Heartfelt love captured in a fragrance. A contemporary take on the eternal symbol of love: the rose. Inspired by the perfect love between two people, P.S. I Love You encapsulates the giddy excitement and shared secrets of timeless love. A timeless yet refreshingly modern take on the classic bloom, P.S. I Love You reinterprets the rose with an exotic blend of alluring ingredients, creating a modern fragrance that exudes addictive femininity.
P.S. I Love You joins the Signature Collection line as the latest expertly blended fragrance created by the world’s top perfumers. Among fragrance aficionados and Bath & Body Works shoppers alike, Signature Collection scents are considered a best-kept secret—carefully calibrated blends of superior ingredients for a fraction of the cost of prestige brands.
The master perfumer behind P.S. I Love You combined velvet rose and pink peony with golden amber and exotic incense to create a fragrance that evokes pure love. For this project, Symrise perfumer Dave Apel chose to take a more sophisticated approach to rose and explore its mystery, sensuality and intoxicating characteristics. “P.S. I Love You builds a sensual, amber warmth on a canvas of black roses as sparkling fruits and watery lychee lend the fragrance a youthful quality,” Apel explains. “The fragrance takes the vintage appeal of a classic rose and surrounds it with exuberant freshness for a totally modern experience.”

This is the most appealing smell from Bath&Body Works
I really like it, i do not find it aimlessly being a fruity-floral... I feel like it has got its own story, instead of trying to be extremely mainstream.
Or maybe there was something wrong with my nose? I just ordered it and have not received it as of yet...
I don't like this. This is the type of floral scent that smells 'old lady' to me. And there is a strange chemical smell that's migraine inducing. I don't blame it on the fragrance's strength or projection, I have perfumes that are heavier than this, without being migraine inducing.
Powdery rose, and a lot of alcohol, not the type of rose fragrance that is fresh and bright (like fresh-cut roses), but a rose fragrance more suited as potpourri on a dresser and not as perfume.
It's my fault, though, I bought this blindly. Good thing my maid loves it.
It's a powdery, slightly spicy rose scent. I've never been a fan of rose, but I think rose lovers would really enjoy this. I can see why it was discontinued though. I've smelled more memorable rose fragrances elsewhere. :/
There are few rose-based scents that work with me. This is NOT one of them. It smells lovely and light on a few other women I've met at work but on myself, it's heavy, powdery, dusty rose. Blech! I have been trying desperately to get rid of this body spray (not by using it on myself, of course) and it just won't empty... Oh well, at least it smells nice on certain people.
A friend of mine was given this for Christmas, it was not her style, nor mine smelling it out of the bottle. And it is not my favorite smell, Sand and Sable, tendre Poison, flowery smells are ones I like, but once I put it on...... I recieved so many compliments!!!!
I never receive compliments! My skin never retains the scent either, but this one sticks around all day! It mixes with my chemistry and forms a scent that I love and apparently so do others. I drive a truck for a living, have for 12 years now. Have only received one compliment once on the Sweet Pea scent. But this one.... I have people sidling up to me, smelling me on purpose and asking what I am wearing!
I have been looking for that scent that will stay and be "my scent" my entire life. I am so disappointed that they Dc'd this. They told me to try Paris Amour, but it is not the same... way too much vanilla.
very strong, very floral. almost gives me heart burn lol. i don't hate it, its alright but not something i would buy again. its overpowering and doesnt wash off.
I only wear this when going out or at night. I am a more fruity/ fresh scent type, but my boyfriend loves this. I the blend of light floral scents are nice, but too strong for my taste to wear at work, and the perfume gives me a headache. But for some reason I can wear the lotion, as its not as strong. The body spray and perfume smell really alcohol-ey, but I am glad this scent doesn't smell too sweet or like vanilla and musk at the end of the day like most BBW scents.
I figured this would be a boring, carbon copy floral just from hearing the name. However, at my great-grandmother's house about a month ago, my hands were dry and I desperately needed lotion. A bottle of this was on her sink, so I figured, "Ehh, better floral hands than dry hands."
