Advantages: Nice looking bottle.
Disadvantages: It's made by Jennifer Lopez!
There have been mixed reactions to this scent, since it was introduced to the market in 2002. Some people love it, some hate it, and some it just grows on. Personally, i love it.
What made me try this scent initially, was the look of the bottle. Wandering into boots one day, a tester bottle on the perfume counter caught my eye, so i went over for a closer look and a little test of it. Only when i got over, did i see what it was called, and who it was made by. My initial reaction was "oh no, it's not her again!" I am not a fan of Jennifer Lopez at all, but i looked past everything associated with her, and had a quick spray anyway....... and loved the scent!
Several weeks later, not having the money to buy it there and then, i was over the moon to see that my parents had bought me some after their foreign holiday! And i still love the scent.
~The Scent~
Is very fresh, sexy, hmmm irresistable! I guess you could say that this is the image that J'Lo herself likes to portray. It is very feminine, the very essence of J'Lo really. It smells quite sensual, with citrus fruits, florals, vanilla and musk. It's pretty provocative and subtle, makes you want to get closer and get a better smell of it. If you do this, then you will be able to distinguish: oranges, grapefruit, rose, sandalwood and jasmine. Overall, i would say it is a soft, sexy yet subtle scent, which is very fresh and clean smelling. It smells quite natural, so would be ideal for daytime use, and it lasts all day without being strong and over-bearing.
~The Bottle~
This is what made me notice this perfume. It is very eye catching. It has a long 'neck' which tapers into a curvy 'body'. In my opinion, the shape of the bottle represents a female's upper body. This is all the more so considering the jewellery adorned on the body, which are a couple of chains, or necklaces, with a tag saying J'Lo on. The bottle jewellery is very much inspired by J'Lo ' s personal touches, they look expensive and very 'bling bling' !!!
It is a very unique looking spray bottle, it definately stands out from the others.
~The Packaging~
It comes in a tall box, which is very soft and velvety to the touch. I think this finish is meant to be quite sensual, and makes me think it is meant to represent skin.
Every aspect of this scent is made to represent Jennifer Lopez in one way or another.
~Cost~
100ml £38
30ml £20
Summary: A versatile scent, suitable for any occasion.

- 06/03/06 Perhaps the shape of the bottle is subtly supposed to reflect the size of J Lo's bum! ;-) Susie |
