Bijan VIP

Bijan VIP may have the most elegant fragrance, within the Bijan line I own. But it is a different elegance from the Bijan Men, for instance, which is a classic with a lot of energy, but a lot of power, with the style of the bombs of the 80s, almost bordering on animality. Bijan VIP does not have this aggressive characteristic. It has a more timeless and more pleasant DNA. It opens with a very good sage and a naughty lemon, almost imperceptible. The secret, in my opinion, lies in the heart notes (paprika, pink pepper, geranium, and suede), which really last throughout the evolution on my skin and are rich, with very natural nuances. The suede is fantastic in this scent! Finally, basic woods, such as cedar and sandalwood, accompanied by beautiful guava wood and the root of the Germanic iris (or Iris Florentina) which, in fact, contrary to what many people think, has an odor that resembles violets. For me, this fragrance has a profile more focused on work environments or night events (not ballads). And as I said before, longevity and projection are not problems in Bijan's perfumes

This cheap little scent is as sharp as a razor I get monster sillage and longevity on my skin A certain winter scent in my eyes ( and nose ) A deffo try for you Bijan-VIP Virgins out there

I love this scent for my husband. Very masculine. Not sure if the bottle design is manly enough- but love the cologne.

It looks to be a copy of Quorum Silver, but Quorum is stronger and more sophisticated

This is an interesting one. I have the other Bijan, Bijan Men. If that one was the Beast, then this is definitely the Beauty. Its a far more subtle smell with that signature Bijan opening of chaos. A very salt and pepper opening, you know like that really comforting smell when you open a bag of fish and chips on a cold day, not that fishy smell but same sensation. What i'm very surprised about is the longevity. High sillage, but low longevity as if the blend just isn't quite right. I think i can smell it on my skin but it goes faint within an hour. Thats a real shame here and that makes the fragrance overpriced and pretty pathetic - sort of in the Dior Sauvage performance levels. Bottle is pretty cool but im not impressed by those big weird tops. The ring design here is suited to the perfume gollums amongst us - very solid and signature. But the top doesn't work, but thats ancilliary.
