My Name

I was surprised to see that I forgot to write a review for My Name.I bought it more than three years ago when I was newly intrested in perfumes and I loved it back then.I even thought that it can be my signature but my husband wasn't fond of it(he liked it but didn't love it) so I decided to try other perfumes and this was the beginning of my perfume addiction Now that I tried it after a long separation,I can see that I still love it.lilac and heliotrope are the most dominant notes on me and they're fresh,softly powdered and lovely here.there's also this marshmallowy vanilla which makes My Name delicious,not that it's a gourmand or overly sweet,it's just a delicious floral scent. when I first spray it I feel as if I'm smelling rain-washed purple petals of flowers while there's a hint of sweet powdery scent coming from somewhere preventing it from turning to a cold or melancholic purple floral.after a while it smells like face powder and marshmallows on me.dry down is creamy and slightly musky and smells like a heavenly smelling body lotion.It smells great in each stage and I love it all through it's life Trussardi My Name is truely lovely.it's super feminine,innocent and romantic yet classy and sophisticated.it's clean and comforting the same time.it's also inoffensive,easy to wear year round(I prefer it the most in spring) and in various situations.it's a modern scent but I can see something classical feminine in it too I prefer it to Love by Chloe and IMHO it has nothing to do with Lacoste Pour femme.if you love Bvlgari Omnia Amethyst or Issey Miyake Pleats Please edp(the purple bottle) there's a big chance for you to like My Name too However I have some other great lilac-heliotrope perfumes nowadays( such as Amouage Lilac Love),there will be always a place for Trussardi My Name in my collection.there's about 30mils or less left in it's bottle and after going through it,I may consider repurchasing(something I rarely do) Longevity is moderate on my skin,4-5 hours.it stays close to skin but I won't call it a weak or faint perfume as I can catch lovely whiffs of it during all these hours By the way I like it's bottle too P.S: today my husband commented on it: you smell pretty and angelic! I think after all he's growing to love it too یه عطر بسیار دوست داشتنی که با توجه ب قیمتش ارزش خریدبالایی داره موقع اسپری کردن،حس میکنم دارم گلبرگ بارون خورده ی گلهای بنفش رو بو میکنم.رایحه گلها طبیعی و ملایم و زیباست.در ادامه ترکیبی از رایحه پودرصورت(پنکک) و مارشمالو حس میکنم.بدون اینکه زیادی شیرین یا خوراکی طور باشه یجور خوشمزگی پودری داره.تو درای داون هم یه رایحه لطیف و کرمی شبیه یه لوسیون بدن خیلی خوشبو داره تروساردی مای نیم سرشار از زنانگی و ظرافته و درکنار خانومانه بودن،معصومیت دلنشینی داره.درعین تمیزی،آرامش بخش و راحته و عملا تمام طول سال و تو موقعیت های مختلف قابل استفاده ست اگه دوستدار روایح پودری و عطرهایی مثل بولگاری آمیتیس،،ایسی میاکه پلیتز پلیز بنفش و کلویی لاو هستین حتما امتحانش کنید موندگاری متوسطی داره و هرچند پخش بوش به نحویه که تو فضای شخصی اطراف تون حس میشه،بنظرم عطر ضعیفی نیست چون فقط با دو پاف میتونم رایحه زیباش رو تا چند ساعت حس کنم

