Description
The Italian fashion house Missoni, known for its vivid prints and patterns, launched its latest signature Missoni perfume under the Euroitalia license in 2015. Its new, sunny and fresh Eau de Toilette version is scheduled to come out before the 2016 summer, appropriate for the upcoming warm days.
Missoni Eau de Toilette is a citrusy – floral – woody fragrance. The tart top notes include blood orange and pink pepper, along with juicy Nashi pear and water flowers. A transparent bouquet of freesia, peony, Givaudan molecule Rosyfolia, rose water and heliotrope is located in the core of the perfume, after which the composition ends with warm tones of musk, white cedar and a Georgywood accord. The perfumer is Quentin Bisch, who was also behind the Eau de Parfum version.
The face of the perfume is model Elisa Sednaoui. The bottle features a new combination of colors, sunny and summery, dominated by orange, fuchsia and yellow. The fragrance is available as a 30, 50 and 100 ml Eau de Toilette, along with body lotion, shower gel and deodorant.

On my skin this is a very sweet fragrance, but that’s all I can smell. I don’t smell any notes and it kind of reminded me of a piece of hard candy that is so sweet you can’t even taste the flavor. That’s how I felt after testing this. Maybe it will fair better on others. The bottle is a beauty though!

My sister bought it for herself when she was at Marshall’s. This past weekend, we had a get together and I noticed her fragrance but not in a good way. If you want to smell like deodorant then go ahead and purchase this. Yuck.

I really like this fragrance.
It is the closest I have found to Joop: Berlin that I loved (sadly discontinued)
Its so pretty and light but has longevity.
Unfortunately it is quite expensive at $130-140 a bottle for 100mls
I still liked it enough to spend that amount on it

On the one hand, this is not something I personally would buy. On the other, in the ‘innocuous’ genre, it’s actually quite nice. Not a dupe for, but to my mind not dissimilar in expression from Chanel Chance Eau Fraiche. Though I don’t know whether that says more about Missoni, or the current state of Chanel. I think perhaps I would sooner select the Missoni. While by no means realistic, this is one of the smoother ‘water lily’ attempts, so frequently harsh and grating, and unlike the real thing.

What a BEAUTIFUL concoction!!!!
The rose,freesia and peony to keep it clean.
The sweetness of the pear to even all that soapiness and cleanliness out.
The heliotrope to add some creaminess.
And the sexy pink pepper and cedar that gives it that unisex vibe at the middle/ very end.
A combo of a simple and sensual ´feminine aftershave.`

I just bought this perfume and really love it. It is very clean smell and you feel like you just had shower with a very expensive soap. Very good choice for work or very hot days.

In love with this fragrance!sooo fresh and clean and the best choice for summer!i’ve got a lot of compliments and many people ask me what perfume I am wearing

I recently brought this perfume, it’s a soft sweet uncomplicated sent feminine scent. It sits close to the skin with a 6 hour longevity time frame. When sprayed I initially smelt floral peppers (if that makes any sense). The dry down is a sweet, floral & slightly spicy. I like it….it’s an easy everyday wear.

Don’t, and I repeat, don’t, judge a perfume by its bottle.
The bottle? Gorgeous.
The juice? Scrubber.
I’d call it one note, but it’s more like one jumbled, confused, overly-fruity note. I didn’t know fruit could be so fruity, or that sweet could be so saccharine.
I didn’t get much of a dry down, didn’t experience any sort of development or evolution over time. Just sweet, sweet, sweet. Blech.

I haven’t expected anything major from this frag. But after first spray it reminded me of so long time ago my childhood love Aloha by Oriflame. So similar.
I’m not sure which Aloha exactly I owned but definitely they are so near to each other.
Sweet but specially sweet, tropical kind of with some tartness. Some fruit but more for the nose not for taste buds. Some aquatics gives freshness.
Overall specially nice and beautiful in it’s simplicity.

