Fiamma

Fiamma is a truly delicious scent. It evolves beautifully on the skin, with a noticeable contrast between the opening and the dry down, they feel almost like two completely different fragrances. Interestingly, the listed notes don’t fully reflect how the fragrance actually smells in practice. On my skin, the dry down becomes warmer, slightly sweeter, and more amber forward, with a soft vanilla like quality. At times, it even reminds me of Twenty Four Seven by Balenciaga. Although it’s often described as an animalic fragrance, I don’t find it animalic or “dirty” at all. On the contrary, it feels very clean, smooth, and refined. I also disagree with descriptions labeling it as masculine, on me, it reads as distinctly feminine. Another important point is that the notes listed on Fragrantica don’t match those on the official website. According to the brand, the composition is: • Top notes: White pear, nectarine, saffron, calendula, ambrette, cherry • Heart notes: Jasmine, gardenia, honeysuckle, Damask rose • Base notes: Ambrox®, patchouli, musk, sugared musk Overall, Fiamma is a sophisticated, evolving fragrance that leans sweet and ambery in the dry down, with a feminine and polished character

This smells so gooooood. Sprayed in duty free at the airport and came back 10 minutes later to purchase. I would actually say this is unlike any other fragrance I currently own. This is classy spicy amber and could be worn year round. The fruit and floral is there but it’s not pronounced, it’s just added sweetness and complexity. I also usually hate a pear note, so don’t let that put anyone off if it’s also not usually your thing. I have no idea why anyone would say this is similar in any way to BR540. Your nose must be broken. If I had to compare it to any fragrance, it actually makes me think of the gucci rush girl grown up into the rich sophisticated woman (and I was a big rush fan back in the day). The notes may not be similar, but it’s the vibe and the spiciness. This will make people stop you and ask what you’re wearing - same as rush did. It’s different and worth trying. 8.5/10 - longevity could be better, but banger fragrance and the price is good if you can find on discount

I am very surprised that this perfume has gone quite under the radar. I see that it is not ranked very highly, but to me it's a real gem! I tried it in a store and I must say that its evolution on the skin made me fall in love with it. I most definitely want to buy it. The opening fells quite soapy, maybe due to the pear, but it evolves into a beautiful gardenia which I love, and then the drydown seals the deal. It's not linear at all, which is a plus for a designer fragrance. Moreover, it lasts forever on my skin! I can't wait to add it to my collection!

Fiamma is a voluptuous, spiced white-floral offering, possessing a noticeable weight and depth that feels substantial without tipping into heavy, full-winter amber territory. The core white floral element is richly earthy and seamlessly interwoven with a sophisticated array of warming spices. However, those hoping for a bright, fruity or fresh note in an otherwise amber profile, this will likely prove a quiet disappointment. The dry-down settles into a remarkably creamy, milky base, underpinned by a clean, comforting amber. What is it like? This fragrance is the very hallmark of modern designer perfumery: impeccably blended, balanced, and featuring a highly refined amber profile. Despite being marketed as a women's fragrance, its profile leans decidedly unisex - that is likely why some report it as being even masculine in their reviews. Its spicy, temperate nature makes it an excellent, complex floral option for a man, especially during the cooler months of autumn. The projection is soft and deliberately delicate—an intimate sillage that creates a refined, private aura, ensuring it is demure and virtually impossible to offend. Who is this for? This scent is perfectly suited for the discreetly elegant individual. It is ideal for a professional environment, speaking to the quiet confidence of a wearer—regardless of gender—who seeks a warm, understated floral signature that suggests refinement rather than demands attention. It's the scent for the person who lets their actions speak louder than their fragrance. What can you wear with this? Fiamma pairs beautifully with the sensory comfort of late fall—think a tailored wool coat, vintage denim, and a chunky knit sweater. It truly comes alive after a cool rain shower, complementing the damp, crisp air with its inner warmth. How does it perform? It demonstrates modest sillage, pulling back to sit quite close to the skin within the first hour unless intentionally oversprayed. This results in superb longevity as a personal, enduring skin scent. Crucially, the composition adheres exceptionally well to fabric, remaining on clothing for significantly longer than on the skin.

