A new fragrance by Gianfranco Ferre was announced as a project which does not turn to the past or to fragrant notes that used to be offered by this house, but its concept follows fashion trends. The new strategy of the house includes cooperants who try to combine architectural forms with concept of the new fragrance. Fabien Baron, as creator of the flacon, has shown this fragrance in shape of bowl, with small gaps, which suggest tactile feeling of its tissue. In the beginning of 2010, the edition for women will be joined by a modern masculine fragrance, and a fragrance for younger generations afterwards. Composition of perfume In The Mood for Love incorporates bitter orange, magnolia, white rose, amber and woody accords. Perfumer is Maurice Roucel. The perfume is available as 30, 50 and 100ml edp. In The Mood For Love was launched in 2009.
I just love this fragrance!last quite long..Its quite expensive though and the newer edition "Pure" is not so long lasting.
It's a liquid pearl in a bottle.
Perfect in both scent and design, specially design is art itself.
The scent is so smooth and so lovely and so so so romantic, velvety light warm sweetness with silky flowers and delicious undertone which smells a bit like coconut.
There's no hint of classic perfumes in this as musk or deep rose of resinous smells; all is a modern style of perfumery. Definitely Ferre mastered women's taste!
Least but not last; it's something every chic and sexy girls should try!
longevity 10/10
sillage 10/10
scent 10/10
It's a nice fresh scent, great for spring or summer. It's not too strong, it's long lasting perfume and it smells totally different on every skin! I was surprised when my boy-friend put it on, this perfume got a manly scent, so I guess it's not strictly for women.
additional notes include tamarind, bergamot, orange blossom, lily, jasmine, red rose, cedar, amber, white musk and sandalwood.

orange flower and amber after 20 minutes on my skin
I am very very disapointed!
since on paper all the other notes are nice and lasting.
but not on my skin
It is more economical to use Potter and Moore Orange flower and amber.
But one thing is for sure these two nuances are real esential oils with traces on paper, which is nice touch anyhow.
better luck next time...
i can t tell more about this precious scent, than my previous reviewer tells about this wonderful perfume, he describes it perfectly. love it!
Hi.
IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE has a hint of Class, Elegance and Romance.A "hug me" fragrance with a blend of floral for a Modern lady who likes Beauty and sophistication at the same time. Romantic,Modern,Pleasant,Floral, Exciting,Clean,Enchanting and Soft.
A fruity opening of Bitter Orange, brilliant floral heart of Rose and Magnolia and Warm,Soft base of amber make First Love a perfect evening choice for when you are inclined for Romantic mood because i think This scent is breath taking.
IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE is the type of subtle fragrance that would be appreciated in the Spring and then Autumn evenings when everyone else is wearing heavy oriental perfume.It is not a overbearing scent,it is so pleasant and Romantic at the same time and totally great for Day&Night use.
Sillage?Decent.
Longevity?Pretty Good on my skin.

purchased it 2 weeks ago in Sharm El Sheikh duty free airport. Fell in love with this fragrance from the first sniff. Loving it!
I find this perfume unique...when you first smell it it's like you're entering a flower garden..it's feminine and very beautiful, it has nothing to do with Pure Poison from Dior...it is definetely my fav and I think it will take a long time till another like this will be created.
i have this...my dad bought me yesterday....i am in love with this parfum
Is this fragrance available in stores yet? I have a woman friend who really would like this In The Mood For Love. I can be reached at sam1454@yahoo.com
Thanks for your help.
the bottle is very special,the smell is light and sweet ,as wind of summer night.
it smelled lovely somewhat just my type,however with time it became soury/bittery on my skin so finally I did not go for it
On me this is the floral scent , but with the original breath of air. Similar to Hermes Eau des Mervelles but more delicate. I instruct to test. Is very good quality.
Ok I love the name but bottle seemed to be like a sun protection lotion commercial or too much 80's. Anyway in the end i liked the idea. After trying on me i couldn't find any relation with being "in the mood for love". I was expecting something more thrilling, romantic by the name... Very fresh and then becoming a bit sour on me. Reminded me very much DKNY Energizing one but I think DK is much more sophisticated. I checked the ingredients just now and they are quiet similar though DK is much more richer and longer lasting. So for me it is like a summer eau de cologne, not really a perfume. And i agree nothing extraordinary at all.
in the mood for love sort of awakes my emotions. i dont know how can this be expressed otherwise but it inspires me in a way and sometimes the scent reminds me of the smell of the old lipsticks of dior or estee maybe?! i´m not sure.
but this scent makes me kind of menace and imaginative.. interesting huh? :)
this perfume has gifted to me frm my frnd an 1st i didn't like it whn i spray but thn later u urself feel so gud wth the frangrance of ferre, and bottle z sexy
in spite of i don't like floral odors specially Rose, this one has a very unique scent witch i like maybe, because of the bitter orange.
it is very soft and doesn't change from the beginning till the end.
a good and non-popular fragrance for the one who likes the light smells.
i also like the design of the bottle:as unique as the scent.
