Self-love crush is a women's eau de parfum by The Perfumist Ici Paris XL, a fragrance brand from the Netherlands.
The composition belongs to the floral and fruity families, so its mood is built around juicy brightness, airy petals, and a soft sensual accent.
The name Self-love crush gives the fragrance an emotional dimension: it is a perfume about self-appreciation, the pleasure of one's own image, and a light romantic mood.
It smells feminine, distinctive, and modern, maintaining a balance between playful fruity freshness and elegant floral softness.
At first, the fragrance comes across as sparkling and cheerful: its fruity-citrus impression quickly attracts attention and makes the composition especially expressive.
It then becomes more floral, rounded, and delicate, before acquiring a warm woody-musky depth in the dry-down.
Its very strong sillage makes Self-love crush a choice for those who enjoy noticeable fragrances and want their perfume to linger in the air after they leave.
At the same time, the composition retains a sense of lightness thanks to its fruity and floral nuances, so its character feels emotional and alluring rather than heavy.
The perfume is well suited to walks, dates, meetings with friends, and other occasions when you want to add confidence and appeal to your look.
The fruity-floral profile unfolds especially naturally in spring and summer, but its expressive sillage also allows it to be worn in cooler seasons, with a more restrained application.
Since no precise recommendations are provided for applying it to skin or clothing, it is best to start with one or two sprays on the skin and assess how intensely it develops.
On clothing, the fragrance may last longer and smell more pronounced, so care should be taken and the fabric should be considered.
Self-love crush showcases an appealing side of The Perfumist Ici Paris XL's aesthetic: approachable, emotional, and focused on the pleasure of an everyday fragrance ritual.
The lack of information about the perfumer and release year does not prevent us from appreciating its main strength: an expressive combination of fruity juiciness, floral femininity, and a sensual base.
Those drawn to playful fruity-floral fragrances with a noticeable presence should take a look at Lanvin Jeanne.
Self-love crush nevertheless has a character of its own, emphasizing a rich sillage, a radiant opening, and a soft musky-woody finish.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a fresh scent that is not too intense, so it does not overwhelm those around you with strong essences
