Sweet, sweet almond. When I tested this, the opening reminded me of La Petite Robe Noire minus the patchouli and mixed with Jergens Cherry Almond lotion.
If you like original Jergens lotion, you will love this. Great scent if you can tolerate almond. Sometimes I can, sometimes I can’t. Are almonds even a food I sometimes wonder, or more of a flavoring?
The oddball aspect of this perfume is that despite its being a gourmand sweet nutty scent, it remains light. Not weak, just not cloying. It’s a crisp gourmand, not gooey and sloppy the way most of them tend to be. Nothing to do with hippies. I thought (hoped) all the peace-love-hippie hype would lead to a Nag Champa/Cannabis/Patchouli meltdown. It didn’t, but this is still really pretty and wearable.

Love Hope Denim is nice.. for a few seconds. It’s sweet, but a different sweet, like candied dust. The yummy notes will stand out first and you think it smells good, then the other notes start creeping in and you’re certain this fragrance was concocted on the dusty hardwood floor of a 70’s antique shop.
shamanasan – :
I got this from a swap and I really love it. I had never heard of it before nor tried it. It’s sweet and unique!
mutabor462 – :
I thought I’d add the entire composition of notes since they aren’t all listed here.
Top: pink kiwi, Apple, peach blossom
Mid: iris, caramel, sugared almond
Dry down: brown sugar, Madagascar vanilla, candied musk

I have been on the hunt for the perfect caramel scent. I bought Prada Candy, which I like, but don’t absolutely love. I have Mariah Carey Dreams, and I get no caramel from that. I have Fancy, but the red berries are a little more prominent in that perfume than I would prefer. Then I found a bottle of Love Hope Denim stashed in my closet, unopened. I have officially found my perfect sweet caramel perfume. It’s definitely sweet, but it isn’t too much, even as I’ve been testing it in the warm summer months. Caramel and brown sugar, some vanilla, and pure comfort and joy are what this perfume is made of. It also layers well with Philosophy Fresh Cream. I need to buy a few bottles of this since it looks like it might be discontinued.. if you find a good price on this perfume and like sweet caramel scents don’t sleep on it. Gorgeous!
lazer85 – :
I’d been trying to find something that is similar to PINK warm and cozy. I saw a few reviews here saying that this is quite like it. Blind bought this and I’m glad I did. It does kinda smell like warm and cozy, but this stands on its own. I get caramel and vanilla only, but I’m not complaining. I think it’s pretty.
Edit: so 3 weeks later and after wearing this a few times I will say it is a really nice scent. However the longevity and sillage is extremely weak. Warm and cozy lasts far longer and that’s only a body mist! W&C also has more depth to it, considering I can barely smell LHD right after spraying it. I give up on looking for something just like W&C. I just keep getting let down.
ulia-detka – :
Okay, y’all are gonna think I’m a little bit crazy, but on me, this smells nearly identical to Poison Girl EDT, but a touch softer, which is a plus for me, because while I do enjoy Poison Girl, it can be a little heady and headache inducing for me if worn for many hours. To me, this is like Poison Girl’s softer, gentler baby sister.
Having said all of that, the one fault I find with this Love Hope Denim, is that it fades way too fast. This becomes a skin scent within less than half an hour. If this lasted even a couple of hours, I would be happy. Pity, because it is a lovely scent. I suppose the upside is this makes a great cuddle, get close to me, fragrance. The bottle is so stinking cute. A great scent, just wish it lasted longer.
desjrorm – :
This is the perfume that started it all for me! The almond sweet vanilla dries down to have an amazing cream soda note that I absolutely adore. I went through my entire bottle and wish wish wish I hadn’t! Please bring this one back to Kohl’s stores! The almond sweetness is so light, but also so warm and sweet. There is no perfume exactly like this perfection, but Pink’s warm and cozy is pretty close! Ah, tis better to have loved and lost than to never have loved at all…
ur_vlad – :
Really similar to PINK Warm and Cozy. This one is a bit more sophisticated and light than the PINK.
aleiner – :
This smells really great on my girlfriend.
Sweet and tasteful.
Will buy another one for her.
