Bruno Banani Woman

This one is a gem; I am not sure as to the olfactive group as for some reason Woman smells more like chypre fruity juice. It is, no doubt, sophisticated fragrance, far from being a common fruity lollipop type of fragrance. Woman is complex, rich and perfect for evening for two or a formal work meeting. I don't find it as musky as most of you do, I can smell freesia, waterlily and peach most, with musky note kicking in only after 4 hours. Woman is the kind of fragrance you want to keep to yourself like a secret and there is a good reason to do so; it is inexpensive yet it smells expensive. It gets me compliments every now and then mainly from men. Woman by Bruno Banani will certainly stay with me for a long time. Well worth trying if you wish to styay clear from sickly sweet cloying fragrances and want to get to know this sophisticated fruity gem.

When I was younger, I wore this every day. I don't use it that much because I got so many perfumes by now, but I still like it very much. I was really wondering about the flowers which should be in it? This is another perfume where I can't find any special note I could describe, but usually I hate floral scents and that's why I can't believe it. This perfume is def. the best of Bruno Banani <3

i love this one, it's fresh and fun, and sweet in a fruity way but not too much, with a hint of citrus white flower mix. Perfection! Reminds me a bit on preteen girls who might be wearing it, or similar perfumes, but it's a perfect day to day perfume, and slightly invisble also until someone asks - are you wearing a perfume? Then it's all over the place literally

This has been my signature frag since 2003. It's hard to describe how intoxicating it works on me. I love it's body lotion. Lily of the walley is my favorite flower and Thierry just nailed it! It's a 24/7 parfume. I buy it everytime I'm in Berlin and I love it's price.

I know it sounds weird, but to me it is a scent of fire. It smells like flames. Not burning wood, not fireplace, but fire itself. Hot, bright, loud and dangerous. I really cannot compare it to any other fragrance out there. Interesting and definitely unique.

At first, it smelled a little leathery maybe. To me, it smelled a bit too serious and businesslike in the beginning. First time I put it on. Later on, it was irresistibly sweet and sexy, without being too light along the way. I absolutely love it.

super sexy and longlasting but cheap.

A blast from the past! A friend of mine wore this during our teenage years (early 2000s) and it was pretty omni-present since Gucci's Rush was very hyped back then but also pricey. It is definitely related to Rush but it also reminds me of Nina Ricci's Deci Dela, which was launched in 1994 and gifted to me by my mom. Maybe Rush was inspired by Deci Dela? :) Bruno Banani Woman is a soft, musky peach with an underlying aromatic but lotion-like vibe. I think spraying sparingly does the trick (maybe once in the nape of your neck and one walk-through spray) and avoids this from becoming overbearing. I actually think this is quite laid-back and sophisticated, musk lovers should definitely check this one out. Try it, don't look at the bottle and don't let previous associations hold you back. You might be in for a pleasant surprise! Sillage & longevity are fine for an EDT.

I wear Bruno Banani Woman only because it’s very similar to Gucci Rush. With many new «I Want» I can’t afford original Rush. So I found Bruno Banani Woman for very small price. They have the same composition «freesia+peach» and the same effect of sweet plastic. It’s the smell of Barbie doll, pleasant and unnatural. I got a lot of compliments from friends, and staying power is not bad.

This one was a nice surprise. It is soft, fruity, young and feminine, with powerful sillage but unfortunately bad longevity. I think it is a nice option for someone looking for a fruity perfume that is not syrupy. It is a good choice for spring and summer. Thumbs up.

Smells like teenage angst, Tokio Hotel, Monroe piercings and being happy for the last time. Very nostalgic scent. My sister and her old friend used this scent religiously. Reminds me of begging her for her attention and for her to show me her music. Good stuff.

It's basically musk, freesia and peach! It's a major blast from the past for me. My roommate at college loved Gucci Rush and Rush II, they are all sister scents. We used to trade perfume bottles all the time and wear each other's scents.

This i a good dupe for Gucci rush. The first time someone wore the Gucci one, I was like "Are you wearing Bruno Banani?" Really! I like it. It's sweet and warm.

A new flanker is out - in a yellow bottle. It is a perfect dupe for My Way. Please Fragrantica, take note!!!

A Very good fresh perfume for young girls. I had it several years ago and I really loved it.

Smells exactly like Gucci Rush but lacks the enormous performance.

So I picked up a perfume pen of this for 3 euro's, very cheap. I figured it was perfect for taking it on the plane with me as it's more of a balm and it doesn't come in a glass bottle. Unfortunately I'm not crazy about the scent. The musk overpowers from the moment I apply it. It's incredibly strong, it almost chokes me out when I wear it. I can also smell the lily-of-the-valley, which is a note I tend to dislike. I get no peach, vanilla, orange or water lily. I top it with other scents now to tone the lily-of-the-valley and the musk down, I have found citrus scents work well. Sillage and staying power are okay. This worn on its own is barely a like for me though.

I used this a lot when I was a teenager and I liked it a lot then. I haven't smelled it in a while but the last time I smelled it it was kinda underwhelming. Plus I connect this perfume to some shitty stuff that happened to me so I won't ever get it again.

A generic musky peach, young and inoffensive. Synthetic. Great for the price.

This pink bottle lives on my shelf for several years already, but the smell hasn't changed at all. It's very strong, musky, overpowering sometimes. It's definetly very sweet for my nose. I detective some orange notes in it, and also I can smell lily-of-the-valley and vanilla. I think that this smell is not for everyday using, it was created for special occasions, for evenings and long dresses. I personally think that the best season for using it is winter. It lasts very long time and people will certainly notice it.
