Theorema Esprit d'Ete

This is beautiful , truly stunning ,ive not been lucky enough to get my hands on the original theorema edp and blind bought this version ,I panicked when I read it was lemony I figured bathroom cleaner type Lemon but how wrong I was, its sexy sweet almost edible lemon just at first then calms into jasmine and pink pepper ,I'm not good with notes but they all shine and blend beautifully ! Yummi stuff !!! I have read reviews that say it's not long lasting , maybe it was reformulated as mines fairly old and I think fairly strong, but it's soooo rich and blended perfectly this could easily be in my top 3 perfumes it's just that good ! So since this Summer version d,ete I s amazing ,I wonder how different this is to the original ? Is the stronger theorema edp better even ? 10/10 for the sent 7/ 10 for projection 6/10 for screaming out that your wearing it ! GOT my mucky hands on the EDP and boy is it lovely I did a separate review, I found that this one is very similar but not quite as spicy more fizzy like champagne, very very similar tho, I live them both if I wasn't such a perfume flirt I would stay with Fendi THEOREMA forever .......

Help!!!! Does anyone here have a 100 ml size bottle TOP they want to sell? Maybe u used your bottle and were not thinking to keep it ? If so please email me I desperately need a small gold top for the bottle I bought that hasn't come with one :( By way I think this would be my signature sent if I could stick to one perfume , but I can't so it gets used a lot it's stunning and smells amazing and expensive hunni stuff!!!

stunning! this fragrance blew my mind when I was 14 and tried a friends mothers bottle. I had known only floral/aquatic perfumes then to smell this which is all light spice, creamy but clear and very delicious. It reminds me of glittering gold, success, luxury and I only wear it occasionally but any season it can suit

This is a gorgeous warm weather fragrance! The citrus notes are bright and uplifting, but they quickly fade to reveal a sweet, powdery vanilla scent. It lasts for hours on my skin and I get compliments every time I wear it.

Wonderful smell, but the lovely fragrance disappears just after a few minutes. It's a pity that it hasn't got a longer staying power. Bought this one as I could not find a bottle of the original Theorema.

Love love love this perfume. Found it in a large and well stocked perfumerie in Florence, Italy. Smells a lot like Rihanna - Rouge and Marc Jacobs - Decadence. They don't make perfumes likes this anymore!

Another wonderful scent from Fendi! I wear this at least once a week.

Drat! I bid on this thinking it was the OG Theorema, shocked that the opening bid was so low and no one was bidding. It wasn't until I made my bid and won that I realize I won this one. Well, many have said it reminds them of the original, so I am hopeful I will enjoy it. Will review once received. Lesson learned is make sure you know what you are bidding on as well as the location of the seller! ________ Received, and while not what I thought I had ordered and what I was hoping for, it's still a very nice, versatile fragrance that can virtually be worm year long. Although it contains no ylang, it immediately made me think of Aqua Allegoria Ylang Vanilla, which always seemed like an outlier amongst the other AAs since it is much heavier and also suitable year round unlike the light, airy warm weather scents typical of the line. This vanilla and citrus combo in this fragrance definitely has a similarity to the famous Guerlainade. I occasionally get whiffs of a phantom incense of some sort, which I can not explain given the notes, but could be the combo of spices, amber, and sandalwood. One thing I enjoy very much about the fragrance is the use of tangerine in the opening, which doesn't seem to be used often and provides a bit of novelty. It sticks around for a while too! The longevity, projection, and silage are all problematic. It could be due to nose fatigue on my part as I've only tried it once, but the consensus seems to indicate that it's the fragrance, not my sense of smell. Would I go out of my way to purchase this if I had been familiar with it beforehand? Probably not, but now that I own it, I will definitely wear and enjoy it. A solid Like!

I have never tried Theorema and never heard of this before I got a sample in a swap, so I can't compare this one to the original. But Esprit d'Ete reminds me of a cross between a Shalimar flanker and something from the Hermés Merveilles line, though not quite as refined as those. I think it's because it doesn't have the magic Guerlinade or the airiness that most Hermés fragrances possess. This is a warm, resinous scent with citrus notes, mainly orange, cinnamon and vanilla. It's sweet and fizzy and makes me think of cola or cola gummy candy, but with a bitter addition that makes it wearable as a perfume. Amber scents with orange sometimes do that to me. This is definitely not a pure summer scent, despite the name it would work just as well in cold weather. I like this, but I don't think it's worth hunting down when other houses offer similar, even better fragrances that are also widely available. Especially because my sample smelled a little alcoholic in the first seconds I wouldn't risk getting a turned bottle.

