Fiori di Krizia

An absolutely underrated gem for Spring and Summer. Whenever I pull this from the shelf to sample, I am happily impressed. Bright Citrus is perfectly balanced with delicate florals, predominantly Peony & Olive Flower, and a nice, wet leafy/twiggy note. Violet Leaf addds a little zip. This perfume stands out in that it never feels synthetic; the florals in particular are quite realistic. The Musk is of the "sheer, white" type, and does not interfere with the Top or Heart. The Benzoin is minimally dosed as an anchor, and the Vanilla serves only to lend the smallest touch of warmth to the drydown. Surely this was not a cheap perfume to produce. This is a safe scent to gift, since it is almost universally liked in my experience. The price point is absurdly low, so grab some while it's still available. To note, the sprayer mechanism is moody, so be prepared.

The entire perfume profile notes is as follows for this perfume: - Bergamot - Mandarin - Peony - Fresh freesia - Lily of the Valley - Fresh olive flower - Rose - Jasmin - Violet leaf - Magnolia - Honeysuckle - Sandalwood - Benzoe - Vanille - Several types of Musk

Great perfume! Notes a.o.: Bergamot, Mandarin, Peony, Freesia, Rose, Jasmin, Magnolia, Lily of the Valley, Sandelwood, Benzoe, Vanille & Musk.

Fiori di Krizia is sweet, gentle, tender, and close in scent to one of my favorite perfumes, Lagerfeld's Sun Moon and Stars, which I can no longer afford because it has now become too expensive. A 3.4 oz. bottle of Fiori can be found on ebay for about $30 (as opposed to SMS, which goes for over $200 now). Not a bad dupe - yay!

Bought a bottle in Turks and Caicos, and after a few uses, the spray jammed. Was able to get it replaced as a courtesy by a supplier in Canada who had no obligation to, and after a few uses, the same thing happened. Bad design, and no recourse to replace it. wasn't able to use it enough to enjoy any of it.
