Justbox Perfumes - Live 'N' Loud Eau de Parfum

This week is National Fragrance Week and what a better way to celebrate it than to introduce a brand new scent from a brand that until now, I had never come across.  Jusbox fragrances are described collectively as being an exclusive range of luxury fragrances inspired by the connection between perfume and music.

Two things that evoke thoughts, feelings, memories and in some cases nostalgia are music and perfume.  I can always remember where I was and what I was doing when one of my favourite songs comes onto my Spotify playlist, it is on that favourites list for a reason and with it comes a whole host of memories.  With perfume, I have a collection of fragrances that mean something to me personally, be it Tribe (review here) which brings me back to my teenage years of Bvlgari Pour Femme which I wore on my wedding day, the two things combined is quite powerful.

Anyone who knows me will know that I love an Oud, not just any Oud, it has to be a good one and when you find one, you will know it is for you.  Live 'N' Loud comes exquisitely packaged from its brightly coloured musical note decorated outer box, to the inner detailing and the bottle itself, it screams luxury and it most definitely is and it also has quite the description.
Live’n’Loud is a scented compilation whose notes reproduce, through the aroma therapeutic power of smells, similar beneficial sensation as music genres. It conveys playlists that boost the mind. An opulent yet celebratory fragrance which starts with a hint of Disco and Hip-hop and then turns into more sensual accords of Latino and Rock. Punk and Heavy metal perform in the end to give power and adrenaline. Dominique Ropion played with spices, flowers, woods, amber and leather, to convey energy and zest.
The fragrance has top notes of Bergamot and Cardamom and when sprayed it is bright, it is fresh, it is zingy and it is warm. It is definitely a strong in your face kind of opening scent that you cannot help but love, I did as soon as I spritzed it. The middle notes of Cinnamon, Rose and Geranium take those strong opening notes and really brings them back down to earth as the freshness of the rose and geranium take control and allow the cinnamon to sit there in the background without taking over and dominating the fragrance.  As the scent settles the base notes of Patchouli, Amber, Myrrh, Sandalwood, Labdanum, musk and Oud which in this scent is Agarwood come together to bring about this incredible earthy scent that just grabs your attention and gives Live 'N' Loud its place within the Oudy Florential family.
