Derek Lam 2Am Kiss - 1.7 oz EDP Spray

The bottle and packaging was beautiful! Very impressed for a $40 fragrance— Comes with a lot too. I also didn’t experience the leakage that someone reported here. The 2AM scent starts off with a fruity incense scent that I was crazy about before it dried into something very powdery and girlish. It reminds me of the scented baby powders that dollar tree sells. Not bad, just not what I was expecting. The notes in the description do not match the dry down. It does have good longevity and throw! If you like powdery, sweet without being sugary, and a mild floral scent you may like this! Good value for the money too.

Okay, I never write reviews about perfumes cause I’m always disappointed when I get it and people said it smelled so good. I want to say that paired with Wild Spirits “Chill” is so yummy and compliments each other so well! Wild Spirits is like a baby version of Derek Lams 2 AM Kiss. However, without it being paired with anything it’s still so good! This scent is sexy , ambery, sweet/caramel, and spicy but in a good way. I feel like this scent is good either day or night and so versatile. Please give it a try if you’re thinking about it.

Some of the reviews for 2AM KISS are accurate in stating that the scent is reminiscent of grandma perfumes and creams. I sprayed this and let it settle for a while, and It does in fact smell like my grandma’s Avon creams. It lasts a while, but i was expecting more of a sexy, edgy smell, this didn’t match what I envisioned. Perhaps the OTHER scents are much better than this one… kinda disappointed. Also, a previous review was also right in saying that the opening note is harsh. The opening note is almost like a bug spray scent… it takes a while to reach a pleasant middle note.

Bottle is cute but was leaking all over. Not sure how much was lost as the bottle isn't full so not sure how full they should come. As for the smell. I truly thought it was going to smell different. I'm going to have to try it a few days and see if I like it. Update: still likes to leak and I use it just to use it up but definitely not my favorite it is definitely more of a musky smell.

A little goes a long way; spray lightly at first and enjoy the spicy warmth undertones as the scent settles in…I love it!
