Lovely scent in a beautiful bottle!

I absolutely love the original Loverdose and this comes close to the original for me. It's notes are very different, but the powdery, sugary drydown of Red Kiss reminds me of Loverdose's dry down. The only difference is that Loverdose's dry down has more vanilla.

Red Kiss is a little gourmand, however it does not overpower and choke anyone out. The hazelnut and cacao are noticeable but they do not take center stage. Definitely a scent for the colder days. Longevity is amazing, 14 hours later and I can still smell it on my wrist. It projects nicely, and people close to you will be able to smell it on you. It's not a sillage beast though.

Upon first spray I smell the fresh fruits. Fresh green apple is the first thing I notice, mixed with some black currant. The sugar, bergamot and orange blossom are also there, but more muted. I really love smelling the fruits, especially in the morning when I just woke up. After the first hour Red Kiss starts to settle down into a comfy mixture of mostly sugar with hazelnut and a hint of cocoa and orange blossom still. I can't smell the apricot in this at all.

The dry down is my favorite stage. It's a mixture of sugar, hazelnut and amber. The combination of sugar and hazelnut strongly smells of vanilla. I'm actually surprised that there is no actual vanilla in this because I'd swear it's what I smell. The dry down is very cozy and comforting, a perfect scent for just laying around in bed or on the couch. That's why I love oriental vanilla scents, they're just so soft and give me comfy, relaxed and warm feelings. This is also my boyfriends favorite perfume on me, he complements me every time I wear it.

The Eternal Struggle with Orange Blossom

Just in time for the start of summer, a comment on a sweet, heavy blockbuster that actually fits much better into the cooler season! But when I tested it yesterday, it felt more like autumn here. Although the scent is supposed to be quite orange blossom-y, the comments were just too tempting…

Yes, so from two sprays on my hand, I had a long-lasting experience. Very long. The sillage of this fragrance is enveloping; I pushed it ahead of me (to myself?) like a bow wave. The scent is strong, very sweet, very warm, and very delicious. After about an hour, Red Kiss becomes a bit quieter and cozier. I don't explicitly smell the hazelnut, but the fragrance is definitely sweet and creamy.

I would really enjoy Red Kiss for autumn and winter, as I do have a penchant for sweet scents, and this one is wonderfully warm and soft. I would have loved to inhale this fragrance all the time and let myself fall into it. I would have liked to snuggle into it like a warm blanket. And it is truly delicious. But it just doesn't work. The orange blossom plays the leading role in this fragrance, and we simply cannot get along. It has always been this way and will most likely remain so. But it was worth a test.

Anyone who likes orange blossom and especially loves sweet, impactful fragrances should definitely give Red Kiss a try. Best in autumn. Because starting tomorrow, summer is coming!

The Chameleon in the Car

I tested Loverdose Red Kiss at home a few weeks ago and found it to be very candy-like, artificial, and very sweet at first. I almost wanted to dismiss it within the first few minutes, but then I discovered a somehow fascinating, warm undertone. Before I could further explore its development, I was interrupted, the day's plan changed, and I showered, washing it off, and had to leave. In the back of my mind, I formed the plan to test Loverdose Red Kiss more thoroughly soon.

Tuesday, August 30, 2016. Second attempt. This time at my friend's place. We both had a number of samples to test. We dedicated the whole evening until late at night to several fragrances, including Loverdose Red Kiss.
Again, it starts with candy; in the top note, I only smell sweet cherry, underlaid with something warm and spicy. It feels too artificial to me. My friend smells it exactly the same. The fruity-artificial scent, as I only realize when reading the manufacturer's fragrance pyramid, is supposed to be apple and currant. O.K., now that I've read that, I can faintly recognize the currant, more of a black currant, but definitely not natural. I only smell apples immediately upon spraying, but I didn't perceive them as such beforehand. They too are very artificial. Overall, Loverdose Red Kiss still resembles more of an amarena cherry to me. This remains pretty much the same for about two hours, and I think the scent probably won't develop any further. The same goes for my friend.
The evening is already advanced; I have to work the next day. We say goodbye. Then I get into the car and drive home. Already in the car, I think, there's a fine, pleasant waft coming from my wrist, and I ponder while driving that it makes sense not to smell too closely at the spot where you've sprayed a fragrance, but rather to waft some air from that spot. It smells so much more pleasant now suddenly with my hand on the steering wheel and not at my nose.

Then I was home and - again with my nose on my hand. But what was that? What had happened to the scent? There was nothing left of the amarena cherry. Instead: Lush orange blossom, intense but airy, the best orange blossom as it should be. It appears completely natural. What a sudden change! I drove for about 30 minutes in total. But already after perhaps a third of the way, I felt the change in the scent. This complete transformation from amarena cherries to orange blossoms took at most 20 minutes. Amazing! Now I am even more curious about how it will continue. So far, I haven't noticed any hazelnut, but who knows, maybe it will appear as surprisingly as the orange blossoms, which have now lasted for two hours.
I now fear that if the hazelnut takes its time - if it even wants to come - I will fall asleep before it does. Do I need to test Loverdose Red Kiss a third time to finally reach the base?
I sense a hazelnut now.... or have I already succumbed to the suggestion of my own expectation? Yes, I believe the wish was the father of the thought. It is more of a cocoa note that builds up very gently in the background while the orange blossom is still in the foreground. I find this very pleasantly calming and soothing. I fall asleep.
In the morning, nothing remains.