This fragrance presents a compelling paradox: a familiar echo of BURBERRY BODY's signature warmth, yet a distinct departure into a fresher, more nuanced territory. The expected musk gives way to a powdery, iris-driven freshness, a subtle yet captivating floral accord. Prominent notes of amber and vanilla create a smooth, almost velvety texture, while a fine, powdery veil adds a touch of sophistication. An intriguing undertone emerges, a resinous, slightly balsamic quality reminiscent of benzoin, or perhaps a creamy, nutty oil, adding complexity. The listed white pear note remains undetectable on my skin, suggesting a potential for variation based on individual chemistry. This fragrance, therefore, demands a discerning palate and a skin that can fully showcase its intricate layers

this one is very quiet. i did a skin test and card today. in the ard she is citrussy white floral ish, i guess a very silent amber but i know its there due to the sense of the fragrance.. theres something minerally or slightly metallic in here, sift, rounded... i think it needs testing on its own. on my skin, i get a quiet ambery floral which is not really a floral, its minerally - like a very mild ambergries yet not salty... on a card i get more of the clean citrus floral amber thing going on with a bit of piney wood. hmmm, a quiet, sort of non perfume perfume. these type on me usually require another testing without other smells, and in different weather ok-like

amber ** white floral * warm spicy - fruity * animalic *** lactonic ** sweet * aquatic - soft, rounded, slightly dusky now, quiet amber floral, very slight 'maybe' spice, animalic/mineral/metallic?/clean, teensy touch sweet, not aquatic but it is airy and rounded, ozonic maybe? better today than yesterday, long lasting yes, a quiet overall scent. different on clothes than skin. office friendly, or if youre a non perfume person, its fine. also, its unusual. not linea

Super chic elegant Floral Amber for all year round, not too soft, not too heavy. Ideal for school. office and business.👌 It's unrelated to Baccarat Rouge, to my nose at least. Can't imagine how anybody would link it to that fragrance, which I dislike.

oh, and while im here, Fiamma is NOTHING like gucci rush, or rouge 540. zip. zero. i have them. the level of airy feel could mimic baccarat, but in no way a dupe. even less to do with Rush

The opening is pure heaven! I bought this after one test, thinking it was so unique and I couldn't live without it. In hindsight, I could have. The bright top notes leave quickly on me and the dry down is a bit boring and slightly stuffy. I swear I get milky vanilla and strong musk as the prominent notes in the dry down even though they aren't listed. It's not terrible, just not as exciting as I thought at first spray. Elegant and inoffensive - wearable for the office or a job interview. It's giving a sense of comfort, but also the faintest touch dirty dish water after a couple of hours. Edit - Every time I wear it the more I'm convinced it's too masculine on the dry down. Recommend trying a sample - My feelings about this keep evolving.

Not a people pleaser type at first then the dry down was surprisingly good. I usually feel the other way with many designer scent, that the dry down is where they start being unbearable. So it is a good point that Fiamma has a nice structure. It smells peppery and floral, more floral than I thought. Pretty sure it has much more notes, than these listed on the page. Actually it is nice how unisex it seems, it is brave from a designer perfume but I agree, it must be because it is a bit similar to Baccarat. Which I hate so I would say they even created something nicer than a dupe.

Despite the pretentious design (the cap is made rather strangely and inconveniently) this fragrance could be pleasant if not for its shameless resemblance to Baccarat Rouge. This is a kind of new word in perfumery, when a luxury brand so openly draws inspiration from a well-known niche fragrance, for which 1000 clones have already been created. And if I really wanted to buy something similar to the famous perfume, I would rather choose Instant Crush from Mancera.

Warm soft spicy amber with gardenia, no pear on my skin. Warm, cozy, elegant. What!? BR 540, didn’t come to my mind. It’s not masculine, but it could be unisex. It’s inoffensive, quiet, calm.

Baccarat Rouge 540 type of a scent with unfortunately too much of synthetic and chemical scent on my skin. Bottle design is nice thou, and that’s about it.

