Donna

I have really learned to love this on! It was a blind buy and first I was a bit disapointed with it. Liked it but nothing else. I had problems even smelling it but when I realised I can spray more then once... (silly me)... The scent it self is first very fruity with litchi and some berries. Then it gets softer, but stil keeps hints of fruit with it. The base is soft, warm and sweet. Very pretty, cozy, comfortable, easy and safe fragrance. Staying power is quite weak, just a couple of hours. It doesn`t stay in my clothes either. Suitable for all ages. I like to use this daytime year around. Totally agree with Elumina and Aeternitas!

Wow, I really like this fragrance! It is fruity, floral and comforting. I can smell some similarities to "Laura", but this is more feminine and natural. It feels fresh in the beginning, but then it becomes more warm and cozy. So pleasant to my nose, like a gentle hug in a balmy summer night. I only wish it would last longer for EDP, as it lasts only for about 4 hours. I also do totally agree with "Aeternitas" review about the bottle and concept. One of the bests by Laura Biagiotti! Would always purchase this again.

Yet another case of a bargain blind buy, that extremely mismatches my skin chemistry. I sprayed it on about three hours ago and now the smell reminds me of the mens corner in the fitness center in which the air conditioning doesn ́t work properly. Quite disgusting, I think it must be the musk-cedar-sandalwood combination plus me. Never again:/

"How ordinary..." (voice of Lili Von Shtüpp from Blazing Saddles) This is almost identical to Dior Dior Addict Shine, which was not an earth shattering creation to begin with. Yes, it's inoffensive, but so-o-o boring: undetectable white flowers, raspberry and a touch of cedar. Will pass on this one...

This is too sweety girlish for me.

I've had this on my test list for a while now and I have been in love with the bottle since I first saw it here. I was reluctant to blind buy this one because of the pepper (flashbacks to Tommy Hilfigers Dreaming which smalls gorgeous at first then slaps you in the face with pepper). But, with my birthday coming up I thought "why not?". I received it today and was a bit shocked by the bottle, having never seen it in real life, I guess I was expecting two faces like in the picture but only one side has the face and the other side is flat. When you hold it in your hand it's a disappointment, but when you put the bottle on a shelf it becomes a revelation! The face reflects off the flat surface - very clever! As for the perfume, I would say it is rather nice. Inoffensive - like something I might wear to work. The florals are lovely and then the pepper develops a little, just enough to make it a little bit interesting without being overbearing. Wait a while longer and the pepper fades leaving a musky sandalwood base which stays close to the skin. Not a regretful buy, but not destined to be a favourite either.

"Donna" (Italian for: Woman) opens up with a heady floral mix of peach blossom, orchid and a faint yet stubborn trail of jasmine. Quickly followed by a musky pepper note that gives it a kick! A hint of litchi or currants(?) seem apparent at times. The dry down settles on-top of warm sandalwood and cedar notes that make it sultry without that it's too heavy. Silage is: "I am moving and smelling something pretty!". Longevity is 4+ hours. A fruity floral that is not girly but mature without that it is boring. A classic in the making in a pretty bottle. For day wear or office, or just because your chemistry and nose say: "YUM!".

There is definitely litchi in the beginning of this perfume with peach blossom. I love the litchi in this! Donna is an elegant, sophisticated fruity floral for the summer. It's like a fruity floral for those young women who are mature and know what they want, whereas most fruity florals on the market now are too girly and cutesy. In mid-dry down, you can still smell the litchi and then the white pepper. At last, the musk begins to unfold as well as the wheat note. It's a beautiful perfume. The concept is great, too; the bottle, the reflections, etc. Very nice!

In the beginning: peach blossom all the way. Then it becomes a calm floral scent. It's not groundbreaking, nor special - but it has a somewhat nostalgic feel. Nostalgic Spring would be an appropriate name for it. Longevity is 3-4 hours.

Buttery coconut mango. Cocoa butter. Comfortable yet sexy. Bronzed skin. A tad reminiscent of the 80s.
