L de Lolita Lempicka

L de Lolita Lempicka was launched in 2006 and the fragrance was created by perfumer Maurice Roucel. The bottle was designed by Sylvie de France. From the perfume ad and the aquamarine, pebble heart shaped bottle with the golden net, this perfume reminds me a lot of the deep blue ocean and mermaids. Even though I have an affinity for mermaids, I'm not too fond of aquatic scent, which is why I steer clear from this perfume for years, thinking it as another harsh clean scent.  The only reason why I got this is because of the bottle, it's been discontinued for years and I wanted to get this before it's gone. So imagine my surprise when I first tried it on. Instead of being bombarded with screechy and sharp aquatic scent, I was left with a delicious oriental vanilla scent that conjures images of Christmas baking. I immediately regret not getting a full bottle of this years before it's been discontinued, lol. Top Notes Bitter orange,   Bergamot

        • THE DESIGN 

        • Dolce & Gabbana Dolce’s elegant packaging is reminiscent of a vintage fragrance flacon. Thick, clear glass with softly curved lines lending a contemporary design edge. The flower stopper pays tribute to Sicilian customs, crafted to portray the marzipan sculptures seen in traditional Sicilian confectioners. A thin black grosgrain ribbon, presented in an elegant bow, conjures images of the white shirts and bow-ties that were a signature of early Dolce & Gabbana catwalk shows. The final, and most personal, touch: Dolce signed in a flourish of black script, a replica of Domenico Dolce’s father’s own signature.



    • I love the design of their bottle, the flower shape bottle opening and black ribbon bow really gives off a feminine appeal to it's overall look. Scent wise, Dolce By Dolce & Gabbana opens up with a sweet citrusy burst of Neroli leaf and Papaya blossoms. As the top notes dissipate, the heart notes of White amaryllis, Narcissus and Water lily starts blending together, creating an overall blend of white floral scent, which smells slightly aquatic at this point. It then dries down to a soft and warm cashmere-like scent. An elegant scent with moderate silage, people will catch a whiff of this fresh and crisp scent as you walk past. Subtle and never too much.

        • Strictly for floral scent lovers, especially for those with a penchant for white floral scent, this is a good perfume to try. It last for hours on my skin and it slightly reminds me of another perfume, J'adore by Christian Dior, where  they both share characteristic of a clean soapy scent...a very expensive luxury soap scent.
