Si Lolita represents a dramatic departure from Lolita Lempicka’s usual sweet and girly style of perfumery. And by “dramatic”, I mean “OH GOD WHY.” First impression: Cheap men’s cologne. Second impression: Spicy cheap men’s cologne. There is nary a hint of sweet pea, or any other floral. I found this unpleasant to smell. I am forced to conclude that most of the funding for Si Lolita went into the adorable bottle, and as a result there was very little money left over for the actual fragrance. This will stick out like a sore thumb among the rest of the Lolita line.
So glad I didn’t order this unsniffed!!! Sounds like I should definitely try before buying. Love Christine Nagel, but your description sounds like something I definitely would not like. Thanks for the review, Ari!
Thank you for reading, Karin! I was majorly disappointed. I’m holding out hope that perhaps it was a bad tester….
Haha! That is so funny. I actually like this fragrance although I will admit that I was surprised by it at first.
Your blog gave me such hope, Melissa! 😦 I really wanted to love it, because I am ALL OVER that bottle.
Aww, I think I like so many different types of smells that I liked it for the weird spicy scent. It dries down nice on me too. My mom liked it also, but then her partner took a big whiff and started coughing and gagging!
