LoveMe The Onyx
ScentArt
Which Should You Buy?
This is a truly divisive scent; some call it a 'masterpiece' of luxurious, creamy florals and vanilla, while others are entirely underwhelmed, finding it generic or too sweet. It's either your dream gourmand floral or a 'pretentious fabric softener'.
Prepare for a delightful surprise: TOUS LoveMe The Onyx, despite its 'dark' name, is a sweet, creamy gourmand that’s either a love-at-first-sniff or a 'meh' for those expecting something more complex. It's a playful, feminine treat, not the mysterious scent the bottle suggests.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.
Occasions
Its potent projection and intense sweetness make it less suitable for the office or sport. However, its 'sensual' and 'luxurious' character, frequently described as a 'date night' or 'wedding perfume', makes it ideal for romantic evenings and formal events.
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.
Occasions
This is a predominantly sweet, gourmand-leaning scent well-suited for informal settings. Its moderate sillage and often criticised longevity make it less ideal for formal events or the office, where subtlety and restraint are often preferred, but perfect for casual wear and dates.
Similarity Breakdown
Both share Vanilla, Floral, Powdery accords and Vanilla, Heliotrope notes
