Sarah Jessica Parker Lovely

Having recently fallen back in love with SATC and SJP herself, I knew I had to purchase "Lovely" especially with how affordable it is for such a beautiful perfume. My previous experience with this perfume was me avoiding it, due to it being another "boring" celebrity perfume that i'd briefly sniffed once and wasn't impressed with so never bothered to give it a fair go again, and that was my view for years. Until mothers day this year and I was trying to find a fragrance for my mum, I eventually settled on a Juicy Couture fragrance, but ended up spraying "lovely" onto a tester strip to give it another go and I am so glad I did. Initially I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed it and surprised that I ever thought this fragrance was "boring", I hadn't planned on purchasing anything for myself so ended up walking away - tester strip in hand, walked around the store and couldn't stop sniffing it. It reminded me of a beloved fragrance my older sister has years ago - I couldn't and still can't get over how similar it smells and how nice it was to smell that familiar scent again. I ending up caving a purchased a 100ML bottle for about $30 which is a remarkably decent price. Its a light musk - very inoffensive, yet not unnoticeable, its is feminine yet in a classy way, and as SJP describes above its perfect for anyone of any age. I also loved reading about how she created this fragrance and how involved she was with the production. Its quite long lasting and sits upon the skin beautifully, I have received multiple complements on "Lovely" and am making up for lost time with this fragrance.

I was out shopping and saw this on sale for a good price. Also came recommended as a top seller. However I'm not a fan. I don't like the smell, it's quite musky and heavy to me. Reminds me of what a mum or an aunty would wear. I prefer sweet, floral and light scents. I'm not gonna keep it.

My friend got this for her birthday but she does not like this smell after a couple of hours. So she gave it to me as funny enough it smells totally different on me than on her. I just love the smell of it as I hate sweet flowery scents. At first it has a very stong smell but fades away a bit. I also love the fact that it stays on me for the entire day. Usually perfumes tend to fade after a few hours. This is great for a day and night smell.

I bought this fragrance because I heard great stuff about it but its just not for me. It comes in a cute little bottle, looks very feminine and is definitely quite reasonably priced but I'm not crazy about the scent. Maybe it just doesn't mix so well with my natural scent or clashes with the products I use but its just not me. I found it too strong at the initial spray and then too faint shortly after - which is strange because I am otherwise more inclined towards light scents.

I was given this perfume as a gift, and thought I'd love it. However, it's just not for me. The perfume comes in a cute little feminine bottle, but I just don't love the scent on my skin. The scent is really overpowering and too strong. Definitely not a favorite.

I love wearing this perfume for work! For some reason it gives a office vibe. Smells awesome and lasts for a while. Decently priced for the quantity and would definitely buy again when I run out

Not my absolute favorite. I's not a scent I'd personally pick for a night out, such as date night or a celebration. It is ok for the office, or an every day at home perfume. At first the scent is strong, but within a few hours it's less pungent.