Soft, gentle, creamy, with heliotrope & a very little violet + some lilac - it reminds me so much, of a more sophisticated, 'Johnson's baby lotion' - but in the nicest possible way. Subtle, elegant, beautiful, with a v pleasant, delicate musk. Delicate is a good way to describe the whole thing, & I don't wear this (because it's similar to another of my beloved perfumes) but it smells absolutely lovely on my friend, & she wears it so often, it has become her new signature, the only heliotrope I usually wear is in Alaia Blanche, & Narciso Poudree - but this, one with it's creamy, gentle lilac & almond flower + heliotrope is just lovely (& might be something you could find on a teacher, a nanny or anybody who works with children, (such as my friend,) bc it's gentle but persistent, it lingers long on clothes, espc; but it is not boring, not at all, you would also find this on a person who is extremely classy, & wears elegant classic style clothes & has impeccable taste & is never flashy in anyway, she would wear this - it is, delicate & beautiful & it's a lovely perfume altogether, espc if you like delicate perfumes; I prefer this much to a Drop D'Issey, which is a little more bombastic - where My Name is gentle & subtle, I picture someone dressed in pale colours, a cashmere sweater perhaps - with soft, natural, slightly wavy hair - it's a v calm scent, & the person who wears this is never ostentatious, but is still stylish, in a classc way & v confident in herself. (Someone here said it smells almost like Designer "Baby Lotion" with some lilac, almond flower, vanille +heliotrope & I think that's quite true. Longevity is pretty good. Am always quite taken with Trussardi - the house makes some lovely perfumes, & this is one of the nicest, beautiful violet almond flower & heliotrope; the vanilla is barely there & sweet but not too sweet, as is the entire perfume & it's all so lovely, I doubt anybody's could smell this on somebody else, & dislike it, it's something most ppl find clean, slightly sweet & beautiful, & everybody is pleased to smell such gentle perfumes on others. (& as others have mentioned this is very similar, but less spicy, than Florentina, by Sylvaine Delacourt, which I'm also fond of & wear, that parfum was gift, but this one I purchased.) It really is my good friend's Signature, now though, this, very much so, & she wears it like a second skin, morning, afternoon & even evening - she used to wear, Love Chloe, but now always wear this (she's not one for lots of different perfumes, & this reallysuits her vibe) & she always smells fresh, but not too citrus-sy, clean, slightly lotioney & of Lilac/Vanille /Almond Flower, like some kind of beautiful lotion & purple flower, & people say "Oh you smell lovely" - rather than "What perfume are you wearing" which is something she likes a lot. This is her vibe, v much - & would suit anybody who wears Love Chloe, or even the Chloe EDP & loves to smell clean but feminine & beautiful.

Say what you will about the tacky little bottle LOL, BUT, My Name is a classic example of why you never judge a BOOK by it's Cover! OMGoodness this fragrance aaahh-mmm-aazzing! I have been searching for a Lilac, Violet fragrance that would satisfy my need for that ohhh sooo soft, bright and perfect scent of real Lilacs and this is the one! Super intense at first spray in the Lilac element which I loved but then Violets and Heliotrope began to pop, like little pings here and there! Soon I was wearing a full blown symphony of purple perfection!!! It's fizzy at first, almost like it was mixed with a tad bit of champagne to tickle your nose and senses. It is simple but very elegant. A bit modern, and a tiny bit of old school, as it lays down a blue print for the perfect garden fragrance. It's grounded in it's composition and clearly could be found in any grandmothers backyard garden, as the lilac, heliotrope and violet are about as real as I have ever smelled. It reeks of simplicity and old wealth. I think this is the fragrance you might find on the dressing tables of the very wealthy, as an everyday SECRET fragrance staple, the scent that the rest of us yearn for, yet are afraid to ask..."What fragrance are you wearing?" My Name is brightly crisp and sweet. It's all purple floral for me, with the Lilac always forefront. It is not sugary sweet on my skin, as the Vanilla did not come in to play. The Musk, Arum Lily and Amber were also not detectable for me. I love this scent and feel like I found a real treasure in this fragrance! I think it will be best in spring and summer but I will wear it in fall too, just because it is so lovely! It is a dreary, ugly, rainy and icy day here today...I have it on, and it is singing the promise and renewal of spring! It has lifted my mood and set my sights on spring. When wearing this, I swear spring could be right around the corner. I will not hesitate to use it in winter, as a Blahhhh Buster, on ugly depressing days! Longevity is better than average and sillage is good. I think this smells a tad bit like Aerin Lauders, Lilac Path which I really like too. IMHO this one is brighter, more realistic and is a bit more affordable. It definitely last longer on the skin. If you love the notes of Lilac, Violets and Heliotrope you really need to give Trussardis, My Name a try.

What I love about this site and my blind purchases that are based on reviews here? They expose me to frags that would otherwise not even come up on my radar. And lately I just have luck with my blind purchases. So I ordered My Name, and boy am I glad I did. This is way better than I anticipated based on the notes listed here and the reviews. It is sweet indeed, but in a very light way, yet not the fleeting kind of tenderness. This could become my new casual day time fragrance. It will not bump my favorite day time beauty Jil Sander Sun off as my signature fragrance, but it is more wearable day in day out than Sun, which for me is more a leisure time scent. My Name is not too intense for a day at the office, but still it has a happy leisure time vibe to it. Most of the frags I use for work are more on the nice but boring side (like L'air du Temps), as I want to be safe and not being offensive. This fits so much better to me and my personality. I love it, and even though I consider Jil Sander Sun as my signature fragrance, I am sure I am going to wear My Name a lot more than my all time beauty this summer, because there are more opportunities for it. And yes, it does smell a bit of a nice hand lotion. It is truly lovely.

