Lovely (for women)
Designer: Sarah Jessica Parker Olfactive Group: Floral Woody MuskLovely is a soft, powdery, discrete and very intimate fragrance, announced as 'silky white amber'. It possesses an elegance characteristic of classic fragrances. And yet the fragrance is quite modern and very charming.
It opens with soft citruses (nectarine and bergamot) and woody (rosewood) notes, with a touch of lavender, which is very discrete and not at all sharp. The fragrance develops further with notes of apple martini, white daffodil and orchid. The base unites white amber, cedar, woody notes and white musk.
According to Sarah's words, the perfume is appropriate for all generations: 'from 17 to 107'. The fragrance was created by Laurent Le Guernec and Clement Gavarry in 2005 with Sarah herself being the creative director, actively participating in the process from its start to finish.

I smell a little bit of sour apple in it. Perfect for everyday use.





It’s reminiscent of The Body Shop’s White Musk but slightly more feminine and complex. I won’t lie; this is not the most original scent and probably my least favorite out of my collection, but it does have its moments. I agree that it is very similar to Narcisso Rodriguez for Her, and I think that every woman should own one of these two fragrances for use on those days when you just want to smell pretty, but not “perfume-y” (i.e. an office meeting). Since Narcisso Rodriguez was designed by my favorite perfumer, Christine Nagel, I feel bad for having unknowingly purchased something that was so obviously copied instead of the original, but ah, such is life; next time I’ll know better. I will add that the staying power is not fantastic – expect about three hours of wear, at most.
I definitely smell the lavender and the apple martini accord but there’s not much else here (to my nose) except white musk. I can’t imagine any woman wouldn’t find this scent to be, at the very least, pleasant. Groundbreaking it is not, but lovely it is. If you’re interested in reading about how SJP was involved in the perfume-creation-process for Lovely, check out Chandler Burr’s, “The Perfect Scent.” I highly recommend it.

It is flirty, understated, innocent yet sexy. I often wear this when I'm in the mood to wear flirty dresses, soft cardigans and jeans, or vintage romantic tops with a kitten heel. It's one of the few fragrances I have that I feel I have to dress according to it.
My only complaint about the fragrance is it's lack of staying power. Luckily I was given a fragrance set which included a lotion and a rollerball. I definitely have to wear the lotion and carry the rollerball in my purse if I want the scent to stay with me all day.
I disagree that it's boring. It's uniqueness lies in that one discordant note. I love this one so much!

While NR is rather heavy and for darker women, "Lovely" is lithe and light.





I can separate the lavender from the floral notes & there’s a sharp, sour note that I guess to be the martini accord. The base is a clean woody, musk.
The bottle is nice & classic, plus the staying power is very good. Also, the price is very reasonable.
But, good points aside, there is nothing unique about LOVELY that would make me want to re-buy it.
It would be a good choice for a gift, as it’s not disagreeable & it is good for all ages.


I love SJP's Covet Pure Bloom, and I like Covet.










On first spritz, Lovely has a synthetic , plasticy note that puts me off, while the initial NR waft has a sweeter, denser, fruitier smell.
On the dry down, NR is lovlier than Lovely. The problem is that synthetic, hardware-store note (which I also detect in Covet by SJP). It lingers in Lovely, and even gets stronger. I was unable to identify this smell until I read the review from indigo.smile: yes, that's it--New Barbie Doll!
It is odd, because I love all of the the notes in Lovely, but have to scrub it off. It certainly lasts a long time, longer than Narciso Rodriguez, unfortunately.
I don’t get the amount of musk in either one that I would have expected.
I do see why the two scents are often compared, but Narciso Rodriguez is much smoother and less synthetic.

In general - yes, Lovely scent, but... it is a twin of Gres Cabaret, just lighter. Did it worth all the efforts?

This fragrance certainly grows on me. It gets more exciting when the nutmeg emerges an hour later.
Does anyone notice this on them or is it just me perceiving it badly?
My Friend had it and it smelled lovely on her.If you like fresh but yet flower then this scent is for you.







The fragrance changes dramatically in time for me - it leaves my skin smelling musky and creamy! This is calming and incredibly comforting!
