I purchased the 50ml Vera Wang Lovestruck fragrances after reading all the rave reviews. Plus, looking at the notes and realizing how close they match my other favourites I thought it was a sure thing that i would love it.... however when it was delivered I found myself disappointed.
You can purchase it here: http://www.fragrancedirect.co.uk/vera-wang/vera-wang-lovestruck-edp-spray-50ml/invt/0037268 on special offer for £23.95. The normal RRP is £48 for 50ml.
This is a musky, sweet fragrance with a hint of floral. It smells like Priness's older sister.
However, the downside I find to this perfume is that it has very low sillage, and not very long staying power. But, if you overspray to overcome the sillage problem it quickly becomes very sickly smelling.
I dislike the bottle - I think it's incredibly tacky and makes the bottle difficult to travel with. Some people may like it as it looks girly, however, when put in place next to my other 'classier' bottles in the collection, it makes it look incredibly cheap.
I just think this is a kind-of meh fragrance. I quite like the initial smell but it doesn't stay around long enough on my skin for me to really enjoy it. I also think it's replicated in quite a lot of similar fragrances, and just don't think it's worth the RRP £48 pricetag!
Has anyone else tried this fragrance? What do you think of it?
