Writing A Love Scene in A Novel

I have come to a point where two of my characters become involved in a romantic relationship, I have to write a love scene in a novel, and this is something new for me.
The questions I am now faced with are:

Do I write a brief outline, and getting the reader to do the work using their imagination? Lots of guess work, with touches of romance and roses.

Do I write a deeply, Victorian, virginal type. The Mr Darcy type of love declaration?


Or
Do I go for a full seduction chapter. The slow build up, romancing and then write a sexual scene?

They say that sex sells but if I write the latter, will I be taking my book on a different level? I will probably catch the eye of a different reader than I had first thought I would attract, so do I have to make changes all the way through for this new reader?

Will I be capable of writing a strong enough storyline to capture the reader?
So many questions and descisions...I have decided to write a novel, what do I expect!?

Why not write it the way it comes out? I mean write it naturally as it flows. That way it will fir in with the way the rest of the book is written.
