Look of Woman

La Rive Look of Woman is a women's fragrance from the Polish brand La Rive. It's an Eau de Parfum known for being a very affordable alternative to a popular and iconic designer perfume.

The Scent Profile

Look of Woman is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance. Its scent profile is often described as clean, musky, and floral. The key notes are:

• Top Notes: Pear and ambrette (musk mallow). This provides a soft, fruity, and slightly sweet opening with a musky undertone.

• Heart Notes: Rose, ylang-ylang, and aquatic notes. This creates a clean, elegant, and dewy floral bouquet in the middle.

• Base Notes: Amber, nutmeg, sandalwood, and patchouli. These notes provide a warm, velvety, and slightly woody foundation that gives the fragrance depth and longevity.

The overall aroma is often described as fresh, clean, and elegant, with a sophisticated musky finish.

Comparison to Other Perfumes

La Rive Look of Woman is widely considered a "dupe" for Narciso Rodriguez For Her Eau de Parfum. The two fragrances share a similar DNA, with a prominent rose and musk combination.

Many reviewers note that Look of Woman successfully captures the clean, musky, and slightly powdery essence of the Narciso Rodriguez classic. While it may not have the exact same complexity or long-lasting power as the designer version, its strong resemblance at a fraction of the cost makes it a great option for those who love the original's scent profile.

Performance

As with most La Rive fragrances, the performance of Look of Woman is generally moderate. It's an Eau de Parfum, but its longevity and projection are decent for the price, though not at the level of a high-end luxury brand. It's a great choice for everyday wear, especially for a sophisticated and clean scent in an office or a daytime setting.
