About This Perfume
La Rive Madame in Love smells like powdery rose and peony with sweet citrus sparkle. It opens with citrus fruits and peony, moves into osmanthus, rose and fruity notes and settles on sandalwood and patchouli. It leans feminine, though anyone can wear it.
This eau de parfum is best in spring, summer and fall and is a daytime scent. A good pick for casual days and date nights.
In the community's experience 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 sweet for casual days.
- Sample first if: you have not smelled it before; it is not an easy blind buy.
- Skip if: you dislike sweet fragrances.
Around $20.