Last about 6 to 8 hours…sillage is at arm’s length.
pavlin9009 – :
I love caramel,vanilla,almond and musk so I had to have this
First about it’s bottle.I love it.it’s cude also heavy.it’s box is cute too
About the scent.I like it very much.it’s better than my imaginations.I can’t get any fruity notes.it’s all about caramel blended with powdery almond and musky vanilla.I can also feel a smokey/burnt sugar undertone here.I feel there’s also licorice in it,though unlisted.this burnt undertone may be off putting for some people but I think it gives a unique dark bite to it’s warm,buttery-powdery sweetness and make it more mature
I think it develops different from most people on my skin,I also think it’s more a night fragrance and definitely a winter perfume
Can’t tell about longevity yet but sillage seems to be more than moderate.it’s not very intense and in your face,it’s not a weak one either
emerGator – :
dislike
-because i can´t wear it more than 1/2hour although I like caramel. After then i would get diabetes. And my neighborhood too.
johny – :
I was in two minds about this when I got the sample. Then I tried it again after a few months, and loved it, so when I was able to pick up a bottle very cheaply, I jumped at the chance. I’m so, so, so glad I did – this is yummy! Warm, creamy, smooth, delicious caramel, with lovely wafts of vanilla and almond. I’ve had a few people comment on this one when I wear it, and say how nice it is, and one of them asked me where they could buy it. It lasts well and the sillage is pretty good. It makes me feel happy when I wear it!
mssyailo – :
Pretty and girly!! Smells like sweet coffee on me!
FibheecicsBah – :
oh man, the first time I wore this I remember I liked it but today this is just so synthetic and weird smelling to me I can hardly stand it. Slightly reminds me of al rehab golden sand but this is nowhere near as good and smells much cheaper.
Sphinx2010 – :
Aaaaarh, frustrated with this one, blind bought based on reviews here….as I had my hopes high for this one, but it’s not the caramel gourmand I was expecting, very weak like water, dissapears as soon as you spritz it on your wrist, no lasting power, no sillage, don’t waste your money…as even the perfumes in £1 shops seems to last longer, my quest for a lovely rich caramel perfume continues…this is not it. Would not recommend.
batusai – :
Hmm, I seem to be in a minority, I prefer Prada Candy to this one.
This is far too powdery far too quickly for me. I had to have a shower just now to get rid of the scent. It hangs nicely in the air so I may use it as a room spray instead but I will not be purchasing it – I won this in a Forum Giveaway – there is something in this fragrance that I did not like which sounds weird because notes listed here are in LOTS of other fumes I own but I think it is missing something that would make it perfect for me.
I guess I like the really very toothachingly sweet fragrances with warmth to them. This has a very unpleasant association on my skin … and I am far too polite to say what it reminds me of on my skin …
As I said I shall use it for a room spray but not as a perfume, now wearing my signature scent and feel more relaxed …
Sorry 🙁
Chrono36 – :
As much as I thought I loved my highly coveted bottle of Prada Candy I just can’t get past the “dusty” note that pops up in the drydown. I was digging through some old samples I had purchased on ebay a while back and found TR LH&D, sniffed the tiny little bottle and sprayed, Oh my goodness I forgot how good this stuff smells, almost exactly like Prada Candy but minus the annoying dustyness! I scrolled through my myriad of reviews to find that I loved it when I first got my samples….why did they wind up in my perfume rejects bag I will never know! I am considering a proper bottle of TR (though I have 10 sample sized bottles to plow through first!). TR is lovely, vanilla and caramel goodness, very soft, very smooth, I imagine it would be prefect for cooler weather (still summer here). It seems to last about 5 hours on me before a respritz is necessary. So while my Prada Candy is still in my rotation and on “display” on the bathroom counter (the bottle is cute!), it will probably not get much use in the future. Sorry Prada…..
Sillage: 5/10 an average projector
Longevity: 6/10 about 5 hours
Overall: True Love!! 10/10!! YUMMY!!!! :0)
Odin546 – :
Caramel, caramel and more caramel. And I mean that in the best way possible! This stuff is positively yummy! Warm, smooth and extremely well blended. Very nice for cold days when you want to feel sweet and young. Picture mittens and red noses and hot cocoa in cozy coffee shops.
