Description
Each fragrance in the Dame Perfumery Scottsdale eau de toilette collection consists of three elements neatly balanced for simple, clean and pure beauty: a bright top note, a pretty floral heart and a warm sensual dry down, all matched together and blended to perfection.
Passion Fruit, Orange Blossom & Vetiver by Dame Perfumery Scottsdale is a Floral Woody Musk fragrance for women. This is a new fragrance. Passion Fruit, Orange Blossom & Vetiver was launched in 2014. Top notes are passionfruit, grapefruit, tagetes and orange; middle notes are orange blossom, hedione and ambrette (musk mallow); base notes are vetiver, musk and cedar.
Captivating and classy Passion Fruit, Orange Blossom & Vetiver is available as a 100 ml eau de toilette.
The nose behind this fragrance is Jeffrey Dame.

I love orange blossom and am a big fan of Dame Perfumery so it was a no-brainer for me to try this. The orange blossom is wonderfully fresh as I expected. The passion fruit and grapefruit give this a slightly tropical feel but the earthy, woodsy vetiver keeps it from being too sweet. Bright and uplifting. Well done!

This is an extremely short-lived perfume and the sillage is very weak. I put on a few swipes from a 1ml dabber vial and I can barely smell it wafting; to smell it well at all, I must put my wrist to my nose, and even then, I miss all the nuances that surely must be hiding. Also, I ended up using about ¾ of the whole vial and still can barely smell it.
This is one of the few orange blossom perfumes I’ve smelled that isn’t nausea-inducing, and this is probably by virtue of the weakness of this perfume as a whole.
The scent is actually quite nice, but just not strong enough.
What I do smell is a clean, floral, musky base―the same as is in Verbena, Freesia and Musk, and Bergamot, Jasmine and Labdanum. As similar as they are, due to the common base and dominant musk, I think this one would be redundant in your collection if you had either of the others I mentioned above, especially since the others’ performance is great.

Dame Perfumery Passion Fruit, Orange Blossom, & Vetiver is, as expected, fruity due to the passion fruit and fresh due to the orange blossom.
Other supporting notes include grapefruit at the top and musk in the base, though admittedly this doesn’t smell all that complex overall. The passion fruit is fairly palpable at the opening as well before relatively quickly drying down into a more mellow fruity/woody/musky blend.
Quite agreeable and unisex, an easy summer reach.
This fragrance is fleeting, though, perhaps the most fleeting of any of Dame’s offerings that I’ve tried.
Still, the scent is quite nice so it’d surely serve many well as an ephemeral option.

It starts out as a mellow fruity floral. Then it gets slightly powdery, slightly syrupy. I always see tropical fruits as very vacation-esque, but the passion fruit in it is not a dominating note. It’s feminine. It’s understated, totally appropriate for the office.

Chalky orange sweet tarts! That’s not at all a bad thing, but it’s definitely the first thing I thought when I dabbed this on. It’s very fresh and light. Nothing much else to say about it…I love the simple bottles of this line a lot, but this scent isn’t special enough for me to want it in my wardrobe.

When I received the tester of this one I burned through 7 mls in about 1 week of wearings. I wear this so frequently it is almost a signature in the spring and summer. The freshness of this creation is like a sparkling day to me, it brings me a lot of joy and focus. It is perfect in the office, just clean and gorgeous. It is perfect anytime, actually. It lasts at least 20 hours on my skin, and I spray unsparingly. I was a big lover of D&G Light Blue before I discovered this one, draining several bottles. What I like about POV over LB is that it still has the same sunny feeling, but has the sweetness of the passion fruit and the spicyness of the vetiver without smelling harsh. Light Blue smelled harsh to me after several wearings of this one. I get tons of compliments when I wear this, and have had several friends steal my decants and order this for themselves. This is a perfect grab and go fragrance when you don’t want to think about what you want to wear, but want to smell like spring or summer. I love that when I fall asleep at night I can still smell this delicious fragrance enveloping my skin. Lucious, happy, uplifting and sunny. Sunshine in a bottle. DPS has become my favorite house for easy to purchase and easy to wear fragrances, with quality blends.

so i feel it goes on very synthetic and perfumey smelling. it reminds me of estee lauder beyond paradise actually, in the same vein but fruitier. as it wears it smells far better at a distance. the orange blossom and passionfruit is quite prominent in the beginning. Sadly this perfume gives me a headache. I’d love to smell the tagetes and hedione though.

This is a beautiful, striking scent that’s almost beachy, but not so carefree. The marigold notes are what make this special for me, because they gives this fragrance a depth that I don’t expect from passion fruit orange blossom, and or vetiver. It reminds me of Bal d’Afrique, Tommi Sooni Tarantella, and Safari. This is easy to wear if it’s “you”, but it’s not one of those scents that works for just about everybody (i.e. Tory Burch, Daisy).