I was pleasantly surprised. An ultra girly and yet not overpowering or boring floral. Sweet, cute, and approriate for ladies of all ages.
very rose/floral and also woody to my nose. it starts of very alcoholy to me, but that quickly fades to the floral/wood that i seem to smell. its not long lasting as i thought it would be because it does go on strong. i reapply this often. i think you could also wear this day or evening. i would give it a 6 out of 10.
P.S. I love you is an incredibly lovely perfume for both its scent and its allusion to a great Beatles song! The different scents are incredibly sweet and strong on me, which proved to be very convenient for eliminating the smell of chlorine after swimming. No matter what reviews it may get, I will always have a soft spot for this perfume. I know for a fact that I'm not the only fan since I wore this perfume when I got my first kiss, and the person I was with really liked it too!
Love this marvelous combination: riesling, rose and patchouli!!! Those are what I smell when I wear this. The sharpness of the riesling combined with the soft rose and patchouli make this one of my favorites. I am sorry they are discontinuing this.
My skin just projects certain things. For this P.S. I Love You, it smells peachy fruits, floral, and incense/sadalwood. Everytime I use this, I think of Burberry Body without the powderyness. I hope I could find someone else to agree... Sigh.
Body Spray review. I love this one it is such a nice floral. I can really smell the peony, and orchid mixed with a tad bit of incense. Unfortunatly it only lasts about an hour although I can still smell a bit of the musky amber that the dry-down has. It's very pretty and a little more complex for B&BW. I don't know if the EDT EDP lasts longer then the spray, but if it does then it is worth getting (pending you can find it) Best for Spring Summer Daytime wear :)
This is not your typical sharp and clearly defined summer rose scent. P.S. I Love You is more of a cool weather rose scent. Warm, woody, ambery. With some depth and smokyness (created by the incencse) Casual yet kinda romantic.
P.S. I Love You (IMO) is a great summer to fall transitional fragrance for those of us who suffer from the"end of summer blues" as it seems to have a very calming and comforting effect.
Longevity and projection are excellant. (This one definately draws compliments.)
It is going to be discontinued :(
This is actually one of BBW scents that is somewhat original. All of their scents are so heavily laced with vanilla and/or musk at the end, that they become nothing but trash and hardly desirable.
The very first whiff of P.S. I Love You while in the body souffle is amazing; I smell the beautiful richness of rose muted with amber. To my nose it is rich, unique and somewhat mysterious, without being heavy or too spicy. HOWEVER, the very minute the product hits my skin it is ALL incense--the kind used at church. It loses all its dark floral essence and turns to only incense...quite strange really. I would like to smell this frag on someone else to see how it suits them.
It's really a gorgeous scent. I enjoy using it for everyday events cause it makes for a very successful daily scent, too. Not so sure about nighttime, but there's no problem in trying. Still, this scent reminds me of more classic days in perfume, and I love how effortless it is. You definitely smell the rose; not so much the amber, at least when I have it on. But I'm pretty close to having the complete collection (got a free body lotion with the perfume so that was a score) and it's just something I love to wear. Very sophisticated, and I get many compliments.
My friend had the body lotion of p.s. i love you at her house and i decided to try it on. Oh my god, the entire day I smelled like a grandma. I asked 5 of friends to smell my arm and they all agreed. IF YOU'RE A TEENAGER, STAY THE HELL AWAY. Please don't buy it, to me it was the most disgusting BBW scent I have tried in a while.
cant stand this smell...disliked!
Wow, this is really a perfume I can't stand the smell of. My daughter bought it for me for Christmas and it's the only one I have that I don't use often. However, BOTH times I have worn it I have had my brother and others ask what it is and say how good it smells. So I will still wear it on occasion. Men really seem to like it a lot.
Last year a bunch of people gave this to me for Christmas. I like it, though it isn't a thriller for me. It's floral and very nice. I must say though that everyone else LOVES it on me. I have gotten more compliments weaing this than anything else. This is the only thing someone has actually stopped me to ask what I was wearing. Then men especially seem to adore it- my husband's favorite.