HeljkoTomi – :
Wow!!! I’m loving this fragrance. Love the caramel, vanilla, and almond notes which is the most prominent on my skin. I went ahead and got the gift set, which included lotion – so used together you get decent longevity & silage- aprox 5 hours. This is a real gem of a perfume.
EregeFeepinue – :
I purchased this just yesterday on clearance– just $10! I had another TR fragrance that I love, but I love this on even more. As I wore it yesterday it kept reminding me of something and it’s Prada Candy which is on my want list! It’s sweet and caramel like.
maksim18 – :
This smells similar to B&BW Amber Blush, without that nauseating bit that I find a bit too spicy. I find this is similar to Prada Candy, with less caramel and similar to Hot Couture with less raspberry. It is a sugarbomb for adults!
aserhio77 – :
Well…can an elephant even smell better than this!?
I LOVE this. It’s what I wanted/expected Fancy to smell like. I find no similarity to B&BW Amber Blush. I do not find this to be a cotton candy scent like many do either. I smell mostly the caramel. They might be making cotton candy in the next carnival trailer but I’m standing in front of the caramel corn trailer. It’s a very soft caramel that I compare to the dry down of Guess by Marciano. Guess is a bit sharp at the very first….this isn’t. It also isn’t as long lasting as Guess which I am sad about. Another comparison is that I find this very close to The Body Shop’s Brazil Nut. Both are very much like a carnival scent. Of the two, I find this one to last the longest, and it’s superior overall to Brazil Nut.
You can wear this any time of year. For me, I prefer summer most of all. This is the scent of a carnival, but it’s perfection for any summer festival, art fair, concert in the park etc…
This is just a beautifully done fragrance…for young or old? I guess if it were targeted to any one group…I’d have to say stuffed animals! YEP! This is a bottle of fluffy stuffed elephant your lover just won at a carnival game while eating caramel corn. You will feel only joy when you spray this on.
Edit- I understand the Pink Sugar comparison now! I sprayed a bunch on last night before bedtime. I awoke and could smell Pink Sugar. The two appear to be VERY similar after hours of wear.
lika0805 – :
Another amusement park smell in a bottle 🙂 however I wouldn’t recommend actually wearing this to a hot, sunny and sticky summer trip to Disney world(maybe when it gets darker it would be safe to wear to theme park) In my opinion this scent made me think of soda pop(the fruity top notes) cotton candy and caramel popcorn(the warm and sweet dry down) the projection is amazing and the lasting power isn’t bad,I’m happy I found this for $12.00, great scent for a great price
gorec68 – :
Grabbed this today as the box caught my eye…OMG I love it! For me it’s a mix of Pink Sugar and Black Sugar. It has the sweet with a mix of the oriental spice, but not overpowering or heady and a nice touch of vanilla.
hsb675speagoessenda – :
I wanted love this fragrance after reading all the notes.. but its super, sticky, syrupy sweet! Like Prada candy with LOTS of artificial flavors added! Maybe I’m “too old” for this scent in my early 30s? I don’t know.. just not feeling it!
rinat.neo – :
This is a simple, sweet smell. The bottle is fitting. It looks youthful, fun, and about as unserious as you can get, and that’s what it smells like. It’s is a very warm, sweet smell that reminds me of a less powdery and less mature version of Prada Candy, and there’s nothing wrong with that.
I found a 3.4 oz bottle at TJ Maxx for about $15 and I really like it for days when I’m mostly just lying around the house, being cozy. The lasting power and projection are both weak on me so I really drench myself in this stuff, but it’s so cheap, and though I really like it, it’s not one of my favorites, so I don’t mind “wasting” it. I’m glad that I picked it up.
Aerohopleneridhz – :
Much better than expected. From the look of the packaging and bottle (very busy, colorful lettering with a faux leather loop with little charms on it) I thought this would smell very cheap and have poor longevity.
Not true.
I actually get the almond note. Very sweet. But lasts a good while and has moderate sillage. Has the sugar pop feel of “celeb” fragrances. Vanilla is there, but so are the fruit and musk.
I was lured by the promise of almonds. Hard to find anything decent and affordable with an almond note.
