This one’s a No for me dawg. Nope. I have $3 bodysprays I like better. I think it’s the wood. I love some Woody scents, but this wood smells like a stack of 2x4s. Also the rose. It’s a fairly sharp Rosey scent. This one really didn’t work for me!
gagarin-1988 – :
very femminine, very donatella versace. the rose is dominant, well balanced so it’s not strong or offensive. in the back there is a fresh and sweet vibe. seductive and elegant, it’s available for a cheap price. it’s very underrated, i cant understand why. performance is very good, if u sniff closely it is strong but the sillage is very gorgeous and delicate yet detectable. better for 25 and up, good for any season but summer, for day and night. girls, try it if u can. consigliato a tutte le ragazze.
scent.8,5
my vote-8,5
in one word- flower
HOPPER82 – :
Dabbed a little from my friend’s mini.it’s a nice grown-up perfume but not something I’d like to have.I can get berry,plummy-rose,cedar and musk but I won’t call it an overly rosey scent,not an overly fruity one either.after a while it dries down to a musky cedar with a hint of florals
Too much woody for my taste
ktokisa – :
Got this from a family member. It’s sweet and feminine –too sweet for my taste actually– but I’m okay with that. It’s also musky and Woody. What I liked about it was its longlasting longetivity.
FriendCooper – :
It’s very 90-ties scent. Raspberryish rose + scent of sticky petunias’ and surfinias’ leaves at the end of a hot day + orange substance produced by ladybirds when catched (!)
vadim_1994 – :
At first I wasn’t a fan of this perfume. It was definitely unique but I wasn’t sure this would be something I’d want to smell on a woman. After awhile the smell grew on me and I found myself craving another wiff. Beautiful fragrance.
chelsi – :
This perfume is very Versace.
Sexy, floral and kind of smokey. It works both day and night, but my personal preference is for this to be worn during the Fall.
I found it to be very long-lasting, and increasing in depth as the day went on.
I wouldn’t describe it as spectacular, but it is nice enough.
Ветер – :
I’m not usually a floral kind of person but this is nice. it is a nice blend of light floral and warmth. I like that it’s sweeter and softer and more feminine than my usual woodsy, fresh and citrus choices.
Namormaks – :
As much as I LOVE Versace Bright Crystal, this one does the opposite. On my skin, the dry down scent smells exactly like light lamp oil, so toxic and chemical.
Clitemextoilk – :
Versace Woman is an elegant, feminine fragrance. On myself it’s a bit powdery,rose musk and wood notes. It smells nice as a weekend at home or work scent. I will finish my bottle, but I won’t repurchase. There are so many other nicer perfumes.
P.S. the bottle reminds me of a bingo dauber and it doesn’t stand very well.
vikmay – :
I just received this from my boyfriend 3 days ago, because he liked it very much. At first smell, I was not attracted too much, especially by the top notes, but already from the middle ones and the whole drydown, it became extremely pleasant and cosy, just like a sunny Autumn day with a hand full of warm chestnuts! After a short lookup I was astonished to see the nose behind it is Christine Nagel, which at the moment presents a great fascination for me because it seems I am extremely fond and inspired by her creations. I already tried layering this fragrance with more sharp, masculine juices and the results are quite nice. In any case, you must try it before buying, but if you like nice fruity florals, I must say this one is a winner especially because it adapts to any ocassion and environment.
sashamary – :
I go for months without this and then I start yearning for it – it makes me feel good about life – it’s perfect for this time of year x
evgenia – :
Another Versace I was gifted with.
To my nose, it’s sweet; the most prominent note is rose, respberry next.
When I wore this in the summer, it didn’t smell as good as in colder weather – at least to me. It’s because I find Versace Woman quite comforting and cozy – must be the plum 🙂
A nice, elegant smell, and according to me, perfect for the chilly, rainy days.
nirunad82 – :
* These are my personal experiences/thoughts with this fragrance. Yours/others may differ. *
Initial – rose + raspberry + bergamot
Drydown – raspberry + cedar + musk
Duration – 5-6 hours
Projection – soft
My Experiences – A pleasant, but unremarkable raspberry/musk scent. Pretty and inoffensive, but not really memorable. The projection is soft – I often forget I have it on until I bring my arms close to my face. I really hate the bottle though – it’s pretty, but the slightest movement and it falls over.
