Description
Elegance has always been a defining element of Salvatore Ferragamo creations. Full of grace and refinement, they are further
enhanced by the impeccable taste for which the Florentine brand is famous worldwide.
In tribute to this sophistication, Salvatore Ferragamo presents Signorina Eleganza, a luxurious fragrance that celebrates feminine
grace and seduction.
The fresh head notes of grapefruit and pear are a vivacious and
stimulating introduction.
Almond powder and golden osmanthus petals create a delicate yet
intense heart, adding a touch of indulgent luxury.
The base notes of patchouli and white leather create a dry-down
effect that leaves a luscious, lingering scent on the skin.
The packaging of Signorina Eleganza in a nude beige palette
conveys a delicate and refined charm. The Eleganza logo in
embossed gold adds an extra touch of excellence.
The precious golden base engraved with the logo in relief gives
the bottle a magnificent appearance while the famous gros grain
Vara bow comes in two shades of beige.
Salvatore Ferragamo celebrates chic young women creating a unique style signature of timeless modernity, creativity and a hint of audacity.
A girl playing with her different characters: sophisticated and cheeky, like Signorina Eau de Parfum, elegant and seductive like Signorina Eleganza and unpredictably mysterious like
Signorina Misteriosa …because Signorina is a different Signorina every day.
“My life is a play” is her credo: Grace Hartzel perfectly embodies the three personalities of Signorina deciding when and how to let the play start, but always remaining the same person.

I was drawn to this because of the pear and almond notes and I loved the way it smelled on opening, but as it dried down and the more time that passed, it evolved soap. I’m not giving soap a bad connotation, it’s a pleasant soap. It’s soft, still pear-y, clean, feminine and comforting. I was iffy at first, but the more i smelled it, the more I fell in love with it. It’s a day fragrance for me, not especially a “sexy” scent, but a scent that would work great in an office, lunch, visiting etc. I have the urge to wear a soft, ivory coloured sweater, and flip through books at a library. Very pleased.
BowNawClalk – :
I love this! A gift from my husband and he got taste. Yes I agree it’s very similar with Coco Chanel Mademoiselle.
Elegant and unique to me.
One of my favourite!
gaechka30 – :
I’m finally getting to try this beauty. Wow. It’s really elegant (the name is perfect), and classy. It has a sparkle from the pear and citrus, but it’s the leather that really stands out to me (naturally).
It’s very tempting to put this on my want list when there are so many that have been there for some time, and quite honestly, I probably don’t need this. But I want it. So I’ll be keeping my eyes open for a good price!
CrazyCramar – :
The BEST perfume i smelled this year ! Similar to Coco Mademoiselle edt ( yess i agree with a lot of people in here ) but softer, creamier and more easy to wear. If you like coco Mad but finds it a little bit to strong or harsh sometimes, you can’t go wrong with this one, for me, it is a perfect balance. Well done Ferragamo. A true work of art !
qmtswhpx – :
I usually hesitate when it comes to pear and osmanthus notes in the same perfume. I blind bought Eleganza (because I came across one with an irresistible sale price) and I’m glad that I did.
It is truly “Elegant”. Pear and osmanthus add a gentle sweetness to the composition. They appear just enough to sweeten the freshness of grapefruit. Those notes play so well with each other and are not cloying or artificial or headache inducing as I have experienced in many sweet perfumes. The dry down is actually the step that defines Eleganza, a slightly smokey leather note and nutty almond. Patchouli almost does not exist here to my nose.
I own all 4 of Signorina fragrances and I enjoy them ALL, if not love. I can’t quite say which one is my favorite, as they are all slightly different from each other and still sustain the DNA code of the line.
SF Signorina fragrances in general are VERY refreshing, interesting and “scent control” (they individually contribute equal value to the line, even though they may carry slight differences in scents. Not a single one is more or less interesting than the others). Each one of them is well done and I’m very pleased with all their scents. I wear them all, depends on my mood. I can only separate them from different prospectives. Eleganza offers more MODERN dry down (from leather and almond). Signorina EDP brings in more classy FLORAL ROSE scents. Signorina EDT shines with more FRUITY GOURMAND effect (litchi and mouse cream) and Misteriosa surprises me with its CREAMY FRESHNESS thru the transformation and intertwining between berry, patchouli, mouse and vanilla.
