Description
Popular singer Mariah Carey, in cooperation with Elizabeth Arden, welcomes us into her pink world in a summer edition of her second perfume, named Luscious Pink.
Luscious Pink was arrived at the market in August 2008. It was created in cooperation with two perfumers, Carlos Benaim and Loc Dong, of IFF. They created the new fragrance containing notes of Sicilian bergamot, accords of ocean breeze and Italian sparkling cocktail Bellini. The heart hides petals of Tiara from Tahiti, lily of the valley and pink peony, while the base notes include accords of bright blond wood, sandalwood, white musk, which is a combination of notes described as a floral melody developing as Mariah’s voice.
The bottle of Luscious Pink is very romantic and contains the same form as its predecessor. The creator is Jean Antretter, senior design director of the house of Elizabeth Arden. The bottle is coloured in pink nuances and yellow and light blue contours this time. Commercial was made by photographer Michael Thompson.
The collection that will be presented includes the perfume Luscious Pink in the amount of 30, 50 and 100 ml edp, and 200 ml perfumed body lotion.
A beautiful set of miniatures which includes three gracious small flacons with charming butterflies is presented in October 2008. Purple, pink and golden butterflies contain 0.16 fl.oz (5 ml)of fragrant fluid each and are a real treat.
СЕРЕГА-АЗОВЕЦ – :
I really don’t like leaving bad reviews but this is so disappointing… It’s a lovely smell actually but is so so light! In fact I can spray literally 20 sprays and not a trace is left in about 30 mins. It has the worst longevity in any fragrance I have ever tried so it’s just not worth bothering with unfortunately.
avn001speagoessenda – :
A somewhat mild citrus-fruity-floral. Nothing about it really stands out to me, but it’s a pleasant scent.
Meaid242InsuffBooni – :
I love this because it reminds me of my first fave scent (Remix by Armani) however it sadly doesn’t last on my skin more than 20 mins
4irik4 – :
Its a realy lovely beachy fragrance
The lasting power is 6 hours
The silage is moderate
Aquatic powdery scent
pRofx5017 – :
I love the bottle, it’s so pretty like all her bottles. The fragrance itself is a youthful fresh floral similar to some of the sweeter Daisy offerings. This isn’t groundbreaking but Mariah fans will love it especially and the bottle is lovely to display. This one is light pink and feminine.
Olya Serdyuk – :
Breezey, fresh and sweet and soapy clean. Smells sparkling. Belini is a note, but I dont smell peach, thank goodness, only fizzing fruit in general. My husband says it smells “zesty.” Lasts 4 hours on my skin. I wear this all year. Makes me happy.
kleptuza – :
It lasts 1 hour maximum on my skin and couple hours on clothes!
Love the scent but no longevity for me. Picked up for 20 bucks on sale from wallgreen.
Therefore, it’s not bad 🙂
Gakdavara – :
This is such a lovely scent
The opening of fresh fizzy citrus , lovely floral middle with a smooth sandalwood base
The bottle is gorjus!
But sadly the longevity and projection is terrible on my skin .
I had to respray it every two hours. Just couldn’t smell it!
Ive been wearing it on 40cel days .Maybe it might do better on my skin on colder days ? I’ll keep it till winter and see how it goes then?
Its disappointing as a summer scent for me. 🙁
But it might be better for someone else?
gipersonic – :
This is so lackluster and unimpressive its sad. I just get some fake woodsy note & that is it. No musk, no bellini & def not Lily of the valley(I love LOTV). No sillage & no longevity. This is a badly made “perfume” all around. I feel bad for those that like the scent since its longevity is worse than a cheap body mist.
Brodjaga – :
After owning my 100ml bottle of LP for two years, I can finally give you a proper review of this scent. I find this perfume lacks personality and has a lot left to be desired. It’s a nice scent, don’t mistaken my words, it’s just not something that I look forward to wearing all the time. Some perfumes I know I love because I feel a sense of excitement whenever I reach for it and apply. This one just does’t do it, and I feel its the whole personality thing. When I first spray it has a very light floral scent, it’s a touch fruity however definitely a floral scent. I get a rosey, bubbly shampoo scent. I could compare how floral this is to such scents as ‘Curious’ by Britney Spears and ‘Glow’ by Jennifer Lopez…doesn’t smell like them, but thats how floral it is. It also isn’t very long lasting, lasted 30 minutes before I have to re-apply. I don’t think a repurchase of this would be ideal for me, however if I happen to find it in store for a VERY low price, then I’ll consider buying it again. At the moment where I live it retails for $60 for 100ml which I think is ridiculous as it is an old perfume, and yet M is way better (in my opinion) and retails for $30. If you haven’t, try M instead but definitely try LP before you buy it…not blind buy friendly!

