Jasmin Noir Eau de Toilette

Womanly, reserved but inviting, not properly innocent but someway pure, a whispering beauty which sometimes I feel so close to my deepest emotions to the point I think to it as a sort of "private" signature. Jasmin Noir EDT may not have the sultry and kind of dramatic thickness of the original EDP (which I nonetheless love), where one can almost sense the presence of hundreds jasmine flowers almost melting with the humid air on a summer night, neither it diffuses a dark and voluptuous sensuality around the wearer like Jasmin Noir does.. but, in a certain way, it's even more sensuous than the EDP because it radiates an aura of luxury and skin warmth thanks to the delicate and watery texture of lotus that soon leaves way to the white floral accord in the heart (mostly jasmine and probably a thin gardenia), finally fading into a smooth and slightly creamy almondy-musky base. A part from my very personal reasons of appreciation (it brings lovely memories of the past summer..), I'd recommend Jasmin Noir EDT for what it is: a pleasant, unoffending white floral with a discrete sillage, very suitable for work and formal occasions in my opinion, in any seasons, with that classy vibe that's typical of Bvlgari creations. I have a lovely purse spray of this fragrance (10 ml) which I bought in San Marino Republic, so I don't mind carry it in my bag for needed reapplying.. but I have to highly warn everyone who's not familiar with this EDT because really it has a mediocre longevity and a veeeeeery light projection, as many members said before. Unfortunately this seems to be a common issue with some Bvlgari fragrances, that otherwise would definitely be worth their price.. so, for those who like the scent but look for "more" (me included) simply get the EDP. :) UPDATE: I wore Jasmin Noir EDT two days ago to office and it still clearly lingers on the shirt I'm wearing today, so much that this morning I kept asking myself where this wonderful nutty, creamy, someway bright scent was coming from.. if it lasted on skin as much as it lasts on clothes this would be my signature for work. Too bad..

I finally got this one (the EDT) after owning JN EDP for awhile as well as the two flankers (L'Elixir and L'Essence). Very interesting. It definitely has the same DNA as JN EDP, but is lighter in concentration; as well, the floral accords in the heart are increased slightly, and I do notice the addition of the lotus, giving this a "fresher" and "greener" feel than the EDP. I think this would be perfect for either summer evenings or cool season days, as it still retains the base-heavy feel of the EDP- but beautifully toned-down, making this rendition quite versatile! As well, the projection is soft on me, so there is very-little fear of clearing out a room as there is with overapplication of the EDP. Longevity was excellent on me- still noticeable on my skin at the 15-hour mark... though by this time, it is mostly the big musk molecules to which 42% of the population is anosmic- which might explain the differences in longevity-perception by different reviewers. EDIT: Is detectable as a skin-scent beyond the 24-hour mark... (musk with almonds and woods) EDIT: There's another flower in the heart that I don't detect in any of the other flankers, and I finally identified it today: hyacinth. The words from my lips on this third wearing: this is stunningly gorgeous!

I have been wanting Jasmin Noir for a long time. Been testing it, and loving it. Then I found Jasmin Noir EDT 30 ml at sales for a very good price. Didn't try it, and thought that it is similar to Jasmin Noir EDP. It is more watered down version, doesn't last very long. More suitable for office or is wearable on hot summer days. EDP is more goth and fall/winter. I love this EDT version, but still want EDP. This EDT is not very 'noir', like Chanel Coco Noir is not very 'noir' too. These two remind each other slightly. I also have Mon Jasmin Noir EDP, which I find too flowery.

One of the most interesting female fragrances I had the pleasure to sniff for a considerable long time. As suggested by the style it is indeed mysterious and dark, something for the Poison-wearer, though the scent as such is totally different. It has a fascinating untertone, that smells almost like something forbidden. Having it tested it several time now, it seems as if the sweeter overtones appear only by chance. Girls or women with a fondness for gothic styles should watch out for this. All others should look for something else. ****

I had the edp version of this years ago and loved it. I found this version in TJ Maxx for cheap so I grabbed it. I think I almost love this more. Its lighter and more floral. The edp, to me, had more spice and a stronger scent. The edt fades so quickly but I just keep re-spraying. This is a sweet, slightly dirty, jasmine and soft musk and a sweet woody dry down. This is only a little more than a skin scent but I don't mind walking around smelling my arm :) I cannot get enough of this scent.
