Loukhoum
Eau de Parfum
by Keiko Mecheri

The Scoop
A deliriously sweet and addictive fragrance inspired by the Turkish delicacy rahat loukhoum-- a confection of rose petal jam, noor dates and white almonds. Luxurious and dreamy, conjuring up visions of flying carpets, rose-colored clouds and opulent palaces. Rich vanilla and precious woods ease into a soft, powdery drydown that is hypnotically soothing. Warning: this fragrance is habit-forming.

Loukhoum Notes
hawthorn blossom, bulgarian rose absolute, precious woods, vanilla, Comores flowers, white almond, musk

I am not normally a fan of sweet or powdery scents, so was surprised to find myself attached to this one when sniffing around the store one day. Its unabashedness is charming. I've gotten many compliments that it smells fresh, so that's a good sign. If you are feeling cautious, try the Eau Poudree version, which is a little bit more grown up.

I actually expected this to smell more like L'Artisan's Traversee du Bosphore, so when I got my sample in the mail I was a little disappointed. However, over the course of one day, this fragrance became addictive for me, and now I'm about to order a full bottle! The other two (eau poudree and parfum du soir) are also lovely, but the original is the one I can imagine wearing every day, for almost any occasion. I'll probably break down and buy du soir before the year is over...it's just a little more sexy and...specific. But I love Loukhoum! My bank account probably hates me right now.

Love the bottle. Smelled really good in bottle. Nice almond and sweet rose beginning but on me the dry down was too powdery and fussy. If only it finished with more honey and vanilla. Just didn't like the end and had to wash off. Maybe on someone else.

This perfume is the most beautiful thing I've ever had the pleasure of wearing, I am seriously addicted right now!!! Yes, to begin with it starts of somewhat baby powdery, which I've no desire for at all.... but give it a few minutes and you (or at least I) et a sweet powdery incense of roses and honey and almonds...its simply beautiful. Those of you familiar with Snowcake by Lush, will adore this as its very similar, but far better and much sweeter! I'm saving up for a full bottle!

So I finally got a sample of the famous Loukhoum, by KM ... and what a stupendous let down it was! I thought I would smell warm, sweet and almondy. Instead, I smell J&J baby powder, as others correctly said. There is nothing sophisticated, grown-up about this, at all. It reminds me of a plastic doll I had when I was a kid. She smelled exactly like this. Yummy? Hardly. I would never eat anything that smelled like KM's Loukhoum.

I thought I'd fall in love with this scent, but nope. I found it to be too powdery, and I really enjoy other powdery scents a lot (Les Nereides- Douceur de Vanille for example). This just felt overpowering powdery to me. Oh well, I still think the brand is great. This one just wasn't good on me. Last a long time though and the sillage is quite strong.

At first I wasn't too impressed with this fragrance. It reminded me of powdery Cabbage Patch Kids, or the way My Little Ponies smell, but with some cherry Ludens in the background. Then I noticed I kept reaching for my sample until it was completely gone. I especially love putting this fragrance on my neck, and then putting a scarf on to heat it up and create a halo of nostalgic 80s comfort. I grew addicted to the Lolita appeal of this fragrance. It's got that sexy-child kind of vibe, and I will probably purchase a full bottle in the future. Also, this really blooms with my skin chemistry, and lasts all day.

I am 100% anti-powder, but this fragrance is wearable for me. It is a sophisticated powder fragrance with no likeness of baby powder or grandma. It has a sweetness to it that reminds me of honeyed fruit. It might be a little strong to some initially, but the dry-down is very comforting.

I received a sample of this with an order for something else. I'm not usually into gourmande fragrances, but I loved Loukoum instantly and it got better as it dried down. I find this to be delicious, warm and not too sweet - like brandied pears; perfect for the holidays. I have gotten many compliments when I wear this fragrance and the scent really lasts.

Keiko Mecheri's Loukhoum artfully mixes notes that are found in loukhoum (rose, almond) but unlike Serge Lutens' Rahat Loukhoum, there is none of that "super sweetness". You don't feel like you're smelling like food. It is suprinsingly dry, with a powdery feel to it that makes it unexpected and unconventionnal. 5 stars for sure.