Mariah makes BRILLIANT perfumes Luscious Pink is no exception. Much thought and consideration goes into her perfumes and she sells cheap. Her perfumes wow like her voice at least for me they are some of the most unusual, brilliant, best smelling perfumes have ever smelled.

I do get patchouli in this very clearly
Кровосос – :
This is a really soft, sweet, yet fresh fragrance. Great for someone who wants to smell pretty without offending or overpowering anyone else. It makes me think of relaxing on a seaside balcony or patio in the summer, while sipping a fruity cocktail, with a steady light breeze. The bottle itself is cute, although the butterfly cap somehow fits loosely on my bottle, making it awkward. Price was unbeatable, as I purchased off eBay, just $11 for this bottle and a different fragrance together. I would certainly buy this again.
Idombaddy – :
The bottle is to die for… I love this perfume. it was so cheap (29 € in Europe, 100 ml 3.4 fl) so I had to buy it, and it surprised me a lot. it smells like bellini the most, with some notes that makes it femenine and summery, love it!!!
disiviON – :
This really reminds me Police to be woman, maybe because of that lime. Both frags are sweet and fresh at the same tima. Good for casual wear, nothing special.
djon330 – :
I don’t get JLO from any of Mariah’s perfumes. Both took some time to appreciate but Mariah took me the longest. I just couldn’t smell Luscious Pink then would overspray it into a chemical mess. This is my lesson. Finally just gave it ONE spray one day. There it was. It is soft but I could easily smell that one spray a few hours later. It kept me from smelling harsh chemicals and this one spray trick is working to help me better get to know all my fragrances. Sometimes I’ll sneak two but am seeing that it ruins a Mariah .. less so to overdo her M or Dreams. My point being now I can smell the delight of Luscious Pink. It’s like many of JLO in that it is soft. The Bellini tinkles rather than sparkles. The Tiare flower is like a sheer scarf rather than the usual thick scented suntan lotion. Yes, this is the fragrant color of a soft pink. Prefer this over Forever. The soft ones makea different statement. They can seem more magical. Luscious Pink is like having a Fairy such as Tinkerbell following her Peter and this is how her dust would smell. I’ve upgraded my LP, Forever and even the three lollipop Blings to largest size bottles. They were forgotten and even a major disappointment. Now I have learned how to use this line it is very much moved up the charts. One spray keeps the chemical mess away.
omon – :
Where did it go? It opens with a nice citrus burst that settles into a faint peony and tiare flower scent. A very soft woody base becomes more apparent with lily of the valley but still very light. And then it’s like it’s gone… I’m writing this minutes after spraying it and it’s almost like wearing nothing. It kind of has that feeling of using a good body wash that you still get whiffs of throughout the day. But not like wearing perfume at all. When the scent is present it slightly reminds me of a very dull version of Dolce by Dolce & Gabbana or I agree with someone who mentioned JLo Rio Glow.
vjc989speagoessenda – :
I DO like this perfume…..I got a 30mL bottle in the local everything store and with the presentation itself, this scent is quite lovely, the cap, made of this pink transparent butterfly over a bottle fashioned to appear like an unopened blossom is quite in Mariah’s character.
As for the juice, its just a playful medley of all notes. The entire accord is more teasing, not too assertive at all. I take this perfume out and sniff it over and again to ascertain one note, but apart from the citrusy bergamont and green/jasmine lily-of-the-valley, I was stumped.
Its a lovely perfume for day, and using this fragrance keeps me feeling as if I’m enveloped in a marshmellowy, citrusy mist. Definitely, its not girlish and actually, I’m wearing it now as I’m writing this review. Its not a disappointment and though lower key in terms of sillage, can be a sexy and refreshing scent for us ladies.
scrsnseabrookmtx1 – :
I absolutely love this perfume! Although the lasting power of this scent is weak but I still love it as I can still slightly smell it on myself several hours later after spraying it. It’s really good for the summertime!
frogikder – :
I received this baby in a giveaway and its smells nice-ish. It’s floral fresh but soft and turns into a skinscent on me after an hour after a shower or bath before bed sounds about the perfect use for this or a workout like a previous poster said! Enjoy!
