Look of Woman La Rive 2023

Since I fell ill with coronavirus in the fall, things have been chaotic for me when it comes to fragrances. My sense of smell has suffered and many things that used to be my dream scent are unfortunately no longer. As long as they don't trigger migraines or nausea, they have to go in the cellar for now.

Last week, I tested the fragrance here from La Rive and wrote a review. But Look of Women didn't deserve that after all. At the second attempt, it made it into my collection as a new addition. I have no idea why the first test was so bad.

Visually, the baby pink bottle is a sister to NR, but that's about it for me in terms of similarity. As always, it starts with a classic hairspray scent and a hint of rubber. But as always with LR, only at the beginning. Then rose and peach. Floral and fruity - I have become cautious with musk, but here it is well dosed with amber. Together a little tart like Yves Rocher Thè Vert, which I still mourn. The finish is softer with sandalwood and patchouli.

Last week I smelled fabric softener, but no, it's greenish notes that dominate and only a little floral. I don't know if it was the tester, because this time I was in a different store. Now it went from a flop to a top, but I would definitely recommend testing it beforehand. You can't go wrong with it. Of course, it's not a firecracker that flies behind you like a flag and smothers the environment.