Quick Thoughts – raspberry, musky, girly, fruity, soft
wikpo50 – :
the drydown is absolutely beautiful
very musky and woody and rosy
but the beginning is horrible
too fruity and sweet
and the berry smells nothing like berry
anyway, quite feminine
for the drydown i am willing to endure the top notes
Fleyim – :
BORING! I wore it today, and had really forgotten how boring it really is. First of all, I can hardly pick up any scent after half an hour. So I need to spray the heck out of it to be able to detect anything at all, and what I catch is merely boring niceness. It is not a bad frag, don’t get me wrong, it is pleasant, but that’s about it: just pleasant. On the same boredom-scale like L’Air du Temps and White Shoulders. I will use it up eventually, and hope I don’t accidentally repurchase down the line. There should be a “feeling indifferent” botton on this site. I mean. I don’t actually dislike it, but I also don’t like it. It’s a “doesn’t do anything for me, so I couldn’t care less” frag. I have a few of them in my like category, because it’s not really hate, but just meh. Well, maybe this needs to go to dislike, because I really actually do not like it. I guess, that’s where I will put it now.
Vimaxtqaguchjmzx – :
Musky fruity sweetness that I adore wearing in the hot summer days. Didn’t like it from the start but eventually I fell in love with this fragrance. Looking for something fresh and berry like that is not watered down? Versace Woman might be your lucky find.
Sonia2006 – :
Update- It got on my shirt and I found out I really like it on clothes. Somehow it actually complements my fabric softener instead of clashing with it like I thought it would. On my skin, however, it will sometimes acquire an almost Treasor-like heaviness only at the start. Btw the slight sweet powderiness puts me personally in the mind of Avon Sensuelle. P.S. The drydown seems to be etherial to me. Finally I have found a fragrance that showed me what it means when people use this word.
nikkk – :
Some people say it smells like a dio and I can understand where they are coming from. To me it smells powdery and a bit like a sweet-smelling hand cream but it somehow gives the impression of elegance in the same time. Good longevity.
olena-kotenok – :
I bought this one about two years ago totally blind, during a boring flight from Italy. When i tried it at home i realized it was a very nice addition to my collection and – by coincidence – epitome of italian chic. I like a lot the elegant vibe of Woman – nothing over the top, nothing too much, just clean, floral scent with added raspberry sweetness. May seems a bit ordinary but the truth is that Woman fits any occasion, any season, any dress code. I feel confident when i wear it, it’s like an old friend i can always rely on.
Rose and jasmin – two of my most beloved flowers – in a hug. Musky base and thank God, i don’t feel a lot of amber, because sometimes amber smells heavy, even dirty on my skin. Not in this one. Sheer feminity.
And it is sexy too – the way a white silk shirt is.
Seriosly underrated gem from the house of Versace.
Данил – :
I had it first hand when it was out – bought it off a friend who got it as a pressie but desperately needed money – and how I loved it back then in my twenties! It`s a sweet and yet sexy perf, not any of the others I used before that point in life had this playful chutzpah before, let me not explain about Vanilla Fields and Impulse Spice..:-D
I bought it again and again since then, yet I think it is more of a `young` scent..Something that belongs to under 35 anyway, and as you develop a certain taste in perfumes over the years you just `grow out` of this one.I think the rose, fruits and citrus blends in brilliantly with my skin, but at this stage I would choose an `intense` version of it, if there was one..something more intriguing and complex. But I still like to take a secret sniff off others who wear it – for old times` sake and the memories that go with them. 🙂
Егоров – :
Pretty, soft, feminine. Not very exciting but a lovely every day fragrance. The packaging is perfect for it somehow, sweet, quite simple but reasonably sophisticated. Ageless scent, very well blended, I don’t pick out individual notes and I really like that about it.
