 L'Interdit Eau de Parfum Rollerball

Daily

I went in Ulta to get some new fragrances. Initially I went in the store and purchased two other rollerball perfumes. That day I picked up L'interdit and frowned at the scent. Weeks later I purchased the item based on reviews mentioning the grape scent. I wore the perfume that day and fell in LOVE. I learned sometimes you can't go by initial scent especially when you are in a store testing multiple fragrances. You really have to let it marinate on your skin to get a total appreciation of this scent. I like sweet perfumes and this one has a grape frozen ice scent. It's sweet but mature and sophisticated at the same time. This is a very unique scent and I don't like smelling like everyone else. I have purchased a full bottle and I'm looking forward to smelling the flankers. LOVE LOVE LOVE this one.

This scent is a sweet, fruity floral with something a little synthetic about it that lasts about 8 hours on me and projects moderately (I leave a scent trail, but I'm not fuming everyone in the elevator at work type of projection). It's certainly controversial, and in the summer weather I find that the opening smells almost dead on for grape Fanta (which I don't have a problem with personally, but it's not a scent for everyone given that it runs VERY CLOSE to sickly sweet), but as it dries down it becomes a super sweet floral that I love. If you like sweet perfumes, this may be one to try

I love this perfume so much. I bought the rollerball to try it out while doing various tasks (work, play, dates, all in the Florida heat). It definitely exceeded my expectations & I will be buying the full size as soon as this ones gone.

The initial scent is so light and playful, I thought of Dolce & Gabbana's L'impératrice which was the one I decided to get after spending what felt like forever in the fragrance department. Unfortunately, there were none available at the time. I made a list of favorites to look at because I wanted something like Tocca's Stella, a personal fave and I wish Ulta carried that line. However, L'interdit was the only one on my list I didn't find a tester of, and I was about to concede my quest for a new scent when I found the last rollerball of this one! I got it and I was not at all disappointed! I actually love that it is not a spray style and the transition from initial scent to where it settled was an intriguing one, and also surprising. I'm excited to see what it's like at the end. But everyone's skin picks up every perfume so differently, you always have to try it on you to see how it takes. It does not smell powdery or "too mature", but it is different. It's the one you notice at a party, not right away, in the spot light, but the one that seems to irresistibly pull your attention, no matter what you do. It's an incredible scent, but it's not a people-pleasurer nor the majority's cup of tea, and that's ok too. But if you have the chance, definitely check it out, it's unique