LordMarvin – :
Very light floral, not my favorite blind buy. In my opinion this is a light floral/aquatic fragrance.
It smells very giggly and light hearted in the sense that it can be perceived as whimsical or romantic, not particularly sensual.
Definitely not my signature. I need a more warmth in a fragrance. For me, this brought me back to middle school PE when girls would spray a body splash on before running track.
It feels more like an EDT or body splash because it vanishes like a whisper.
The initial spritz for me was an alcohol like scent. I think my mom would love this as she loves white florals and aquatic smells.
I wish I could talk about complexity more but I really only pick up the peony and lilly of the valley. Then, it’s gone lol no dry down…it’s just gone!
It IS pleasant, but not one I would recommend off the top of my head to someone who wants a “pink” smell (in any way you perceive pink to smell like). I’d call this one ‘Butterfly Whisper’ lol
kpepanyan – :
Such a pleasant scent! I have a bottle that’s over 8 years old and I don’t know if the scent has gone off but it last a good 3 minutes before it’s gone which is a bummer. This scent is a mood lifter and I love wearing it while I workout because honestly, who likes working out am I right??
bf182life – :
It smells so good… for the first 5 minutes. Then it’s gone like a butterfly. ~~~ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ
PeegaindGraig – :
well this was boring. it smells like air,not really my type
kent380ba – :
I have this one together with the M perfume. They are both 100ml. My friend gave it from Australia. The box designs are perfect for me like the M perfume box the bottle is more perfecr bcoz of the pink butterfly lid with metalis pink ribbon. The bottle is perfect bcoz of the shape of the flowers that mariah carey’s love. The color of this bottle is pretty amazing bcoz of the rainbow reflection. The translucent light yellow green gives a lot of color. Specially if u take a picture of it. Box and bottle are perpect but the scents! DANG!!!!!!! 4 words dahlinghh!! FRESH FROM THE BATH! Yes it smells good but why fresh from the bath. Ok i will complain how she wants to give a scents for this one.. But really the longevity and sillage are so weak.. This perfume is one of my weakiest perfume i ever had! I watch one of mariah carey’s interview that she dnt like the over powering perfume. So maybe thats why this perfume is weak. Btw the box n bottle are 10 but the longevity and sillage are 3., the mixing of the scents is good for me. I give 5 for this one..
ogyrin – :
The sillage and longevity is so weak. After i sprayed it. The smells suddenly gone. The drydown smells like soap. It reminds me also of fresh from the bath. But the bottle is stunning. I love the rainbow reflection.5 star for the bottle design. 2 for the scents. Sillage and longevity are so weak.
2094528 – :
This to me is a very light and elegant scent. I also don’t like fragrances that are to floral but i absolutely love the floral notes in Luscious Pink. I was actually very suprised when i read that this scent contains citrus because again it’s done in a really sophisticated and elegant way and to me it smells like peach in the top notes not of citrus even though there’s no peach in it. I wear this when i want something light but still beautiful it’s definetly a very classic and fresh airy scent.
only_julia01 – :
I really enjoy this scent. It is quite light for a perfume containing musk, so it does almost nothing to my sinuses. The scent itself is also light…on me, the tiare flower and lily of the valley are the prominent scents (everyone’s chemistry is different, naturally). The sillage is soft, but noticeable. Like many others, I just wish the sillage remained longer. The scent tends to literally remain only skin tight after 3 hours, at least on me.
Nomneisem – :
This is wonderful. It smells like a peach version of Jennifer Lopez’s Rio Glow, which I also adore. Soft and powder-like, clean and bubbly. This is perfect for humid weather! The ocean breeze note seems to give me a light wash for about 3 hours. I wished this lasted longer; thankfully there’s Luscious Pink Deluxe. That Peach Bellini is so refreshing, like sparkling peach flavored water on a hot day.
nonahgonajiac – :
I like this one but its not a favorite….I wish I smelled the fruitiness in this but NOPE!!!