Perhaps it's the weather, or perhaps the nature of my skin, but this is warming to me. By warming, I mean it feels as though it has warmth and yet if I change the nature of my mental approach, I can easily sense the cool linen sheet vibe that others are describing. I was worried from the other reviews that I may not like this, but I saw the Goccia bottle for a ridiculously discounted price on eBay, beautiful to behold and I have to say, it's as gorgeous on the inside. It somehow reminds me of something, so strong is that memory association playing in my mind, but I can't entirely tell where from. I wonder if it's like one of the beautiful expensive perfumes my grandmother wore? Don't get the wrong idea, she never wore and old last scent in her life! Her favourite fragrance was Dune and I wonder if that's what this fragrance is triggering in me? Anyway, don't believe the dis-hype; I have all manner of fragrances in my collection and I am impressed by this one. It's 120% class, like my late grandmother in her Yves St. Laurent button down shirt and pearl earrings ❤️

Divine. Please don’t judge it off the reviews, go and test it on yourself. I was looking for a simple floriental fragrance to wear in spring/summer, something that is light enough and good for layering as well as on its own, loved the notes in this so much but stayed away from it for too long because of some negative reviews. It’s not (just) powdery, soapy, clean or weak. It is floral. It has a creamy base. Projection is not as bad as people say at all. It is lovely. I tested it few times before finally getting it today. It was especially lovely when the weather was hot, rainy or just heavy and I was irritated, tired, sensitive and could not stand majority of scents around me, this is when My name truly shines. It lifted my mood and I could breathe and dream and love again. It is beautiful easy delicate ethereal angelic fragrance. Simple but not that simple. Just the right amount of sweetness there. Please test in on yourself if you are looking for something similar but unsure and don’t just brush it away because of the negative reviews as I have for too long.

So, I blind bought this, hoping this would smell similar to Love by Chloe (at least a tiny little bit). It doesn't. It smells nothing like that - which doesn't make it a bad fragrance, though. It's decent - soft, flowery, creamy - but it also feels way greener than I expected and in no way powdery, which makes it very similar to Flower by Kenzo and I wasn't really fond of that one. I don't know why, based on the notes I didn't really think this would smell like Flower even though it was listed among similar perfumes. My bad. :) Anyway, I don't dislike the scent. I think it would be good for me to wear during those days when I just want to smell pretty and "pretty neutral" at the same time, if you know what I mean... I can smell lilac there and I like it. It's also kind of comforting, which I like about it, too. I only wish it would feel less "green" to me and more powder-like. I would still recommend the fragrance if you want something gentle and soft for yourself, something creamy and green at the same time. :) and if you like lilac in perfumes, too...

Ohhhh my god, thats what i call italian chic in a bottle! Thick layer of alluring yummy sweet creamy heliotrope and lilac, powdery violet, warm vanilla amber and soft cosy plushy musk. Tested this today at my local perfumstore, and i was surrounded the whole afternoon by a big soft opaque cloud of everything what smells like heaven - simply fall in love with this elegant scent and finished by buying right away a 100 bottle at the end of my shopping day. Want to bath in it! The type of woman on the add suits perfectly this lovely chic scent. Not for the very young crowd. Suits best i d say romantic chic and confident women from 30-50. Very projecting and intense longlasting too. Quite linear scent, it doesn t change much from top to bottom, its more a swirling and dancing around of the heavenly blended notes, whats a good thing. Still in heaven with my test spritz from the afternoon. Very enjoyable for woman who like to make an elegant statement. Update: took a full bath and trussardi my name is still faintly wafting from my wrist. Wow ❤️

I blind bought My Name because I have been on a lilac kick ever since my Aunt passed. She loved flowers especially her huge white lilac tree in her front yard. So, if there is a lilac fragrance I think I will like I'm buying it. My Name starts off with a blast of violet following heliotrope. The lilac does show up and supports the composition but this is more a heliotrope and violet fragrance. I love it, even though I wish the lilac was more pronounced. Violet and heliotrope are favorites of mine as well. I don't really get lily here at all. I get more of a warm musky amber instead in the dry down. Very pretty purple floral. If you live for all things purple like I do, purple clothes, purple flowers. The smell of purple check this little inexpensive beauty out. The cap of this bottle is also kind of quirky. It's squishy. A very soft purple powder of a fragrance. I tested this on my mom and she loved it. I've been building her collection. She didn't have a purple floral. Now she does. I gave my bottle to her.

