The scent has a heart of florals, including jasmine sambac, orange flower and rose. Creamy white woods and sensual musk intertwine with amber, sandalwood and cedarwood at its base. The complexity of live in love evokes that of a classic scent, made with ingredients of the highest quality."

I was pretty disappointed as I thought last year's Esprit d'Oscar was stellar. This one, to me, was not. Bummer, because I thought the marketing was so clutch.

Thank you, Susan! I also found Esprit d'Oscar to be excellent, so I hoped that this might be interesting as well.

According to your description it is a must try.

I tried this once on the way out of the mall. Wasn't expecting much. I loved it--all afternoon! Must try it again. It had a sense of Happiness. Very Spring.

Well, I'd be willing to give it another shot with Live in Love. Maybe my expectations were unrealistic.

After the wonderful Esprit d'Oscar - which turned around my views on the whole house - I had high hopes of this one and managed to score a sample in Harrods the other day. The notes sounded most appealing - I am a sucker for anything with ginger in the name! - and whilst it was fresh and spring-like, it was disappointingly indistinct and the longevity was poor. Will try it again, but the first two tests left me wanting, sadly.