Take the worst vanilla, powder, and cherry scent that you have ever encountered, and you have Loukhoum. The scent is terribly synthetic and wierd. Montale's sweet oriental dream is a similar, better choice, if you like this type of scent.

Loukhoum is so nice...I love it more every time I use it. It does smell like the real turkish delight without the sugar. I can not say enough good things...each person receives her individual gift from perfume but Loukhoum is lovely and eloquent.

It's sweet and almond-y--and unlike some of KM other perfumes it has a much longer lasting power on me. And while it is nice; it's not WOW. Although for a gourmand style perfume it is understated and not in your face which is very appealing.

Yikes - this was WAY too sweet and powdery on me; almost reminded me of the way cabbage patch dolls smell (not a bad smell, but certainly NOT what I want to smell like). You really must adore gourmands to get into Loukhoum. Not for me.

I loved this scent at first whiff but once on my skin it developed into something 'too much' - too much powder, sweetness and intensity. And my husband, who usually loves gourmand fragrances, thought it was incredibly cloying.

I love this fragrance! It is sweet and powdery, but that's my thing. Obviously the same scents don't appeal to everyone. But the best part about this scent is that LASTS ALL DAY and even after work when I go to the gym and get a good workout in I CAN STILL SMELL IT! Don't be fooled by the price tag either - it's a huge bottle. I will definitely buy more of this brand.

Natasha - from Chicago

At first very powdery. But based on the reviews decided to give it time. An hour later was much fonder. 4 hours later deep in the throws of love. On me it starts off powder then the powder gently wisps away to reveal the true scent, as if hiding from detection, not letting you experience it, not letting you really know who it is until….it trusts you enough… and then….and only then….oh what a wonderful comforting, and somehow captivating scent. Drawing you into its grasp revealing its sensual soul to an entrusted few. Like a lover long pushed from memory it blooms exposing not your thoughts, but its true intent, to have you enthralled in its spell. And you ever so innocently drawn to the hidden and forbidden depth. Ok give it an hour and it smells d#*n wonderful!

Not being a big fan of sweet powdery fragrances I decided to try a sample just for a change. Usually I go for spicey, heady types of perfumes and I am really very surprised how much I like this. Loukhoum starts off a little too sweet, but settles down to a wonderful almond and to me cherry scent that is not too loud or overpowering. There is some powder scent but it is not at all baby powdery which fades fairly quickly. Lucky Scent has the description spot on : This may become addicting

If you've ever eaten Loukhoum (or "Turkish Delight") you'll understand why this fragrance is so aptly named! The scent is sweet without being overpowering... it's musky enough to evoke Oriental mystery and sensuality... and the faint after-scent of powdered sugar wraps the whole experience with a sublime delicacy. It's part angel, part vixen... and very, very alluring.

I normally hate sweet powdery scents (especially ones with vanilla notes), but this is actually pretty interesting. I certainly got the powder, but for some reason what this most reminded me of was hiking in the late summer. This scent really evokes that hot, somewhat cloying (but nice), smell of pine resin and freshly opened pine cones. Weird, huh? Or maybe my nose is nuts!

The first time I tried this one, it was "bleah! Powder!" I did not get the gourmand notes at all.

I was ok with this scent when I put it on. It seemed soft and pretty but then my husband asked me what I was wearing. I told him it was a new perfume sample and he started to laugh and told me to get rid of it. He said it smells exactly like the urinal deodorizer cakes they place in the men’s rest rooms. So needless to say I am getting rid of it.

Though nicer than either, this reminds me a little of Vera Wang Princess (or at least the VWP dry down on me to a powdery softeness) and Love's Baby Soft. Good staying power for me too. Scent was also consistent between application and dry down, at least to my nose. Also, good news for those who tend to be heavyhanded fragrance appliers - this is comforting and nonoffensive enough that you can apply away and there's little collateral damage. :)

To me, this is exactly what Exact Friction of Stars would smell like if you took out the orange, chocolate, and vanilla. This smells really yummy, but I love EFOS so much better because of all the vanilla. This was so almondy on me. but the longer I wore it, the more it grew on me. If I wore it everyday I would probably love it, but I already have a bottle of EFOS which fullfills my 'yummy fall scent' need. The staying power is awesome! I still smelled it after my shower!

