I like it. It's very fresh and delicious. Has something very alluring going on for it in the middle. That being said it doesn't have a spark to it. It smells generic to my nose. I'm also not a huge fan of citrus. It's not bad but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone, nor do I think I could get away with wearing something like this.

If you're into fresh citrusy smells give it a shot.

If you wanna wear smw/hamptons for half the price pick this up. It's identical to my nose. Maybe a tiny bit harsher than the other two at open but the tire/current/calone accord is a bit rough anyway. P.s. I like smw/hamptons. I wore a sample of this today and all my friends who know i wear smw in the summer remarked on me breaking it out for the summer. Longevity is as good as smw bit better than hamptons. It has all the same benefits/drawbacks remains really fresh and currenty with a bit of a sharp edge. Much like smw though it can get a bit tiring with so little movement or development.

Gave it a neutral. It gets a - for the blatant plagiarism but a plus for being a cheap option for the same smell.

I just bought this and really like it. I smelled it months ago and was turned off by it for some reason. Those that say it smells like Silver Mountain Water are crazy. I've worn that stuff and for as expensive and popular as it is, I think it's really bad. Love and Luck DOES smell a lot like Unforgivable after the wear down. However, Unforgivable is probably the biggest rip-off ever. You can spray the entire bottle on and within an hour, it's GONE! Sean John should be embarrassed. Also, Love and Luck is much better than the original Ed Hardy, in my opinion!

BORING... This is like some cheap drugstore knock off. Don't get me wrong, it's not a bad scent. But let's just say you'd be better off getting a drugstore knock off and saving some $$ for a better scent.

Really baffled by the comparisons to SMW, I just dont smell it. Wish I did, because I love SMW. Fruity, airy, has many different similarities to other offerings, but not enough alike to compare to each other. Nice Violet/Wood combo.

it is a good fragrance over all its nuetral because of its lack of originality and its nothing great just a normal fragrance.
it has a citrusy start which is quite pleasant and then just fades to a dark horrible soap and dirt which luckily nobody can smell off you.
also it has bad longetivity
so if you want a scent that is good at the beggining then slowly fades to horrible and doesnt last long then you should buy it

I'll start out by saying that I am not one of those Ed Hardy fanboys and I actually pretty much dislike the whole collection . . . Except this EDT.

It starts off with a kinda harsh citrus but fades very quickly into a smooth, almost creamy mix of citrus and woods. I think it might be the absinthe in the mid notes that really suit me well. In any case, Its a nice change from the usual Acqua di Gio you smell on a lot of guys in my age group/entourage. Recommended to wear in a club or bar, cuts through other scents and gets you noticed.

Nice, but not original. If you're not acquainted with the many other frags that smell like it, you'll find it exciting, and you'll be right to buy it.

on paper, it's a fruiter version of Silver Mountain Water/Unforgivable. On my skin, it's a fruiter AND soapier version. certainly not bad, but I've smelled this scent so many times before that I'm beginning to wonder if Creed's giving it away for free. =P

Don't think you can get any closer to Silver Mountain Water without actually going out and buying Silver Mountain Water. Could not believe how close this is to it. SMW is a little stronger and has better longevity though. Don't know whether to praise Gillotin for his recognition of an awesome scent in SMW or think it is cheesy for the apparent rip-off. Just my 2 cents.

Very nice fragrance I expected Average at best but to my surprise I was wrong, nice scent longevity is good a thumbs up.

I just tried this on and have mixed feelings about it. I can't comment on the notes as I don't know exactly what they are. At first it smells like an average boring scent, perhaps with citrus notes. After a while it reminded me of a tamer, weaker version of Dirty English for men. Not a whole lot of longevity to the scent.

I like the smell, however, it smells almost exactly like Sean John's Unforgivable. Even though I do like Unforgivable, this one gets a neutral rating because its nothing new.

Unquestionably sour and citrusy in the opening. Dries down quickly into a musky woody accord. It's very, very sharp ad strong and goes from light to dark. A good fragrance and very uplifting. Just lacks longevity.

Saw this at Macys today=- I almost bought this blind online bc I really like the regular Ed Hardy. After smelling this fragrance, I would not have felt bad purchasing blind bc it is in the right category for me.

It is a nice light fresh (kinda fruity) scent, which seems very familiar to me. I would say its like a combination between Aqua Di Gio, YSL and another mystery scent. When first sprayed, It has a nice sharp lemony citrus scent- which quickly looses the lemony smell and goes into a deeper citrus. I smell the violet, and I love it, it gives a nice smooth center which sets this one apart from the fragrances it reminds me of.
I sprayed this on my hand @ Macys, then walked over to Nordstrom hoping to find a gift set- they did not even have this fragrance out- they said January- so I went back over to Macys and picked up a bottle.
If you loose yourself in teh fragrance, you pick up a faint pungent smell. This is where it reminds me of YSL. YSL works horribly on my skin, but Love and Luck seems to work wonders so far.

The base is nice, not too strong, not anything special. It has quite a few common notes to it, yet still manages to create its own scent. This will be a common fragrance in my repertoire.
