Its a good perfume, what I like about it is that it smells good and different from all the rest with out trying to hard or smelling typical. It doesn't last long though, which is alright as long as you get the body lotion, shower gel ,mini spray and what ever else they have available. To me I see this perfume as being a fun, summery perfume-not citrus- I like it

There are certain smells that I love and that I cannot stop smelling myself...and this is one of them. It's too bad that my extra inhaling leaves not much left for anyone else! I just found this 1.7 oz. eau de parfum today at Marshall's for $24 so I'm not complaining that much about the price. This smell kind of takes me back to high school when I was obsessed with Ralph Lauren Romance...and my mom wore Lancome Miracle. I might be the only one who would say this but I kind of detect a little bit of a mix of the two. In the beginning I smelled that strong "perfumy" smell which died down to a light floral musk. I always like Miracle on my mom, but it always went sour on me so this is a good compromise. This is definitely a safe buy for those who enjoy warmer scents.

I really love the smell of Lovestruck, but it has ZERO staying power! It lasts minutes. Even spraying it on my clothes, the scent is gone!!

My poor honey got this for me for Xmas....ohhh how he got ripped off. I am a fragrance junky and he was searching for a fragrance/designer I did not have & stumbled on this one after sneaking peeks at my fragrance shelves, how sneaky! I was so excited when I saw this & very proud he showed so much effort in selecting, but..... what a waste of $ Sure it smells heavenly....for about 5 minutes max if that. Something this expensive should never ever go away completely in 5 minutes! I mean I cannot even smell it lingering in the room I sprayed it (yes that bad) The bottle is horribly garish with that lid...mercy me, I am not 15yrs old & NOT even sure what the heck that dark mess is supposed to be, just annoys me as the bottle is so big & cumbersome, stands out like an ugly sore thumb on my shelf of pretty bottles. Save your $$ as you can get a quality fragrance for same price if not less!

I ordered this online without trying it out , after reading about it----a gamble...and guess what? It was worth it, Im happy!

One word to describe this parfume would be Gorgeous.
- On me it settles as being medium sweet not overly sweet, very fresh, fruity, slightly sparkly and somewhat woody and musky scent, it has a grown up edge to it - since I love light fragrances, I would not describe it as being too light but it is a light/medium scent and yes LOVESTRUCK does come to mind when I smell this- a slight plasticy scent appears after a few minutes and then dissapears within minutes but i think it is the mandarin (like a tropical one) - I cant smell the Guava on me- the woods and the sheer musk is there but queite sweet- If you deslike sweet scents then this is not for you- howoever it is suitable for various ages I think. The colors used for the packaging are sooo pretty although some people may think the plastic flowers look alittle cheap and tacky (but silk flowers could break even more easily)- and hard to travel with travel with it incase it breaks- could box the edp though if travellling far.

The neon pink writing may attract the younger market more and the elegant lid could attract all possible parfum lovers, carefully designed I think (dual object in mind) its v romantic, the writing may be less elegant than something like Jo malone/Romance (Ralph Lauren) but I think that it is because this product is aimed at all ages...for me the packaging is lovely romantic yet with a fresh edge and thats how I would also describe the contents- could make a lovely gift/side gift for wedding etc too as it is suitable for day and night- less powdery and more sweet in comparison to the Ralph Lauren Romance.

I adore sweet scents and so I prefer this to the Gucci Envy Me too- but fragrances should always be tried as they don't all work alike with everyones body chemistry. The staying power is not as great as the Gucci and Chanels but unlike the former I dont get headaches, my Chanel and Dior scents frequently give me a headache and I can always smell the alcohol in them- I cant smell the alcohol in this Vera Wang scent. I would wear this to work and on a night out- THE SCENT AS LOVELY AS IT IS... DISAPPEARED AFTER ABOUT AN HOUR OF WEARING IT- Chanel Chance (original pink) is also sweet maybe less musky with a nice scent and lasts much longer all day (too powerful; headache type for me). I have noticed the Chanel, Dior and Gucci scents last much longer than many others - they have the best staying power I think, but I get a headache from Dior and Chanel - I have tried most, Cartier and Arabian Oud (many fragrances non alcoholic ) do excellent fragrances with excellent staying power.

UPDATE: NO STAYING POWER ; DISAPPOINTING ; IF GIFTED IT WOULD BE AN AN EMBARRASSMENT DUE TO STAYING POWER!

Ok to me 3 scents that smell exactly the same on my skin are: Lovestruck, Prada Candy & Prada Infusion d'Iris, I already own the 2 Prada's so there is no need for me to buy Lovestruck but its bottle is super cute. Some have said the staying power is horribe but I find that most perfume only last a few hours anyway so as long as it lasts a few hours I am happy. Some I have tried last a whole 2minutes (someday by justin beiber I'm looking at u) but for great staying power the Prada's I mentioned last forever & a day especially Infusion D'Iris. :-) all 3 of these to me smell like sweet caramel, LOVE them!

I think this fragrance is totally over priced and to tell you the truth, I feel ripped off.

Here's the thing. I love the scent. The crispness of the first spray that fades to a woody-citrus scent is quite nice. But it does not last more than 4 hours and like other reviewers said, that's a body spray, not a perfume.

