomizer, as they tend to break, and I also think the perfumes tend to evaporate out. I have another VS perfume with this same sprayer, and I’d barely used it, but it’s one quarter gone now. I suggest if you don’t wear it often, to take the atomizer out, and replace it with the travel cap that came with it(I have to hunt mine up, and hope I saved it). This latest perfume, Love Me, didn’t come with the travel cap, so evaporation is a worry.

Well shoot, this was another VS fragrance that made me do a double-take. The first time I sprayed this on my skin I loathed it, I mean, hated it intensely! I tried and tried to scrub it off before I got a worse migraine than had already set in. And folks I don’t generally have issues with migraines and perfumesm(my migraines are stress induced). I have over 200 perfumes in various genres, so clearly I’m not picky.
Well Monday there was a sale on rollerballs, 3 for $30 and I had a coupon. Well, I own every perfume that VS currently offers aside from the 3 I purchased that night and Rapture (I dig this fragrance it’s just super seasonal to me),and the original Angel (smells too similar to Coach Poppy which I already own) so I was kind of limited on choices. I went with Love Me More, Scandalous and Love Me just to fill out the 3.
I wore Love Me today. It started out with a hit of the narcissus, which I both liked and hated. From there it seemed pleasant enough but a bit generic. A few hours later though she morphed. I turned my head and caught a glorious sweet, almost marshmallow like aroma wafting from my hair. I was so impressed! And it lasted and lasted.
Long story short, I must have already had a migraine starting the first time I tried this delight. I am notorious for hating a perfume the first time I smell it and then, like a fool, trying it again only to fall in love. Love me is unique and warm with a gourmand surprise a few hours in!

I bought this blind after reading about the notes and reviews, and also it was recommended by VS’s scent finder. Unfortunately the initial smell is sugary, sickeningly sweet to me and just does not work. Good thing I went with the $18 rollerball.
Dmitr – :
Very warm and lovely scent. At first, I felt like smell a tea’s scent, and then it turn out that it was honey. I feel like drinking a honey tea when wearing this perfume. Anyway, only in my little imagination I smelled ginger on it.
arriznell – :
My husband got me this as a surprise, and it was a surprise all right, as the sprayer does not work at all! I’ve had decent luck with these VS sprayers in the past, but was always worried because I’ve read a lot of reviews of people that have had issues with them. Mine wouldn’t work right out of the box, and all my fussing with it only produces a couple sprays, then even that stopped. Now, I’m familiar with how you have to twist the top, as these sprayers generally have an on/off type twist top, but mine is just clearly defective.
I do really like the perfume, but my bottle is going back to the store, and I’ll test the next bottle before I walk out with it.

Sexy and lovely! Feminine, yet slightly edgy. The amber isn’t heavy, just warm and lovely.
myzoska – :
I really enjoy this perfume, it reminds me a lot of Loverdose but softer, sweeter, and more sensual. Unfortunately for me it sits very close to the skin and only lasts about 2 hours- it’s like a fleeting dream. 🙂 Love the smell but am disappointed with its longevity.
robert0704 – :
Smelt this is the store the other day.. smelt really good so I spritz some on my arm.. I have NO idea why but i smell anise in here and its not even in the composition… almost smells similar to Loverdose on my skin… so weird. Love it still.. could be used for layering, LOVE the mist, very strong and can bring it with on the go!

Now THATS sexy! Only 3 notes for such an amazing scent? VS has stepped up their game. Havent bought a VS perfume since 09 and with this one they convinced me to invest in a bottle. I haven’t smelled anything more amazing than this. As time passes by it gets better and better on my skin, every stage of this perfume is beautiful.
cst781Unlogrere – :
This perfume is absolutely lovely! It might even become my replacement for Vera Wang Princess which is my signature scent. It’s floral but also very warm & romantic & sweet. & also I love perfumes with amber in it!
Dof – :
went to VS to buy panties, but of course, I had to also smell all of the scents and I stumbled upon Love Me because I knew I had never seen it before – it smells amazing! Very fresh and amber, it’s a darker sweet smell. Like a dark red, or black rose. I loved it so I purchased the 1.7 oz parfum bottle (:
kloncdrom – :
I have this but the body mist. I fell in LOVE! This is sweet, warm but fresh at the same time. Mood lifting and just nice! Such a basic scent but with a little sexy spark in it. I bought two full bottles straight up! As I would take this whenever I go to the gym, sweet and yummy scent! I dont like the perfume, I hate the bottle. For perfume, I would rather go and spend my money for something more sophisticated like Flowerbomb or Prada candy. But the body mist…… YES.
empincfiemy – :
I love this scent so much! The neroli reminds me of the incense I would burn as a teenager.
pardog – :
Sampled this one on paper, then left the store to go browse elsewhere. I kept taking the tester out of my pocket to sniff it, and each time, it smelled better. I went back to VS, purchased it, plus the fragranced cream. I have to say… after having it on my skin… it smells different. On paper, the floral notes pop out beautifully, more so the neroli. On my skin, I detect something sweet and gourmand. Like a burnt sugar or caramel, along with the floral notes that I like. I do not like this gourmand note! It ruins it for me.
So far, I’m only using it at night after showering, hoping that this gourmand note grows on me.
I have to say though… the fragrance cream feels nice. The bottle is quite small, but you don’t need a lot. Leaves your skin silky… it just glides on due to all the silicones used in the ingredients. Feels quite lovely!

I’m so happy with this one. I was super tired with all of them smelling the same but this one is generally different it’s not all super sweet and fruity as the others have been. At first it’s semi intense and strong but then calms into a somewhat berry wood smell with a your skin but better smell. It also had this indescribable grape smell. Not the artificial but the grape fruit and somewhat of a cherry tree leaves. Fabulous.
I also advise you to try their other love me products like the spray and lotion. They both are so different. The spray is more sweet and semi intense and the n the lotion is very fruit like and sweet.
dmkapustin – :
At first Love Me reminded me very much of Noir Tease, but once the initial sweetness calms I smell a truly lovely, feminine, slightly floral fragrance that I really like. I can’t pick out neroli clearly, which disappoints me a bit since I love neroli, so I am thinking the daffodil must be the dominant floral note on my skin… Kind of clean, but still warm. It’s not much of a departure from their other fragrances, but it’s really nice. I would happily wear this.
мартышка1225 – :
Smells like honey and a light amber to me, gorgeous and fresh but has warmth too. Not a heavy fragrance but has nice lasting power.

I previewed this a few days ago and fell in love with it, and I just bought a bottle today. At first, it’s sweet, but once it dries down it’s very lovely as it mingles with my body chemistry. It’s light and stays close to my skin. I feel young and happy when I wear it.