All I smell is the peony,tiare flower,faint lily of the valley and hints of white musk…its not bad but & atleast its a light floral that lasts…..I don’t mind the floral but this isn’t one I wear a lot.
inhellilk – :
I have had my phases with Luscious Pink and I can tell you I was obsessed! A very clean and floral scent, perfect for wear after the shower. I get a nice mandarin scent in the background. It reminds me so much of like a bubblebath scent since it’s a very fresh and clean scent. I would compare this to JLo’s Glow perfume however I find this is the more natural clean scent whereas Glow is more of a synthetic clean scent. I find the longevity is a bit disappointing. What starts out as a very strong and bold scent when it first touches my skin turns out to last only 10-20 minutes…it’s a shame, however it doesn’t change my mind that it’s a fantastic perfume!
I rate this an 8/10. Scent is heavenly, bottle is gorgeous, just wish the perfume would last longer…even for just one hour!
dalomar haras – :
Es un olor fresco con un toque de limón y dulce a la vez por los toques florares, me encanta ! El único problema es que casi no se siente … No dura ni 15 minutos en la piel.
LokyFroryrilt – :
I wasn’t very impressed with this scent. I am not a fan of the floral. I was hoping it would be a bit more on the fruity side but it wasn’t. I have it but don’t wear it much. It is also very strong and makes my head hurt.
Sovaloole – :
I would love this smell if it lasted longer. Soft, peachy and floral. Wonderful for work or just running errands.
kypr1983 – :
Not my taste at all, pink and bland, her first frag was much better, this lasts no time at all
kornet – :
It’s ok I guess. I’m getting a very strong mandarin scent from it. Well citrus really, slightly sweet, but it kinda reminds me of an Avon body spray. It’s not all that. No notes that I’m fascinated by. I’m sure there are a lot of other perfume with a similar scent. Love the bottle though. Kinda why I bought it.
Nickons – :
I’ve fallen hard for this perfume, it just smells too pretty! If pink had a smell this would def be it. It’s light, but for me, I find it to linger just fine.
verikos – :
I’ve had the Ultra Pink body mist first – which I quite like it – before I blind bought this original one.
I ordered the 5ml mini from a site but received the Parfum version instead.
Overall the smell of this fragrance is quite pleasant, feminine and woody. The opening note is quite citrusy with the combination of bergamot, accords of ocean breeze and Bellini. And then soft floral notes comes quickly. The base notes are quite soft and still smells pretty much similar to the middle note. I could smell marshmallow too, although it is not listed as one of the notes in it.
Lastly, the smell lasts about 30 minutes to 1 hour max on my skin, despite it’s a Parfum. Very weak and soft, but if you like soft floral type of fragrance and not being too offensive, you may try this one.
EBH – :
the smell is too soft , and doesn’t long last
arhangeltso – :
Clean, sparkling, and slightly feminine. A light perfume perfect for sick days, housework, cheering up, and working in very close quarters.
Linear without many transitions although it is noticeably more citrusy the first hour versus hours later. I do not smell peach at all, if the note is supposed to be peach bellini I don’t understand where the peach is. I get more of a bergamot and hard lemonade smell.
The white florals are not heady at all, they are muted, clean, and uniform amongst themselves, like a singular white floral note. I don’t find tiare particularly noticeable despite it’s high votes, the LOTV doesn’t seem to have a fresh green edge which I think is unfortunate.
The oceany note adds a nice touch.
I get a litte bit of wood but nothing crazy.
This is one of my top picks for an optimistic yet very light perfume. It’s very comfortable to wear, it helps with any hard feelings I have.
Gard_m – :
It’s hard to know for sure, because this scent is so so so light, but I think I like it! If you find it cheap and don’t mind damn near bathing in it then I think it’s a nice scent! I’m shocked how light it is, almost always it’s that celebrity perfumes are horribly strong!

Got a story to tell:
My young brother gifted me MC Luscious Pink. it was actually his first boarding as a seaman and when he returned back home, he got lot of stories of experiences and the challenges he had on board. after all those talkings.. suddenly he took a peach/pinkish box from his suitcase and said “I’ve got something for you Sis” Shaking his head with a big smile saying that he had a hard time choosing a perfume for me, and he even asked his bunkmates to help him do so. Looking at Bro as my little boy since birth up to his manhood (since we no longer have mum and I acted as his 2nd) it really touches my heart that after all his journeys he never failed to remember, and he knows the pretty little things that simply makes me happy 🙂
Luscious Pink at first sniff, Whew! ..i found it SO SWEET… the sweetest frag to my nose and I never tried sniffing it again that time…i almost gave it away. but since i really love collecting frags not to mention, that Bro is a darling to me, so i kept it instead. I just bear in mind, oh well my bro is still young and probably it matches his taste (btw, I’m 7 years older than him).
