Halle Berry is launching a new fragrance named Reveal The Passion. Its floral-fruity composition announces new, seductive nuances waiting to be revealed. Touched with a veil of mystery, self-confident and elegant, created as the ultimate image of a strong image. The fragrance arrives on the wider market mid July 2011.
The fragrance is announced as a passionate concept composed of fruit and flowers. Created in cooperation with perfumer of the house of Givaudan – Olivier Gillotin, it offers sweet and passionate contrasts that make every woman more seductive and exciting.
Top notes incorporate Italian bergamot, freesia and apple, a heart adds a union of white champak and mangostine, while a base introduces okume wood, patchouli and musk.
Reveal The Passion is available in a pale violet flacon shaped in art deco style, just like fragrance Reveal, presented last year. Flacon hide fragrant liquid in the amount of 15 and 30 ml, accompanied by perfumed deodorant 75 ml.
Advertising campaign features Halle Berry in an elegant pink silk dress. A ring on her hand is shaped just like stopper of the flacon and colored in fuchsia color. Photos taken by Cliff Watts.

I have an attraction to the smell. Something about it is comforting, but not too musky. I love the scent! To me, it’s very appealing.

I blind bought this yesterday, expecting a sweet fragrance… To me this is a sharp, clean perfume. I used Whisper by Coty for many years & this reminds me of that. It’s a nice fragrance and I got it for a steal, so I’m quite happy 🙂

I like this scent, though it seems quite heavy from time to time. It is strong, I can feel it on myself after 4-5 hours, even though I see people commenting that it’s not really heavy. Maybe it’s because it’s a sweet scent, but after a while I get kind of sick of it. It’s generally pretty nice but I don’t like wearing it during the day, it’s not exactly subtle.
Also, I was quite disappointed with the bottle! I know that celebrity endorsed perfumes are cheaper, but it looked so classy and it was so disappointing to feel just how cheap material they used on the lid.

I love this perfume. It goes great with my skin. It would have been my signature if it lasted longer than an hour 🙁 . I hate that.

I’m really beginning to think that I can’t wear anything with an aquatic note. This perfume sounded so nice. And from reading here, I do believe it must smell great on others. On me, though, it is very strange. Almost like popcorn with a bad coconut undertone combined with that plastic note in hair pommade. I want to smell it on someone with the right chemistry to see how this is supposed to smell.

Lovely fresh fruity floral but sillage & longevity were poor. Stayed close to skin and gone within a hour.. I’m so diappointed as I really love the scent.
My 1oz edp bottle is clear with a pale pink top, same shape as shown. I like the shape but its not as pretty as the lavendar one shown.
The set came with a shower gel instead of a lotion. would have preferred a lotion to see if it would help the scent last longer. The shower gel has a faint fruity scent, too weak and although it is similiar but not the same as the perfume.
Very poor quality compared to how good Halle and Pure Orchid are.. I didnt like the original Reveal.

Absolutely gorgeous scent! I bought the 30 ml for $5.99 at Cititrends and didn’t expect much, but I really like it! Too bad it doesn’t last very long, only 2-3 hours.

Just got it and I really love it!But…it doesn’t stay on too long, only about 1-2 hours and thats it 🙁

Very sweet tropical fruit in the opening, very much like litchee. The tropical feel stays all the way through — I never get as much of the florals as I do the tropical fruit. Reminds me of a tropical cocktail on the beach. Good for summer casual wear.

To me, this smells like a sweeter, fruiter version of Jennifer Lopez Deseo, which is one of my favorites. The sweet fruitiness is gone in a flash, though, after which time I definitely get the cedar and patchouli, but thank heaven it’s not hamster-cage like. I haven’t smelled any of Halle Berry’s other fragrances, so I can’t compare it to those. On my skin, it’s fresh, tropical, and woodsy. I got this in a swap (15 ml bottle), and I will say that I probably wouldn’t have bought it. Still, I’m happy to have it and will almost certainly use up the little bottle! I doubt I’d repurchase, unless my husband says he likes it (unlikely! he hates perfume.).

I totally agree with goingblonde. The dirty/musty note ruins it for me.
It’s fruity but “some horrible dirty smelling note appears” as goingblonde said.
She was thinking it was the Champaca or is it the mangosteen? I’d like to know what note is bothering me so i can avoid whatever it is in other perfumes!
Unless its the coconut that others mention even though it is not listed as a note. For me, coconut is ok unless its more of a “toasted” coconut. Maybe this is what I am smelling as musty.
I really like the original Reveal and may become my go-to summer scent.