The advert with the woman practically trying to snog her own reflection is comically dire and off-putting. This charming amiable little creation didn’t deserve that.
guthan7 – :
*Second review*
I haven’t used this fragrance in quite a while, so I though I would brake it out today. At first, all I get is a strong rose scent, which lasts about an hour or so. I do like the initial scent, but then it starts to smell more and more like plastic. Like some plastic toy or something. I didn’t get that before, but now that I do, I do not like it very much.
I will give this to my mom, if she wants it.
I_ARCHANGEL_I – :
Have you ever encountered a designer whom you desperately WANTED to love their fragrances but literally EVERY one you try is a disastrous scrubber on your skin? Well, I have, and it’s unfortunately Versace. This review probably isn’t helpful except to say not a safe blind buy, but I’m writing anyway because I’m curious if anyone knows why this might happen? Is Versace using some ingredient in every fragrance that other designers are not?
Every Versace fragrance I’ve ever tried goes all alcohol & sharpness on me. Woman was unfortunately no exception. And here I am, such a relentless perfume hound, that I still have high hopes for Crystal Noir which is one I’ve yet to try and refuse to take off my test list despite my struggle with other Versace fragrances. lol
Woman didn’t get as sharp and screechy on me as the other Versaces I’ve tried, but it just smelled like a linear blast of cedar shavings (like from a hamster cage) that were used to soak up spilled fruit juice and alcohol! This is obviously a personal issue/ chemistry complication. It seems by the reviews that it works great for other people. I just know I can’t be the ONLY person on the planet with this chemistry so my advice is thoroughly test before buying. I’ve yet to come across a Versace that was a safe blind buy.
Feroemomy – :
Striking smells like incense and incense only.
I’m orthodox and here they use incense very much in churches (especially for funerals).
I associate this perfume with church and death, it’s horror.
I had to wash my wrist several times (it’s very long lasting for that matter).
Strong and aggressive, you should wear it when you go to fight and break up with your boyfriend 🙂
hamlet30 – :
It’s good, even really good for a daily use, inoffensive, delicate raspberry-musky thing. Was on my wishlist, but now that I’ve had a sample, I made up my mind. It’s nothing special, I mean, not to die for, but pleasant definitely 🙂
dreg – :
This is woody floral done well, a nice blend of berry and woodsy notes. While it’s not a must have I suppose for me it really has a good place in my collection for day to day events, shopping etc. I gave away my bottle and went and bought another. I think it’s worth owning.
Monster2385 – :
Beautiful! I have been searching for this for sometime until I found it online. Very difficult to find in my country and I have used half of a bottle in 2 months and already got complements on it from colleagues.
I smell a combination of honey, tea and rose in this one. i do not know why I smell a strong honey note. Very subtle, feminine, soft, young and elegant. It can be worn everywhere and even if It is subtle and it is long lasting too. A unique perfume and the bottle is gorgeous. The ideal time for wearing it is spring and autumn.
This is the first floral woody musk perfume I have had and was a successful experience 🙂
Aiforiy3235 – :
Unfortunately, I did not enjoy this fragrance. I don’t know which notes my body chemistry is clashing with, but it smells like cigarettes and tobacco mixed with sweet, fruity notes on me. And those are my least favorite things to smell. A blind buy, I got this from TJ Maxx, assuming I would love it because it was Versace. I might give this to a friend and see how it smells on them.
ansonic – :
Fresh, sweet, floral, fruity, day time, feminine frag. Suitable for all seasons, ideal for spring. Longevity and sillage moderate. Non-offensive, suitable for work. Very acceptable creation overall.
oyn260InsuffBooni – :
I gave this to my sister in low she fell in love in it and people like it one her even ask her what she is wearing but on me is nothing special really.
7/10
rentgen890 – :
Very feminine, it smells like skin, but better. Plum, jasmine, raspberry, woody notes, musk, amber. Well blended, very Italian. I truly like it, but it’s too warm for me.
shnabis – :
This is one of the best, most beautiful compositions, yet probably the most under rated fragrance by the house of Versace. My signature scents are usually very very strong ones as my skin just drinks up everything it gets and in a bit, everything is untraceable. This however surprised me by its longevity as well as spillage. Sprayed just a tiny bit at night and sport feeling like a princess! Woke and and wow! I could still smell it! That doesn’t even happen with black orchid by Tom Ford on my skin! The fragrance itself is gorgeous, I do not get any rose but it’s such a gorgeous blend of vanilla, flowers and fruits that I would almost want to eat it! It’s such a big winner and a total keeper that it almost puts all of other Versace fragrances to shame, in terms of composition, longevity and spillage!
