Love and Luck for Men (2008)
by Ed Hardy [Christian Audigier]

nice fresh scent but it simply does not last
its a fresh oriental fougere with a nice edge and a great drydown and its very popular among a lot of people and it really is a really versatile scent

I really like the fresh scent on this one. Projection is decent the first hour or so, but not as great afterwords. It would be great if longetivity was better.

I heard so many positive reviews about this scent. On trying it I was initially impressed with the smell coming out, I have always been a fan of Orange and Cedarwood in my scents and this one had these. The big downside is the longevity, I can barely get 1 hour out of this scent and that has to be a big issue as many other people have said the same. I want to spray something on me and be able to smell it a few hours later, this scent slips up in this department and for that I could not recommend it.

I find this one very similar to Sean John unforgivable but I think I like this one a slight touch more. Its a bit sweeter than the other and lasts longer too. Overall a very nice everyday fragrance. Very safe and inoffensive.

I really enjoyed this scent over the summer. With the good price, you can not go wrong with this one. Good daily wear scent for those looking for a fragrance to wear during the day, when the heavy hitters are too much to use.

I got a $12 mini of this at the store a couple months ago. The first time I sprayed this on I became an instant fan. The citrus top notes in most fragrances have this "biting" quality, but the citrus in Love & Luck comes off very smooth. The only downside is that it doesn't last very long.

Fortunately, the heart of the fragrance is just as strong as the opening and is the driving force of the fragrance throughout the duration of the wear. Like other reviewers have noted elsewhere the violet is undeniable here. My nose isn't developed enough to differentiate all the notes, but I know the violet when I smell it. The transition from the citrus, albeit short, was also smooth. The longevity was surprisingly good on my skin as well, much better than I thought it would be. I also noticed, a good 4 to 5 hours into the wear, that it was still projecting quite nicely. The only thing I didn't get much of was the base. Maybe it was just the mini that I had, but there didn't seem to be much of a base after the violet started to die off. Or maybe I just didn't much notice it.

Ed Hardy may not be all that fashionable, and I don't know how any of the other Ed Hardy frags come off, but this stuff is brilliant in my humble opinion. One of the best designer fragrance I've ever smelled. And for the price this fragrance is ABSOLUTELY worth it. Double thumbs up!
