Love Coach for women

Too powdery:(

Really the best of the Coach brand, since most of their offerings are generic white flower variations that leave me somewhat uninspired.

The Mister loves musky/patchouli/woodsy scents that are still feminine on me and this fills the bill nicely. Perhaps not a to-die-for scent, but a solid go-to for me. The slight caramel adds the tiniest hint of sweetness, but doesn't push this even close to a gourmand-type scent (most of which I abhor).

Interesting to see the comparisons to Lady Gaga Fame and Flowerbomb, both of which I detest, lol. That's the beauty of the olfactory world however. Scent is very very personal, and no two noses perceive alike.

This is actually the only Coach perfume that I like. Must be the patchouli/woody vibe. Typically Coach perfumes are too floral/fruity for me but this is just awesome stuff. It has a sort of Flowerbomb type smell to it. Not an exact replica but similar in a way. I think it is a perfect Spring/Summer perfume.

I wanted to like it so bad, as I generally love the Coach brand as well as previous scents but this one triggered an almost instant headache and the reason is the overwhelming Violet. I mean, this is a Violet bomb, at least to me, and it, unfortunately, goes straight into my headache central. :(

Forgive me if this is a perfume you really like but this is just too much of not enough. It smells to me like a brand new leather handbag with a pine air freshener thrown in. I honestly do not believe that this would work on anyone. Again sorry but this here is a hot mess.

This perfume doesn't deserve all the hate, it's really good -- especially compared to the fruity floral BLEH that Coach usually puts out!

I sprayed a sample on my arm and it smelled like a good but not breathtaking white floral. I "liked" this and forgot about it. Then, the AWESOME SAUCE {POW} that is that delicious caramel note wafted to my nose and I -melted- when I smelled my arm.

Coach Love totally captures that salty-smoky-sweet caramel without being too sweet (Looking at you JS's Fancy) or that ugly plastic note (Looking at you, Prada's Candy).

Lasting power is above average but not amazing (8ish hours), and Sillage is noticeable but not obnoxious. I would call this my signature scent because it's so good for everyday wear, but I am done pretending my obsession over perfumes will ever stop. I'm kinda a floozy when it comes to perfume!

This is a classy warm fragrance for work :) it smells like Prada Candy!

Clearly opinions vary on this one-I got a sample and after wearing this for a day, I can safely say that I can't really call this "gormand" fragrance.

Its mostly floral to my nose and I get distinctly green floral notes, especially in the beginning and even a bit of gardenia(but only a bit).
I can't smell patchouili even a tinsiest bit, nor or sandalwood. There is a little bit caramel, vanilla and musk, sort of mild sweetness on the drydown. And that's it.
Its also very faint-I sprayed several generous sprays on myself and I could barely smell it. I had the same experience with other Coaches scents as well
Smells nice enough but not very unique. Reminded me of VS fragrances

This soft, youthful, powdery green floral has average longevity and very good sillage. Apply sparingly.

Coach Love is a pastel rendition of a greenhouse created by a young girl who has only been given three colors to use: spring green, ivory, and light pink.

Coach Love is also like seeing a naturally platinum blonde woman, while trying to pay attention to an intense painting at the Museum of Modern Art. The painting is what you came to see, but it's not going anywhere, and once you're staring at the blonde instead, you definitely aren't thinking it might be love at first sight, but there is something so simple and superficially effortless about her beauty, next to the painting.

In all of her formulaic, indisputable allure, Coach Love succeeds as a refreshingly sweet and up-beat reprieve(mmmaldehydes...), from the other blood sweat and tears beauty: the one you came for, the one you return to after the blonde departs, and the one you will ultimately carry home in your heart.

I love this perfume. I am a Daisy (Marc Jacobs) woman for day and Dior Addict for evening and special occasions, but I fell for Coach Love. I dislike all the other Coach fragrances but this is yummy. I like smelling myself. My husband loves it too. I usually hate florals and have allergic reactions but this works for me and the warm sweeter dry down is mellow and a little sexy without the "I want to rip your clothes off" effect that Dior's Addict has for my husband, so its great for everyday. It brightens my mood and is a bit flirty.
The down side, for the price, I think they could have done better with the bottle design. A little too plain. Didn't like the bow. At age 42, I don't want "cute" I want hot and sexy and since the average teen and 20 something isn't paying 72.00 and 105.00 (Dior) for perfumes, Coach could have put some more thought into the design. It won't keep me from buying it though but the bottle doesn't say, leave me on your countertop.