Delightful, and I'm very glad that I snagged one of these gift sets to get that nifty purse spray. For all the rose and powder, the edible delight of pistachio and sugar comes thundering through, and lasts for hours. The rose is, of course, a foodie rose - an arabic candy rose, a delicious, understated rose. And the powder? All powdered sugar, babee. I feel delicious when I wear this.

Zhara -Haflacrat from Gleann Abhann

OK, posting back after using up my sample. I did end up buying a full bottle. I ended up addicted as so many others have. The scent is luscious, heavy at first, but dries down to soft vanilla musk with hints of marshmallow and cherries on me. There is almond in the beginning. This lasts ALL day, it is quite a bargain in that respect. I only need a little sprtiz in the morning and you can still smell it at bedtime. My friend brought me back Loukhoum from Turkey at Christmas and there are some similarities, but I've learned that there are many varieties of Loukoum candy--the sweetness, sugary almond scent are there in both candy and perfume, I smelled more rose in the candy than in the perfume. Unfortunately! I would have liked a little more rose. However, it is still a great and unusual scent. I like that nobody else wears it and my children love it. It's a cozy yet classy scent. I agree with the poster who said that you could wear this anywhere. Highly recommend!

I have to update my review. I haven't decided to buy a bottle yet, but like so many others, Loukoum is growing on me. I keep going back to the sample even though I have about 9 others from Lucky Scent to try. This is like the vampires of perfumes or something...it draws you in and makes you love it. If I use just a dab it dries down to something very wearable. Soft, sweet, but complex. It doesn't smell like every other vanilla/candy scent out there. Once I finish the sample I"ll report back whether or not I purchased the bottle!

Heidi -SAHM from Hartford

This is a really lovely and unique fragrance, but not for me. It is so sickly sweet upon first spritz, it is almost nauseating. Drydown takes a LONG time...this definitely lasts and lasts. From shower to shower as they say. But the drydown takes too long on me before it reaches a place where I can enjoy it. It did help me to figure out that I am looking for a light skin scent, because what I like most about this is the end of the drydown, where you can smell the musk and vanilla. A friend is bringing me back some authentic Loukhoum from Turkey at Christmas and I look forward to comparing them, though!

Wow. I have been going through my sample from Lucky for the last couple of days and so far things have been...Okkaaaaay, and then this! This is really a fine piece of artistry...it smells like so many things but just not quite..so that you get the joys of familiarity and newness at the same time. Very baby pwderish, very light sweet vanilla...a good strong honey...unfortunately i get no rose but a little hawthorn. I think it's definitely an evening scent and I am still not sure if I could wear it or not...it's on the verge of being too girly or womanly really. hmm.

When I first tried SL's Rahat Loukhoum, I thought it to be the end-all, be-all of loukhoums; KM's Loukhoum, after all, opened up with too much rose petal and knocked me down the way one never hopes to be knocked down by fragrance. But a year or so later, after revisiting KM's version, I think I'm falling in love. It's very rich on first spritz, but then calms to a soft baby powder/vanilla/almond fragrance that's nothing short of sweet and sexy. I'd love this in roll-on form, so I can subtly dab it behind my neck, by my hairline. Love it!

Malia -Makeup artist from Ontario, Canada

Oooooooooooh! LOVE this! I do agree with another reviewer that this wasn't "love at first whiff", but isn't falling in love what it's all about? This one grew on me. No rough edges, a nice blurry scent mix, with (yes) the powdery note taking prominance for awhile. But that works on me! Couldn't catch the rose note, but a sultry vanilla note really pleased my nose. Great staying power without the slightest hint of a headache, and I'd feel comfortable yet feminine in this one for day or night wear. A feel-good fragrance that makes me feel "dressed" regardless of how casual I'm dressed. This one sold me.

I expected to love it b/c I love vanilla and rose scents. And rahat loukhuom is one of my favorite sweets, which has a beatiful scent. But all I smell is baby powder.

