My Only Wish

La Rive My Only Wish is a women's fragrance from the Polish brand La Rive. It's an Eau de Parfum that is a popular and very affordable alternative to a specific designer perfume.

The Scent Profile

My Only Wish is a Floral Fruity fragrance, often with a gourmand and sweet character. Its key notes are:

• Top Notes: A bright, fruity opening with raspberry, tangerine, lemon, and bergamot.

• Heart Notes: The middle notes are a floral blend of orange blossom, ginger flower, gardenia, jasmine, and rose, with a touch of amber.

• Base Notes: The dry down is sweet and creamy with notes of caramel, milk, vanilla, and a hint of spice from cardamom and licorice, rounded out by sandalwood and benzoin.

The overall scent is a mix of sweet, juicy fruits, a rich floral core, and a warm, milky, and slightly spicy base.

Comparison to Other Perfumes

La Rive My Only Wish is widely considered a "dupe" for Cacharel's Yes I Am. Both fragrances share a very similar DNA, with a prominent raspberry and creamy, milky-spicy base.

Many reviewers note that My Only Wish successfully captures the sweet, fruity, and sensual essence of Yes I Am at a tiny fraction of the cost. While it may not have the exact same complexity or long-lasting power as the designer version, its strong resemblance makes it a great value for those who love the original's scent profile.

Performance

As with most La Rive fragrances, the performance of My Only Wish is generally moderate. It's an Eau de Parfum, but its longevity and projection are often cited as being decent for the price, though it might not last all day without reapplication. Its affordability makes it an easy choice for daily use or for a fun, sweet scent.
