Cacharel Lou Lou Eau de Parfum For Women, 30ml

Lou Lou by Cacharel Eau de Parfum For Women, 30ml

Cacharel’s Lou Lou was one of the top selling perfumes of the 1980’s, one of those bold, influential, unique and eternal fragrances. Lou Lou is a controversial perfume that people either like, or they do not like, the one that incites different feelings and indifference for sure is not one of them. Lou Lou is just like powerful dark red flowers that attract you to the complexity of dangerous and dark forest. Yet, it is not possible to repel. It is tempting and once you are engrossed by its warm scent, you simply have to let go and track it, you have to pick the forbidden fruit.

Cacharel Lou Lou is built around the attractive and sensual scent of tiare flower, the tahitian symbol of a warm and generous offer. The top notes are composed of violet, plum black currant, marigold and anais, the heart notes are made up of sweet tiare flower is highlighted with the notes of tuberose, ylang-ylang and orange blossom, all that is followed by a powdery trace of orris and tonka bean and sensual mix of vanilla and balsam. This sensory, wild and secretive perfume is captured in an opaque blue and red flacon of a simple octagonal straight-lines shape that narrows towards the top.

Fragrances for you

Women's fragrances are mainly made from floral, oriental, semi-borient or chypre fragrances.

Floral fragrances are among the most popular fragrance families. The feminine, elegant and natural associations emphasise the feminine side. Oriental fragrances smell sweet, heavy and intense. The oils used are reminiscent of a world of 1001 nights with long perceptibility. A blend of floral and oriental fragrances are semi-borial perfumes. This fragrance combines the warmth and mysterious with a harmony of floral and fruity nuances. The Chypre fragrance family is characterised by a fine fragrance that particularly confident women appreciate. Chypre fragrances offer a strong contrast between warm woody nuances and fresh citrus notes.

Choose for yourself and find the right scent for your personality.

Perfumery – Did you know?
Eau de Toilette or Eau de Parfum? While Eau de Toilette contains 5-9% of perfume oil, Eau de Parfum usually contains 8-14%. Eau de Parfums therefore last longer and smell more intense. Natural or synthetic fragrances? Perfumes with natural ingredients often smell different in batches based on the source of the ingredients, while synthetic ingredients usually have consistency in their smell and lasts longer.

The fragrance pyramid

Top notes

The top note is perceived as the first and is the smell immediately after spraying. Often fresh, minty, aquatic and airy fragrances are used. The top note of the fragrance lasts for about 15 minutes.

Middle notes

The middle note forms the middle level of the pyramid and follows after the top note disappear. The aromas of the heart note gradually unfold and determine the character of the respective fragrance. Floral, fruity and herbaceous aromas are often used.

Base notes:

The base notes form the foundation of the fragrance, rounds off the smell experience and gives the fragrance a certain degree of depth. The base notes are mainly woody, resinous and gourmandous, i.e. sensual, deep nuances. The smell of the base note may last for several hours depending on the application.

Tips/advice:
When you apply perfumes apply them to pulse points such as the folds in the crook of your elbow and back of knees, wrist, neck and cleavage. Spraying a little into the air is also good if you walk straight into the perfume. This helps to diffuse it over your body. Do not simply apply to the neck as the scent will rise.