I don’t mind the moderate or weak longevity in any fragrance, as long as its scent smells GREAT. A good 3-4 hour run with moderate sillage are enough for this family of 4 to win me over 🙂
melvigen – :
This is the most sophisticated out of the Signorinas, reaching towards the Emozione line. It’s very nice, the patchouli is done really well and the leather adds a nice smooth maturity to it. It is not very fruity on me, it’s more of a dry sparkling pear cider note than a juicy ripe pear note.
Sadly, this one has by far the shortest longevity out of all the SF fragrances I own (this one, original Signorina, Misteriosa, Emozione, E dolce Fiore). Pretty, and I would definitely find times to wear it except it turns into a skin scent on me within 30min. Really a bummer!
I enjoy the concept of the different Signorinas conveying the different facets of a woman and I like them all for different reasons. Just wish this one lasted as long as the other 2 on me!
Figilepheme – :
First I did not think I would find my new singature scent in this perfume. I checked the notes and thought it might be too simple, but I gave it a chance because I love the smell of pear. And I am so glad I did. This scent is just soo delicious, so unique, distinctive, sweet in a fruity way (just the way I like it) but with a leathery twist, that makes it a grown up scent for signorinas over 30.
Some people say it reminds them of Coco Mad, but I have to object, I have been using Coco Mad since 2011, and it is not similar at all. I just love this perfume, my only wish is it were longer lasting. It seems nothing can beat Coco Mad in longetivity. I would re-buy this perfume any time.
glt249InsuffBooni – :
It really reminds Coco Mademoiselle edt, only less interesting.
Alex1ndr – :
Where do I even begin with this one.
My cousin is the kind of lady that always sprays herself in perfume before entering a room and she always smells good. I always ask her for the names but she is one of those people who don’t like to say what they are wearing. Luckily one of those days she forgot her perfume in the bathroom and I got my chance. She was wearing Eleganza. Ofcourse she has different perfume for each day but Atleast I knew what kind of perfumes she likes. My cousin is a independent lady, attractive, and a doctor. This perfume compliments her so well and it gives off an impression that you are a strong independent women who can take care of yourself and is successful in life. That’s obviously not me, lol. But I love wearing it to work sometimes just to give me that confidence.
Zikonchik – :
At first spritz…I thought…”meh” …another “typical” type scent. I get the Coco Mad vibe…and maybe even leaning towards some of the Narciso scents/flankers vibe. And a touch of Valentino Donna too.
The drydown…That’s when I feel the fragrance becomes more worthy !! Patience and letting it develope is required for this one…IMO. Projection/sillage are rather moderate. All in all, a good scent…remarkable??…No. Likeable/safe…oh,yes.
7/10
EDIT: Upon second test….the drydown developed even more on my skin. And I am getting a LEATHER powdery-ish vibe….This may go from a “like” to a “love” !!! This somehow reminds me of something Guerlain would create…….hmmmmm……yeah !!!

Today, I picked up a rollerball of this fragrance for $7.99 at Marshall’s. On myself, I mostly smell citrus,some floral,and a very small amount of suede. Signorina Eleganza is a sophisticated and clean perfume. Do I love it? No, but it’s wearable.
vxm957JeomiWogkig – :
I can’t believe some sort of pepper is not listed as a note. The opening is a lot like Si Lolita…though this has patchouli. I got a rollerball for cheap and after reading reviews of the Signorina line I’m sure I picked the right one. I like both Miss Dior and Coco Mademoiselle but this is just a tad more spicy/ dirty. I usually like mellow florals or light airy citrus though so what I consider” dirty” others might consider mild.
Big_black_Dog12 – :
Hi, I am a woman… not a little girl trying to smell like a cupcake!! LOL.. A little kidding aside, I definitely like this one… This to me, while this is nothing earth-shattering different, it is still very nice. Not overpowering, but will still be detected by the person next to you, or while you walk past someone, they will get a soft faint smell about this. Not overpowering. Quite soft, and classy smelling. More of a classic-type smelling perfume.
I do see the similarities that some mention to Miss Dior and Coco Mlle. If you like those, you likely will like this. A safe, year-round scent that can be worn day to night. Happy to have this one and as a woman in my mid-40s, I see me enjoying this a good deal and getting a lot of wear with this one. Very nice, if nothing earth-shattering different.