After about 3 years, i decided to fix my collection of frags and tried to sniff MCLP once again.. OH it surprised me that it really SMELLS SO GOOD. it’s candy sweet at the beginning but not overpowering.. Fresh and clean with floral hint at the middle and the drydown is simply WONDERFUL. On my skin, it’s a bit powdery with a hint of citrus and woods.. it’s just AMAZING.. Even if it’s so light, the longevity is unbelievable, approx 8-9 hours!
This was the first ever sweet frag that I used to ignore, but now — I love it even more!! This scenario happened to me twice already.. Hate on first sniff, then fall in love after several years.. Then I’ve come to realize, that preference of scent actually changes.. depending on mood, age, season/climate, or simply our body chemistry.. could also be our sense of smell =P
My fascination with fruity-floral scents started with MC’s Luscious Pink. Everytime I wear it, somehow it relaxes and energizes me.. simply makes me happy! The bottle is really PRETTY and over-all it’s LIKEABLE. And I’m glad that my brother got a good taste on decent perfume for women, eventhough until now I can still see more of him as my little boy.
ВЛАДИСЛАВ77 – :
This was my signature scent a couple years back. It reminded me a lot of MAC Turquatic. It is just more fruity floral. I wear this perfume when I want to feel girly, not gourmand overtly sweet princess girly, but fresh and vibrantly feminine girly. My favorite note is the sea notes. It really pops out on my skin and lingers for quite some time. I think that one note will cause me to always have a bottle in my collection. It is great for the office or a day out with friends. If you love Violet Eyes by Elizabeth Taylor, I think you will like this. Luscious doesn’t have the peach notes though. If you love Chanel Chance Eau Tendre, you may like Luscious as a more budget friendly affair. Chance Eau Tendre is more intense and long lasting, but the freshness citrus floral composition is similiar, but by no means are these simularities dupes. They are just family members. Luscious Pink offers a nice change, if you are trying to get away from vanilla sweetness overload. Luscious Pink is super fresh and pleasingly pleasing.
lbvfnb – :
I’ve M Ultra Pink Mist, because I couldn’t find the EDP, I also have Luscious Pink, and Luscious Pink Deluxe Parfum Edition, and they all smell similar. Luscious Pink Deluxe Parfum is the creamiest of them all, Luscious Pink EDP is creamy, but more of a lighter cream version, and to me M Ultra Pink isn’t really creamy it’s more sea water smell with fruits, and berries. Overall I give all of them a 10/10.
константин прокопчук – :
she sat quietly on my dresser for 2 years wondering when I was going to pay her some attention. This month I randomly picked her up and have been wearing for a couple of weeks. She is a deceiving girl, in the bottle she smells of something strange and is a bit put-off but on my skin she flourishes into a light fruity floral scent. We’re not in love but we’ve formed a friendship after all these years.
scent: 8.5
packaging: 8.5
dorin111 – :
this scent always sparks allergies in me. don’t know why. even when i sniff it off the bottle, i feel some congestion in my chest. it is a nice musky floral though. wish i was not allergic to it or some note in it.
ADRENALINN – :
I bought a cheap tester bottle of Luscious Pink the other day and was very curious to see for myself what it smelled like. I was wondering if, as lizzie81 said, it would smell very much like a lighter, fresher version of M, which I have a bottle of from a swap but I’m not too keen on because of the heavy notes (maybe patchouli, but not sure!).
When I first sniffed Luscious Pink I have to admit I was disappointed – it smelled OK, quite sweet and girly and pleasant enough but in some ways generically sweet and not particularly standout in any way. In fact, when I sprayed it on my opinion didn’t really change too much initially and I thought perhaps I’d made another dud blind buy and might end up swapping it.
However, this does start to smell better to me the more I wear it and, as someone else on here commented, it also smells quite clean despite it being pretty sweet. On me it’s mainly sweet, i.e. cookies, macaroons, etc, and not particularly floral and I definitely don’t smell alcohol in it or any sea notes!
