Di Borghese

I have two cuff bracelets, one silver & one gold, containing Borghese solid perfume. Absolutely delightful. Reminds me of RL Safari or MF Epris. The liquid perfume also pleases. This is a winner, but can be expensive on eBay. Good luck to those seeking this lovely lady.

a wonderful example of a vintage chypre; tons of galbanum, a bit of oakmoss without being bitter, very green, hyacinth, musk, sandalwood

OMG this is a wonderful fragrance! I had a bottle of this maybe very early 80s & I loved it. Only one store in the town where I lived at that time carried it, my Jungle Gardenia & Galore. I would make special trips to that store just to get those fragrances. The sales folks in the store were always trying to get me to try the Borghese cosmetics but I was already smitten with Alexandra De Markoff; but I loved this fragrance from Borghese. It is a classic Oriental & embodied everything I want in an Oriental. I remember the classic bottle on my dressing table. It was lovely. I always liked the feel of the bottle in my hand, too. I see it is available on ebay & amazon...had to bookmark this one because I sure would love to have another bottle of this one.

Class all the way. Testing an original vintage EDP I think, no label. Really interesting and different and I love it. It is pricey on ebay. Mine came as part of a lot. It is green and rich and deep and sparkling. Very interesting and unusual. It is quite strong so a dab will do. Pretty swirly bottle of sound quality too. Deep gold colour. Looks like cognac. Definately a European vibe to it also. Smells like a conservatory in an old mansion -in spring with hyacinths around a little ponds, lillies, ferns, old roses, laden with rich spiced candles. This would be a nice wedding perfume as I think it would compliment and not compete with most other flowers.

I never had this one from Borghese. Back in the 70's,a young lady wore this brand on the bus and I had to ask what was it she had on! It was "Andiamo" and there were two other fragrances too, Fiamma and Ecco in this group by Borghese. As a 21 or 22 year old I had never smelled a quality fragrance like this before, I grew up with Avon. As I mentioned, I never tried Di Borghese but Andiamo was a beautifully masterpiece of a woody green scent Fiamma was spicy hot to me as a young woman and Ecco was not your ordinary rose fragrance it was sophisticated, They all spoke "quality" and no one would dare try to guess what you had on, ever!