Notes are blended so nothing screams out over another note. Might be a nice little intro into leather notes for those wanting to dip their toes into the world of leather notes; the leather note is extremely light here. The pear balances out the patchouli, so this is not patchouli-heavy, but obviously, you can still pick up the patchouli. Well blended. Sophisticated smelling.
nikita – :
I have a small amount of this perfume. I immediately noticed the similarity to Chanel Mademoiselle. Pear and patchouli together give a gentle aura, not sweetened – ufff, thanks God.
There is also a light citrus / grapefruit note, but it does not come in 1 plan. Durability of about 5 hours, which gives you a wish. If the durability was 8 hours then i would love it.
cps159speagoessenda – :
I like this scent so much. It’s very soft, elegant and feminine. I love the light leather and the subtile patchouli. These notes create a wonderful base for the fruits, nuts and clean florals. It makes me so sad to say I have multiple complaints. The longlivity and sillage are very poor when I wear this perfume on my skin. It disappears completely within one hour. The bottle wears down very fast and it looks cheap compared to other perfume bottles in this price range. The gold colored plating comes off easily. These aspects are such a pity! The scent itself is wonderful.
dj mollan – :
Ugh. I seem to be about the only one, but i can’t stand this. It’s mostly patchouli on me, not the chocolaty or earthy kind, but a sharp and biting variant. Very synthetic. It makes my throat itch like smoking while having a cold would.
There are some fruity/citrus notes, but it doesn’t smell like pear to me. Leather is also barely there. Almond? No way. The plastic patchouli overpowers everything.
There was a hint of the powdery creamy sweetness of the original Signorina in the background for a minute, but that was also gone quickly.
I had to scrub it off.
In general I have nothing against fruitchoulis, I like all the notes here and I think Signorina EDP is great, so I’m surprised I hate Eleganza. It didn’t smell so bad on paper, it might be a skin thing.
I get where the comparison to Coco Mademoiselle is coming from, Signorina Eleganza has a similar style, but a different quality. On me it smells like the vile 5 € gift shop version of CM and similar scents.
Honestly I feel a little bad for writing this as it seems to be an either good or at least inoffensive scent for anyone else, but I guess someone has to be the hater…
Ascent – :
It smells nice, pretty similar to coco mademoiselle or miss dior cherie. It is a nice fragrance for summer but unfortunately it does not last on
the skin… 3 hours on mine.
Malimen – :
I’ve been searching and searching for something that would be different from the barrage of florals out there, as well as all the “fresh and clean and crisp” clones that I am so sick of. I took a whiff of this, and at first, I thought: ho-hum… But then I got the leather note and the patchouli, and it evoked some sort of emotion in me, like nostalgia, and made me want to smell and inhale the scent again and again. I look for a signature scent that will excite me, and not just a pretty fragrance someone put together to sell. If it makes me excited and want to smell it again, it wins!
levimar – :
This perfume somehow smelled awesome in Macy’s when it was first purchased. I don’t know how long it sat inside my perfume drawer, but yuck. It began giving me such a headache, not sure what was in it that made me start feeling nauseous but something about it after while just never sat right with me. Yuck, that’s the only way I remember it and can even describe it. Gross. Doesn’t remind me of Hermes Sur de Nil at all!! I loved Sur de Nil, never made me feel sick to my stomach, but for some reason this Signorina Eleganza STARTS off elegant, and then….uber fail. I hated it.
NugUndund – :
Perfume: Salvatore Ferragamo, Signorina Eleganza
Overall Impression: I wore this all week so I could get used to the scent and how it develops. I like the scent but for most of the time it is a bit too sweet for me. I will wear it I would just like it better if the leather or patchouli were more pronounced. I think that the longevity is just ok since on me it only lasts 3-4 hours.
First Impression: I really like the first scent since it smells to me like a fine perfume I would guess the leather.
After 15 minutes: Has settled in and the sweetness is coming out
One Hour in: I again smell the leather but now it is tempered with the sweetness of the almond and floral scents. Very nice scent.
Throughout the Day: This is where I have a problem with this perfume. I only smell it for 3-4 hours and then I don’t smell it anymore. I am not sure if it is just me because 3 hours in I had someone ask me the name of my perfume for his wife. I do like to smell my perfume though. All in all I like it.