Worth the $15 I paid. Might be okay for layering as well.
Beatledjus – :
Smells like cotton candy and fruit juice, and is never too ‘thick’. Absolutely love it.
Meyne617Diobtetty – :
I have to agree with others that I do enjoy the ultimate Caramel of this one. It’s more of a burnt Caramel. It is not long lasting on me but my daughter who is 15 says it lasts all day on her. We both do enjoy it and it’s a better choice for me over pink sugar.
kasper6989 – :
This is a sweet fragrance that lasts on me. I like it and will wear it again. It’s a hippie type of fragrance without patchouli. It is a little spicy with a very synthetic smell. Love the bottle!
genetic – :
This is one of my favorites. To me this smells exactly like Trader Joe’s caramel cashew cookies. I get a lot of compliments on this perfume. It is just delicious but I’m one of those girls who loves to smell like baked goods so if you’re not chances are you will not like this perfume.
Whendaraineex – :
Who ever said it smelled like cherry soda was right !! But in a good way. I didn’t know what to think about this perfume at first because at a certain point I couldn’t smell it on myself. Until a lady who was sitting 5 feet from told me I smelled good the same day I bought it.I guess that’s a good thing. It is a unique smell too me becausr of the cherry soda smell . and it is a little fruity but a mature fruity. I like that. I would recommend this more for grown women than teens. But the longevity and sil. Are above average . really good.
I think I could wear this all year 🙂 . it would definitely not be too much for the summer!
shlyopka007 – :
To me, this perfume smells a lot like Pink Sugar, only softer and without the burnt notes. Very nice fragrance!
Magog – :
This perfume is a watered down version of Can Can by Paris Hilton, Fancy by Jessica Simpson and Guess by Marciano. It’s super super light, if you’re someone who likes a strong perfume skip this one. It’s a light vanilla scent with some sort of spicy notes which are indistinguishable. Unlike Prada Candy, the caramel isn’t buttery and milky. It’s very artificially sweet. Once again, this is a very light perfume. My make up remover wipes even have a stronger more potent fragrance than this. It lasts 30 min maximum.
Rendes – :
Update:
I FINALLY BOUGHT THIS PERFUME!! yay but not that yay.
Actually im pretty disappointed because this is not what expected…..
Its very very sweet and fruity… initial blast of candy and fruity sweets… and burnt hot caramel.. and burnt sugar . Its nice but i thought i could get the almond:(
Oh and one thing that is very important. THIS IS VERY VERY ABSOLUTELY VERY SIMILAR TO PRADA CANDY. except that prada candy has that kind of spices. But this is actually very similar. I thought that this denim has benzoin but maybe im wrong.
Overall im giving it 8.99/10 :)))
Hitrjuga – :
Okay, so this has literally got all of my favorite notes in so I knew I had to have it. I found it 25% off online and ordered it, knowing I probably should use up some of my ever-groaning collection before buying a new one, but this sounded too good to be true. The bottle is quite pretty, heavy glass with fun little designs over it. The little leather charms are cute too! It doesn’t look out of place on my dressing table. It’s a perfect gift for more ‘hippy’ girls.
First sniff – Identical to Paris Hilton’s CanCan, just at a lot more expensive price. (I can find a 100ml bottle of CanCan for about £10 if I look hard enough)This isn’t a bad thing, it’s that sort of milky, warm, comfort scent.
Second sniff (About ten minutes later) – Smells like paper. Weird?!
Repsrayed about an hour later – Smells like bubblegum!! Like I’ve actually rubbed a stick of bubblegum on my wrists, very strange! Not sure if I like it, it’s sweet and playful though.
Drydown – Warm caramel and brown sugar. Mmmm.
Overall, I do like this scent. I did buy it blindly, and I will wear it, but it’s not a signature for me. I was sooo hoping for warm, sticky caramel and vanilla but that doesn’t come till much, much later. I like it, but I probably wouldn’t buy another bottle.
