LA RIVE Cuté is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012. Cuté opens with Peony, Freesia, and Litchi, settles into a heart of Magnolia and Lily Of The Valley, and dries down to a base of Amber, Cedar, and Sandalwood. LA RIVE's Cuté carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

This perfume is a divisive one, hailed as a dead ringer for Chloe EDP by some, whilst others find it cheap, synthetic, and disappointing. Expect a fresh, floral scent that's hit-or-miss but universally acknowledged as affordable.

About

Cuté opens with a lively burst of fresh peony and litchi, gently spiced by freesia. This soon gives way to a white floral heart of magnolia and lily of the valley, delicate yet present. The base settles into a comforting woody blend of sandalwood and cedar, with a subtle warmth from amber, creating a clean, slightly powdery finish.