A_andrew_w – :
I guess it’s been reformulated, because I used to love it, and it lasted even a week on clothes, but now everything about it kinda sucks, and just has that one little something to remind you (trick you) into buying something you think you know.
mgruzin – :
Raspberry and strong leather with a touch of incense on my skin, this is not a little girl’s berry scent. I wouldn’t expect Versace to do raspberry any other way.
pemewearneRar – :
This is a GEM!!! Beautiful!!! I love Versace, every one I have is perfect, but this is my favourite now. I just LOVE the bottle and the gorgeous colours – the purples, pinks and light gold. It’s a beautiful box too: it’s all so elegant; the perfume and the packaging.
I find it very woody, which I love, but all the other notes are there too, just a touch of gentle sweetness, and floral, and musk – absolutely dreamy!
It lasts for ages, lovely and strong – it’s so uplifting and feminine.
Thank you Versace (Donatella) for making so many delicious perfumes for me!!!
Hinix – :
Gorgeous perfume! Woody floral. Versace Woman is the epitomé of a woman’s perfume – totally unique and sensual. Extremely beautiful woods on me, with the gentle flowers and fruits, musk and amber oozing their delightful ways through the wood. The woods are sublime. I never know I would love a perfume with so much wood in it – but this is heavenly!
I feel like a wood nymph, in the forest, with all the fabulous smells that a beautiful forest has, in my gorgeous long flowery dress, flitting here and there through the wonderland that is nature. I feel very womanly, a true lovely woman.
The bottle is absolutely gorgeous, and so easy to use! With either hand! The design and colours of the bottle and the box – so elegant and ethereal, and yet down to earth and here. Beautiful colouring!
It last so well on me, at least 12 hours, and the sillage is a lovely arm’s length, which is just right. My husband loves it too, and I get lots of compliments, when anyone is near me.
A unique masterpiece, in my opinion. GORGEOUS!!
MAVERIC – :
What a beautiful woody/floral/fruity/green/musky/amber perfume!! I love it completely! It is mainly wood for me, and it’s fantastic. I love it so much. I can’t believe it’s so good. It’s very unique I feel, like nothing I’ve ever had before. The woods (I do think there must be Inoki wood in it, as the article here introducing Versace Woman states), Lebanese blue cedar and Inoki wood sounds exactly right – and also frangipani leaves (also as stated in the same article), because for me it has a VERY woody and also a green leaves smell, predominantly.
It is definitely has the right name! Woman. It is very much the true, deep, essence of a woman, to my mind. Elegant, gentle yet strong, sophisticated, feminine, fresh, a free-spirit, a pure spirit, loving – truly female. A woman who knows herself, and loves herself and life, with a pure heart.
From the very first spray, I smell beautiful, glorious, fresh, green wood, which stays forever, whilst all the other notes come and go, wafting in and out all the time. Rose, lovely wild and sweet, definitely a raspberry rose; bergamot (I love bergamot!), lotus very much throughout, and jasmine, gently touching here and there. And a lovely juicy but not too sweet plum comes along soon after, adding a full-flavoured feel to everything. About an hour or so into this wonderful experience gently comes the beautiful musk and warming amber to meld everything beautifully together, and keep it that way until the next day!! Amazing!!
The sillage is quite close to the body, but just detectable an arms-length away. And the longevity is beyond my wildest dreams!
So, for me (and I agree totally with KWGomez and oktober), Versace Woman is a GORGEOUS masterpiece of a woody floral perfume, with gentle overtones of fruit and amber/musk. And very much a woman’s perfume. 100/10!
