Rolling in Love
by By Kilian
Rolling in Love by By Kilian is a soft, creamy, and intimate gourmand floral fragrance centered around almond milk, iris, and a delicate vanilla-tonka musk base. It opens with a bright, sweet almond note blended with a subtle cherry-like hint and fresh freesia, forming a lightweight, powdery, and slightly floral vibe. Over time, the fragrance evolves into a warm, skin-like scent with a creamy, milky sweetness and a refined floral core dominated by tonka and tuberose. Many appreciate the scent as elegant, wearable, and romantically seductive—perfect for date nights or intimate settings—but the performance is consistently reported as weak. The sillage is gentle and intimate, with little projection beyond arm's length, and longevity is limited to around 4 hours on skin, though it lingers significantly longer on clothing. The scent is universally described as feminine and sophisticated, with notes that evoke luxury bath butter, powdered makeup, or even nostalgic Japanese candies. However, it’s also frequently criticized for being overpriced, especially given its lack of projection and moderate longevity.
Pros
- +Famous for its smooth, creamy, and intimate almondy floral scent that rivals the elegance of high-end designer perfumes.
- +Highly addictive and sensory-intoxicating, often described as 'a bottled romance' with a voluptuous, skin-like quality.
- +Well-balanced, refined composition with notes of almond, tuberose, iris, and vanilla, which many find soft, elegant, and mature.
Cons
- −Consistently criticized for weak sillage and poor longevity, fading rapidly within 2–4 hours on skin.
- −Overpriced relative to performance, with many users calling it not worth the price for a 50 mL bottle.
- −A significant number of users find it generic, unoriginal, or too similar to mass-market florals like Good Girl or Scarlet Poppy.