I've just sniffed and gone to heaven. This is truly lovely. Full of florals and woods, it's soft, spicy, powdery, with a cool green undertone and the tiniest touch of patchouli. Quite linear, but beautiful. Love at first sniff for me.

At first I really didn't like this. I also couldn't discern what exactly I was smelling. Now as it dries down, it is clearly a soft, crisp, gentle floral. I smell a rosy lilac violet essense. I do also get a bit of softness from the musk note and the faintest soapy salty caramel (like the caramel in Prada Candy). It is floral green but soft and musky. I do agree that the scent still feels a bit jumbled and unoriginal.

The advertising slogan used to promote this is, "a new fragrance" but there is nothing new about it. "Coach Love" smells like almost every other new perfume launched in the last ten years: sort of white, vaugely peony/lily, a big dash of Sweet Tarts candy. If you like that kind of scent "Love" is yours. Otherwise, skip it. Bottle is pretty and the taupe color of the perfume is really unusual and sophisticated.

Smells just like Britney Spears "Curious"....but more try hard....very plain IMO.

Another sweet letdown, although the woodiness at the end gives it some personality. I suppose it would be an okay standby "light" fragrance for warmer months.

I really like the smell of this perfume... however my husband not so much. I think it would make a wonderful office perfume as it's light and nonoffensive. I'm not really into the candy/ gourmand notes in most perfumes, but I must say that the floral and carmel smell come through perfectly in this one!

I sampled this and it's so not for me and I'm very disappointed with this one. I mostly got a bland floral-woodsy mess and I couldn't decipher what I was smelling. I thought the lasting power was poor and to me, sillage was nil. I like most of Coach's frags, even though I don't own any, but this one is a definite no-go for me. There's nothing to "Love" about this one. Sorry!

This is one of coaches more mature fragrances. On me it was very woody with oriental florals. I never smelled the Carmel, was more like a light vanilla on me. The lasting power is pretty good, lasted about 6 hours on me

Love to me is a straight oriental, lots of patchouli, I can't really detect another notes, so will wait and see. My skin does amplify patchouli, so on me this might just stay pretty linear. I hope not, it is getting more dewy now, definitely a departure from the floral scents that Coach usually creates. I would think that one is more for lovers of oriental scents. So far.
Flowerbomb is sweeter and not as heady in my views.

Update: just not working for me.

This is a beautiful and sensual fragrance. I love the top note of flower petals! I can also smell amber in the dry down. Maybe it's just mixing with my skin's chemistry, but I love it!

Just got it from macy's !! sooo excited to use it :D

Don't like the bottle in person, kinda 'meh'

Very linear and soft

It just arrived at work today and when I smelt it I loved it! But it's so different from the others that I can see some Coach fans not enjoying it. I don't really like the other ones. I can't judge too much because I only sprayed a blotter card BUT I really want a bottle just not at full price. It reminds me a wee bit of Fame by Lady Gaga and it's not worth $72 for a larger bottle. eBay here I come!
Even so, I would recommend it.

DID NOT LIKE AT ALL! But everyone's taste is totally different... others may love it. My husband smelled it on me and absolutely hated it!

I dislike this perfume, because of the patchouli. I like the other notes. If you don't like patchouli than this is not the perfume for you. In my opinion the patchouli is strong. If anyone wants this I'm willing to swap, or sell this to you.

Before few days ago i received one mail for perfume. I got news for new brand perfume. After it i purchase it for my wife. After using it. my wife very pround on me. So that i can say you should also try.

I received this in the mail today and I must say that it is quite different than I had imagined. I do like it, but I don't love it. The packaging is cute, but I much prefer the Coach Poppy and the Poppy Blossom over this one. The initial notes are rather sharp, but the midnotes so far seem to be a bit more powdery. I can see the resemblance to Flowerbomb, but I like Flowerbomb better.

sounds interesting. Their other scents are all very fruity or floral so this sounds like a nice change

I tested this at the mall over the weekend and to me it has some of the same notes as Madonnas naked, its sweet but not overly sweet....its a good change from all the fruity scents they put out with the poppy line. I think this one will have several positive reviews.

I just won the bid for this on eBay so I will review when it comes in the mail.Looking forward to it!