Edit: Oops! I forgot to say how much I love the bottle!! It’s the absolutely beautiful expression of the perfume!! Divine!
wilman – :
Love love it! This is what a woody floral should smell like.
nsn112 – :
Today I have tried this scent , because I saw the bottle and I thought immediately that it was gorgeous, so, having forgotten to spray some of my perfume before going out (oh, how silly of me) I have decided to try it directly on my skin.
It is a very nice, femmine scent. It is very simple to wear and office safe as well. It lasts a lot, too. It is a very elegant mix of raspberry, rose and musk. I like it!
sd233 – :
I fished this out of my perfume storage area today while trying to downsize my collection. It was in my “to keep” area, so I sprayed it on my wrist to see if it should remain there. I don’t know how I missed this before, but Versace Woman reminds me of a slightly more complex and grown up version of one of my favorite discontinued VS scents, Berry Kiss. They share raspberry and rose notes, so it makes sense that they would resemble one another. Since rose has really grown on me as a fragrance note I am even more drawn to Versace Woman – the rose is subdued and there’s a jammy quality to it, enhanced by the raspberry. I don’t get much musk, though I do get some woodsiness in the dry down. I also get maybe just a hint of plum, but not much. VW stays mainly raspberry and rose throughout which I love. It’s understated enough for daily wear, but would also be sophisticated enough for dates or special events. It’s not what I would consider a night fragrance, but that’s fine since I have my go-to scents for nights out. It’s also wearable in any season. I will definitely be keeping Woman – she may even graduate to my regular rotation.
Edit to add:
Holy lasting power batman! The last time I wore this perfume it was winter and I thought Woman lasted a decent amount of time, but nothing to write home about. Today I woke up and I could still smell Woman on my skin. 12+ hours. Huge thumbs up!

Fragrance Review For Versace Woman
Top Notes: Bergamot Rose Jasmine
Middle Notes: Raspberry Plum Cedar Wood Lotus
Base Notes Amber Musk
First of all I don’t like it when they give a gender specific name to a fragrance: HOMME, HOMME NOIR, FEMME, POUR FEMME, WOMANITY, lol So the name turns me off. But I won’t let trivial things get in the way of my enjoying a fragrance. Versaces I own: Versace Blonde, Versace Blue Jeans, are among my favorites. Woman is actually not a fitting name for this perfume. This does not smell of a woman, that is a mature complex woman, but a young girl ages 17 to 21. She is either ending high school and discovering perfume or has newly discovered perfume and wears fruity floral and candied floral scents, including fragrance mists. I don’t know why they’d call this Woman when it wears more like GIRL, but again let’s not debate any of this. It’s just a perfume, right?
The raspberry jumped out at me and it reminded me of the scent coming out of girl’s hairs after gym class when they would spritz some body mists on after the shower in junior high. The rose and raspberry scent smell like candy, although I would maintain that this is still a sweet floral. It’s just not a green or herbal floral, more of a candy-floral. The plum note is sweet and fruity and gets bigger as the fragrance develops. The jasmine leaf is actually a soft jasmine which in turn smells more girly than womanly.
There is meant to be a wood note in this fragrance but for the life of me, I don’t get any wood. Once the fruit scents of plummy juiciness and delicious raspberry candy dissipates, and the rose is also disappearing, you get a lotus which matches up with rose, and it, too, fades. The dry down is a pure amber. The amber is warm, not resinous, but warm and with the additional touch of musk, it’s like a vain attempt to smell a tad more mature or womanly. Many perfumistas would tell you that musk is a mature woman scent as opposed to raspberry which is considered more youthful. In the end there is no balance or enough contrast between youth/maturity. All I get is a sweet girly girl fruity rose.
That being said I do enjoy raspberry scents from time to time. I also love my roses in perfumes no matter what form they come in: herbal green rose, tea rose, Bulgarian rose, aromatic rose, cold rose, candy rose, gourmand-rose, sugary rose. This is all about the rose. It’s like a pretty raspberry in the shape of a rose. I would recommend this to any female of any age group who loves rose fragrances and raspberry. This is sweet and very summery, easy to wear and pull off, a fragrance for parties and informal get togethers. Longevity is an issue for me. It doesn’t last as long as it would like it to. It would have been interesting if they had prolonged this rose’s life with more woodsy notes and patchouli in addition to the amber, but no. Not bad though.
