Love this scent, has a light citrus scent in my opinion. I don't like vanilla scented things or things that smell too sweet, and this has neither of those so I love it. It reminds me of Pure Seduction except Love Spell isn't as sweet. It''s the best Victoria's Secret scent to me. I recommend getting the body mist though because it's bigger and lasts longer and the scent is pretty much the same in terms of how powerful it is. They are really identical with the eu de toilette maybe being 10% stronger which isn't that noticeable.

I think Love Spell smells like Sweetarts...my ex boyfriend LOVE this one as well as Sweet Temptation so consequently I don't wear them anymore due to bad mental associations, but as a fragrance I liked them.

Oh, Love Spell. For some reason, every guy I've ever met knows this scent and loves it. I've never experienced that before. It seems they can tell it from a mile away!

I find this to be a great, summery scent. It's not too heavy, but if sprayed too generously it can start to smell pretty overpowering. To me it smells very fruity, which isn't something I always go for. I prefer Stella by Stella McCartney or Sinner by Kat von D, but this is a great standby. For less than $10 a bottle, it's a good scent to have handy, especially in a pinch.

Oh love spell. Such a nostalgic fragrance. As everyone else has said, it reminds me of college. I use to love it, but then I discovered more spicy scents and those are still what I usually prefer. However, just last night my husband and I were sniffing through my (very large)perfume collection. We stumbled across this and he told me it's the scent he most associates with me. Weird. I think it's because I wore it all the time when we first met. So...for that fact, and because my husband likes it, Love Spell gets a four. Not something I will wear all the time, but a little gem all the same.

This is very sweet, which I do like, however, I like Pure Seuction better,. That scent is more juicy and better smelling in my opinion. Love Spell is just lacking something for me.

I don't really smell this everywhere around me (even though I know this is one of the most popular VS scents) but perhaps my chemistry just reacts differently with this than most that what I might smell often just isn't how Love Spell smells on me.


However with this said, the scent is a bit flat but not bad. It's a really realistic peach-mango scent with a minor almost invisible floral note. I can't find it sickening because it doesn't come off very artificial to me however I wish it was a bit more complex... though for $9.50 and from Victoria's Secret I wasn't exactly expecting much. I like this scent during low maintenance days during warmer weather. It's a fresh fruity splash without seeming plastic, fake, or too young. However the strong fruit note to this makes it a very summery scent. Not really something I'd pick up on days to work or nights out but there are days where I want to smell light and more simplistic that I do pick it up. The EDT lasting power from Victoria's Secret is okay in my opinion. It lasts a good few hours before it becomes really subtle however if Love Spell was an EDP it would honestly be TOO much.

Price: Prices varies because sometimes VS has their special 5 for $25 sales but the pricing is pretty cheap...

Packaging: Plain packaging. The juice is purples and the bottle has a fower on it nothing spectacular..

Smell: I bought in to the hype of love spell.. As another reviewer said everyone and their momma was wearing it. I thought that it would be good. I purchased a EDT to complete the 5 for $25 deal and i HATE it. It is overly sweet and sickening. It smells like a bunch of citris fruit squeezed together into this little bottle. The lotion to me smells even worst. i will not repurchase,,

Lasting Power: i would say 3/5 if you layer with lotion and use the shower gels 4/5.. You will still smell it on your skin but others will not be able to smell it..

I don't why I bought this, I don't even like fruity scents.

What it smells like to me:
- mango
- some kind of citrus fruit
- some kind of flower
- burnt rubber

pros:
- very cheap ($10 a bottle)
- very popular

cons:
-every highschool girl and her grandmother (no offense) wears this
-no lasting power
-extremely artificially fruity. Sometimes sickening. (I wore this today and I felt nauseated)

Would not rebuy.

I will start by saying I probably own close to 200 fragrances, so I have been around the block with scents LOL. The first time I tried Love Spell it moved into my top 5 all time favorite scents of those 200 fragrances. It actually made me wonder why I ever even owned anything but this! WOW it smells absolutely wonderful, fresh, fun, fruity. It definately has me under it's love spell.


