REVIEW: Cacharel Amor Amor


Notes: mandarin, black currant, melati blossom, lily of the valley, white musk, grey amber.

Pros: Juicy currant and mandarin anchored by warm light musks.

Cons: Might be a bit too sweet for some.

Development: Very well blended, opening with a strong currant note, and maintaining it through to the end.

Longevity: If applied liberally, a good 8 hrs.

Sillage: Pretty good. The amber really amplifies the sweeter aspects of the scent.

Reminds me of: Escada Tropical Punch, OP Juice

Where can I buy it? $34.95 for 100ml tester at BigDiscount.com

Bottleworthy? If you like sweeter, fruity scents, this might be exactly what you need!

The Bottom Line: First came Anais Anais, then came Lou Lou, now comes Amor Amor....This house sure has a thing for repeated names!

Ok, I'll admit it. I wear and enjoy this scent. I don't care who knows it. It reminds me of being a kid and drinking Hawaiin Punch on a hot Florida summer afternoon, sitting by the pool. Is there anything wrong with that?

Rating (out of 10): 7

What scent do you keep around specifically because it reminds you of your childhood?
