Animale Love by Animale

Reminds me a lot of Paris Hilton’s Can Can. I know it’s cloying, but I absolutely love it.

Smells just like Pink Sugar, but without that burnt caramel note.

It’s sweet and caramel-like, yet very synthetic; on my skin it smells like rubber. I only wore it once and now it sits in my collection.

A sweet floral with a fruity touch. The opening is strong but shifts quickly to a pleasant sweetness; I detect gardenia, rose, lily of the valley, then mandarin and tonka bean, finishing with musk and sandalwood. It smells synthetic, not like cotton candy or caramel. Its accessible price offers good value. I’m not sure if I’ll buy it again. The sillage is moderate and longevity acceptable, between 8 and 10 hours. I recommend it for any weather and time of day. I bought it blind and am happy with its development. Definitely recommend if you like sweet, floral, and fruity scents.

I bought it looking for a dupe for Aquolina’s Pink Sugar because I wasn’t convinced by its launch; it was a blind buy that completely displaced the original, which I plan to sell or gift. The only downside is that I only got the 30ml. It smells like Cotton Candy from the very first moment, and on my skin I don’t notice the flowers it claims to have. The longevity is very good and the trail is delicious. The best part is that it is super cheap in Mexico, around 400 pesos or 17 dollars. Hopefully, they find it in a set. Delicious! 😍

On my skin it smells sweet, like cotton candy, bubblegum, bonbons, talcum powder, and roses. It’s a fresh, sweet, and soft scent, but with excellent fixation. I highly recommend it; it’s not expensive, ranging between $20 and $35. It’s a lovely 100ml Eau de Parfum.

Looking for Pink Sugar isn’t easy in my country, so I found this as a dupe. It was a blind buy and a big mistake; I didn’t like it at all, perhaps it’s my pH, but on my skin it smells like rubber, very synthetic. I can’t explain it; I don’t sense any cotton, caramel, or raspberries as described here.

I agree with those who say it’s similar to Pink Sugar. On my skin, Animale Love is more musky, balsamic, and less acidic at first. It evolves into cotton candy and caramel, finishing with a very soft and delicious note of amber and raspberry. The incredible thing is that neither cotton candy nor caramel are in its composition. I recommend it as a gourmand wildcard. If you love super-sweet perfumes, you’ll adore it. However, if Pink Sugar doesn’t suit your pH, this probably won’t either. My mother loved Pink Sugar, but on her skin it turned into an unbearable smell of burnt rubber and rotten lemon that wouldn’t wash off. This happened to her with this one too, but less badly. I will definitely buy it again.

I had ruled out Pink Sugar after reading reviews describing it as burnt caramel, even though I knew Animale Love seemed similar. I dared to buy it blindly because it was cheap, and it was a huge mistake. On my skin, Animale Love smells like caramel, but rancid and very heavy. Maybe my product is damaged or just doesn’t suit my pH; there are a thousand reasons, but on my skin, it is not pleasant. I’m not speaking ill of the brand, please understand me: it is nothing pleasurable, feminine, or tender; it smells like spoiled sweetness. It is the only experience I’ve had with Animale Love, what a pity and disappointment. Every perfume I buy blindly I treat with my best goodwill, trying to give them a chance even if they aren’t my profile, but here I failed monumentally. I cry and suffer.

It is a sugary-dominant aroma where a touch of peonies is noticeable, reminding me of Perfume Pivoine, not exactly, but with that same presence, plus a slight touch of mandarin. It is a tender aroma that evokes the femininity and sweetness of a woman without a defined age: from a child to an elderly person, ideal for the office or informal events. Additionally, it has that same longevity and accessible price as its Animale predecessors. It is for morning and evening use.

It is identical to Aquolina’s Pink Sugar: pure cotton candy. I don’t know how the price compares, but it seems easier to get in certain places. I already had the original, and it is super sweet and long-lasting; a little goes a long way to make the scent last all day. Ideal for gourmand lovers. In the end, I bought it 🙂 It is a mix of cotton candy, baby powder, and raspberries. Exquisite and very good value.