Frurpareesits – :
Versace Woman is a lovely fruity floral perfume. I love the design of the bottle. This has a lot of things I like about women’s perfumes: rose, fruit, woods, amber. This is a really simple scent and so easy to wear. At the first spritz of Woman I smelled a sweet raspberry and plum combination. Sweet fruitiness. Flirty. Girly. But the direction it takes is a tad more mature. It becomes a floral fragrance with a very pronounced red rose scent along with some white jasmine. The woods and musk in the base give it a depth and maturity. It’s elegant, it’s sophisticated and took me by surprise thinking it would be too airy or too fruity. Everything is in balance. It’s a well behaved perfume. It’s not too in your face and doesn’t come on too strong. It’s not detectable to others unless they’re up close. I will be wearing this to my next performance on a cruise ship. This is sexy, sweet, soft, and just right for me.
rom4ik – :
Woman is not your typical floral-musk. I’m not sure if it’s the raspberry, but there’s something about it that I’m always drawn to. Fairly unique in my opinion, and the bottle is beyond beautiful.
ifvfy99 – :
If you ever smelled Daisy Eau So Fresh how it’s like a day that progresses from the green smell of morning dew on the grass, then comes the sweet smell of raspberries and meadows with flowers as the sun warms the Earth, apple and plum trees in the heat of the afternoon, and closes out with wood and musk with those other scents lingering? This continues that smell into the night with the strong smell of an evening near the woods.
This is very strong and very woody on me, but some sweetness lingers from the raspberries, plums and flowers. A little goes a very long way, but as a suggestion, you could easily switch from daytime Daisy Eau So Fresh to evening Versace Woman in spring or summer and could also be a winter day substitute if Daisy Eau So Fresh is too light for you when it’s cold.
neancePaype – :
This is the best fragrance culmination that summed up 90s fruity frags. Plummy and woody that veers off into a different direction into floral woody musk. (not much a floral, theyre just a supporting role)
It comes close to an Oriental but doesnt quite make it because of the woods and fruits bit no spice. If you want something unique, check this one out.Nagel flashes her brilliance here. Its sexy, femimine, frag that men compliment on it. Unique for the genre and big on silage! She is WOMAN . Cousin to Feminite du Bois and Dolce Vita.
Inwarpwrank – :
Never get this as a blind pick! There might be people who like this…but i almost hated it. It says nothing, does nothing. Why? The perfume failed to do the only thing it had to do: SMELL. It isn’t there.
niam – :
I hated this perfume. I can barely tell what it smells like. It’s just a mess.
It’s very woody.
EmonoRumSkymn – :
It is not in the notes, but I smell vetiver in this fragrance. A bit of raspberry and plum, but to me the cedar, rose and vetiver take the spotlight very soon, and stays that way until the end. I can see a man wearing this scent, very fresh and somehow seductive unisex scent.
oen606speagoessenda – :
There are some similarities between Woman and Yellow diamond but Woman seems to be more feminine and floral when Yellow Diamond is more fresh and citrusy.
To me, the cedar isn’t appealing but I can see (scent) how it fits its concept.
I don’t know what it is that makes this a typical Versace scent but I think it’s the woody/cedar + bergamot combination.
… With the strong rose and the raspberry note, this perfume could be a relative/sibling to Yellow Diamond and also Eau Fraiche, because of the “common denominator”: cedar and bergamot.
It’s more floral than sweet. Not too intensive, you can spray it more than 1-2 times without getting, or giving someone, a headache. It’s unique; I haven’t smelled anything that smells 90% like this, yet – in my opinion – it isn’t something that’s outstanding.
To sum it up: a more feminine, floral and lightly sweet (or sweeter) version of Yellow Diamond. Not bad but not their best.
vuctuddency – :
I saw VW advertised at £15.99 for 50ml, so I was interested enough to go and sample it in Boots. I had read here many different reviews, poor longevity, not the best smelling perfume etc, so I didnt hold out much hope for it, but I came away from Boots with an open mind. I really loved the top notes as soon as I sprayed it on my wrist, but I am not so silly as to judge a perfume by its top notes alone, so I didnt buy it then and there. After about an hour the middle notes came through and I still loved it, and in total this perfume lasted me a little over 7 hours in total. So the longevity was definatley better than I had hoped for, and although the fragrance didnt change an awful lot throughout its life, I really loved all stages of it. The next day I shot back to boots to buy a 50ml bottle, and I dont regret it, it really is a feminine classy smelling perfume. I think at £15.99 I may even just go an buy a back up bottle, it really is that beautiful.