шумахер93 – :
I am a big fan of this as sweets and gourmands are definitely my thing. The vanilla and caramel works beautifully. This is such a lovely, warm and happy scent. It makes me smile. I also find the longevity and sillage really great with this perfume. It’s what I wanted Mariah Carey – Dreams to be but that one didn’t really last on my
Skin and was boring. But that’s another review.
dcr703InsuffBooni – :
I tried this a month ago but ended up buying another perfume which was much worse than this…
This smells lingered on my wrist and drove me crazy. I felt like doing a big sin for not buying this. This smells just amazing and sophisticated. So fancy and smells verrrrry expensive. I have put this on my have to buy list for next month!!! This is highly recommended for a fancy ladies who love gourmand yet classy scent. Oh and this is not over the top but could stand out of other smells. Mild but stunning. Would not be drowned by other perfume that your friends might wear haha! Really niceeeee and quite simole bc it doesnt smell spicy at all♡♡

scoundrel – :
This is my new favorite perfume! I am so glad I found this website or I would have never heard of this! This is not a strong fragrance with a bunch of notes in it but its amazing IMO. It starts off as a warm caramel vanilla sprinkled with brown sugar and stays that way through the dry down. Nothing changes…just simple and delicious. I don’t smell any fruit or floral at all. To me it lasts pretty long. All day actually I still get whiffs of it but it is subtle. I like to mix it with Pink Sugar for an extra sweet treat.:-)
yanakt – :
I got 2 bottles of this good stuff for my b’day and i really like it a lot. Its a very sweet scent kinda smells like pink sugar 🙂 I’m really enjoying it:):)
filesmoney03 – :
I love sweet scents don’t get me wrong, but honestly this perfume is way too sweet for me. I like it, but it’s something I can live without. For me this perfume is for a younger crowd.
okunevjulik – :
I just got this in the 3.4 oz. bottle. I really would have preferred the smaller size, but they only had the large size at the store. This is a huge bottle. It really dwarfs the other ones on my dresser. The bottle is pretty cute though with the dangly charms, and I don’t think those come on the smaller bottle. I’m pretty impressed with this scent. It’s sweet but in a mellow way. I love Paris Hilton’s Can Can, and this bears a resemblance to that. I prefer Can Can slightly but not quite sure why. I’m just trying this out for the first time today, so I’ll update when I see how sillage and longevity are. If you love sweet scents, this is one to try. It doesn’t have that burnt sugar smell to it either, which I appreciate.
Update: This is one I reach for a lot. I actually love it. Sillage and longevity seem really good too. It’s a great fall and winter scent. I’ll test it in summer, but it might be rather sweet and heavy for summer. I’m glad now that I got the bigger bottle because I wear it often. And that is saying something considering I have a large perfume collection.
Mebsa995elipseskism – :
If anyone has it and want to swap away theirs, please PM me cause i really want this perfume.
Thanks.
PiggyHelen – :
This perfume is horrible. It reminds me of Bath and Body Work’s Sensual Amber. Smells just like it. That overpowering smell of Amber dominates the fragrance and is nauseating.
I bought it blindly because I love caramel. Love Jessica Simpson’s Fancy, and wanted something less fruity. And the notes look good.
I really wished I’d listened to the reviewers who said it smelled JUST LIKE Sensual Amber. I wouldn’t have purchased it.
I don’t get caramel in this at all It’s more like alchol and plastic mixed with sugar. Very synthetic. Sorry for the negative review. I just needed to vent!
elektro22 – :
I LOVE the smell of this perfume! Vanilla, sugar and caramel – it’s amazing. A lot of perfumes are too strong for me and make my head hurt, but this one is very light. But the unfortunate thing is that it doesn’t last nearly long enough. I feel like I have to reapply it every hour, and the bottle is a bit big to be carrying around in my purse.
Also, I don’t smell much of a similarity between this and Can Can, and I have both.
Either way, I’d recommend this perfume if you love to smell delicious, just be prepared to reapply a few times throughout the day!
antidro4er – :
I love warm caramel scents and recently purchased this on a blind buy. I LOVE IT! My signature scent use to be Prada Candy and when I sprayed this on it smelled identical to me! The only difference is the ever so slight hint of almond and berry burst which gives it its own identity…. It is scrumptious!
