I can’t be the only dude that wore this!
Back in 1988, this was my summer. I tried the men’s version, and it was ok, maybe even good. But this was so much better, even for a guy. The men’s version smelled slightly sweet, but it had a chemical nuance that was a little off-putting, like Endust (NOT Lemon Pledge).
The women’s version was heady, strong but not overbearing, complex, sweet, but not cloying, and as others have noted, was unisex despite its label as a women’s fragrance.
I rocked this stuff with my cuffed acid washed jeans, my bright teal Swatch Watch, and a mullet. I wish they would bring back this original formulation.

This scent was the scent of sex and adventures to me, it was intoxicating, addictive, relentless and I wanted it all of the time, every day and night it was my whole being. I became its loyal slave. I am not surprised it’s by B Ellena, the man is a genius at capturing feelings and Colours really is about that coming of age and everything thats attached to that memory.
Bottles… I’VE HAD A FEW… ! I had to giggle at Monaleesa’s story, oh yeah, the big bottle had to be bought!!
Do not touch any reformulation of this, you will wonder what we’re all talking about… and you’ll miss the intoxicating ride of this fantastic, completely UNIQUE vintage formulation.

I loved this layered with Dior’s Poison – you would imagine the result would be the equivalent to a massive blow horn (maybe to others it was who knows, haha) but to my nose they blended perfectly. I have purchased several vintage bottles only to find that every one of them had turned so it would appear I am out of luck.
* If anyone has a good vintage bottle and wants to swap decants please let me know – I would love to combine the 2 again just for the trip down memory lane.

I bought this at the mall back in high school, 1992. My bff bought something…I forget what. She was a fragrance lover though and was wearing Dali, Dune, and Joop in 11th grade. We went out one Friday night and bought perfume.
A lot of girls wore this back in the 80s and early 90s. My high school smelled like this, Calyx, Beautiful, and Obsession.
Going back in my memory this smelled quite unique and I’ve yet to stumble upon a dupe. Maybe, just maybe Kat Von D Sinner??
Herbal. Almost like a good herbal, spicy 80s shampoo like Flex.
Look at all those notes! Sounds weird, huh? They worked together though. It was a deep, youthful scent and I miss it terribly.

Iconic fragance! of cult! Morden and vanguardist … with the hold and power of the icons from previous decades… Really complex, intoxicant, magnetic … Similar to nothing!!! It was reformulated horribly years later.

I used it in highschool and really liked it. Somewhat unisex, should I say?
Never liked the bottled though: it lacks the juvenile spirit of the brand, is too structured and geometric thus downgrading the fragrance.

Good lord, I miss this stuff so much. The reformulation doesn’t come close.

This was one of my favorite scents! Every summer they would come out with a large lotion and I would always get so many compliments on the scent. I miss this fragrance so much!

I too want to smell this fragrance again! I used it in high school. I miss it and would love to smell the sent again… I don’t know if I would even like it as an adult– but I would sure love to see for myself! I think Benetton no longer makes it… and i would be kind of scared to smell a bottle new or not from the late 80 early 90s.