This is a bright warm citrus creamy sour kind off candy on my skin.I expected this to be a bit more mature and special. slightly more spicy. but this is a summer gourmand almost. sweet lemon pie like somebody mentioned. and that is spot on in my opinion aswell. Very one dimentional not much is happening during the time i wear it. It shure is pretty and beautiful. but i hoped for a bit more depth and spicy warmth.. (It should be sayed that i initialy looked for the original because off its resamblense to Nina Ricci Belle de minuit. hoping to explore the same thrill.. I ended up so far with this version) This is absolutly apropriet for summer times . as it has that sunny bright feal to it. On my skin this lasts a long long time . So i guess cemestry has alot to do with the lasting ability on this one aswell

As someone who very much appreciates Fendi THEOREMA, I was delighted when awesomeness sent along an atomizer of THEOREMA ESPRIT D'ETE, which is an apt flanker to its namesake. This composition, too, opens with citrus, but has pared down the original note list and also combined them in different proportions. The rich, resinousness benzoin and amber so central to THEOREMA serve here more as complements, to embellish the blooming jasmine. Of course, the inevitable consequence of reducing the basenotes is lighter sillage and less longevity. But these features do make ESPRIT D'ETE wearable in hot weather, where THEOREMA arguably is not. I'd love to have a bottle of this for summertime. (-:

Take original Theorema, remove most of the spice and flowers, tone down the vanilla, tone the oakmoss way, way down, ADD MUSK, emphasize the citrus, et voila! Esprit d'Ete! Starts out with a familiar Juicy Fruit gum accord, but soon settles into a citrus-musk with just enough vanilla cream to keep it luscious. If it were released today, it would do very well, IMO. It's not challenging in any way, unlike original Theorema and its insistence on in-your-face spice and oakmoss (which I love!)

Very nice smell on opening, I detect lemon cheesecake with gingernut biscuit base, yes I know these are not listed as notes but that's what I get. Unfortunately longevity is very poor and so is silage, otherwise I would buy it straight away. Pity as it is a very promising scent, perhaps it would work better layered????

These theoremas are weird in a Shalimar way but without the complexity of Shalimar or the Guerlain koolaid I love. This one is light, does not last and is a blast of citrus and vanilla.

My first encounter with a Theorema flanker is this Esprit ete version. I have to admit I really really like it.the opening burst tries to be fresh but never manages on me. Its a inital smell of fudge, maybe some little dry bergamot and, old school chalk !. It turnes very quickly into a fudge like soft smell, that reminds me of Si Lolita that I also am very fond of. This is more toned down, and I can only tell it must be the lesser notes in this one. I dont prefer one befor the other but maybe Si Lolita is more earthy, a tiny bit stronger and dryer, where esprit ete is smoother, sweeter but also softer. I swapped Si Lolita when found this, cause I think Si Lolita will be easier to find if I need it again.. The Jasmine is hard to detect, as it is more of a soft fudge, earth kind of smell. I could have wished it to be more dimensional, but its not at all on me. Very easy and pleasant to wear and I would say it suits among my top twenty, nice to grab, as for today when first snow sat on the ground when I woke up. I know it supposed to be the summer version...yes - but this yummy little fellow works all year round.

I got to try this due to a very generous Fragrantican and here's my opinion on it: It opens quite synthetic with quite a contradicting accord, I almost thought it was leather and citrus, because the dominant note was quite sharp and masculine, with a very tart vibe on top; unfortunately I still can't tell what the first one really was. Anyhow, it then proceeds to warm up on the skin and after the citruses are gone, I mainly perceive the vanilla. My skin doesn't emphasize the floral side in the slightest. All in all, it's a nice fragrance, although a little bit generic, it stays close to the / my skin and it lasts moderately. It's not a heavy vanilla and hence I find it wearable even in warmer (but not warmest) temperatures.

Pretty, but not a patch on the original. As a flanker goes, it's a good one. It keeps true to elements of the original so as to be recognisable, yet fixes them up in a light, lemony, voile dress for summertime. The interest for me is in the citrus-resin-oakmoss combo which creates a very harmonious & balanced scent: warm & light, yet rich, dry & earthy. Sadly, its longevity & sillage is minimal - it progresses quickly towards its basenotes & leaves me with a soapy suede handbag note. Great if you find Theorema just too much...but those who love the original may find Ete a little too "diet Theorema".

Very warm, very citrussy (more zesty, fresh tangerine rather than the candied fruit in Theorema), with some of the distinctive creaminess of Theorema but less sweet and less spicy. It's toned-down quality makes it less interesting than Theorema, but nice in its own right. Theorema is a striking, rich perfume that calls attention to itself, while Esprit in its drydown is a warm, creamy skin scent -- truly "you but better." It seems far more appealing on a chilly day than in the heat of summer. Maybe "spirit of summer" is meant to tell us what it evokes, not when to wear it!

I need this!! This is the type of scent not made anymore!! Some citrus to open Cinnamon AND spices a touch of white floral ok then vanilla amber yes! It sounds like my beloved alien fusion extra ... sigh if anyone is selling a small bottle or decant pls DM me!! 💕 💕

Vanilla and Grapefruit? Not sure why I get those main notes, but they make for a lovely combination here. It's almost a vanilla incense washed in liquid citrus. Very sheer,light and pretty and definitely a spirit of summer.