Cost and Availability: I know that Major dept. stores carry this for around $100, I have seen it online for less. I picked it up at Marshall’s after Christmas when there were many perfumes on clearance, this was one and I got it for 1.7oz $20.00.
enclav – :
Disappointed… this one stay on my skin 20 – 30 min. The smell is nice, but the longevity is very low.
gringohay – :
Really lovely scent I was obsessed with for long. However I could never wear it as an every day perfume as after a few days I always got bored with it so much I almost gave it away. It is simple and cute, inoffensive, suitable for office for sure, a kind of scent that most people like but not too many loves.
-=CHIP=- – :
A year rounder lovely scent for office or formal occasion.it is the more ‘adult ‘and elegant of the Signorina line.
I smell mainly osmanthus and patchouly and then leather.
Many are talking about this being a ‘dupe ‘ of chanel mad., to me it smell like the daugher of CM and Gucci Flora EDP.
anisteGlittee – :
I bought this based on reviews saying it’s similar to Chanel mademoiselle and no def not the case. I have Chanel mademoselle and this smells nothing like it disappointingly. I really wish this was a dupe. This one hurts my nose I think it’s a little harsh and too musky. On the plus side it’s really long lasting. People around you will def notice it and the smell lingers but I’m not a fan of it. I actually want to swap this one with anyone who does like it. I have the 3.4 full perfume with box if anyone interested pm me please
Boarmerie – :
This smells like a pretty 25 year old girl who has her life together. That’s not me but I wear it to work when I want to give off the illusion that I’m polished and confident. It’s also unabashedly and stereotypically girly smelling, something that’s attractive to me some days and disenchanting on others. I do love that it manages to avoid being either “sexy” or “innocent,” which are two traps that I want to avoid with an office fragrance.
No one will think you smell cheap…but you’ll probably remind them of someone else. I’m echoing the sentiments that this smells pretty similar to Miss Dior and Coco Mademoiselle.
serg6260 – :
I got a 50 mL of Signorina Eleganza on clearance at the Maxx for a mere $15. It’s like Vince Camuto Eau Fraiche! So, I love it, because I love Vince Camuto. This is lighter and less sweet. The leather and patch are there, but are tempered nicely by the citrus note. SE, then, is better for warm weather, and equally as versatile, if not quite as long-lasting. Elegant, indeed! This scent says “good taste” and smells more complex than the note pyramid led me to believe… It’s more than the sum of its parts, so to speak. Very, very much worth the purchase at that price point. Also, the lovely bottle is a nice bonus; Ferragamo’s packaging is great. If you like these notes, don’t pass it up.
mandrila – :
Soft floral, with fruity and powdery notes, pleasant, office friendly, but nothing outstanding.
igrinasensornom – :
I’m pretty sure Signorina Eleganza kicked off my perfume obsession! It took me outside my olfactory comfort zone with patchouli. I blind bought this on a whim and after a few wearings was captivated by this beauty!
This is an elegant, sophisticated fragrance. It feels very polished somehow. Gorgeous! For some reason I feel weird wearing this in pjs- haha. It is sweet, a bit fruity with the pear, some glossy leather, and patchouli adding depth to the sweet notes.
I get a mental image of black patent high heels with this fragrance.
And the osmanthus is one delicious, sweet note; absolutely divine here!
Makarchik_44 – :
Osmanthus and patchouli, then a leather note but the fruity note is present at first spray and then it’s gone and the scent is sharper – chypre floral is right! Does resemble Chanel Mademoiselle. I am not sure if I will be keeping this. Nice but sharp and I have Chanel CM already… Doesn’t last very long but it is a nice clean scent.
sashock_m5 – :
i had try all the Signorina flankers, this one is really special among of them. really fresh and bright lemon in the opening and at the same time sweet and juicy pear. in the heart notes are osmanthus and almond. they are very sensual and sweet. in dry down i can smell patchouli and light leather. overall, this is sweet fruity, light flowery and creamy leather.
