This gem is Xerjoff's Lira on steroids. Absolutely delicious with incredible sillage and longevity. My husband says I smell so yummy, like a scrumptious lemon vanilla cake. This was a
blind buy and I don't regret it! I absolutely love it!

I'll have to write this anonymously so Xerjoff doesn't know I'm cheating.

She is giving Lira's older sexier sister vibes. Opening with explosion of juicy mandarin, a gourmand perfume, very subtle star anise. A delicate floral. Beautifully balanced.

Beautiful lemon cake scent that lasts forever. I know there’s many perfumes in this category but Love & Crime is the best in my opinion.

Citrusy, sweet vanilla, creating a sort of concentrated madeleine accord.

The smell of vanilla has been used as an aphrodisiac for centuries. After a lot of enthusiastic and meticulous sniffing, I can confidently write that when you are wearing Love & Crime, you are wielding The Lasso™.

First sniff in store, where the attentive staff kindly gave us a sample (and many more!). If you are nearby, you need to stop by, I guarantee you will be thrilled.

PS. I purchased a full bottle and I hope my gf is not reading this.

I got this perfume because it was touted to be a stronger dupe for Lira and I will say it did not disappoint. I LOVE Lira but I have the kind of skin that eats perfume so I was looking for something I could pair it with and I purchased this and I have ZERO regrets. It opens with a citrusy burst of freshness but not screechy or abrasive to the nose, just a warm fresh lemony scent. It then slowly blossoms into a sweet, rich, warm and comforting gourmand scent with the citrus just wafting about here and there. It is gourmand in the truest sense of the word, it smells DELICIOUS. I wish there was a larger size because I would love a 50ml or 100ml of this but I will love my little bottle for now. Its lasting power is 5 plus hours on me and then it fades into the background BUT is still present and makes an appearance here and there and is lovely. I highly recommend.
