Omnia Green Jade

I came relatively late to the Omnia party - after this flanker had already been discontinued, and I've been pursuing it for a while now.I strongly like all of the Omnia line (other than Paraiba) and love several of them. Therefore I was confident that I would at least like Green Jade, especially since the notes seemed safe to me and reviewers avowed its resemblance to Crystalline and Prada's Iris both of which I have and enjoy. My first attempt at purchasing Green Jade was a failure but at the same time a learning experience in how to distinguish fake from genuine perfume.Undaunted and somewhat obsessed by now with obtaining the 'real thing', I splurged on a tester from Ebay that seemed authentic and I'm pretty confident that what I received indeed is genuine. So, I've been wearing Green Jade now every day for the past week. My first whiff of this scent was disappointing. The pistachio note seemed to dominate the entire composition through the dry down and I wasn't sure that I liked it all that much. I would have preferred the citrus or green notes to be more dominant.As the scent dried down I did manage to discern the woody base notes which are lovely to my nose. Unfortunately they are very faint and I have to work hard to sense their presence. As I said - I've been wearing this daily and overall the fragrance has grown on me and I can now discern more notes, including those that 'make the fragrance' for me. I've also come to appreciate the pistachio and even like it. All said, however, Omnia Green Jade remains a skin scent for me - a very subtle and quiet one - and in that I am disappointed. I am an undersprayer - I normally wear 2 sprays of most scents - but I have to wear 4 sprays of this in order to be able to smell it on myself. I know that other reviewers warned of this, but almost all the Omnias come with these warnings of poor sillage and longevity and yet somehow on me they all have presence and very good longevity. Turns out that Green Jade is the exception. Edit - 14/9/20 Just wanted to add that Jade has been demonstrating the same 'chameleon' like quality that I get from some of the other Omnias, especially Crystalline and Coral. It really does smell different each time I wear it or smell it on someone else. Yesterday I was 100% convinced my DD was wearing Prada's Iris when she came downstairs but she was wearing Jade! The resemblance is always there but usually much more in the background. Sometimes the pistachio nutty note predominates and sometimes it's the woody notes. This quality is actually something that I love about the Omnias in general. It keeps them from being boring: they keep you guessing...

10 months ago I wrote here asking if I could get even a sample of this. Is there an article that explains the business logic behind the "discontinue" of extraordinary scents? Was the reality so different from the wishes of people writing here? Anyway, recently I got a full 65 ml bottle from the eBay. Expensive but some sell it even twice more expensive than I got it. It was worth waiting. This is the 7th of Omnia series that I have now. It is quite what I expected (say 75%) when I imagined the mindblowing greenery of Bvlgari's Mon Jasmin Noir L'Eau Exquise. I found Green Jade being similar to Crystalline, my favourite of this line, and this mostly because of the prominent pear note. I had to spray them on two different places at the same time to verify that they really are different and they are. By the information above I read that GJ was published after Crystalline, maybe that's why they are somewhat similar. But peony, jasmine and woodsy notes -- where? There are many peonies out there, I've smelt tens of them in our botanical garden so who knows which one. Jasmine -- not detected by my nose but it would've been a remarkable addition if I would smell it. Pistachio -- maybe, but that nut has so little smell so if that's here then I would say by imagination rather (or I just haven't eaten pistachios recently enough to remember or detect their smell). Green notes -- there is something and that something is essential that makes it so good but that green happens to be sweet kind and I don't know what it is, maybe some sort of peony or pistachio? GJ is now another favourite of mine in this series, this in addition to Crystalline although I like them all anyway.

Second review to add that I was previously hesitant to say that this is similar to Prada Infusion D'iris edp even though I could see why people were saying it. Then today I was confused as to why my skin smelled like Green Jade. Forgetting altogether what I had sprayed this morning, I was confident it wasn't Green Jade. Then I remembered I wore Prada Infusion d'iris edp after my shower.... They really do smell a lot alike in the drydown, just not so much in the opening as Green Jade has that distinct Omnia Crystalline cleanness. But once it dries down, it warms much like Prada does. I believe the pistachio & woods in this behaves in a similar way as benzoin and galbanum does in Prada. They aren't dupes of course, but so similar my brain was fully tricked, and I own both and wear both frequently. Green Jade does not smell like Infusion D'iris EDT, however. I'm surprised to see it so highly voted as similar to the EDT because that is such a different fragrance the edp in my opinion. All this to say, if you were to layer Omnia Crystalline over top of Infusion d'iris edp I'd be shocked if the outcome wasn't a dead ringer for Green Jade. If you can't get this, try that combo!