Four days later: Reset. Third test. This time I think after just a few minutes whether my amarena cherry impression, which sets in again immediately, could perhaps also be read as currant with hazelnut. Hmm. Maybe. Distantly. Amarena cherries are usually sweetened and have a somewhat dense and creamy taste, heavier and warmer than regular cherries. It could be that the supposed hazelnut is hiding here. The pleasantly warm and slightly spicy undertone that I noticed during the very first test could now also contain a hint of bitter almond.
Now comes again this approximately 3-hour phase in which the scent remains as it is and seems to only slowly fade.... now for four hours. In the meantime, nothing fruity remains, but this time the orange blossom does not want to show itself either. Only something vanillic with a hint of chocolate. What is going on with Red Kiss? It didn't take five hours last time to reach the orange blossom. Now six hours have even passed.
Now I remember that my friend, already on Tuesday after I left, had not noted any development towards orange blossom.
Was it related to my car ride? Was there a different temperature in the car, a different humidity, or were there perhaps some car emissions that had triggered the orange blossom? I suspect the humidity. But ultimately, I don't know what made the difference. I only know: This time Loverdose Red Kiss gently and quietly fades out with vanilla chocolate.

A fourth test would probably exceed the scope of this comment.
Conclusion: I will certainly gradually use up my nearly full 10ml bottle of Loverdose Red Kiss, occasionally taking it in the car, wearing it on a rainy day, and letting myself be surprised: What will come after the amarena cherry this time?

Edit: September 3, 2016: Today, in steady drizzle, the orange blossom awakens early and immediately on a wonderful Nutella base with marshmallow powder. So definitely a scent for rainy weather, only for rainy weather. I will buy a bottle.

My love in the summer time

I have owned this perfume for a long time now. It was also one of my first fragrances that I fell in love with.
In the past, I hardly knew anything about fragrances as it was important for me to have a good scent for everyday wear that smells nice and lasts long, and I found that with Diesel. Since I always leaned towards very clean scents, I wanted a slightly different perfume that is very playful and fruity.
So, I sought advice from the saleswoman, and she recommended this exact perfume, saying it was suitable for young girls like me.
At first, I didn't think much of it and tested it.

Now let's talk about the scent:
When I sprayed it on my wrist, the first thing I noticed was something sweet that quickly faded away. After a short time, I detected the blackcurrant note. Bergamot can be perceived throughout the entire scent development if you smell intensely at the wrist. The orange blossom is the most prominent in this fragrance progression; it is neither artificial nor sour, in my opinion. The orange blossom is slightly sweet, which I really like :)). I personally perceive hazelnut very lightly, roughly towards the end of the scent development. Unfortunately, I don't really notice cocoa and vanilla in this fragrance, but it doesn't bother me much since it smells so good. I find the bottle beautiful and also somewhat very elegant :)).
I prefer to wear this scent in the summer as I think it stands out beautifully compared to winter. In summer, it is perceived as sweeter and fruitier, but in winter, it is very fresh and citrusy on my skin. The longevity of this fragrance is very good as I can smell it all day long on both my skin and my clothing. My conclusion is that this scent works anytime and anywhere as it doesn't bother anyone and is suitable for all seasons.

Sweet Ruby

Through many comments, a pattern, and additionally published "ingredients" on the internet, I have been "persuaded." The two predecessors didn't appeal to me much, but this one is completely different.
The opening is quite strong and sweet-fruity. The red color is absolutely fitting, in my opinion. Blackcurrant, a bit of apple, and a "softening" apricot blend into an appealing compote, a splash of lemon captures the sweetness somewhat, but doesn't push itself to the forefront. The scent is meant to remain sweet until the end. A moment later, hazelnuts are mixed in, and not just a few. This gives the "red kiss" its special note. You can smell them distinctly, like the hazelnut cream in "Angel Muse." Very special, very unique, very delicious. "Red Kiss" remains brighter and cheerier, while "Muse" comes off as more melancholic.
After resting on skin and fabric for a while, the scent becomes softer; the spritziness or freshness from the beginning gives way to the cocoa note. It lends it an earthiness, a sense of calm or an inner tranquility. Especially on my skin, this transformation comes through extremely well, and I would almost describe it as non-floral on me. The sweet-chocolatey-nutty and simultaneously delicate fruity note remains consistent. Somehow, the patchouli note listed elsewhere doesn't show itself to me. Or it stays so subtly in the background that it serves rather than dominates. The longevity of the scent is absolutely among the best. It easily lasts all day, and yet the sillage is not overwhelming or oppressive. Of course, this always depends on application, but I don't perceive it as a striking bomb. However, it will attract attention. I can well imagine that it changes significantly with the temperatures. Due to the hazelnut and cocoa, I would wear it on not-too-warm days, as it could otherwise come off as too cloying. The bottle is handy, and as mentioned, the color is fitting for the note. Someone even adorned it with black lace. I can only agree with that. A sensual touch is certainly recognizable, although not in the style of "Agent Provocateur," which comes off as more mature. But one can still feel sexy with "Red Kiss" and confidently let the black lace peek out a bit.
