LA RIVE Taste of Kiss is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018. Taste of Kiss opens with Bergamot, Pear, and Tangerine, settles into a heart of Rose, Orchid, Strawberry, and Passionfruit, and dries down to a base of Papyrus, Patchouli, Vanilla, and Coffee. LA RIVE's Taste of Kiss carries a Statement verdict, a sweet-led wear.

A divisive dupe that punches well above its weight for the price. Some call it an absolute gem and even prefer it to the original, while others find it cheap, synthetic, and headache-inducing. It's a low-risk blind buy, so if you're curious, give it a go.

About

Opens with a burst of sweet, juicy pear and tangerine, quickly transitioning to a heart of rich strawberry and exotic passionfruit, softened by elegant rose and orchid. The dry down is a complex gourmand fantasy, blending creamy praline and caramel with a hint of coffee, warm vanilla, and a mysterious, smoky touch of incense and patchouli. A unique sweet and spicy profile.