Feels like inside me waking up again a long-forgotten love for BVLGARI. For a long time I looked for a daytime fragrance for the spring or summer, and already despairing suddenly remembered about Omnia Green Jade, which was presented to me in November. Unpacked, put them... Oh God, how beautiful it is in the opening and at the end. It's such a gentle, light, a little Pre-Powdered, with hints of green notes, which do not allow him to become suffocating. After full disclosure, it smells pistachio-wood powder, which envelops you as a veil. And jasmine ... I had a jasmine before, but I'm not yet met any one like this one. It is like a diamond with high quality squared edges. It is not like other jasmine perfume, it is extravagant and extraordinary. It has his own signature style. I recognize it in a million. As for his persistence, It kept it on the body of 12-15 hours, on the hair - all of two days, and even more. BVLGARI embodies glamor and luxury of the radiance of precious stones. Omnia Green Jade is the cleanest-cut diamond, among their perfume. How could it be otherwise...

Omnia Green Jade was my first Bvlgari parfum purchase. When I worked my last desk job, my boss and her office constantly smelt like Bvlgari Pour Femme, and it was overwhelming to say the least. I found myself shying away from the Bvlgari brand of fragrances due to that singular experience. I'm so glad I changed my mind. Bvlgari Omnia Green Jade was the first perfume I purchased blind. When I read the notes and found out it had been discontinued, I knew I had to experience this olfactory scoop of pistachio gelato for myself. At first spray, the scent glitters with freshly cracked pistachio, pear blossom and peony. Green Jade's development into a woody, musky softness makes it wearable daily. Hours later ::sniffs wrist::, and it smells of creamy, nutty pistachio. This scent wears very differently in the wintertime. The musky nuttiness prevails during the colder months, and in the summer, the soapy florals dominate. Because of Omnia Green Jade, I've promised myself to explore all of the Omnia line.

Oh so many of us are perplexed as to why Bvlgari would discontinue such a green beauty. Why ??? I discovered Green Jade in a chemist in 2013 in the middle of summer. It was like walking through a cool veil of sweet green mist. Beautifully Zen. So uplifting. I went straight back to the chemist that same afternoon and purchased two more bottles as it was love at first sight. I sprayed this weird green and silver bottle (I actually like the shape) with complete abandon and gave one to my mum for her birthday. That meant one bottle left but I wasn't worried until that dreaded word 'discontinued' showed up. What ?? Noooo....why...whah !!! Not again. Bugger :( EDIT: I haven't cracked the cellophane on my one last box yet. I just look at it and think should I or shouldnt I. Whats worse is I don't think my mum was all that into her bottle. I should have known since she wears YSL Opium edp almost exclusively. But it was a gift of love so Im glad I did also.

When it first hit the shelves this spring, it didn't really hit me, although I'm a big fan of the whole Omnia line by Bulgari. To my disappointment, I just found it very soapy, just a clean green fragrance not worth buying. During a holiday I bought the travel collection including purse spray of Omnia Amethiste and Omnia Crystalline that I already knew and had in my collection, and Omnia Green Jade. Well, surprisingly I found it much more peculiar than what I first thought! I've been wearing it for a few days now and I really like it. To me it's almond, it's mint, it's fresh and gentle, perfect for office and summer. I wouldn't say it's a copy of any other fragrance of Omnia Line but it's clear it belongs to the same family. On my skin the pistachio, which I think is the dominant note here, turns into a fresh and sweet almond, and it all ends up with a unique mix of fresh ingredients with long lasting power.

This is lovely. Lovelier than I remember. I can say it smells like the time it was released, 2010-ish, which was an exciting time for me. I'm very happy to have it back in my life. It's a creamy, warm floral with green notes but not green in the usual sense. Bvlgari likes to use this kind of green accord in their perfumes. A nondescript greenness which I enjoy. It gives the perfume green freshness that's not grassy or bitter. With that, Green jade is softly floral. I would not think pistachio, but it's got some milky warmth that is reminiscent of almond, or almond blossom. The scent is perfect for summer and lasts quite long, too. I love this and Amethyste about equally. Amethyste for summer evenings or after a shower, and Green Jade for going to the river and hot days in general. Both stand out in the Omnia line as special and unique.

I absolutely love this fragrance, and still own a 2 bottles, one is 1/2 full and the other 3/4 full, why did I start a second bottle? Because back then I didn't care and bathed in the juice! But since I found it was discontinued- no more :/ It was my first Bvlgari fragrance and still my favorite of their line. Crisp and woodsy at first with it becoming very comfy and clean with a slight sweetness coming from the Pistachio (?), but not just pistachio, but pistachio ice cream. I find it lasts on me all day. Very clean, elegant and feminine, I wouldn't like this on a man at all. I'm glad I still have this as the price on ebay is insane! Why would they discontinue such a popular fragrance? The world may never know :)

A very promising candidate to become my next signature fragrance. I've been craving for this for so long, and now I couldn't resist buying it. Although it's very hot right now, and people say it's a typical spring fragrance, I use it every other day, and love it. Of course, the pistachio note is most attractive for me as well, but I also adore the green mandarin, the pear blossom,and some of the rest. The name "green jade" fits the scent perfectly. Update: It did become my new signature, since in the long run I found it more pleasant than Omnia Coral. It is elegant and creamy, light, fresh and powdery at the same time - something I've never experienced with other fragrances.

