Wash me, but don't get me wet!

...this works with Glow at least feels very good. Who thinks when reaching for a product in the drugstore that they will suddenly hold such a clean powerhouse fragrance in their hands? Usually, such star scents are hardly surpassed in terms of insignificance. Jlo takes a refreshingly different path here with the clean scent released in 2002. Glow is not a product of complexity. It doesn’t have to be. The interplay of the fragrance notes creates a "freshly showered" feeling that hits you hard. Bright flowers, soap, musk. Bam. A very present clean scent with brutal recognizability. This perfume doesn’t need an overloaded fragrance pyramid to make an impact.
After all these years, Glow doesn’t seem to have fallen victim to the widespread reformulation virus. Hopefully, it stays that way for a long time. A final anecdote about the longevity of Glow:

around eight in the evening... girlfriend gets into the car

Me: "wow, Glow!"
Girlfriend: "uhhhh.... well"
Me: "huh, I can smell it quite clearly!?"
Girlfriend: "I sprayed it on this morning..."
Me: "and you haven't reapplied since???"
Girlfriend: "no... strange, I can't smell it at all anymore..."

Conclusion: If you like clean scents, you should grab this one, as long as no one starts tinkering with it.

So, I've tested it and immediately fell in love. But why does it last so well on everyone else and not on me? *cry cry*. I generously sprayed it 8 times (on my neck, décolletage, back of my neck, and clothes), and neither my husband nor a good friend could smell anything after not even an hour. 😔😔😔

Absolutely agree with you. I had it shortly after its release and again about 8-9 years ago, but unfortunately something happened to the spray head, so I couldn't access the contents anymore. I've missed it and searched for it here, and it’s really great. Incredibly long-lasting and just smells so soapy and clean. For me, it doesn't really have anything to do with "Glow," as I imagine something warm, vanillic, and sweeter, but the scent is top-notch and doesn't imitate anything else.

That's true. And the longer I know it, the more it surprises me how well-crafted this scent is. And above all, it's not overly sweet.
