On the tester paper it smelt amazing so I bought it. On my skin was a different story. This fragrance smells like aniseed/liquorice, and it's overwhelming. It's "staying" power is excellent, which for me wasn't a good thing because the scent made me feel sick after a while because it's so strong. Just not the scent for me.

Diesel Lovedose
Diesel Loverdose allegedly possesses molecules that stimulate hypothalamus, the part of the brain responsible for attraction and lust. The very composition is floral – spicy, opening with star anise and mandarin. Sambac jasmine, licorice and gardenia petals form the core of the composition, placed on an oriental base of amber, vanilla and woody notes.
The bottle is symbolically designed to resemble a heart – shaped diamond pierced by an arrow, coloured in intense shades of purple. The face of the fragrance is a young model Ashley Smith.

Ick! not for me - smells like the original lolita lempicka (herbal licorice notes) gone off on me with a whiff of a super sweet sugary berry note not unlike Jovan's black musk. Alot of people seem to love this but personally I will steer clear.
Truly I don't get it either. Highly sort after and rated I thought I'd just buy it on a whim. I hated it. And I can't even figure out why. One spray and I gave it away. Vanilla and woody is my usual go to go fragrance, so I thought I'd really love it. Sad face central.
To be honest I was a bit let down by this fragrance. I got lost with what I think is the liquorice note. It had a overpowering longevity, the headache kind. I get what diesel was trying to muster but don't think they quite hit it!
Tips: Easy on the wearing of this one ladies
I had wanted to buy this for a few months and I finally treated myself. I bought the smallest size available (wish now I had bought the bigger size just for the bottle, as I am unsure whether I would re-purchase)
I like the scent, it's soft, feminine, not overly floral and with vanilla mid-tones. slightly spicy but not overpowering. I think the fragrance is a flirty feminine good allround or everyday perfume. It should be long-lasting as it is a Eau de Parfum but I found it faded after just a few hours. I find if I am heavy handed then it lasts a bit longer
I adore this perfume! It's not my absolute favourite but it IS amazing. I really cannot stand licorice (one of the core compositions of this fragrance) yet this just smells divine. It's warm, heavy & creamy & it lingers on the skin all day.
This is the perfect fragrance for a night out or on a first date as it has just the right amount of "sexiness" I can't get enough!
Tips: Not ideal for summer wear as the notes are very creamy & warm. Much better suited for cooler weather or evenings.
I received this perfume as a gift and it knocked my socks off. The bottle is stunning and makes a perfect addition to your fragrance table. The scent is very alluring and sexy - floral with a woody undertone. My husband also approves. The scent lasts a good while, but not as long as other scents I have tried.
Tips: The perfect date fragrance!
The bottle is what drew me to this perfume as its a unique and alluring shape, especially for a collector. the smell itself is devine and defintally one of my go to scents when its coller outside. Im usually drawn to anything vanilla based asnd this has a nice hit of it, as well as amber and woody notes. I brought a part bottle a few months back and have recently been gifted one a week or so back :D Im one very happy lady!
Tips: Wear on cooler days to warm your scents up with the amber and vanilla.
This favourite of mine from Diesel is like woman & man mixed together at the same time. It evokes being in Love & entwined by Loves hold on you.... Pricier than other perfumes but worth it's penny. The bottle is lovely in LOVE HEART design & collectible. Fragrance lasts the distance.
I have seen a lot of rave reviews for Loverdose so I decided to buy it online without smelling it first. I went for the 30ml bottle which cost around $60.
First off the bottle is absolutely gorgeous! A stunning purple diamond shaped heart which looks like it has been pierced with an arrow.....I love it!
Now for the scent....I took the cap off and had a sniff and already knew I wouldn't like it, it smelt super strong and floral. I was hesitant to put it on my skin as I didn't want it upsetting my baby so I waited until night time and I sprayed a little bit on.
It's far too strong for me, I don't know why but it reminds me of when a smoker puts perfume on to cover up the smoke smell....it smelt like an ashtray. I actually got a wipe and tried to remove it but I could smell it all night long.
I don't know how this has so many good reviews, maybe it just smells horrible on me. I would recommend testing in a shop first before purchasing which I guess is what normal people do lol. Glad I only got the small bottle!