антивирус – :
Grabbed this at Marshalls for 20.00 for a 1oz
Very pleasant scent indeed! This is the classy elegant older sister of girly pink Signorina, it smells like The Pink sigorina with a touch of powder and light leather, like a woman all dolled up wearing sweet fragrance while sporting leathery heels and carrying a leather purse
LYV_63 – :
This is a very nice fragrance. I like leather so I tried it. Very light in the leather, but I do get a pear that is not at all sweet to me. So far I am not getting the patchouli either. Very elegant as the name suggests. This is a new favorite for sure. I am glad I did this blind buy.
alexqwer – :
Picked up this beauty for my graduation perfume! I bought it for $20 at TJ Maxx for a 30 ml! I really love the packaging and bottle design, it’s very “elegant” like the name suggests. The scent itself is very soft and floral, it’s balanced beautifully and blended into a soft, subtle sophisticated scent. It reminds me a bit of Coco Mademoiselle, Miss Dior, and a fresher Jimmy Choo. The grapefruit and pear accord is fresh and uplifting! I love the heart the most, the beautiful osmanthus and almond powder stand out the most to me. The heart is fleeting, it fades into a smooth and luxurious CLEAN patchouli and leather. Need I say more? My only issue with this fragrance is the lasting power and sillage. On my skin, it lasts for about 3 hours before fading completely, with little to no sillage. I love this scent, in fact, I adore how it smells in the bottle and on clothing, but my skin must really eat fragrance because many scents just disappear on me. Alas! But I really enjoy this scent while it lasts! I’m loving it for every day and special occasions, or for just chilling at home. I still highly recommend it but test it out on your skin first if longevity is an issue for you!!
PS: I might have to try spraying it in my hair or behind my knees sometime.. hmm…
Update: I really love smelling this scent, it makes me feel angelic and graceful, and strangely calm. It’s gorgeous, it’s just a shame the lasting power is below average for an EDP. :/
Scent: 8.5/10
Longevity: 2-3 hours on skin
Sillage: Soft
Tiesittitlept – :
Gorgeous, Glamorous, & Sophisticated! It’s sweet & light with a fluttering butterfly flare…This is love!
SwomiaSwill – :
Like for Soutty123 when I first tried this I did not think much of it, then I got couple of samples so I wore it a couple of times and got complimented each time.So I started to actually appreciate the scent so much that I got myself a 50ml and the body lotion.
The lotion smells divine sweet and fruity and paired with the fragrance it’s really gorgeous.I think Eleganza is the best one out of all the Signorina line
Sergey(PS) – :
This smelled elegant and glamorous like its cute bottle…I am saving it for special occasions with ball gowns
k104 – :
I wasn’t wowed by this at first, but the number of compliments I received on it when I wore it made me reconsider. Now I think it’s very chic and it’s one of my daytime favourites.
wodan – :
When I first got this perfume, I didn’t really love it. I just liked it.
But later, I fell in love with it.
There is something elegant and cool about it. It’s long lasting and dries down very elegantly on my skin.
I recommend highly recommend it.
Trifiassanorp – :
Wow) My Signorina Eleganza doesn’t smell fruity at all! It smells light bitter and piquant, I can describe this scent like “thin and razor”. It’s not the scent, it is a hint of the scent. I can’t feel it when I am wearing it. I am always looking for a beautiful “leather”, but Signorina is not a leather, it is more suede. Bitter pear and almond powder for the dessert, please! Very aristocratic, sophisticated. I am imagining a lady in an evening gown, standing in the middle of the dark night garden. The breeze plays with the long silky skirt. She is sad, but she is not allowed to cry, she is a Signorina!..
lepkina84 – :
I would say it smells peppery and leathery, a little like pencil shavings and old lady perfume. A dry floral. I was expecting a fruity almond romantic thing. I get a bit of coco Mademoiselle but cheaper. Still classy, for some, and matches it’s gold packaging well, but it’s not for me.
funjke – :
I take this christmas holiday to visit all regular Signorina. I love this one the most so far.
At first spray it does remind me of Untold. It must be because of pear and citrus top note. the parfum quickly because warm and comforting: almond. With the fruity note, this is a bright and fresh almond. Not a ‘blunt’ and heavy almond’.
I like the parfume so far but the best has yet to come. the drydown is spicy with a fruity taste. Spicy a bit sweet a bit sour. i love this!
i prefer stronger distinctive perfume and i think this is the strongest and most distinctive in Signorina line so far. I feel SF products ‘pretty’ perfume but this one is more than pretty. This one has character.
It smells even better in clothes and lasts very long.
77599068145 – :
I really wanted to like this one. Lots of fresh pear, but then a ton of patchouli and not much else! I was so hoping to find a nice leather note but it never materialized.