So, I’m quite liking it now and it seems to suit me and my skin, although the lasting power isn’t great to say the least and I can barely smell a thing after a couple of hours or so although, as someone else noted, other people seem to be able to notice it more than perhaps the wearer actually can, which is a bit disappointing. If I get some on my clothes though it seems to linger more and I can smell it subtly when i move around.
Something that amazed me about this perfume though was that a male friend of mine, who is very honest when asked about his opinions about perfumes, etc, REEEAALLLY likes this perfume on me and could barely bring himself to stop sniffing my wrist intensely! In fact, he said he found it quite a turn-on, so to say I was surprised by his response to it is a bit of an understatement! I really just thought he’d think it was OK but nothing special. Another thing that surprised me about his reaction to it was that he said he detected a note like vodka (maybe that’s the bellini but I’ve never smelled that so I wouldn’t know!) but I don’t get that at all, just sweetness! Of all the perfumes he’s smelled on me so far this one has provoked the most enthusiastic response from him so it seems that at least some men seem to find it very alluring!
So, Luscious Pink has definitely grown on me after wearing it a handful of times and I would consider getting another (cheap!) bottle of it when I run out. I definitely prefer it to M which for me is totally ruined by a heavy’ish, stinky note which I think may be patchouli, which I really hate, and which I think totally overpowers the other sweeter, and nicer, notes in that perfume. The downside for me though of Luscious Pink is the relatively poor staying power – I really hate when some perfumes seem to virtually evaporate after a very short time of wearing. So, I would definitely NOT spend a lot on this perfume but if I can get another cheap tester bottle then I’d be happy to do that!
mityxa – :
IF YOU’RE “ALLERGIC” or non-perfume user this one is a better perfume for you. Very light and florally sweet.
MayonaWaype – :
Very light sparkling fizzy scent. Even if you think you cant smell it on you and that it has faded – everyone else can. I have recieved tons of compliments when wearing this fragrance.
Arthur_iii – :
I wouldn’t by this again but this perfume is good for people that don’t really wear perfume everyday. It’s VERY light and pretty.
nic1222 – :
Very light scent but stays on the skin 🙂
It starts off citrusy then morphs to a juicy floral, very pretty at this stage. It’s simple yet addictive… It gets softer yet a little powdery when the sandalwood & musk blend with the florals
I can really smell the Tiarè Flower, reminds me of the Monoï de Tahiti (Tiarè Flower) Lotion I have
Densckul – :
This perfume is really good for non-perfume user, its a very light perfume.
Still a nice perfume to wear but you need to spray every 30 minutes…
It’s just neutral and calm floral perfume.
I like the scent, I love the bottle.
PHILIPP – :
Very fruity light fresh sweet scent one of my favorite . I love it :)))
immusyunots – :
I’m disappointed in this. I was almost going to blind buy this as I love Bellini and the notes sounded great, but I decided to seek it out and test it. I’m glad I did, as I could detect no bellini. I couldn’t really detect anything distinguishable. It’s simply a light and sweet scent. It’s still a nice scent and something I would wear in a pinch, but nothing special. Still seeking a Bellini perfume.
sgz418Negeltzex – :
Not bad, VERY sweet and girly, but not nauseatingly sweet. More on the sweet floral side, well blended. I would’ve guessed it has berry notes instead of Bellini.
I like celeb fragrances a lot. This is another great safe buy if you want to get something for someone.
Pashok3330 – :
This stuff smells really good – for being a celebrity fragrance, smells very nice. It’s quite fresh , yet keeping floral. I got 30 ml for $13 at chemist warehouse, very inexpensive. Even if this doesn’t last long, wouldn’t bother me – as it’s so inexpensive! It won’t hurt to re-spray!
koljambo – :
I get a hilarious combination of melon, bubblegum and grapefruit from this at first, but it matures nicely. I was surprised that I liked it so much, as I’m usually more of a Halle fan.
mtarhangel – :
Luscious Pink is a floral fruity fragrance upon opening, this must be due to the boozy bellini! There’s something very luscious about it – particularly when combined with the accompanying body lotion. It is a cheerful, day time scent that isn’t too overpowering. I find that it drifts in and out when I’m wearing it which gives it light, ethereal quality.
The sea note is an interesting one. It balances out the fragrance well, giving is a slightly salty edge that makes LP a little different to a lot of the other conservative floral fragrances out there. A little kick is always a nice little surprise in a fragrance!
