I am occasionally in the mood for violet, and I like Creed very much. I am looking for a Creed that would be full bottle worthy (I have a lot of manufacturers samples). Love in Black however is too...

Although I own several Creed fragrances Love in Black is my favorite! The soft sweet scent of violet is downright magical! The sweet powdery violet aroma makes me feel so gorgeous and ladylike. A...

Creed's are the only scents I buy for myself - they're absolutely gorgeous. I'm so sad to see so many reviews complaining, but your own skin chemistry and scent DO strongly affect how fragrances...

I love this scent. It agrees with my chemistry. It is a very different fragrance and the NM sales person told me that it is not for everyone. They sell more Love in White there than anything...

WARNING: This fragrance is not going to work well on everyone, but the ones that do (like myself) it is a knock out. I get so many compliments when I wear love in black it is amazing, like no other...

This lingers on me with a prominent stale popcorn aroma that is very unpleasant.

I don't know why this got so many mixed reviews. From the instant I sprayed this and wore it, it was love at first scent. This is truly a unique scent. It's a complex floral with spices, like...

I tend to be swept away by perfume bottle appearance, and this fragrance has a divine, edgy bottle, as well as a very appealing name. I always hope for some "black", dark feel in the scents I...

O hello sexy. Fellow violet lovers such as my self, this is a must! Personified, this fragrance would be a tale of tarnished innocence, a half consciousness. A sweet, innocent teenage girl...

Play-doh and melted plastic, with sickly violet. It never really changed from this on me, and lasted just a couple of hours. Ugh, thank goodness it was only a sample.

Violet scent, heavy on the cedar note. Like, many of the Creeds this has the potential to be a great fragrance if we took out one of its notes. In the present case I would be taking out the cedar...

I am Very disappointed with this one- great name, fab marketing technique, but this is where it ends..It's a rather expensive and poorly created rendition of violets. The notes don't mix in very...

The reviews for this fragrance are highly mixed, indicating to me that it reacts quite differently on different people. That being said, try before you buy. This is expensive. On me, Love in Black...

I wish I had the chemistry for this fragrance, but iris has never agreed with my skin, sadly. The opening violet notes are gorgeous, but once the iris settles in, the scent takes on a dominant,...
