Diavolo So Sexy per Donna

20. july 2013 I have found this one today in a small store selling everything from washing detergent to hair colours to Naomi Campbell and Novaya Zarya fragrances. I saw it on sale and last 100ml bottle was less than 10 eur and since they even had a tester i asked for a test spray. (I must admit that Antonio Banderas is the sexiest man alive for me amongst all the celebrities, so the name of mr. Banderas attached to this fragrance is an instant magnet. We don ́t have Banderas perfumes here where i live so i never had a chance to try any of them, except for "seduction" line while travelling, which i have found very pleasant as well.) First test was on paper: YUMMY! This is really good! I am so surprised how wonderfull it smells. Then on my skin: same feeling, same great smell! The weather is warm and windy, but not hot outside and it smells even better at the moment. I am not sure if it would smell so good during extremly hot and humid period of the year. Sweet nectarines, huge bowl of tea, a hint of rose and delicate green notes (just like the echo, not loud at all). Add the slightest hint of sweet plum (this is not a smokey plum, it is a ripe sweet one) and musky sandalwood. YUMMY! No wood for me in here, like the previous reviewer said. Extremly well blended! I am amazed of such a great composition. You know, it does reminds me of something, but i can ́t put my finger on it. All i know that it smells like a sweet version of Bulgari ́s "Au the vert" (the peachy green tea). The same vibe and it gives me the same feeling, but it ́s not that cold, as Bulgari, thanks to the nectarines and plum. Simply put - great one! Never mind the price tag. I see it could be also good for cold and snowy winter time as well. Moderatly sweet and airy, fresh and tranquilizing. Yes the sillage is more soft, but still very detectable and i ́ve been wearing this one for over an hour and it still smells as strong as it was when i tested it. Never mind, i am sooooo loving this one. I could reappy it when needed. :) I am off to back to the shop to buy that last bottle they have and the tester. I see it is quite rare one, so i can ́t pass this chance. GREAT DISCOVERY!!!! UPDATE (12.august 2013): by now i have managed to try the orginal Diavolo per donna and i can say that they are very similar, but the original Diavolo is more citrusy and more fresh, while "so sexy" has a pronounced fruity note. But the base is very similar. I have managed to buy several bottles of the regular one and am madly in love with it, it is my go-to scent.

The smell is nice, very straightforward from the notes. Green, woody and musky. Unfortunately it does not last long at all. If you're one of those people that likes re-applying perfume, this is for you. I just like to put it on in the morning and have it last. It has a nice sprayer though. Long fulfilling bursts :) I keep it in the office and re-apply as needed. The scent is great.