The floral notes are there for a short while, jasmine, being the dominant floral note, lingers the longest. The musk, wood notes and sandalwood are the good ol’ trinity of finishing notes that tie the fragrance up well. I’m a sucker for sandalwood, this one is a winner for me. The sandalwood could be stronger, so I’ll dab a little sandalwood oil on my wrist to liven it up!
If you wear LP together with the body lotion, it does last a long time. Without the lotion, it can be fleeting, so it’s better wearing if you can get the body lotion. All in all, it’s a feminine fragrance that is wonderful for warm summer days.
aidar44 – :
I’ve had this one for a while. I think the bottle is adorable. The perfume is just okay. This just doesn’t seem like anything at all special to me. I must have bought this without being able to smell it or just once I wore it a while, it wasn’t as good as I thought. My favorite place to buy fragrances is Ross, TJ Maxx or Marshalls, but they don’t have testers, so sometimes you end up with a perfume you don’t love. This isn’t a bad scent, it’s just not one I’d ever rebuy and may even pass on to someone else.
undiskAdmisee – :
I received, ‘Luscious Pink’ as a present. It came in a gift set consisting of a 30ml, 10ml and a body lotion.
All very pink, butterfly adorned and girly. Just what I like:)
It’s an uplifting scent when first sprayed. I can make out the bergamot, and the zingy bellini note. However the longevity and silage is next to nothing on my skin. This fades away after 10 mins and 1 hour later I can just about make out a very weak soft bergamot scent, on my skin.
This would make a good bright uplifting morning/daily scent, but you would have to keep on re-applying. So a 30ml bottle will not last long.
The name is all wrong too. Its not luscious or pink. For Me it’s an energising quick fix sort of perfume.
The best thing for Me is the bottle. It’s cute and absolutely gorgeous, therefore I’m happy to have it in my growing collection.
However, the perfume itself is a let down, and one I would not miss.
asus99 – :
I actually like this! Such a clean, light, and gentle scent. Staying power isn’t exactly that great and the scent itself isn’t exactly the most interesting, but it’s still a lovely scent.
lehagorodeckii – :
This is such a pretty perfume. I usually spray a lot of it on when I use this perfume cause it is light and doesn’t last very long. The scent is really lovely after the dry down, it’s a bit too sweet when I first spray it on but then settles to a fruity/flowery scent.
kpw285speagoessenda – :
that bergamot is strong i think. it just smells really musky and floral. it is a bright fragrance though, like sparkling water and flowers? its too much for me.
rpa046speagoessenda – :
smells cheap/musky and gave me a headache… ended up giving the bottle to a friend..phew!

This is another one of those little gems that you just don’t know until you try it, and the first second is misleading but immediately leads you into a wonderful romantic fairytale, in which you are glad you took the chance of opening that particular book. The sillage is extremely nice, and the lasting power is better than average. The perfect combination of Lily of the Valley and Peony.

My mum bought me this a few years ago because she wanted the bottle when the perfume was used up!! She loves Mariah Carey perfumes but only for the bottles 😛 First 10 seconds were very sharp, but it quickly settles on my skin as a very nice feminine mix of soft florals and musky woods. The kind of perfume I’d spray on and think… “why don’t I wear this more often?”

I get a lot of grapefruit from this, it is fruity but the floral and aquatic notes keep it from being sharp. Soft, sweet, fresh, pleasant, but I feel like I’ve experienced so many similar fragrances. At this price point it’s worth picking up though, since this seems to be at every Marshalls/TJ Maxx. This is a great summer/spring fragrance and appropriate for daytime and office wear IMO. It’s not the most unique scent I own but I find myself using it more often than I thought I would.

I can really smell the lily of the valley in this one – and it’s rare that I like lily of the valley in a fragrance – but Luscious Pink makes it a wearable note for me! In the end it is a soft powdery citrus floral with a hint of musk, not something that is usually my taste, but I actually kind of like it. It comes out of the bottle with a very very bitter citrus and bellini essence, and that does take an hour or so to soften out. But then the florals and the soft musk arrive and it is pleasant. I couldn’t figure out what this reminded me of for the life of me, but then I finally realized that this actually smells like a very soft and lighthearted version of Lancome Tresor (which I do not like) but somehow here it is okay for me. It has a sharp edge due to the bergamot and lily of the valley, but is also very slightly musky. It’s not sweet. If you are into sharp but