Jennilokji – :
This is a perfume that I really wanted to like but I think the cedar in it comes on too strong and spoils it for me. It starts a bit sharp but the powdery notes
mellow it out. It’s sweet and a little bit cloying and it’s a perfume that you either love it or hate it.i will continue to wear it as I have a big bottle to use up
but I do not feel the wow factor while wearing it. I will not give up because I may end up loving it. It’s floral woody fruity but not sure if it all works together.
ph999 – :
I love this perfume. It is a sillage bomb on me. Moreover, after all of the smell disappears, a jasmine smell stays on my skin until I take a bath. It also sticks on clothes for days. Since it has a powerful sillage, spraying 1-2 times is enough 🙂
Dustman – :
I love this perfume. It reminds me of being 14, when I was first given a bottle from my Mum. My boyfriend describes it as my “signature scent” It’s very feminine but also classy.
vitalos – :
smells like love
sasa60 – :
Wow! This is a super sexy raspberry-musky-powdery perfume that really is mesmerizing. The musk and gentle amber keep this one from floating into the ‘fruity floral’ abyss while keeping it sensual feeling. The raspberry adds levity and interest, and the combination of the short, but smartly selected note list offer a final product that is just the right amount of sweet, and a fragrance that is a treat for your senses.
Seriously gorgeous. Definitely recommend.
AnLeo – :
This fragrance is definitely for women and not girls. I would never have worn it in my 20s-30s; it was only in my 40s that I began to appreciate the heady bouquet of jasmine and rose, with the raspberry notes designed to lighten the heaviness. It’s a perfume for intrigue with your lover and anonymous hotel rooms.
KoT_BleVyH – :
On my skin this is very sweet, lots of plum, musk and amber. I hardly smell anything else than that. It’s a rather heavy scent on my skin. I would only wear it in the evening or during the wintertime. I’m not sure yet if I like it or not as it is quite elegant but also stings in my nose somehow.
neenlymidepet – :
Good perfume enters into a conversation with person’s skin chemistry. And this one does. I love the way Versace Woman talks to my skin. But it’s a Woman’s perfume. I feel that only quite recently I have earned the right to wear it
andrex – :
This opens with a powdery, sweet berry accompanied by a bergamot bite that quickly fades. Under the berry there is a hint of lotus. This opening surprises me. I was expecting something much different when I looked at the bottle. The opening settles on the skin rather quickly and within fifteen minutes the opening has faded, and we are fully in the heart.
The heart is the star of this scent. There is a rich, dark wood that comes out and adds a deep mysterious element to the sweet berries. The berries are now touched by a rose and there is less powder than in the opening. The lotus isn’t noticeable now. The wood here is worth noting. I think it’s the main thing that makes this scent stand out. The wood is very cedar-like but it has a slightly citrusy quality to it while at the same time it’s dark and even a tad broody. It balances out the bright sweetness of the rosy berries nicely
The dry down hits after about two hours. It’s a soft amber touched musk. Very basic, nothing out of the box, nothing really worth noting. The scent is completely gone after about 4-5 hours.
Overall this scent is short lived, but nice to experience while it’s here. The wood used in this composition is really the most interesting part of this scent, and is the one thing that saves this scent from being completely forgotten about in the halls of “eh, boring”. I believe that the horrid bottle is quite deceptive and not at all a reflection of the scent inside.

Muskier than I expected just reading the notes. I think it’s the combo musk plus lotus that ruins it for me, giving it a soapy, powdery vibe. It does smell soft and clean though, it would probably be very nice with the right skin chemistry.

in-su-ppor-table, c’est probablement dû aux framboises.
The rasberry are very strong