Since I have the huge 3.4 ounce bottle I'll just use it more liberally than I would with other more expensive perfumes. But I expected more, especially after paying nearly $70 for this "perfume".

Mrs. Wang, you did us wrong. Will not buy again.

I bought the rollerball version of this to test it out before buying the full size. The cap does not twist all the way on and stay straight with the square shape. But other than that it's a very pretty container. The scent is a little woodsy, fruity, and floral. It seems to last a few hours and with the rollerball I can just grab it out of my purse and add a few more dabs. I might get the full size because I do love the smell but gosh is it expensive! Plus the flower on top looks very fragile, and that tulle will be in the trash for sure.

My specialty is fragrances. And this does not last. It is overpriced and similar to other Vera Vang Fragrances. I don't recommend this, plus the total tacky top makes me wanna gag.

Such a fun, flirty fragrance! I love this. It is so fruity-floral and smells like heaven! I've had it for a while and I love it. It is a very wearable young fragrance. Suitable for all times of day.

My husband bought this for me last mothers day. It was the ginormous bottle with lotion gift set...It musta set him back a pretty penny, because the perfume itself is really pricy!!!
I love the smell--It's soft and pretty and not overwhelming. I love how it blends with my body chemistry. The scent lingers all day but isn't overpowering. I absolutely love love love the bottle too--so pretty!!
The only negative thing I could say is the price is insane--like $75 for the 3 oz bottle or whatever the big size is. You can't even get a discount online anywhere. I have to say though, the bottle lasted me a good year or almost... I used it only alternating occasionally with my signature perfume, Halo.
When I can force myself into spending this much money on perfume, I'm going to get another bottle and be happy :) Until then, I'll just use up my Halo and keep dreaming...

This fragrance strikes a lovely balance between fruit, floral, and woody notes. I purchased one of those Sephora sets that lets you try 10 samples of perfume, then pick one full-sized bottle out of those choices. The coffret included Miss Pucci, Hanae Mori Butterfly, Flower by Kenzo, and a variety of other popular fragrances. They were all nice, but that was it--just nice. Sweet florals are the going standard these days, so the dry woodiness of Lovestruck leaped from amongst the pack. I don't get tuberose and musk at all really, but those notes are so overused these days I don't much miss them. Lovestruck has a slightly tropical berry scent that's not at all syrupy. There is really no progression from the first spritz, so there is not much complexity, and it lasts about 4 hours on me. Yet there is a lovely balance from the woods that makes it a slightly more mature and elegant perfume than many other contemporary fragrances. It makes a nice bridge for someone young to take the step from fruity florals to dryer, deeper fragrances.

I got this perfume as a gift, and I must say that it has THE prettiest bottle I have ever seen. The cap has a large, decorative cluster of purple flowers wrapped in sheer ribbons, which makes it a pain to store on your vanity but still gorgeous to look at.


That being said, the actual perfume was less impressive. It had weak staying power (an average of 4 hours on me, which is about the same as a body spray!) and the smell didn't blow me away. It smells like berries at first, then dries into a warm, raspberry-like scent that fades pretty rapidly. It's certainly not a BAD scent and it's a nice change from all the floral and woody scents out there, but it just smells a lot cheaper than it is. I'm positive there are better and longer-lasting scents at Bath n Body Works.

This is a decent perfume. It's very faint though, I wish I bought a smaller bottle so that I could carry around with me. Its a subtle scent, which is why I think it's good for everyday use. I wish I read reviews on this first because I impulsively bought this. The only way I make it last is if I spray it in my hair, because the natural oils in my hair are moisturized and the perfume sticks to it. I wear these on the day when I don't want to where something too loud. It lacks personality, but it still has sophistication. I will never buy this product again because I bought the biggest bottle you could get, it's most likely going to last almost a decade due to the fact I don't use it excessively nor often.

Lasting fragrance!!!! I forgot I had this in my purse (sample size bottle) sprayed 1 spritz just on my arm and it lasted all day even when I went to the gym and sweated my butt off on the stairmaster. 1 spritz is really all you need. Its def one of those perfumes that will have people asking what you are wearing because it smells so good.

I love this. I love it so much that I can not wait to purchase. I was at Sultan looking for a fragrance and lovestruck came my way. It reminds me of diocese and gabana's perfume. I cant think of the name, but its in the blue bottle. The thing I love the most is this is a soft scent that lasts. I sprayed this on the back of my hands. This was at 2:30. Its now 6:20 and my hands still smell good, which is an amazing feat since I washed dishes, and cooked dinner. Love it!

This is overall a nice berry scent, but a bit too shy for my taste..I couldnt recognize it amongst other scents out there...it is typical of Vera Wang, her scents are quite light, and young in an innocent way.longevity is poor
.but amongst the fruity berry scents out there, it would hold its own for sure!

I am very finicky about fragrances, usually preferring woodsy, spicy scents. I was really surprised by how much I like Lovestruck. The floral first note isn't too cloying and it dries down to a beautiful, youthful, more earthy scent. It has more staying power on me than on other reviewers, but that's probably because of chemistry. It's difficult to base a fragrance purchase off other women's reviews since perfumes smells so different on each individual person. The only thing I can't stand about this scent is the ridiculous bottle. It's way too girly and feminine for me. I hide it in my hall closet since my style is much more spare and streamlined. Oh well... at least the scent works for me!