The notes in it are predominately cherry blossom, red apple and georgia peaches to my nose. I can't believe I lived to be 34 and just now discovered this ultra sexy fun fragrance:) I will be buying the line in this scent definately:) It's just a really pretty scent and I can see it being wonderful for spring ♥

This EDT is the strongest, sweetest version of Love Spell with the body spray smelling cleaner, and the lotion being more citrus but also the longer lasting of the 3. It's nice for what it is and I'll wear this when I want a sweet, clean, fruity scent. But it doesn't last too long, so I prefer to wear the lotion layered with the body spray. Would repurchase though just because it's nice in its own way.

When I first smelled Love Spell, I HATED it. I thought it smelled way too fruity. But then for some reason I decided to give it another try and now I really like it. Weird, I know. The only gripe I have about it is that it hardly lasts more than like 10 minutes. I wish it lasted longer. :(

I had promised myself that I would not subcome to the VS fruity fragrances, but I really like this one. I wore it to work for the first time today, and I was told I smelled nice by my kids. Also, I was giving someone a birthday hug, and I said what smells so good. It was me! Anyway, I don't really smell the flowers in this, but it's o.k. It makes me feel very girly, and I don't feel it's a young scent al all. I think anyone can wear this. The kids' said I smelled like punch. They liked it. Kids are honest!

This is one of those scents that mystifies me. It smells awesome when I smell it on other people, but when I wear it myself it just doesn't seem to smell quite the same. My fiance, however, loves this fragrance. He says it is one of his top picks out of all of my fragrances (which is a lot). I don't hate it, but it just doesn't have a wow factor for me. It is a nice scent to keep around because sometimes I am just in the mood to wear it.

As for the EDT itself, it starts out strong but fades pretty quickly on me. I usually carry it in my purse to use for a midday application and use the body spray for a morning spritz. Like the other Garden scents, this is best when layered with other products.

I am a big fan of this line from VS because it works well with my body chemistry and no one around here shops at VS. The scent doesn't give me a headache and my boyfriend doesn't seem to mind.

However, I have to layer several products for the scent to last. The EDT doesn't have very much lasting power. It's a shame.

I have to admit that fragrance scent is a personal preference thing, and you will find people disagree a lot of time. This is my favorite scent from VS garden series. I started with lotion, and purchased an EDT during the sale. I decided to write the review just from a general EDT point of view. This formula have NO LASTING POWER. It's gone like 10 minutes after I spread. It seriously have no performance as an EDT.

I've always loved fragrances but recently I've become less tolerant with scents even with ones I used to like. Some have been giving me headaches. Not with Love Spell - still smells great to me! Everytime I use this and hug somebody they always say I smell soooooo good- smells so sweet and fresh! Puts me in a positive mood whenever I wear it.

I am a huge fan of Love Spell. Yes, I know it's very popular, and you smell it everywhere you go, but that doesn't stop me from loving this scent. It's so fruity and uplifting. I don't wear this on a daily basis, but I do wear it often especially in the summertime. I just find it so fresh and sexy. I adore the punch smell. Just makes me feel happy. I have the entire line of Love Spell, which I received as a gift. I just used up the body lotion, which i love, and am now using the EDT and body splash. I like the body splash better than the EDT, but because of this great scent, I love everything about the line. I use my EDT on special occasions, since I normally don't use perfume. I am more of a spritzer kind of person. Anyway, for this review on the EDT, I highly reccomend it. I think if you enjoy using Love Spell, you'll like wearing this version if it. It's fantastic!

I love this scent. It's so fresh, girly, sweet, tart, and clean all at once. My boyfriend really loves it, too. A fun fruity floral - and I'm not usually big on anything floral. I also agree with the jolly ranchers remark, lol- it does have a candyish kick to it, which, in my opinion, makes it more delicious smelling, but not in a teeny bopper way. The EDT lasts a pretty long time on me (a few hours.)

Gross, gross, gross! I absolutely hate Love Spell. Super sweet, cloying, almost candy-like. But not candy I would eat, candy I'd throw away.
