Bijan VIP Women

Blind Buy gone gloriously right: When I first tried this I didn't think that I'd liked it - my oh my how happy I am that i kept it and gave it a chance. Heavens how I love this scentI almost feel compelled to wear it on a daily basis despite the fact that I have other choices.. Bijan VIP is definitely a feel good fragrance, spicy floral with sweet creamy undertones. This scent is sweetly sexy. The mandarin orange, distinct from the very beginning is very uplifting and blends well with the plum, I barely pick up the blackcurrant but i get ramdom wiffs of it that I think adds to the dimension of the perfume. As it dries down it only gets better, it becomes an amber floral mix of sweetness and succulence that wraps itself around you and around those closest to you. The silage isn't amazing it's somewhat of a skin scent although there are occasions when people around me smell it so maybe the silage is better than I give it credit for being. The lasting power is so so probably 2 - 5 hours tops (but that's to do with my body chemistry since more often than not my skin eats perfume). The scent itself is wonderful, warm, intoxicating and inviting. I can't even begin to describe how much I love it, somehow it always manages to make me smile.

I've had a large bottle of VIP for a few years, but I haven't put much of a dent in it. It's definitely not something that I could wear every day, yet every time I wear it, I enjoy this very unusual skin-scent. To me, it is liquid Jujubes. I have always loved the smell and taste of these little US candies, which are to me very musky, perfumey, and synthetic. From Wikipedia, "Jujubes, known for their hard, break-glass quality texture, began production in 1920. Original flavors included lilac, violet, rose, spearmint, and lemon. Rose and spearmint have been changed to cherry and lime, as a result of flavor availability. Thus, the current flavor lineup is lemon (yellow), lilac (orange), lime (green), cherry (red), and violet (purple)." So is VIP signature-worthy? No,not for me, but it's fun to wear occasionally. Added bonus: my husband told me that I smelled good this morning.

Love this one! Although it's a bit synthetic, like all Bijan perfumes, it's a soft, deep and slightly sweet skin scent. It's stays close to the skin so for me it's a little bit too weak. I like my perfumes loud and strong because i love to smell my perfume all day long. That's when you are an addict you will never have enough LOL. But a good one and stands out in the crowd because it smells different not so oridinary.

perfect.absolutely perfect.tiare jasmin blended with lovely and slowly vanilla amber.soft and powdery but never boring or annoying.sillage and longevity perfect,i didnt been affected since mon jasmin noir.bearable all occasions too.

This perfume is SOO amazing! Fantastic quality, GREAT sillage and staying power. Survived the overnight test EASY! Very very creamy, sensual, intoxicating. GORGEOUS!

Ein Traumduft für kuschelige Abende und kalte Wintertage. Weich, warm, beruhigend, einfach wunderschön zu entspannen. Ich liebe ihn.

I love this. My husband even asked what I was wearing (he never does that) need to get another bottle soon I am almost out! :-O

User mandashell description about bijan VIP is perfekt.

This was a blind buy for me. Ordered a 2.5 fl. oz. EDT spray for $4.72. I must say it smells delicious! Smells extremely tropical. Lots of vanilla, then caramel or coconut (must be the amber or the musk), and sweet flowers. When it dries down, I smell more sweet vanilla. It's somewhat similar to Coty's Vanilla Fields, but stronger. And more like Avon's Far Away with more vanilla. Great for a cool, sunny tropical day or an evening walk on the beach and as an everyday fragrance for whenever. My only disappointment is - the bottle I ordered (came in a sealed wrapped new package) did not come with the signature keepsake charm around the neck of the bottle. I guess I'm not missing anything for it says on the back of the package to 'remove the keepsake charm prior to use'. So I guess they're just making the bottles now without the charm. And for $4.72 I guess I'm really not missing anything at all and like I said, it smells delicious! :)

Bijan VIP for women was one of my latest blind buys. I love gourmand scents so I thought it would make a great addition to my small collection. It does, indeed! Very nice, I enjoy wearing it - it is a real feel-good fragrance to me. Most prominent notes are jasmin and tiare, accompanied by some juicy plum and a hint of vanilla. Not too sweet, in fact I expected something a little bit more traditionally gourmand (I`m more used to Pink Sugar-style sugar overloads) so to me VIP is on the sweetened floral side but I`m loving it! Great for spring. I would recommend it for daytime wear only because sillage and longevity are both moderate. My 75 ml bottle is slightly clumsy and chunky but I love the colours! :) Good value for the price. I think it is recommendable for those who don`t normally like sugary, overly sweet gourmands - VIP is a safely sweet, floral delight and is worth trying.

I just love this perfume! I smelled it in the store and the first thing I thought of was rose. How odd! Rose is not a note in this! It smelled just like a powerful more juicy Rock 'N Rose Pret a Porter! After I got it home and wore it the next day I thought maybe I just smelled it wrong, but no, there it was... Rockin Rose Viva La Juicy Bijan VIP and slight M Mariah! haha VIP is juicy fruits, sweet florals, slightly tropical and oddly a bit grassy at first.... wouldn't have caught that if my mom hadn't of said "I smell a grassy note like in Covets" That was right after I sprayed it. Luckily that disappears pretty quickly, not sure what note it is. The bottom mingles with the top and middle instead of dominating adding perfect warmth and creaminess. Lasting power is amazing and I actually think the bottle is cute.

