Rose Goldea Blossom Delight

One of Bvlgari's greatest creations of the past ~10 years, a truly beautiful rosey composition that lives up to its name and imagery. Alberto Morillas has refined this scent, and this is, in my opinion, quite easily the best rose-based fragrance in the price range. I think it works wonderfully year-round as a daytime scent, and is wonderful during the day, for all seasons. I think it works wonderfully during summer nights, too. Not usually a big fan of Bvlgari but for this fragrance, I give it absolute top marks, as it makes so many competing fragrances smell a bit dull. This is incredibly beautiful, pretty... very sexy, yet with modesty. The rose is beautiful, and is reminiscent of some very expensive rose notes in niche fragrances. The composition itself is genius, and was executed with absolute mastery. This fragance alone has renewed my interest in Morillas' creations and I can't give him enough credit for what he's managed to do here. I really recommend trying this on the skin, it's something that can easily slot into a large perfume collection and be a "dumb grab", something to wear with a cute outfit. Blossom Delight has a rare characteristic to my nose, which seems like it's both highly seductive and alluring, without being cloying, ostentatious, or seeming like it's "trying too hard". Very difficult to explain, but I'm so happy to have had a chance to experience it. I'm a sucker for Coco Mademoiselle Intense, and I think that if you like CMI, then you may be in love with this fragrance, especially in this price range. Make sure to buy from a reputable seller, I recommend avoiding samplers, used bottles, or unboxed bottles unless they are from a highly trusted source. You really want the real stuff, and the clones don't come anywhere close to matching what this fragrance has on offer. Verdict: Shocked and surprised, as I'm not normally a big Bvlgari fan, but this fragrance is absolutely spot-on. A beautiful fragrance for a beautiful person.

Rose goldea, accented with green and blue highlights. Main theme in three phases: First - topnotes: a fresher goldea rose, enhanced with a tad of tropical green and maybe even green apple. Second - heartnotes: musky freshness intensifies. It reminds me of fresh air and water, this phase one could even call "Un jardin de roses près de la mer" ;) And just then I think "generic fresh musc and rose"... Third - basenotes: Goldea rose in full bloom. Not too sweet, not too fresh, not too heavy. Just right for summer. Missing: the woodnotes and the incense of original Rose Goldea, so it's clearly a summer scent for me. Since I like my summer scents sweet, I find not so much sweetness here - and by the way, not the expected girlyness either. One can call it generic, it is quite in the vein of Chance eau tendre eau de parfum (for example). But this version has something that make me feel happy about this - rare - blind buy (I normally do not make blind purchases). First: The spirit of Rose goldea lingers on, so it's a flanker done right. Second: Morillas did a painting again: this time he used water colours and painted with light, wind and water. Nice. I have nothing that delicate in my collection. And last: How did he do it? After the topnotes - that truly remind me of a green rose blossom in early morning, still closed - the rose nearly vanishes. I thought, it was gone. And then it blooms fully in the base. And that I find a rare thing - clear rosy basenotes. Normally the rose is gone then- but this one just starts to live. Morillas illustrates the picture of "comming to bloom" with a scent. And - for my taste - he delivers. But beware, this is not a "wow" effect perfume, it doesn't scream, it whispers and sings. So if you are looking for a deeper, more oriental rose, try original Rose goldea or look somewhere else.

A beautiful rose scent. To me, it screams "ROSE ROSE ROSE" :D But not a sweet and soft rose unlike chloé, this one is more greenish. If chloé is a fabric softener, rose goldea blossom delight is a soap :D I cannot feel the papaya and amber in it, the most prominent notes are rose, rose leaf, and maybe lily of the valley. The day I tried it was an interestingly hot day in January, and I found it absolutely appropriate for hot/warm weather. I imagine it would be good in the cold as well but I haven't experienced it yet. I can imagine myself wearing rose goldea blossom delight on a sunny winter day with snow still on the ground, and on a romantic summer night with someone special <3 I also think there is something pungent in the fragrance, as some comments say. Especially at the opening, a sharp smell almost like alcohol (but not alcohol) literally hit my face. It's definitely a calmer rose scent on the paper, so I definitely recommend trying it on your skin. I, unfortunately, smelled it on the paper and bought it. :D I don't regret it, I like scents with roses in them. But for this price range, I found the longevity a bit low, as other comments said (and I think this is a little bit of linear scent, not that deep.). If you like rose scent and green and fresh notes, this is a perfume you can love. And lastly, the bottle! She looks absolutely beautiful, it's a bit of a classical design, but I think classics are classics for a reason. :)

I love this fragrance so much! Really the best for me!!! It has a very delicate scent all throughout. Honestly, the papaya smell is not overwhelming at all and it is what gives the fresh and delicate innocent smell. It also smells a lot like apple juice for me like Chanel Chance but a lot more delicate. This scent's rose is not too much as well and is not punchy. It really lives up to its name when it says blossom because that's what it smells like, a blossoming happy rose. It also has a slight sweetness in its smell that is NOTHING like normal sweetness it is the floral kind of sweetness you get from fruits and I think this is what really makes this perfume stand out. Has a powdery finish and is still very fresh and fruity. The scent lasts very long as well I would say it can even last until the very next day but if you spray it on every day it's gonna become your own body odor which is really funny but true. Overall, this perfume is perfect for the young but elegant ones. This is also a perfect Spring to Early Summer perfume. It does well in the heat but it can become too sweet (for me it's VERY addicting for some that are more "mature" not so much). It has good longevity and is actually good all year round but personally, I prefer other scents since it's very hot in my country. PS: For the ultra hot days, I prefer soleil blanc, Dioriviera, or anything by Blanche really.

This perfume represents the roses you get on your debut/bar mitzvah/coming of age. Definitely a spring or even a summer scent. It's very fresh and a little heavy because of the musk which makes it elegant but still light so it doesn't get cloying in warm weather. Definitely a cool afternoon/morning scent. I live in a hot, humid, and ngl, very polluted country and this will get you smelling even after a hectic commute. Hoewever, there is some citrus in this so watch out if you typically have body odor or the likes as this perfume may be your downfall. Or maybe its just because I don't like citrus scents. This perfume costs around 175 USD where I live and some people will definitely find this perfume quite expensive. The smell is pretty average when you compare it to the price, nothing really over-the-top special. With this, its PERFECT for a daily scent, a run to the grocery or a simple afternoon tea delight. Personally, this perfume is amazing and would definitely go for another bottle once I run out. However, this perfume is not a head turner nor is a "SPECIAL" perfume. It's fresh, girly, energetic and overall nice and just right!