It begins differently then Prada Candy because the top notes have a more fruity beginning; however, once it is on the skin and warms, the delicious caramels make their appearance and the musk gives it enough of an adult smell that you do not smell like a little kid. It does have more vanilla and fruit in it. It is also less powdery smelling than PC. PC is great for the winter where this would be great for the summer.
I walked by my husband and he stopped me, kissed my neck, and asked me what I was wearing because he loved it…. DEFINITELY a winner!!!!
ClickSoft – :
I tried it and it reminded me of a a Cherry Coke. I got so many compliments on how great it smells on me. Now, it doesn’t last long, but it’s a sweet smell for a simple summer day.
janiesl – :
I was really disappointed by this one. I thought I was going to love it because the notes sounded so good! To me, it smells like cotton candy, so I can see the similarities to Can Can. It’s not bad, but not for me.
katusha79 – :
So, normally, I wear perfume for me, because my husband rarely notices it. Today, I put this on (I just got it) and he paused his movie when I walked by, sniffed deeply and just said ” Wow – you smell REALLY good!”. Immediately unpaused and went back to the movie. Definitely a keeper;)
Shira Legace – :
If anyone likes sweet fragrances, this is for you! I love anything with vanilla. To me, it is sweet, but it does not give me a headache, and there is more to it than plain sugar. It reminds me of caramel, sugar cookies, and wild violet fields. I would never have picked out this fragrance by looking at the bottle, which does not really suit the fragrance, in my opinion, but this is definitely my favorite fragrance. I could go all year, and it is definitely not one that people could complain about, as when I wear perfume to work, I always try to think of what others might think of what I am wearing. Also on a positive note, this is actually one of the only fragrances of mine that my boyfriend likes. =)
Natalya25167 – :
To any gourmand lover– this is a must have! I love gourmands, the sweeter the better! This is a lovely, light caramel/vanilla with a hint of floral. (I think it’s a floral/lighter version of Kat Von D’s Saint– which is a creamy/buttery vanilla/caramel). I wish this was stronger/more potent and projected more…. but alas it’s a great scent. I do not find this similar to Can Can (I have both) because CC is heavy fruit and I don’t get much fruit from TR: LHD.
shurup6 – :
Works well with my body chemistry too. This is a delicious scent. I was not expecting to like this–the name is ridiculous…lol. Can’t judge a fragrance by its name I guess. I can see this being a favorite for everyday. Especially if you like gourmand scents but don’t want to radiate of cotton candy. Give it a try; I think it will surprise you in a good way.
lidiya – :
To me, it smells like a cherry coca-cola. It’s a great scent because it works well with my body chemistry. I got it for a bargain at Marshalls and instantly fell in love. It is sweet, without being overpowering. A lovely scent for fall.
lns275speagoessenda – :
Happy gourmand scents assault me immediately after I spray True Religions Love Hope Denim. I smell vanilla, buttered popcorn, caramel and brown sugar with a hint of nuttiness. The overall muskiness simply sits low. The total effect is one of carnival-type smells, very summer-like and very enjoyable. All-in-all, a delicious fragrance to me.
I’ve read in reviews that this is a perfume for the “younger sets.” Well then, I guess I should hide in the corner when I wear this with shame because I’m not part of that “younger generation” and I still enjoy it. Perfume shouldn’t necessarily be age-specific, not always. If you like it, and it agrees with you, wear it.
Love Hope Denim happens to remind me of a few other scents that blend well with my chemistry, that are also gourmands, and yes, I enjoy a snack or two of a foodie perfume. Prada Candy, comes to mind, along with Pink Sugar, Angel, Tattoo, and Dior Addict. Just hang me up and call me a perfume wench if you must, but there are just times I don’t need to wear my Chanel No. 5, my Lanvins, my Magie Noir, or my Must de Cartier. I just want to smell tastefully good (pun intended) in a gourmand way and True Religions Love Hope Denim does that for a short time, about two hours or so, with minimal projection for me.
