Glow by Jennifer Lopez

It’s not bad; it’s soft but doesn’t speak to me, and at first, it put me off. Overall, it’s wearable and you could gift it to anyone. It just doesn’t fit the Glow concept of brilliance; it should be more exuberant and isn’t. Nothing sexy, it’s an innocent fragrance. What a pity about the beautiful bottle that highlights JLo’s curves. It does have that freshly showered scent, though that wasn’t my first thought. The good thing is it lasts five hours without issue for the price. It could work for layering since it’s neutral; putting something stronger over it, like citrus, would be nice, because the grapefruit note isn’t noticeable as it should be at first.

I was gifted a sample, and besides bringing back the 2000s, it has that strange touch: it doesn’t smell bad, it’s a pleasant blend, but be careful not to overdo the sprays as it can be invasive. Ideal for personal spaces, and at 40, don’t overdo the application. 😉

I followed the notes and reviews… I love neroli and orange blossom, but on my skin I only detect jasmine, amber, and a heavy musk. It has a soapy touch and something familiar I couldn’t identify… until I remembered: it smells like hairdresser curling tongs, those old wooden ones that are used. That’s why some find it reminiscent of disinfectant or insecticide; strictly speaking, it smells like hair bleach. It’s not a scent that stands out or evolves; I’ll leave it as a bathroom air freshener. A Meh! For me. I won’t buy it again.

It suits me perfectly. It smells clean, ideal for everyday wear, and super wearable.

It smells like creamy Dove soap. What a pleasant surprise to try fragrances without prejudice. Ignoring the packaging that doesn’t match the contents, let me tell you what it smells like: a moment of ‘you’ve just come back from the beach, used Dove, and put on Nivea or an aftersun… ET VOILÀ!’. Yes, it smells a bit synthetic, like drugstore stuff you don’t know if they’ll keep around soon. But it sticks and has its point, listen! Within this style sits Nivea Eau de Toilette; soapy, musky fragrances for informal use and personal pleasure. Luxury? No. Guilty pleasure? Maybe. Do I wear it and like it? Also yes.

I bought it blindly because of the reputation that it smells clean. It reminds me of soap bars, Dove-style creams, or floral versions of Nivea. If you like those scents, you’ll love Glow. It’s very cheap at the moment. The longevity on clothes exceeds 24 hours. It’s not formal; it’s for enjoyment and daily wear. It’s very versatile, suitable all year round except in extreme heat. For me, it extends the feeling of post-shower wellbeing, very pleasant, although the opening is intense and can be startling. I won’t repurchase when it runs out, although I’ve rarely repeated perfumes in my life.

They sold this to me as fresh and clean, but it smells like aerosol insecticide. I didn’t like it at all; I used it as a bathroom air freshener.

Here I want to distinguish ‘talcated’ from ‘soapy’, which are often confused on websites. This fragrance is more soapy than talcated. It’s fresh, clean, and slightly astringent due to the citrus. You can detect the orange blossom and a bit of rose. It reminds me of low-cost Venus soaps. It’s not unpleasant, but not for formal occasions; I use it after a shower to relax and sleep. Today I reviewed perfumes I bought in a body lotion and gel set, because their trail is weak and longevity low, but it’s worth it for the price.

Forget my comment from two years ago… I love it today! With that kind of love where I’d buy it a thousand times. My nose has evolved… Glow is a creamy, clean foam bath that relaxes you and restores the freshness that summer steals.

Smells like bath soap 🙁

Captures that lily note that reminds me of the original Anais Anais. Smells like rose soap and gives a sense of cleanliness, mind you, it’s not fresh. It’s very floral, perhaps for those seeking something citrusy like the DG Light Blue.

To me, it’s a super bitter grapefruit with white flowers. A clean smell but so astringent that it makes me feel uncomfortable. Extremely synthetic.

Searching for soapy perfumes online I found Glow and bought it blindly. Upon trying it, a talcum powder smell like old lady nail polish came to mind that put me off. On the other hand, it smelled like sunscreen, which I do love. As I use it every day I notice more of that clean scent (white flowers and sandalwood) and practically it no longer smells like nail polish. Still, no matter how much cologne I spray, I never smell enough and I don’t see projection. I like it to prolong the shower moment, wear it around the house, or sleep with it, it’s fine for smelling it on yourself or spraying clean sheets. For the price I didn’t expect much, I’ll enjoy it but I don’t think I’ll buy it again, though we’ll see in summer. PS: I don’t understand those who say it smells like insecticide, not at all!

My passion for perfumes has gone through several stages; now I’m obsessed with soapy scents. I wanted to try it a year ago and bought it blindly online at a good price. Indeed, it’s a little bar of soap, like a body cream. It’s very linear: the opening is strong but lasts 15 minutes with that sensation, then it softens. I can’t distinguish the notes well, only the rose. It’s pleasant but feels somewhat vintage. On my skin it has great longevity; in the end, a strange little scent remains but it doesn’t bother me. This perfume is a magnet for compliments.
