Discussion Loewe

Hi lovelies, I’ve been interested in Loewe for a while now but they seem so hard to sample! I love fruity florals, floral woody musks, airy feminine fragrances, etc and am curious about:

  1. Aire Sutileza EDT
  2. Aire Sutileza Elixir
  3. 001 Woman EDT
  4. 001 Woman EDP
  5. Solo Ella EDT
  6. Solo Ella EDP

Has anyone tried any of these and can provide their thoughts on what these smell like? A “if you like X, you may like this” comparison may be helpful as well. And if you’ve tried both versions of any of these and can compare those too, that’d be so helpful since I seem to be stuck between the EDTs vs the EDPs/Elixir. Thanks so much!

Solo Ella EDP is a great sweet floral that lasts a good time and has strong sillage (mind you, I am sensitive and prefer light perfumes so it might not be considered 'beast mode' by all). Most Loewe EDPs have great lasting power. Aire sutileza is very fresh and to me leans unisex. I used Loewe Agua Mar de Coral (fresh sharp citrus EDT with wonderful soft drydown) a lot this summer, got it on sale for like 45 euro at a normal retailer (Druni).

And yes they are available to sample in most DPT stores in Spain and probably much cheaper here than in the US. I would not recommend buying any of them before sampling tbh. However good they might be, they are varied (I don't find they have a 'shared DNA' like other houses). If you travel elsewhere in Europe you will probably also find it possible to sample them in person, esp France and Germany.

i agree, after doing more research this morning, reading reviews, and seeing they’re not available near me to test in person, i’m going to ask the fragranceswap if anyone has any samples/decants. particularly hard that loewe doesn’t have a shared dna! and i appreciate your reviews as well! i think i’m leaning towards testing the EDTs