Good times to use it are when you don’t want to over-express yourself with your perfume, just getting cozy in the evening, or layering with other scents. The notes of caramel, brown sugar, and vanilla are most prominent for me throughout the projection of this fragrance with a close to the skin muskiness. The almonds are barely there and I cannot get any of the fruits mixed in with this. If you can find this in a small purse-sized bottle, I’d say go for that one, because of it’s limited longevity. You can easily reapply anytime during the day with one you can slip into your purse.
txs837bedyWelty – :
It loves my body chemistry & I love it! I get tons of compliments from coworkers when I wear it. Love it!
vitas69ru – :
I Found this at Marshall’s. The caramel note is spot on, extra salty sweet.There is a hint of nondescript fruit punch mixed in with the caramel. I do see the similarity between this and Fancy, which I also have. If I had to pick one over the other to repurchase, I would pick Fancy for better projection and longevity.
Kasperskiy – :
very very sweet almost too sweet but not quite.. I get the vanilla, brown sugar & caramel.. not fruits or florals on me.. projection was mild if at all, lasted about 3 hours which I consider poor on me. I may get a bottle if I can find it cheap at ross/marshalls as I did like it enough to buy, but with low projection & longetivy not enough to pay a lot for.
ujkjdrf – :
This is a casual and lighthearted version of Prada Candy. I am in no way saying this is a dupe for Prada Candy, it is more like if Prada had a one night stand with Fancy. This would be their cute little baby. Right after spraying, I get the fruity kick that lasts for a little while, and then it is all about the caramel and vanilla. Towards the end, it settles down with a musky-vanilla accord. Not much projection. If you are interested, check out TJ Maxx, Ross, etc. I like wearing it when I feel playful, it feels young and fun.
slajder – :
Like another reviewer had mentioned, I too found this product at Kohls and absolutely fell in love with this scent. It’s sweet and reminds me of a lighter version of Pink Sugar by Aquolina or Fancy by Jessica Simpson. My boyfriend really likes this scent as well, which makes this product a definite plus! Overall I think that this is a very nice everyday, youthful, vanilla, sugary perfume that I hope to purchase in the near future (:
zema74 – :
I really like this scent, as someone else described it’s youthful and inoffensive, which is qualities I look for in a fragrance. I hate when someone’s perfume is so strong it overwhelms you. This fragrance has a good balance of fruit and sweet and is perfect for spring/summer. The only con I would have to say is that the sillage is really soft, and it doesn’t seem to last very long.
sekyritate – :
update to my 5/19 review – i still love this True Religion fragrance and recommend it for the many reasons I stated but will add it back on purchase to my collection after ive had longer opportunity to wear my new found treasure – in M. Germaine Tattoo. I favor it at this time as I teach for a caramel and citrus note sort of combination in my collection.

This is for a blue jeans kind of day. A fun summer day. Perhaps a day at a carnival or an amusement park. It’s light sugar,or cotton candy. It’s not sticky sweet,it smells fresh and clean.
I like the idea of sugar,vanilla,and caramel,but I don’t smell any caramel in this. It’s sugary water,which I love!
I like how the bottle is tinted blue,even the purse spray is tinted! And the charms are too precious,especially the little pair of blue jeans. Three charms dangling off a little brown belt!

Very sweet. I smell mostly sugar and musk. There is vanilla here and even a hint of almonds, but I don’t think it smells like caramel, and I get none of the fruity notes. I think this is misnamed. I thought that with the word denim in the name and the pale blue bottle, there would be some cotton flower or fresh air notes, plus maybe a bit of patchouli for that hippie vibe. But this is the furthest from that idea that I can imagine. I do like this though. Although it is very sweet, it also seems somehow dry, so it doesn’t smell syrupy. This is a simple sweet scent done pretty well.

I loved this one when I spritzed it on while wandering through Kohl’s the other day. On me it’s a nice warm vanilla caramel smoothness. It lasts forever!! I have the test strip that I sprayed it on 4 days ago and it’s still nice and strong, perfumes my car nicely. I will be getting a bottle soon.
Sillage: 3/5 stays pretty close
Longevity: 5/5 lasts all day!
Price: I believe it was $50 for an ounce but don’t quote me on that.
Overall: very nice, longlasting vanilla/caramel creation.

Too cloying for me. It is nice but too much gourmand and the vanilla is just too heavy and overwhelming to me. I typically don’t like overwhelming vanilla but just a touch. If you are a vanilla lover and like sweet syrupy caramel sce
