JLo Perfumes: DeSeo Perfume

Deseo perfume has a image that is unique from the rest of the Jennifer Lopez perfume lines. The Deseo perfume bottle was designed by JLo herself together with the Coty Prestige team. Deseo means "desire, wish, dream" or "I desire"

The flacon represents a diamond in the rough and what is interesting to note further is that it was apparently designed to suggest the dynamic movement of someone springing forth. In the often decried world of celebrity fragrances, Jennifer Lopez has managed to be both a 21st century trend-setter and standard-bearer of good quality mass-marketed perfumes that aim to please without being condescending to the masses. Balance, prettiness, even beauty, and quality ingredients can be expected from her brand. Deseo continues to keep these values active.

The scent is said to have been inspired by the olfactory sensations found in Jennifer Lopez's private garden in Florida during a midnight walk just before a storm. It is classified as mainly being a woody floral by Coty - which seems to leave out the fruitier, greener, and watery central toddy accord - and one would not hesitate to classify it as a "beach scent" as well.

Before that the scent becomes grassier, sappier letting out some more characteristic green nuances, which then are evocative of a fresh garden. Peppery and dewy floral accents develop, Freesia in particular. A subtle fruity-floral tropical bouquet ensues with a noticeable juicy pineapple note that is done in a hyper-realistic style. The dry-down seems to be less tenacious or more subtle but also more complex than with some of her other scents. The coconut accord weaving its way throughout the scent is particularly subtle and pleasurable, smelling of a refined Pina Colada in the end. The "mineral accord" in the base notes evoked in the official note description by Coty is perceptible to our nose as a realistic hot-sand accord.
