Serial Sampler #2

Today I am sharing another sample, which I received in last month’s Glossybox.

It is L’Amour by LALIQUE and it is a 2ml sample dabber of the eau de parfum. The card packet is quite appealing in a velvet pink shade with gold bordering and detailing.

“A sensuous floral fragrance, a love potion for absolute seduction”.
It smells really nice, fresh and delicate and you can really smell the rose and bergamot. It might be too floral for some people, but I think the other notes balance it out beautifully. I also love the dispenser. It is like a salt shaker and it makes it easier to apply, instead of the vile being open when you take the cap off. I would have preferred the regular spritzer though, but it’s only a sample and the full size bottles have the spritzer.

It is a lovely perfume, but I’m not sure I would buy it in a full size bottle! I love loads of perfumes, but I know the difference between me loving the scent and it being ‘my scent’. It is also quite expensive, so if you are interested in purchasing it, I would suggest checking sites like AllBeauty.com first to see if they have it on sale for a cheaper price.

What do you think of this perfume?
