About This Perfume
Think fresh lychee peony rose bouquet: that is La Rive Cuté. It opens with freesia, peony and lychee, moves into rose, magnolia and lily and settles on amber and cedarwood. It leans feminine, though anyone can wear it.
This eau de parfum is best in spring, summer and fall and is a daytime scent. It suits casual days and date nights. Released in 2012.
Wearers report that it lasts a solid half day on skin, and projects to about arm's length.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something floral and powdery for casual days.
- Sample first if: floral is new territory for you.
- Skip if: you dislike fresh fragrances.
Around $14.