Lighter version of Van Cleef and Arpels Ambré Imperial

I just have to add my constructive 2cents- to say a fragrance can be worn year round is just not right— so before the youngsters come after me thinking I’m being rigid, let me explain— A fragrance can be worn year round, yes I agree with that- as long as it smells good year round— so many inexperienced noses don’t quite understand yet that a fragrance will change throughout the year- one particular not will shy away while another note that was hiding in the summer becomes loud in the winter. I have noticed that with every single fragrance I own- that there is a short window of opportunity where any given fragrance sings her best song. Once you know which weather, temperature and season that is for each fragrance- take note. Cuz you won’t get that again until the following year when it’s her time again. So many people think they’ve outgrown their favorite fragrance or that the bottle went bad. When in actuality, it’s just out of season for that fragrance- or if living in a place like Minnesota- could be the right season but not the right temperature. Also a spring 72 is not the same as a fall 72 degrees- so just cuz it smelled amazing after a long winter when it turned 72 degrees- doesn’t mean it’s going to smell amazing after a long or short summer at 72. The molecules change and shift, the notes take turn taking center stage. What you find amazing in spring, someone else with the same fragrance will find it amazing in the end of fall- same fragrance though. It is very rare to find a fragrance that smells amazingly great and the same year round. So to say it can be worn any time, any season is usually a mistake to say and misleading. Before you go throwing away any perfume after You tried it and it’s not smelling great or not smelling as great as you once experienced it to be— wait. Try your fragrances in every season and all different temperatures- get to know them before you pass judgement. In my earlier years I tossed many fragrances because I didn’t know any better. Experience has taught me what no one else has told me- so I’m sharing this now in hopes others will spread the word so we can not only save our fragrances from the trash bin but to also give more accurate reviews- it would be so helpful if ppl would include what the temperature and season is when they’re reviewing a fragrance. And when saying the best season for it, it means when does this fragrance sing her best song? When all the notes are dancing together the way they were intended to and giving us the experience the positive reviewers are talking about.

Got a sample, read that it was similar to BR 540, so I thought okay. Well, not okay. I find this fragrance offensive. It does come from the same family of perfumes as BR 540, but it evokes very unpleasant scent memories in me. Too masculine, too indolic. And not the good kind of indolic. The first thought after the sharp masculine opening, when it started settling, was a public bathroom, hot, stuffy, heavy room fragrance over the smell of someone doing n2 in the stall next to you. I even remembered the specific situation at Schipol airport toilet where I smelled something similar to this concoction. The dry down is the best part of the perfume- much softer spicy white flowers, but still nothing I would wear. This does not work on my skin and for my nose. Perhaps on someone else or someone more masculine, it could work. I am left wondering whether to toss the sample straight into the bin or try finding someone who'd actually enjoy this.

It’s -3 degrees and this smells a little bit better in ice cold ❄️ weather but it is still very manly. I wouldn’t mind smelling this on my man but it’s just not feminine enough for me. It’s a sweet masculine scent. It does smell good. I could see this being more popular amongst women in the 80’s. Think original Opium. Not for today’s younger women. If burgundy had a scent this would be it.

I tested it. It definitely has the BR540 vibe. Actually the drydown is similar but waaaaay softer. There’s also that metallic sour smell you can taste in each single dupe of BR540.

Have received sample from Year End sales back in December 2025 and didn't have a chance to test it until recently. I have tested for 2 weeks under the hot tropical climate (that's the country where I'm currently staying) and I have to agree some points that were mentioned by many reviewers below. First, this perfume is VERY, VERY ANIMALIC in nature. I think it's Gardenia that is giving pretty indolic vibe for this perfume and that being said, some people might find it not really their cup of tea, despite the scent itself is not like in beast mode in terms of projections. Personally, I'm not really a big fan of white florals especially for those indolic types, but I do appreciate to enjoy them time to time since it's really fascinating to sniff around when I'm in the mood for trying out new things with a courage. Second, I don't think it is similar to BR 540; Not even close, at least on my skin when I tested. I do have a full bottle of BR 540 for myself, and I clearly see their scent profile is not the same. Maybe they share a little of DNA in terms of the scent profile that is very close to Ambergris (I'm not so sure why Ambergris is not stated for Fiamma, but I DO smell Ambergris like scent profile). On my skin, this perfume is a little bit too heady and indolic, where it almost feels like barnyardy at some point. If I have to pick the one that is the closest to Fiamma, I would say Vintage Muse from Kate Moss. The difference is that Kate Moss is slightly more spicy and sharper, while Fiamma is more plusher and slightly rounded. I really wanted to like this perfume so much, but sadly, my body chemistry didn't work (at least that's what I feel). While I was doing testing, my dad was testing it along with me and surprisingly, he was not aware that this perfume was marketed for Women (I do wear Unisex or Men's scent time to time, so it's not really a new thing). It was amazing on my dad, and I am really jealous that I couldn't have that scent profile for myself during the testing... but that being said, I 100% agree that this perfume is perfectly unisex, and I think it actually works a way better on men since it does have pretty masculine traits from start until the finish line. For guys who like the style of skanky, old school (especially 80s) Women's scent profile, I think it's worth it to give a try.
