Wondering why not all the notes in the description are entered
in the section fragrance notes?
I was in the store almost all day just testing different perfumes to see which one to get for myself, so I decided on this one. I fell in love with it because it was exquisite, feminine, dainty, floral,with plum and orange and wood notes that settled into a powdery floral scent.
So sad that it got discontinued. I see this as a cross between La Dolce Vita and Rogue.

I was drawn to the name Io, so went for blind buy here. Io was, in Greek mythology, a priestess of Hera in Argos, a mortal who was seduced by Zeus, who changed her into a heifer to escape detection from his jealous wife, Hera.
Agree with girls though, who noticed, that Io smells “untidy” or “messy” – its very similar by sharp juicy-grassy and dissonant accord with three other my fragrances – Neblina of Yves Rocher, Balmya by Balmain and Romeo di Romeo Gigli Romeo Gigli. They are hard job to figure out, not easy to wear from the start. Yet they are unique. They are very tender, almost penetratively so.
Would suit to interesting personality as a signature scent.
P.S. I think note pyramid is shown in a wrong way on this page.
The top notes are pineapple, peach, plum and spicy accords of coriander. Rose, tuberose, ylang-ylang and heliotrope are in the heart. The base is warm, woody and spicy – it includes cedar, sandalwood, benzoin and cinnamon.

Rose and sandalwood, and a little lighter, fresher note – is it coriander? Extremely well balanced and delicate. A very feminine perfume and a charmer. I am still to test its longevity though.

Here we go, I found a lovely shop full of rarities, the private collection of scents from Australia and America and so on. At last I could see Tresor pure perfume, in the shape of a crystal. Sorry for off top)
io La Perla is a typical classical perfume for me: it’s got the very bitterness which indicates the contradictions of the woman’s nature, being weak and gentle, and strong and hard to die at the same time. Also, this fragrance is something about aristocratic, noble, princesslike. Maybe what made me think so is that this perfume is found in the store resembling a museum with carpets and mirrors. Anyway, io is very rich, playful, but fruity notes are quiet enough. I wish everyone gave a touch this and enjoy if it’s possible.

This was my signature scent for years until it was discontinued. Very feminine. Made me feel very confident.

The fragrance written review has got hardly anything in common with pictured notes below the main photo.
Well, what can I say. A naughty little gremlin must have been messing with Editors’ desks 🙂
Io is certainly unusual fragrance as what I detect are fruity citrus-bitter notes in top (very refreshing), the heart feels creamy floral and the base is a sophisticated woody-spicy one. (Really woody!!!)
I get hardly any vanilla throughout.
Io has certainly rocked my heart, it is such a lovely juice, sparkling at the top and ‘maturing’ as it dries down.
It has great silage and lasting power – the reasons La Perla should get them more on the market!
Io is hard to find nowadays, such a shame that the only thing La Perla is bothered about is to promote their very first fragrance with only a handful of others.
Io, along with Eclix, deserve much more attention.
Both are top quality with outstanding longetivity.

Mmmm this smells so good..i ordered me a mini bottle and I have no regrets! it is a beautiful, warm floral to me.

A strong mix of so many notes, almost untidy but not bad. It depends on your chemistry. On me wasn’t that great, but on my best friend smelled heavenly like a beautiful mix of flowers, especially osmanthus, with only a faint edge of fruit and a creamy woody drydown, only slightly vanillic. It’s sensual, a little misterious, strong but elegant.
It was her signature fragrance and now that we live far from each other I smell this scent to recall her and the time we spent together having fun when we were students (I wore Amarige then)