I haven’t had much luck with Missoni fragrances. I tested the now discontinued Missoni (2006) some years ago and didn’t enjoy the citrusy-chocolate vibe all too well on my skin. I had hoped that the newest re-release would be more my cup of tea, but I now see that they have made their scents really generic.
Whilst the bottle is very eye-catching, the scent itself is a unoriginal fruity floral concoction. It features a dominant note of peony followed by pink pepper, juicy pear and soapy freesia.
Missoni Eau de Toilette smells clean and fruity like a regular bottle of shampoo. Don’t get me wrong, Missoni EDT is perfectly wearable, but it just doesn’t have anything to make it signature worthy.
Missoni as a brand does have a somewhat summery vibe, so it’s no surprise that Missoni Eau de Toilette is best suited to warm weather wear. At its current price point, I don’t think Missoni Eau de Toilette is worth it, however if it were to make its way into the discount stores, (which I suspect it will), it may be worth adding to your collection if you’re seeking a peony-centric warm weather scent.

A fragrance so casual it actually becomes basic and boring. Smells cheap. If you’re looking for a luxurious, original smell, do NOT buy.
sochunsenuemn – :
A crystal clear version of a “modern day” mid-priced fragrance like Burberry.
Only better- cleaner- more distinct.
Not very daring but nice! Would make a safe blind buy OR gift for a friend who is a casual fragrance lover.

I had gotten a sample of this from a swap. I just sprayed it this morning. Omg! Clean floral. This is girlie and just beautiful. I don’t understand why so many don’t like this. Did they smell what I smell? My boyfriend walked in and said that it smells really good in here. I’ll be purchasing a full size bottle of this.
Wevaeasebra – :
I have the tiny vial sample of this and I can’t understand the hate for this, this is not so bad nor is it boring either! In fact I like it! The only way I can describe this scent is one word… CLEAN. Its a summer scent that captures the heat perfectly. I think its the waterlily that makes it so overly floral for some noses, over all i would give this a 3.8 out of a 5.
Tuzenbah – :
Apparently, my nose is very different from the others 🙂 I tested it on my wrist and it smells like… purity. Nothing more, nothing less. The smell of the freshly washed clothes, I’d say.
qqaazz – :
BAD perfume! i almost passed away when i smelled this looooool
it smells like perfumed water and thoug its not strong it gave me a headache because it was so darn disgusting!
biobio – :
Honestly, the bottle is all and the best thing. The juice does smell generic … What a pitty for such an expensive stuff. Or I have a very bad nose…
dofwka – :
Don’t understand the hate or not liking this that much .. I blindly bought the eau de toilette and the eau de parfum. Quite honestly I like both but this one is better. It’s fruity with a clean twist to it and it is very innofensive. I will be wearing this for a long time, as it is the best newer fragrance I have found in awhile
dchern66 – :
I haven’t heard about this brand before, so it seemed interesting. I’m afraid, I don’t like it very well, something about it is over the top, a little too much.
It’s woody, white floral, there’s very strong synthetic pear note and some tonka bean scent.
It’s like fruity floral that’s unbalanced.
Sweet and fruity, but unbalanced somehow, can’t describe it better.
ecstasy27reg – :
The bottle is the best thing about this perfume!
hhb007speagoessenda – :
This is so blah. No, really. I was passing it by in Bloomingdales and sprayed it on my hand.
Yes I get pink pepper as there is slight spicyness in initial notes but short time later it transforms itself in fairly bland floral with hint of fruit note(I guess that’s the pear). Woodsy floral drydown as described.
Nothing offensive, mind you. But this is total yawn city. This is how I felt about Modern Muse by EL.
I have no issues with fragrances that smell generic. I own a bunch myself. But this is so unmemorable that you won’t even remember what it smelled like the next day.
tosik01976 – :
Very generic smelling floral. Inoffensive? Yes. Special? No. And it does not resemble the EDP in any way. A casual fragrance….
Kryl91 – :
Nice floral fragrance with really good middle notes. Nothing special though. It’s like many other florals. It did not make my heart beat faster.
noobes – :
I almost bought it today, but now I´m glad I have waited until the drydown. I can´t detect particular note, maybe pepper. It attracted me in the first moment on the paper – there was something uncatchable, but nice. But in minute it was gone, on the skin the same experience. Now I may smell just mild musk(after 2hrs), it sits close to the skin. But comparing to the EDP this one is less teenage, better, however still not worth to buy. (If you don´t need the bottle as a decoration.)
Gradient131 – :
Aha! Ahahahahahahaha! Why? xD
s5519 – :
The EDP is pretty terrible did we really need an EDT of it?
At least the bottle looks great but I doubt the juice will match