I totally agree with Celebrity89 that Reveal The Passion has that Euphoria/Jimmy Choo kinda thing going on! This was a blind buy, 7 bucks; had to try it! I really like it and for me on my skin it’s a really nice fall/winter fragrance that’s affordable and smells great!
coxMosork – :
Reminds me of the old Yves Rocher classic Ode a lamour.
As for newer frags, it’s also a softer blend of Euphoria mixed with Jimmy Choo.
I just wish it had the staying power of Pure Orchid.
Update: This is an unusual fragrance, very milky, creamy.
New Update: This is a dupe of Harajuku Lovers Music. BCBG Bon Genre is very similar too.

Just adding to my original review that I absolutely love this now-didn’t even notice it had mangosteen which is a favorite note of mine:)
kolomivan – :
I bought this on a whim at Walmart (marked down) because I’m in love with the color purple. When I sprayed it, I got the immediate citrus, and a yeasty undertone. Staying power is all right (2-3 hours) and it mingles on my skin so the cirtus stays on top with mellow woody notes. Not my favorite, but better than Reveal.

This is a very nice coconutty floral scent on me.The only thing that keeps it from being a ‘love’ for me is that with this scent(and the original Reveal)is that sometimes the wood notes in the drydown can come across as cedar which can read ‘hamster cage’.It doesn’t always do this so it might be just me-probably is because I have weird chemistry.This one is lovely…90% of the time:)
Ok after 3 days of wear this is a LOVE for sure:I guess I was going through a weird spell because I adore this now.Meant to add:great lasting power which is always a plus….sprayed it on before bed and am still smelling it a bit.I just realized that this smells very similar to Hilary Duff Wrapped with Love but lighter.

It’s so fruity. I can smell it all day. My bf thinks that it’s the best perfume I’ve ever had. Though it’s not passionate at all (“Reveal The Passion”), I absolutely love it.

Thisw was even hard for me to find on the puter.Finally aq smalltown WALGREENS yeildeed me one.I LOVE IT!>Those of you who remember me will know it takes a heck of a fume to bring me out of hybernating to w3rite yet another review.
This is an almost creamy,seductive scent.Florals and exotic fruits on aq far away tropical isle4.I think it IS note worthy fume.THe sweetly serious,you may call it.My husbande even said so,,,,,In fact his words were,Go shower that off or Ill have to devour you.Needless to say,,,I put on more!!
NityBiort53 – :
This one is MUCH better than Reveal. Lots of woody notes with sweet fruits & flowers. This is not a ground breaking perfume by any means. It is pretty much a perfume that I have smelled variations of time and time again. Nice but not something I would run out and buy.
akim2307 – :
I smell liquor & peony flowers

When at Target I always test a new fragrance. Today’s try was Halle Berrys Reveal the Passion. My first impression was a sultry soft patchouli and fruit….my husband was Revealed…and said that it smelled good. As we were walking to the checkout area, him walking behind said yes!that is the one, you smell so sexy! With that I turned back and picked the last bottle off the shelf! This was 4 hours ago and the fragrance is still soft & sultry close to the skin woody/fruity patchouli, and not an offensive layer of regret.
-=RapiRa=- – :
I like this because it reminds me of the scent of my honey moon hotel suite, I get the apple the softness of some sweet nectar from a soft flower and the musk… BUT as this scent dries down I get scented toilet paper smell, complete scented toilet paper! To a T! Is that a good thing or a bad thing? I don’t know you guys decide these are just my personal thoughts it is a pleasant scent but I would not purchase this 🙂
Donobevabog – :
I love this one just as much as the first! I love all halle fragrances.
Reeklyswexy – :
Smelled this yesterday at Sears and it smells verry similar to Beyonce’s Heat but this is missing the peach and it’s a lot softer. Smells kinda like they’ve added a dash of coconut or something. I’ll give a full review when I spray it on my skin because I’m sure I will purchase it.
On another note, I was PISSEDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD to walk into Sears and see Rihanna’s REBELLE there in a 1.0 bottle!!!!! I was hoping it wouldn’t go into the masses stores until next year or at least December!!!!
Rawsglisamess – :
Just sprayed it today, at Rite Aide in the Crenshaw district, about an hour ago, still smells great on me. It smells like a night time scent. For the most part it is better than Reveal, “more passionate” or loud at first for the faint, Reveal is a lady. Now that it is drying down the flowers and fruits are appearing. Will buy a small bottle to add to my collection. Has the undertones I would say of Reb’l Fleur which I love .
Strelok1988 – :
Reveal The Passion is fruity and inoffensive. It is much better than the original but is not a scent I’d purchase.
mhw146speagoessenda – :
Smelled more fruity, sweet and agreeable than the original Reveal which is an absolutely disturbing one. Doesn’t smell passionate at all (quite average) but if I should choose from the Reveal series, I would definitely pick this one.