Ok so I hesitated with this review until I wore the fragrance for the whole 24 hours. First things first, I love the bottle design and I love the colour of the bottle. The scent in itself is interesting, I get the creamy pistachio (like pistachio ice cream) and some faint floral stuff. I love the pistachio scent very much in fact but the trouble is the fragrance has poor longevity, yes I know it's eau de toilette formulation but even so...I had to put lots and lots on for it to last 6 hours on my skin. This would be definitely suited for a hot sunny day on the beech. Despite the poor longevity I would consider buying a full size once in a while as it is unusual and pleasant.

I can't understand how this has been discontinued. This is the prettiest green floral I've tried, and I'm not a fan of green or floral fragrances. Somehow this scent presents itself as soft, smooth, pretty and fresh without any sharp edges or notes that screech and give me a headache. This is a lovely summer scent, or a scent for a cold day when you're looking for a little taste of summer. I am a big Bvlgari fan - there have been some bombs, but this one is beautiful. Moderate longevity and projection - better in warmer months. Not crazy about this style of bottle - bit cheap and nasty, and not easy to spray. Other than that - a truly well blended and well crafted floral.

Back again, after almost a month. This really is growing on me. I think it's clean and "safe" while still being different. Damn, if I had more money to hunt purchase some full size bottles (i always fall for discontinued fragrances) I feel like this could have been a signature scent for me. It starts out a little soapy and minerally, but almost fatty like an aldehyde. It seamlessly transitions into linens that were line-dried out in the middle of a green meadow or valley. Green and clean, but the pistachio really gives it the little "je ne sais quoi" that would make me want to chase this fragrance for hours if I didn't already know what that note was.

i had the chance to test it as i had a sample of this. i used to put it after the shower and it gave me a such a great feeling of cleaniness and freshness while mixing up with the smell of my shampoo i think the combination of pistachios and green note here is absolutely amazing. my ant who doesnt care about perfume said that i smell nice and this is coming from someone who got rid of chanel number 5 in the past coz she didnt like it so that made me realise that she was into green scents. such a shame that they discontinued this little gem never thought pistachios would smell like this on my skin

I'm in love. I'm on my 3rd bottle of it in the last 5 years or so and considering I have about 40 perfumes in rotation, that's saying a lot. However, now they have discontinued it and so what is left in my bottle is very precious since the price has skyrocketed. I cannot believe they would discontinue something so unique and wonderful and I hate this unreliability from Bvlgari. Maybe they bring it back? I love the fresh woodsy clean floral and although the longevity is only a couple hours, it's worth the re-spray.

nostalgia hits big with this one. it was my first ever grown up scent gifted to me by my bf cca 2009. a fleeting green fragrance, oh so delicate, feminine and fluffy. what makes this unforgettable to me is the memory tho, not the aroma. there are plenty of other greens out there far better than this. i ll list aqua di gioia, kenzo eau d ete,... chanel 19 of course, pistil. the latters being more mature and refined, pistil even slightly animalic. aqua dg is a good comparison imo. dont bother with ebay and dupes

I have never smelled pistaschio in a perfume before but it smells wonderful. At first it is very woodsy, fresh, and crisp; almost like the crystalline version. After about 5 minutes though, I start to smell something richer and more unique. The best way I can describe it is like the pistachio gelato they make back in my hometown on a beautiful summer's day. The Omnia line is just lovely. I like them all so far; they all have a similar quality but are beautiful in their own unique way at the same time.

One of my favorite. Absolutely georgeous. Beautiful orange at first, then lovely powdery pistachios and woodsy notes that makes your mood felt very cozy and relaxed. I prefer this than omnia crystalline. Imho crystalline has a sharp floral notes - i can't smell any floral notes in green jade. I imagine crystalline is one of the triplets that's more energetic, carefree, while green jade is her sister that's graceful, soft spoken and warm hearted (I haven't had Amethyst, so I can't compare it)

Delicate velvety fragrance, with a greenish launch, which is not stentorian altogether,, crisp, rather softly caressing. His flowery not stinging, but lingers about it as a breeze quoting a spring using. On not expressed one deep fragrance liking it was formed for him. There is not lust in him, but the harmonic cleanness fragrance gives a being assuaged delight lasting long with his powdered. Onto daily costume suitable, Bvlgari was my beloved perfume following tickets faithfully.

I only JUST got a tiny sample of this, so I haven't really given it a thorough chance yet. I don't know what to make of it yet. On one hand it was almost TOO clean and mineral. It felt like I was actually smelling a cool, tumbled stone, with an earthy metallic smell. But then the jasmine, peony and musk seem to overpower the pistachio and it gives me an "old lady" vibe. It *did* start turning slightly sweeter after a few hours, so, like I said. I need to give it a few more tries.