NipoccapCat – :
It is hit-and-miss for me. When you first spray it on, it is sweet with a bit of patchouli, a bit of a spice and a bit of a freshness. Very nice, not as strong (patchouli-wise) as, say, Miss Dior, but still enough to be interesting. However, after it dries down a little bit, all quirkiness disappears and the smell turns into a generic sweet-and-powdery one.
heihoqtx – :
This perfume has some strange hold on me. It’s almost an opposites attract thing.
It is elegant, refined and classy…which I am not. I like my rock and roll, grunge, craft beers, wearing sequins, leather and black. I picture a gal in the color blush, wearing a tutu and pearls, while sipping a mimosa wearing this.
It starts out as a soft and sweet spiced pear on me, then the almond and leather say hello and stay. It’s not a blow my mind type of scent but there’s something that kept making me think about it and drawing me in.
It seems to last quite some time on my skin (6+). I seem to be having an issue with lastability with all perfumes as of recently where I never used to.
The bottle is gorgeous (it may have persuaded me a bit more to buy it) and this is one that would look beautiful displayed.
sergio1 – :
Ummm…boring.
Just a airport duty free shop smell.
gjkboer-1 – :
I blind bought this since every frag I’ve ever bought with patchouli in it garners compliments. People always respond to the way it radiates from me.
On spraying it, I’m kind of surprised how thin it is. It’s very very generic. It’s just kind of airy and sweet.
I’m totally reminded of the Gucci one with the pear / patchouli. Forget the name. Brown bottle? There’s also some D&G “The One” memories coming up, even if the notes aren’t the same. Point being it’s just very simple, cloudy, sweet, like tulle not velvet, a little earthy like linen not smooth like silk.
The base note close to the skin reminds me of a dry wood chip. It feels like I’ve stepped into a room with sawdust everywhere. Not getting leather or almond. There’s a hit of something slightly bitter, but I don’t get grapefruit at all.
Where’s the patchouli? Someone get her, quick. She’s to go on stage in 3 minutes and she’s about to miss her curtain call.
Not exceptional, to be sure. Just fine for a daily kind of thing, certainly.
Edit: It’s evening and patchouli came running fast and furious the rest of the day. This is a weird frag. It’s binary. Sweet and innocent to dirty hippie patchouli in 7 hours.
quartz7 – :
It reminds me a little bit of Miss Dior edt and Coco Mademoiselle edt, but this is sweeter and lighter. Here the patchouli stays in background while the fruits and flowers play the main role. The pear is juicy and so elegant. Very well blended and it has its own personality thanks to the leather and almond notes! I love this and my boyfriend too! Perfect for a spring or summer signature scent! It is long lasting and moderate sillage, you can wear this everyday, everywhere, even in the office!
jlquawfwpfg – :
My husband bought this for me as a surprise valentines gift. I absolutely love it and the bottle is stunning. I always get comments from strangers when I wear it. I didn’t think the longevity was there but they say a good perfume you can’t smell on yourself.
I’m a fan of strong stand out perfumes and I think this one has it. It’s different but lovely. My 7 year old son sprays his blanky as it smells like mum!
uls083bedyWelty – :
I like the elegance of this parfum but the longevity is very poor. Therefore I can use it in the office.
VeronikaS – :
I just bought this perfume and it keeps growing on me.
When I first spray it on me smells a bit cheap, but it grows into a soft floral with just a bit of fruitiness.
After it settles down completely, I can even feel a bit of spiciness – from the leather, probably. It is extremely feminine.
For me it feels like a day perfume. Now it’s early spring, but I think I can wear it in the summer as well.
e_egor_r – :
Accordind to all other’s reviews (the positive ones) I think Eleganza is a fitting name-I also agree with patchouli and leather be the Kings of the perfume (I wish was the pear…) and for me,yes,reminds me of something familiar too…the next day my clothes smells something really close to Untold (E.Arden) and C.Mademoiselle (Chanel).
(!!!!Really funny,those two???Together?)
But most of all,I really like and enjoy this one!
For me is a medium-longevity perfume on skin and great on clothes,really perfume-y and not synthetic at all.
Came across by mistake but I m very happy for it.
This spring will smell like Signorina Eleganza for me!!!
pashka307 – :
Beautiful and elegant scent. I definitely smell the sweetness of pear offset by the leather. The sweet and the leather almost smell like honey. I can smell a slight resemblance to EA Untold at first spray probably due to the pear but Eleganza doesn’t have the sharp patchouli which is good. There’s something very familiar which I can’t put my finger on.
skercecloferm – :
Among the line with the weird Signorina name, this Eleganza was my fave. Strangely it smells less fruity and less sweet than the regular.
