Gucci Bloom Parfum

Me and my Sales Associate gushed over how good this one is. Its so freaking sexy. Spicy. Cinnamon-y. But not in a cinnamon sugar type of way it's more like you're holding the actual cinnamon bark. It reminds me of other woody herbal scent but this one is the more sophisticated, rich,elegant, regal version. (Sales associate made this observation-and i agreed!) It has the Gucci Bloom DNA but don't worry , it never takes over the fragrance. Its so tame and that morphs verg quickly into this warm, cacooning scent brought on by the resins and vanilla in the drydown. . . It's very very sexy. At this stage there is resinous and balmy nuisances that i enjoy..i truly appreciate this . Lasting power ill update later it might feel like it's not there but with movement it can be perceived There is a lightness to this despite the heavier notes.. I will be wearing this year round. My S.A and I agree there's a vibe to this. .mysterious, captivating, sensual, luxurious, slightly erotic , black lace and creamy white satin sheets.. *swoon* Edit: lasting power on me is good. Sometimes I'll get noseblind and sometimes I will smell it for the whole day. Imo this is my favorite tuberose fragrance in a good long while and I'm sorta traumatized from that note in general but this is good stuff. Reminds me of grandmother when she was a gorgeous young fashionista in the 70s but in the most majestic way possible. Im into balmy, deeper, darker, sensual notes lately after a love affair with all things frufru lala and gourmand sugary diabetes inducing scents, I appreciate that more designer houses are trying to expand their notes -- I love the peru Balsam in here so much. Amber and vanilla , come on, who can dislike such elegant notes together like this? Nvm everyone has their own yucks and yums This right here?? GIMME.

I really love this flanker and what a redemption from the horrible Intense flanker which was a tooth ache in a bottle. It was just so screechy. This Parfum version has depth and character. Beautiful tropical florals of night blooming jasmine, and tuberose swimming in heady spices, balms and a balsamic vanilla amber that doesn't smell like candy or ice cream. I get a cinnamon and nutmeg vibe here as well. The Peru balsam is absolutely stunning in the dry down. Very sensual and seductive. It reminds me just a bit of Goutal Paris Songes which I own but this has more of a gritty texture but not in a bad way.. I still want this. My husband flipped for it. As always I will search for best price before buying but this baby will be mine. Sexy, tropical nights. Perfect date night fragrance. This is the type of fragrance that makes men drool but you won't smell like food, you will smell sophisticated, sexy and very mysterious. Edit: got my bottle. Full price but Nemain Marcus threw in a lot of fun beauty samples. I will wear this a lot. It's just one of those types of floral vanillas with spice I like and so do most other people. Great flanker and the bottle is beautiful. I really like night blooming jasmine a lot even more than real jasmine (night blooming jasmine isn't a jasmine at all) I would like to see it used more. Edit again: I really like what @JackieM said goths go to the beach their own way. This is Goth at the beach. I'm not usually a beach person myself and this fits my "darker" but still somewhat approachable character.

I think this is going to become my signature scent once the summer wraps up and fall enters the scene. This is decadent! Peppery at the beginning; my nose catches a hint of jasmine which softly and slowly unravels. Mysteriously the jasmine continues to evolve into something even richer and more complex. It fully 'blooms' after a few minutes. The heat from my skin has warmed this up into a full-blown aromatic ecstasy but in an orchestrated way. It is far from being tame. It is rich and luxurious. A hint of leather even though there is nothing to indicate it is present. Lingers for hours... your bedsheets will thank you the next morning. Could see this working on a particular type of man as well. Absolutely leans feminine but there is something quite 'bad bitch' about it that can echo, if only slightly, into masc. Just doused my wrists and neck as I am getting ready to have an engagement at a rather upscale restaurant. I notice myself in the best way possible... this is such a winner, imo, because its DNA does diverge from the original (which is just a little too safe whereas this is...quite scandalous).

I think this is going to take quite a few people by surprise -- it's a BIG departure from the original Bloom! I actually ordered this blind, as a lover of the original Bloom DNA, and Morillas' work in general. I was really surprised and not quite sure what to think when I first sprayed this - it was cinnamon prominent, and I am NOT a cinnamon in fragrance fan!! But that introduction quickly shifted towards deeper, resinous spices - ambery, balsamic notes underscored by heavy jasmine and tuberose. I was really impressed how long this lasted - especially given the rather weak longevity of other bloom flankers, this one is a powerhouse! Now that I'm getting to know Bloom Parfum, it's becoming a big love and one I am REALLY impressed with (and I no longer get 'cinnamon' when I first put this on, thankfully). This is a dark, rich, spicy white floral - the vampy night version of the original friendly girl next door Bloom. Not superfluous at all, but an exciting addition to the Bloom line! Stunning bottle as well.

Bloom Parfum has a spicy, balsamic, and warm aspect that makes it mysterious and beautiful. Even with this balsamic and warm facet, it could be an all-year-round signature fragrance, for both day and night, because it’s not very strong nor does it project much after the first 2 hours, but it has that elegant quality of this type of composition with a more personal sphere, projecting no more than half a meter. It lasts for many hours on the skin, and you catch its scent in waves throughout the day as you move. Its longevity is very good. I bought the small 30 ml. size, but I see myself buying the large one when it runs out, as I really liked it. PD: Now that I've tried this perfume a few more times, I can really notice the night-blooming jasmine and peru balsam more intensely in the dry down. The bottle design is perfect, matching that mysterious vibe :)
