Advantages: smells divine, the bottle (or the lid) is beautiful, long lasting
Disadvantages: none
Vera Wang Lovestruck is a perfume I received as a gift from my auntie last year in a gift set.
The eau de parfum came in a 30ml bottle.
~ Bottle ~
The bottle is rectangular shaped with clear chunky glass. It has the word 'Lovestruck' in bright pink lettering going diagonally across the front of the bottle, with an arrow going diagonally through the word.
'Vera Wang' is written underneath in small pink lettering.
The perfume itself is tinged pink, but only slightly (not like in Dooyoo's picture).
The bottle does not look too small, like I have found with some perfumes, even though it only contains 30ml of perfume, partly owing to the chunky glass and partly owing to the huge lid.
The lid is a dark purple colour and is made from plastic. It sits over the similarly coloured spray button on the top of the bottle. The top of the lid is rounded and has 3 large dark purple plastic flowers attached to it. The flowers are rigid and made from plastic so cannot be moved and they are cup shaped, like tulips with deep cups.
The lid also has a large dark purple coloured mesh bow which is tied around the bottom of the lid underneath the flowers, so the lid has rather a lot going on.
The flowers, being plastic, may sound as if they look a little bit tacky, but they are a nice deep purple colour and they point out at different angles, instead of being symmetrical and I don't think it looks tacky at all.
The bottle, without the lid is quite plain and the bright pink wording along with the rectangular glass bottle reminds me of a perfume that The Body Shop make, which is a lot cheaper than this perfume is.
I think the lid makes this bottle and if it had a plain lid instead I wouldn't think much of this bottle at all.
With its lid, this bottle is cute, girly and outrageous - a real statement. I really like the bottle along with its busy lid.
~ Price and availability ~
Vera Wang's Lovestruck perfume is available in Boots, Debenhams, House of Fraser and most other department stores.
It is available in a 30ml bottle from House of Fraser for £35.00.
The 50ml bottle is available in Boots or House of Fraser for £48.00 (the bigger bottles have even more flowers and an even bigger bow on the lid).
The 100ml bottle is £62.00 from House of Fraser.
~ Scent ~
The perfume has a very feminine scent.
On the website, www.verawanglovestruck.com it says, 'Lovestruck is about the emotion and rush you feel when you are falling in love and going for it... those heart-pounding moments of spontaneity'!
It contains top notes of pink guava and angelica blossom, heart notes of tuberose and aquatic lotus flower with musk forming the perfume's base.
It is a very floral and feminine fragrance, but it does have a light fruity element, which sweetens the fragrance slightly.
I think the scent is lovely and to me it stands out from other fruity floral perfumes. It is flirtatious, pretty, cosy and warming with a real kick to it. Its sharp floral notes are softened by the sparse fruitiness. It is not offensive or too harsh at all.
I have found that the perfume is long lasting on my skin, still detectable after 12 hours of wear.
I think this is suitable for day time and casual wear as well as special occasions or nights out.
It is such a lovely scent.
I'd say this perfume would be better suited to younger women. It is a clean, uncluttered, floral fragrance and it reminds me of being young and full of energy.
I am really pleased that I received this fragrance as I absolutely love it.
~ Conclusion ~
I would definitely recommend this perfume. It is such a nice scent. It is floral, clean and unique.
I would definitely buy another bottle of this if my bottle was to run out.
My 30ml bottle came in a gift set alongside a body lotion and shower gel, which I also love and the price was left on the bottom of this gift set. It cost £38.00, so I would not buy the 30ml bottle on its own for £35.00, but I think the bigger bottles are well worth their asking prices.
Summary: 5/5!
