Description
The house of Etro presented a new version named Etro VIA VERRI Vintage Limited Edition in November 2008. This is a gentle and sophisticated fragrance, which wraps all our senses in a delicate and unobtrusive way. Its top notes transform in a gentle heart full of silky notes, characteristic of metamorphical compositions by the house of Etro. Aura of the new fragrance develops and uncovers notes, which are different on everybody’s skin. Its individuality brings surprise both for men and women. The new fragrance is the successor and representative of old Etro editions, reshaped in modern context.
Top notes of the perfume Via Verri Vintage Limited Edition are sensational, sparkling and natural. They include powerful mandarin scent in harmony with brilliant spicy accords of cardamom and coriander. The heart introduces jasmine with spicy rhythm of nutmeg and woody-spicy cypress, which impresses with elegance and sensuality. Base notes change the course of composition with playful waves of oak, mineral amber and musky accords, which warm the composition, giving a delicate, luxury, fragrant bottom layer.
Flacon is ideal for loyal customers and fans of Etro editions. It is made of glass and retains its recognizable style and luxury, full of contrast and passion. The perfume is available in amount of 100 ml.

I expected to find myself in Vía Verri with a fragrance basically with the smell of rose, a fresh and velvety rose, but no, none of that, that is why I recommend to test first before buying any fragrance.
Via Verri is a citrus cologne with a spicy touch, the floral notes supposedly should occupy the heart notes, but there is hardly anything floral, no jasmine, let alone detect pink. The only floral and powdery touch that I detect is the agreement of iris with faceted facets that feels subtle and delicate, this is associated with light woody notes with a point of musk that could be cashmeran.
The fragrance is soft, light, nothing natural, but with a good balance, it has little projection. I find it suitable for daily use and with a unisex character. For the rest, not much more to say.
For my taste, and without being horrendous, it is far from being a good fragrance.

I bought a sample and was expecting something great from this fragrance. Actually first 10 minutes I was impressed and like “I’m gonna buy it, it could be my favorite”. It smelled so spicy and fresh and so elegant, White pepper, cardamom, bergamot were perfectly blended as for me. But after those great ten minutes I feel only iris and musk. My two sisters had the same feeling.

At the beginning enters the bergamot + pure cardamom.
Then long open the note of wood as in Majda Bekkali fait un reve, clean , light recent , adds the iris. Afterwards the rose with the jasmine posts freshness and subtlety , cleanness is sparkled , and musk. By the all scent is very very light and subtle. It will not tire.
The elegant scent on an everyday basis.
We smell the hand …I feel nothing except the cleanness soapy skin, I move I scent the light flashy feminine scent. <3

This is not Via Verri. This is Via Verri Vintage, which is a spicy rose scent, fresh, sparkling, still masculine because of its spices. Smells almost like a barber-shop rose. I recommend this even to men.
The notes listed above belong to Via Verri (2010). This is a complete different scent, green, spicy. The flower in this scent is jasmin not rose. Melts down to a creamy, aromatic something. Total unisex.

My experience with this perfume which I own, and was purchased in Europe , is very similar to that of Kchild and Geri: hundreds of fresh sweet and spicy wonderful roses… Which is so different than the listed notes here… What is going on? Really unusual for a scent to depart that much from what is expected…

Wow~this is GORGEOUS!!! I’m currently on a rose bender so have been buying or trying every version that I can get my hands on it seems.
Well fate stepped in and gave me a kiss. A darling swap buddy sent me this from The Netherlands and now I’m indebted to her for life.
This is pure unadulterated womanly rose veiled by soft, tantalizing spices. The spices never distract from the rose. They enhance her and allow her to become more…..carnal. The spices never entirely go away either. It’s as if they are gently holding up these plush, velvety, rose petals that are just starting to wilt. As if her beauty was so irreplaceable that they were called on to extend it just a litle bit longer.
I’ve never smelled anything quite like this one and I cherish my bottle. Those who do not walk comfortably under the visage of woman need not apply.
This rose is experianced in the art of love. She is dripping w/a sensuality that will seduce for hours and hours.
Sillage is perfect. Very present w/out being too much.
Longevity on me is a good 8+ hours.
This one is the form in the corner of a dark dinner house/lounge. As you get closer to examine what that dark corner holds you are stunned at the voluptuous beauty that reveals herself to you as you approach.
Why have I never seen her before you wonder……..

An original and unusual as all the other Etro scents. Refreshing, sweet and spicy at the same time. I’m not a citrus lover, but mandarins there are on their place, not nasty and they are framing the spicy beginning. Then comes sweet jasmine with nutmeg. I don’t feel woody notes to my disappointment, but may be it’s my skin chemistry. I don’t feel any rose here, even a hint of a rose. Are there different versions of it?

This is an absolutely lovely fragrance. It smells rich and floral, like you were bathing in hundreds of roses. On top of that it lasts long and you can mix it up with other Etro Fragrances, try it with viccolo fiori.
