BLV Eau d'Ete

i was never *not* going to like this right? :) as a blv girl it is as gorgeous as the others to me. mulan is right, it is very similar to blv II at the start but the mint quickly comes bouncing to the front. i've not had experience of mint in a fragrance before (certainly not knowingly anyway) and this was a little strange initially. it almost made me mouth fizz...i could feel my mouth watering weirdly. after about 15 mins it was just the most beautiful minty tinge to my beloved blv II. on paper i would never have said that would have worked but it does and i am happy to report that, although other reviews are less positive, i love this blv as much as the others. yes it does slip away a little sooner perhaps but it is a 'summer' fragrance and as such, i wouldn't want a 'bang me over the head with a mallet' scent on during the hottest days of the year. pitched perfectly and no disgrace to the blv name....what more can i ask for?

I honestly love this perfume, it's my favorite by Bvlgari. I've tried almost all of their perfumes including the BVL II and BVL Notte, I disliked both of them due to their potency. This perfume on the other hand has quickly become my signature scent. It did take some getting used to, the first day I got it, I became very ill from the smell, however since then, I have gone through three bottles. I am stocking up just incase the perfume is discontinued soon. I would say this perfume falls into the "Fresh-Citrus" category as the lemon and mint are its strongest notes, at least on me. This truly is the perfect fragrance for summer, incredibly fresh and light. 10/10 (For me at least, it lasts forever and is good year round)

The initial blast of this perfume is ICY. It's like sucking on a clear glacier mint and then having a drink of cold water afterwards, it's that cold. Very minty on opening and sharp citrus, can't detect anything else. Unfortunately, longevity is not very good and neither is silage. I would imagine this would be a very refreshing scent to wear on a hot sunny humid day, just like AA Herba Fresca, when you need to cool down BUT for a cold blowy day like today it's a big NO...unless you want to feel like a frozen penguin.

sooo i tried on this perfume today at work and it really did only last a few hours before it disappeared like everyone has stated, but it gives off a nice fresh smell - like a "just had a shower" feeling to it. & yes it does have a watery sort of soapy smell to it but its great for daytime wear specially at a work place with customers. thats a plus side to it. just really guttered it doesnt last long on skin or my clothes :( . 8/10

I really like this one. Made a test today and finally found great perfume from BVL. why not?
