L, a L.A.M.B. by Gwen Stefani, Perfume for Women: Review

I used to love Gwen Stefani when she was the lead in No Doubt. Since that little group split, I haven't payed her much mind. That was until recently though.

I seen an advertisement with her endorsing some new fragrance. A name I still don't know how to pronounce, a name that may stand for something, yet at the same time it could stand for nothing. Either way, its gibberish. It's called L, a L.A.M.B. (Pretty damn retarded right?) Could you imagine walking into a perfume store and asking for that?! Me either.
 
When I realized that L, a L.A.M.B was not in stores for me to sample. I figured I'd go to their main site and see if they were giving out some form of free samples through the mail. (A LOT of newly released fragrances will mail you free samples nowadays).
 
It took about 3 weeks to get to my house, but L, a L.A.M.B. finally made it to my mailbox.

Scent:
 
When I think of Gwen Stefani, I think of beer, gasoline, and car oil. She remained the rough rugged chick I remembered her as when I was a fan of hers in the 90's. She was a chick, but for me, she always had this masculine vibe going on. I imagined this perfume she was endorsing would have a masculine touch.

Not so though.
 
I rubbed some of the sample onto my clothing, and onto my wrists. L, a L.A.M.B. smelled like a rainbow of girly goodness. The first initial scent I picked up was honeysuckle, and it reminded me a lot of Daisy Fuentes So Luxurious perfume. Honeysuckle and flowers.

L, a L.A.M.B. smelled familiar, but as I began to pick up more fragrances from it, I became more and more impressed. I was able to pick up notes of hyacinth, jasmine, and musk. Combined the fragrance is very floral, and noticeable...yet at the same time it is also very delicate and light.

Last:
 
The small sample I received went a long way. I am happy to say that L, a L.A.M.B. lasts for the majority of the day. On my wrists the lovely light floral scent stuck around for about 3 hours. On my clothing though, I was able to smell the scent all day long. The scent though didn't stick around on my clothing till the next day though. It does however last long enough to consider it a nice long lasting high quality perfume.

Recommended Wear:
 
I truly think that L, a L.A.M.B. is an awesome fragrance for spring wear. It smells like blossoming flowers, and has that light and fresh touch that reminds me of spring gardens that have recently poked open to take a peek at the world.

Overall:
 
Love, love, love it. L, a L.A.M.B. has a gorgeous floral scent that lasts throughout the day. It may seem a little familiar to other floral fragrances on the market right now, but as soon as the other scents in the perfume start to bloom, you will notice that it is distinct scent all its own. Like warm flower syrup.

Pricing and Availability:
 
You can find L, a L.A.M.B. at local perfume outlets, or online. The price will vary anywhere from $50.00 to $70.00.