SOunds like a simple with no fuss fragrance reading from the ingredients, but I just love the name. In the mood for love reminds me of Wong Kar Wai's classic movie. And I used to adores Grianfranco Ferre when he still works with Dior and launched Dune. So, I bet it worth a try to test.
A beautiful, ideal fragrance. For me, this is a soft and tender version of Cacharel's Eden. And I like it very much, because I always wanted to wear Eden, but it's too heavy. Now I can wear this mild and soft scent.
I have enough reasons to crave to smell this perfume.
first,it's all about the name.I love the movie 'in the mood for love' made in 1999 and in which love doesn't end foolishly with a sexual intercourse.
Second,I love most of Ferre perfumes.my favorite is GF ferre,but I also like rose editions...
Third,Maurice Roucel is my favorite perfume maker.the designer of Insolence,Gf ferre,Guess and so so many other ones.
so,hopefully it's available in the stores now and I have a splash of it on my hand.
I'm not sure it's what I expected to smell according to the name 'in the mood for love'.but it's beautiful.I agree with zvoncica and other previous reviewers.it doesn't change during the time.to me it's all about rose and magnolia.I think it's more likely a floral perfume rather than a floral fruity.it's warm and easy to wear.I don't get any complicated,sophisticated scent.but like the color of bottle says,it's white,pure and soft.I see some kind of innocence in this perfume that makes me believe the name matches the personality of it.
I can't deny that I smelt this perfume in a time I was ready to get in the mood for love,but since I decided not to fall,I don't think I'll buy it.I think at the time I need something more sophisticated.but still I love to smell it from time to time and listen to the soundtrack of 'in the mood for love'.
I liked In The Mood For Love from the first sniff.
This scent practically doesn’t change from the beginning till the end. All the way is rose and magnolia covered with slight orange bitterness. It is gentle, fresh and uplifting. Has no sweetness and is really pure and light. Perfect choice for everyday wear and throughout entire year. It is so easy to wear and enjoy this perfume.
From the moment I sprayed it on my hand I thought how great and familiar this scent is! And we all know that people can easily fall in love with familiar stuff. This is Pure poison copy, that’s were the love and familiarity came from!
Very soft and gentle, a truly white scent.
Soft and fluffy, and ah so lovely!
I find it unique, romantic and not girly at all.
I get magnolia and dry woods and very light amber.
For my nose, it doesn't change in time.
It's not a kind of fresh fragrance, and I think it could be worn even in colder months.
After first sniff I thought I'll get this for 99%. But I won't. On my skin it becomes a bit bitter. I don't know where does it come from (maybe the bitterness of orange shows up after an hour...), but it disturbs me. Too bad.
it is the best floral fruity fragrance!! it has nothing to do with 'pure poison'. it's quite long lasting!!!
the bottle: unique, piece of art!
I really like this fragrance.
You know why?
Because I splash the juice on my wrist, instantaneous smelled different than any other lately launches. This fragrance has the aroma of past years when in fragrance industry was a little bit decency.
All the new launches these days smell the same (a fruity shampoo feeling), but this one gave me the feeling of something beyond. I felt a gourmand but also flowery touch. Magnolia is very evident in this mixture. Also I smell the bitter orange - but the great part is the fact that this aroma brings a natural touch (you almost taste it).
Because of the synthetic aromas we all changed the idea of how a fruit smells. We all believe that citrus smells like sweet detergent.
I am glad to find a good fragrance like this.
I like this fragrance - i found it unusual. I actually found it similar not to Pure Poison but to Boudoir by Vivienne Westwood. Only I prefer Boudoir better - it's uniqe and lasts longer.
Nothing special, but nice "office" fragrance for summer. Ialso think it has nothing to do with Pure Poison!
I think there is nothing to do with pure poison here, but that is just my humble opinion.
This fragrance is a disappointment for me. I love and respect GF's fragrances so that i expected something as good as the previous creations. But i find this one boooring ... :( flat girly fruity-floral, nice, ok, but nothing new or extraordinary.