I liked this a lot upon first sniff this summer. To me, it is different than most of the other B&BW fragrances. Today, I loved it even more. It smells quite nostalgic to my nose and memory. I've realized now that it is almost a note for note copy of a Crabtree and Evelyn fragrance...A more intense Summer Hill perhaps or one of the others with a victorian-inspired name. Come to think of it, this fragrance smells like a modern Victorian. Something a contemporary Goth girl would love to wear. I purchased the 3 travel size bottles for $10.00 and can't wait to layer and wear!
I like this! I have the little 5 dollar body spray that I use to keep in my car and I just spray it around to make my car smell good : )
Its a rather fruity floral more floral than fruity.
I swear this is a remake of the fragrance Morning Mist from the late 90's. It was a collection that came out during the summer, and it came in a frosted bottle. It only lasted a month or two before it was discontinued and never made again.
Ir reminds me of sweet tarts candy smell.I kind of like it but I have ps i love you spring fling and that one is similar but more flowery and stronger more noticable I prefer spring fling.
"Love is in the air" or, rather, "Desire for love is in the air," must have been the recent forecasts of the marketing gurus at the nation's major mass market fragrance retailers, TBS, VS, and last but not least, BBW, whose P.S. I LOVE YOU definitively proves that love is a toothache. Or so it seems.
P.S. I LOVE YOU is a super-fruity fruity floral, with nary a rose to be found by my nose! The oh-so-trendy and requisite patchouli is in abundance, and the jamlike fruitiness coats the flowers into an indistinguishable pinkish-red blob. I thought that I'd see the infamous "red berries" listed among the notes, but the uebersweetness of this frag appears be due to "Riesling essence". Which makes a lot of sense, in fact: Riesling is probably my least favorite wine. Well, not counting Mogen David.
Way too sweet! Can love really be a toothache, after all? This seems to be more a scent of teenage infatuation, strong and sweet while it lasts, but fairly shortlived. Yes, indeed, P.S. I LOVE YOU could be the celebrity Twitter scent of, well, n'importe qui!
I got a lotion sampler of this and wasn't thrilled with the smell. I read reviews from another site that this smells like pantyliners! So I didn't gave this scent another try. But I got curious with its other version P.S. I Love You Spring Fling. I ordered it unsniffed and to my surprise its good! Lovely, fresh and summery crisp.
actually a really nice smell, I was surprised. Nothing like the other B&BW signature scents. Floral yet woodsy.
It smells like cheap, stale red wine. Awful.
Got it at the half yearly sale , great spring summer scent. I believe it is only going to last as long as you layer it or reapply as any lite, fresh floral secent to last. The EDP AND THE BODY CREAM makes it last at least 4hrs before you have to reapply.
Oddly, I got almost no rose from this. I got instead a fruity musk with hairspray overtones. It fadesd down some to a creamier scent, a clear light musk, slightly powdery in a makeup way, with watery floral notes like Freesia. This was better, but I'm not a huge fan of Freesia and the watery floral notes. The body mist is much lighter than the EdP and has almost no sillage. YOu have to press your nose to your wrist to smell it. The EdP is much better by far and longer lasting. Still, not my thing, and the opening notes are too acidic to be pleasant.
I have the travel size mist of P.S. I Love You, and it's surprisingly strong for a body spray. This scent is rosy, it reminded me of Stella when I first sprayed it on. Then, after a moment, a chocolately note starts to come out, and things get interesting! A complex chocolate rose scent, from Bath and Body Works! I can't wait to try this in the special EDP edition.
I really like the smell; unfortunately it dos not last long on me AT ALL. I sprayed a fair amount on me at 7am this morning...by 9am I could barely smell it and by 10am it was gone completely :(
The EDT is a very nice rose that smells classy and wears well. This is a young, slightly sweet rose, but there is enough base to keep it from being too sugary, and it never veers into rose soap territory. A very good scent from BBW that I will definitely purchase.
