I really love L'Oreal's So Delice line, and this lipstick is no exception. "Sugar-n-Spice" is a plummy/berry shade with a bit of brown that I would say is of medium intensity. It looks darker in the tube but like all So Delice lipsticks you can wear it sheer or layer for more coverage. I find that all of my So Delice colors have a slightly different (but good) scent and I think this one smells the best. This is a good fall/winter color but it is so nice I don't think I can put it away for spring! If you prefer more classic, neutral shades then give this one a try!
