LA RIVE Wave of Love is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2018. Wave of Love opens with Black Elder, Lemon, and Lilac, settles into a heart of Wisteria, Osmanthus, Peony, and Peach, and dries down to a base of Musk, Amber, and Cedar. LA RIVE's Wave of Love carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

This budget-friendly scent is either a fresh, floral dream or a lemon-scented cleaning product, depending on your skin chemistry and the weather. A divisive dupe, it's loved for its tea and purple florals, but often criticised for poor performance.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

A warm-weather pick - at its best in spring and summer.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport

Its fresh, clean profile makes it perfect for casual wear, office environments, and even light activity, as it's unlikely to offend. The moderate longevity and sillage, alongside its airy character, mean it won't overpower, though it may require reapplication for longer events.

About

Wave of Love opens with a bright, zesty burst of lemon, softened by the delicate, powdery sweetness of black elder and lilac. As it settles, a charming heart of wisteria, peony, and osmanthus emerges, intertwined with a subtle, watery peach and a distinctive tea note, adding a crisp, airy quality. The dry down is a gentle embrace of clean musk, warm amber, and grounding cedar, providing a soft, comforting finish.