Loukhoum is my signature scent... I fell in love with its light sugary scent the moment I first breathed it in. My only complaint is that the fragrance fades quicky...

Aack! I had to scrub this off immediately! Smelled of some sort of baby wipes on my skin, coupled with rotten fruit! So much for chemistry. This is the reason that sampling is so essential when choosing a scent; if I'd gone by description, notes, and comments alone, I would've bought this in a heartbeat and consequently been 80.00 poorer!

Loukhoum is absolutely darling. It is so fluffy soft and sweet (not candy sweet but precious), the musk is perfectly balanced with all the other notes. It's enchanting, but in a very unassuming way. Loukhoum has a way of making you say yes with no hard edges. No hard edges, yet it is still exotic.

Loukhoum is enchanting and luxurious. It's the longest lasting fragrance I've ever worn in my life. I like to wear this one best during cold weather, especially at night.

love this and if you crave soft skin scents with a twist this may be the one. chenistry makes a big difference. its very powdery on some, but it works well with my own chemistry. first a soft cloud of cherry almond powder and the drydown is more almond with a hint of powder. it is a sweet scent, and not for everyone. it definitely has more "bang" than you would think. someone told me it smelled like a baby's skin after its powdered...

Never thought I'd use the words "clean" and "vanilla" together to describe a scent, but that's what Loukhoum is--a very fresh-smelling oriental. I'm surprised it has so many flowers in it, when all I can smell is the vanilla, almond and a touch of honey. Comparable to Lea St. Barth in both smell and price, but this one has greater staying power.

very gentle...soft & nutty, vanilla...pricey but beautiful. my man adored it. makes you seem edible! don't know what a "rahat loukhoum" is (or how to pronounce it), but if it smells like this i'd love to try one!

This has to be one of the prettiest scents that I have ever smelled. Plus, it lasted all day on my skin. It's such a soft scent that can be worn year round.

I prefer this to SL's Loukhoum - much softer.

Absolutely fell in love with this at first sniff. Lasts all day and the vanilla exoticness I never tire of. Wear it everyday.

After reading some of the comments I could not wait to receive the sample! However, I was disappointed! I have actually eaten a loukhoumi (I'm Greek) and this is nothing like it. This scent was too strong for me. Sorry!

This is just pure comfort to me. I love vanilla and I love smelling yummy, this is the most exciting find in a long time. Ordered it as a sample and just ordered the full size. Thank you LuckyScent, us girls(and guys!) can always depend on you to seek out the unique and special stuff. Fragrance is Fashion+ Fashion is Fragrance!

Neither the musk nor rose developed on me. It smelled like baby powder with added creaminess from almond and vanilla. Sultry and warm. A tad too much powder for me personally, but I like the fragrance overall.

Absolutely love this soft powdery ultra feminine scent. Has incredible staying power. Some people compare it to Rahat by Serge Lutens but this one is far superior.

The sample smelled more like baby powder than the full-sized bottle of fragrance. On me this is a sublime, soft, powdery, vanillic musky skin scent. Every now and then I catch a whiff of the decadent dessert for which it was named. Creamy, powdery and unusual.

Cinnamon and baby powder, if you like that. Very powdery.

I expected to wear this as a "going out" scent because of all the rich notes - and it is great for that- but the drydown is so soft and comforting that I'm reaching for it as an everyday scent as well. Very nice.

I've never had a bad experience trying one of Lucky Scent's new frangrances and this is no exception. I've had tons of compliments on this fantastic scent.

Carolyn -Banker from Los Angeles

Definitely a sweet, powdery fragrance...it started out richly honeyed, which I loved, and then dried down into something so familiar - but I can't quite put my finger on it. Definitely a "baby powder" aspect to it, and I can smell the almond distinctly. Definitely intriguing and elusive...will have to let this set and take my darling husband's opinion.

Smelled like baby powder on me.

Wonderful alternative to the near impossible to find Serge Lutens Rahat Loukoum. This is a light, clean, almond, vanilla, musk scent with tremendous staying power. It's a perfect blend of clean and sweet without being cloying.
