Review of Love and Glamour Body Lotion, by Jennifer Lopez

Whenever Jennifer Lopez releases a new fragrance, I am amongst the thousands of fans who scamper about looking for it. This year I did not have to look for her newest Love and Glamour fragrance, as it was a top on my holiday list.

I received the gift set, which includes the body lotion, the fragrance, and of course the shower gel. With any gift set though, any fragrance fanatic knows well enough that the best thing in such a set is usually just the perfume, while the lotion and shower gel sort of sit back and take a seat, not capable of impressing quite as much as the fragrance.

This rule rings true when it comes to the Love and Glamour Body Lotion.

The Scent:
 
The fragrance you get from this particular body lotion matches perfectly to the perfume. It has a light fruity presence about it, which eventually simmers down into a more peachy nectarine and fruit platter musk. It is a fresh and clean scent, which is easily likable, but at the same time it has been done before.
In fact, to me it smells a lot like her Love At First Glow, which is part of her Glow collection. Love and Glamour is a stand alone fragrance, part of no collection, sort of like her My Glow fragrance, which sucks by the way.

In fact most of her stand alone fragrances have failed to impress me.

The Texture:
 
The Love and Glamour Body Lotion has the same run of the mill texture that any body lotion has regarding celebrity perfume sets. It's a little runny, smells nice, but does not do a thing if you are looking for some actual moisture. It's more of a fragrance lotion, nothing more, nothing less.

The Last:
 
And here is where we fall into the main issue I have with the Love and Glamour fragrance. The last is pretty horrendous, considering this fragrances asking price. Granted it is a new release, the price does not justify the pitiful last you get with this one. The boy lotion is no different.

Usually when I layer a body lotion with a perfume I get more mileage on the last. This body lotion however fizzles out in fragrance before I even get the opportunity to layer it up with the perfume.

Overall:
 
Sadly Jennie from the block, this body lotion is pretty useless. Granted it gives off a nice scent at first, it has no last to it at all.

For all you Lopez fragrance fans out there, this would be the one to skip on.