Bijan V.I.P is a smooth, creamy and dreamy berried fragrance with a slight woody nuttiness and a light but pretty floral addition. It is sweet but not very gourmand, just barely. It has a nice sillage that isn't overpowering and lasts well. I do like it but it isn't a love for me. I can see it being worn anytime but also agree with it being a great bed-time scent. Something about it is just relaxing and perfect for snuggling. It's just a very mellow and "chill" fragrance. LOL! XD So, if you are looking for a scent that is softly sweet, fruity, well blended and lasts then this would be a nice choice. Don't be fooled by the cheap price, this is a good buy and it doesn't smell cheap, artificial or synthetic! ;')

Received this one as a swap (Thank you Lavallectra!). I really like this one. Gotta say - the bottle is hideous! Especially with the lid on!Lol! Wasn't sure what to expect with this, since it has a plum note - I would've thought I'd love plum but so far I haven't found anything with plum that has set my senses on fire (and some have even been repellant!). That said, my first spray I thought "what have I done?!" but I left it to settle then went for a drive. Could not stop smelling my arm! I have to spray quite a bit in order to smell it on myself (but that's ok I have a 75ml and a lot of other frags to get through too!). I think I could wear this one at work as long as I don't douse myself in it. A winner.

Bijan V.I.P is a great scent. Opens up with plum and white flowers and softens down to amber, musk and vanilla. Just so sweet I can stand - I like it a lot. Great every-day-scent. I think this one is a bit similar to D&G The One - not in topnote but after 30 minutes they are a lot alike. Basenote gives a hint of powder - very nice. Bijan V.I.P är en jättehärlig doft som öppnar med plommon och vita blommor - mjuknar ner till amber, musk och vanilj.Precis så söt så att jag klarar av den och jag gillar den skarpt. Suverän varje-dag-doft. Påminner om D&G The One - inte direkt i topp noten men efter 30 minuter så är de ganska lika. Basnoten ger en aning om pudrigt inslag - riktigt najs.

sort of weird like a cross between sour grapefruit or rhubarb, pepper, musk, powdery iris and some florals, mainly an Easter Lily and maybe tiare but not sweet enough, no fruits or vanilla for me but very musky in a white musk way; I have to give it some more wearings since I wanted to hate it when I put it on by I keep sniffing it and going "weird." I have tons of vintages and a bunch of Bijans but this one is a different animal; very soft and close to the skin. In the final drydown this one just comes together. I am sticking with it. Keeper. Also, there must be sandalwood in this. The base is a creamy sandalwood. A tropical fruity fragrance.

The first time I wore this I sprayed it over me a few times... I liked the opening and middle notes, but then the amber hit me like a brick wall. Normally I like amber but it was just too much in this case. Nevertheless, I decided to spray it on -lightly- this morning, and wore it through Sydney's springtime weather today (humid 31C/89F) and it was gorgeous. The amber balanced out with sweet vanilla-plum and tiare, and I was still smelling it in the evening. Thanks to jdokicfan for the swap! :)

Blind buy gone right for a change! The opening smelled floral and I wasn't so sure I was going to like it ...but after about 10 minutes it smelled very good! This one is creamy and sensual as others have suggested. Warm, creamy, spicy, amber and currants in the dry down. From the bottle (which is pretty cool, by the way!) I thought it might be strong, but this is more of a skin scent on me. A GREAT buy at $14 from amazon with free shipping! This is my first Bijan but probably won't be my last.

Goes on mildly harsh and slightly synthetic, but dries down rapidly to something really, really nice. Smells very much like D&G's The One upon dry down. Similar enough that I fear it's redundant for me to have both. Surprising sillage and longevity for the price. I think it's difficult to nail down the genre easily just like The One. (I explain what I mean better in my review of The One re: fragrance families.)

THIS is a strong one! I prefer heavy hitters, I really do. But the black amber is the the strongest I have ever smelled in a perfume. I am going to try it layered with musk to see if I can soften it a little. But the perfume as it is is very strong, not for the under 30 crowd, a like but not a love. If you love Bijan original, it is highly possible this perfume will disappoint you. Happy Perfuming!

Ι guess Bijan's perfumes are just not meant for me. I can see the similarity to the One by D & G. It starts as a burnt rubber or burnt gummi candies to be more precise. After a while the burning scents fades and you have plum. Maybe indeed has a vibe from liquorice candies, but not the nice one! Unfortunately it doesn't evolute more at my skin. It is unique in its own way. I would never make it my signature scent, but I wouldn't make The One either. Well, I will try it back at summer and if I don't change my mind, another gift for my bestie I guess, who loves The One.