I hate both grapefruit and pear in perfumes, so I was worried upon try, but to my dismay listed notes are often not so descriptive of the perfume. I would say a perfume is more of the sums of all notes. Luckily, Eleganza smells floral and I really smelled the beautiful osmanthus.
It’s an elegant modern woody floral.
zcd129Diobtetty – :
Smells much better than the original signorina to me. Signorina eleganza is fresh and elegant at the same time. (It does remind me of Chanel Chance, both are fresh yet classy, eleganza is sweeter tho) It tastes fresh and slightly sour to me, yet without the rotten sourness found in the original one. My favorite of the signorina line would still be the edt version though. It is the most unique and uplifting one in the line.
EDIT: this stuff is very long lasting. I juz took a shower n I can still sniff it around my wrist. And the dry down is a beautiful fresh patchouli. Damn, I think I do like this one 🙂
GORGIK0001 – :
Eleganza is absolutely elegant! I love the original Signorina EDP, and I love this one even better. The leather note gives it an elegant touch. Eleganza is soft and would be perfect for the office. I feel wonderful when I wear it.
zero7750 – :
This perfume speaks beautifully, but doesn’t really say a thing. Very well blended, elegant and classy fruitchouli, heavier on the fruity side, i would prefer something spicier because this way nothing really memorable or original happens during drydown.
I can’t even detect it on myself only during the first hour, though others are still able to smell it.
On the first day of testing I got a compliment on it by a stranger, which never happened to me before with any other scent. Overall it’s very pretty so I’ll consider buying it 🙂
Fagrowaro – :
First spray reminds me of single malt scotch whiskey. Peat?
Then I am taken back to the perfume department of Debenham’s in the early 1980s. There was a fragrance there – something by Missoni and new?. Up to that point I thought all good fragrances came from France. (I was young).
Maybe a touch of candied pear….
and a vision in my minds eye of beautiful Italian knitwear and Italian leather handbags…… and yes, the scent of Scottish peat.
May have to come back to edit this later in the day.
End of the day. Can I live without this fragrance? Yes
aviaposter – :
I received this as a holiday gift from my sister. It’s quite a lovely, fresh fragrance and very modern with the fruity patchouli combo. It reminds me a lot of Miss Dior. It’s one of my moderate strength fragrances, fresh and fruity (mostly a sweet pear), and dries down to a undeniably fresh (not so dirty) patchouli. I imagine a pretty, young woman wearing this. I really do enjoy it. It’s perfect for the spring. Lasting power is somewhere in the 3-4 hour range.
ncNx – :
I am really disappointed 🙁
I had to give this away as I couldn’t smell it on me at all within 5 minutes.

I recently got a sample and I’m totally in love. It’s pretty similar to Miss Dior EDT on my skin, with a little almondy warm hug in the dry-down. Dear Santa, please be so sweet and bring me a bottle of this one! xoxo 🙂

Oh, my darling, finally I found you! I have been looking for a scent like this for years and suddenly on the Airport there you are. On my skin it is soft spicy and warm. A nice combination of spices, flowers, fruits and leather. My skin eats fragrance so I have to reapply after around 4 hours.
Elegant and sexy scent!

Tried it recently, the sales person said it had better sales than the first release: Signorina. On my skin it was not the same fragance I tried on paper strip. On top of that (unfortunately) it did not stay more than 10 minutes, I had a hard time trying to smell it from my wrist… it’s a no-no, sorry Salvatore!

This is my second review for SE and I have to say it’s truly a beautiful scent very well crafted and so elegant true to its name.
SE has nothing in common with original Signorina SE is a fragrance for well determined and confident ladies.
The leather and patchouly are very delicate and they mix well with the sweet pear this is areal keeper

What to say? This perfume is totally beautiful. I thought I’d never fall in love that hard again with a perfume after Coco Mademoiselle, but this one really came close. Less sweet than the original Signorina, the Eleganza version is much more interesting and appealing to me. I always have problems with very sweet perfumes–sooner or later I always get headache wearing them. I really wanted to like Signorina but sadly it’s too sweet for my liking and I almost ended up hating it. Signorina Eleganza, though, handles its sweetness just fine. The little miss has definitely grown up.
The opening is harsh, which