There are many fragrances that are kind of similar to My Name. Sweet, floral powder and musk is not exactly a groundbreaking idea. But the lilac note is a lovely twist that makes this stand out from the bunch. Lilac isn't used in perfumery as often as many other florals, and it has a tendency to turn screechy or cloying when it's done wrong. In My Name it's done right. Like a sweet nectar, but airy and fresh with the smallest hint of greenery. The rest of the perfume is a beautiful blend of almond-like heliotrope, light creamy vanilla, powdery violets and fluffy white musk. None of the notes are too sweet or too sharp, everything feels smooth and balanced. It's a comforting, clean, soft scent that is suitable for daytime use year round, but especially fitting in spring, when the lilac trees also start to bloom. This is a relatively shy scent, no loud performer, but I don't mind. It can hardly be oversprayed and is very affordable, so an extra spray or two won't hurt.

I finally purchased My Name. It was not so easy to find. I tested My Name many years ago and liked it a lot. I love the smell of lilacs but in a perfume, I like it when there are other floral notes blended with them. My Name is soft, floral, feminine and very office and home friendly. Cannot disturb anyone. It gets a bit powdery in the drydown but avoids smelling dated like some powdery, lilac dominant perfumes. This is a scent of my favourite season: late spring-early summer, blooming lilacs, a walk through meadows. It fits every season in my opinion, even though it has the smell of spring flowers. It sits close to skin. Longevity should be better and sillage at least moderate, this is Eau de Parfum after all. You do have to add a few sprays during a day, to keep this beautiful, soft, purple floral cloud around you. I bought the 30 ml bottle with very low price. The bottle in this size is all glass, including the cap, and it's a pretty bottle.

I almost bought it. Mainly because it smells like a "real" perfume, which is a rare thing these days. It really smells very posh, as another reviewer has already stated. I sprayed it on a paper strip and tucked it into my pocket, and I was instantly surrounded by a scent cloud of this classy, powdery perfume. I was really fascinated by it. But the more I smelled it, the more I felt uncertain about it. "Is it really for me? Maybe it's too powdery and intrusive". At the end of the day, I realized that it's probably one of those beautiful perfumes that you like to smell on others but not exactly feel comfortable wearing it yourself. And it felt familiar. It reminded me a lot of Flower by Kenzo. The projection and longevity are very good. One spray on a paper strip overpowered Chanel Chance I was wearing that day. I wouldn't call it clean and safe. It's powdery, posh and in your face, but in the best possible way.

This scent came into my collection after doing a swap and it trigerred my powdery perfumes phase. The lilac is slightly green, feeling like you broke a bunch of lilac off and immediately smell the flower and the sap, but it's not something that will last for a long time. I get the violet with a slightly sharp note that fades away pretty quickly leaving the powdery feel. The drydown is a musky vanilla, kind of what you'd expect an elegant feminine silk blouse to smell like. I find it great for the office, it's completely inoffensive and sufficiently elegant to pull off in the spring and summer since it cannot get too heavy even if you overspray. It's not strong enough for cold weather in my opinion. When I used it in winter, it felt different, closer to smelling an empty powder pan, giving off a slightly metallic scent, but going also a little greener and sharper, becoming a skin scent almost instantly.

I got a notice about a recall for this due to an ingredient banned by Italy called BMHCA. Do not think it is banned in the USA (typical). Would you be concerned and discontinue? === I love Italian fragrance and GA Sensi. And L'Instant Magic (which I know is French, but it smells Italian to me!). So I spent more than I should blind-buying a big bottle of this. Thank God I love it, like a grown-up Love's Baby Soft or the way Pamela Anderson (I adore her) would smell, clean and innocent with a knowing wisdom in her eyes. Too bad it is so light. I would buy it at 5 times the strength, lol. If only it was a powerhouse like Sensi. Baby powder sweetness is cut with almond creaminess and a gentle heliotrope like LT Piver Heliotrope Blanc. I have loved all the Trussardi scents I have tried, and I don't understand why this brand is not more popular in the States.

It was a present, and at first I didn’t like it, full of regret that I opened the packaging. This first impression was strangely wrong and followed by a strong addiction to this fragrance: I am usually a fan of cloyingly sweet ‘cotton candy’ perfumes but if I want to make a more ‘serious’ impression I wear this scent. It is quite sweet but in a powdery soft way. The elements are well-balanced: you can’t say whether it’s floral, or vanilla at first - it’s kind of all mixed nicely and creates an orchestra of its own. My husband likes it as well, although he can be really really capricious about fragrances. I’ve read one review here somewhere saying that it smells like a very expensive hand cream - Agreed! For me it’s the smell of my mom when she gave me a kiss goodnight all my childhood - which is magical.

I wrote a review on this perfume before (if you want, check it a couple of comments below) and now I see I should have expressed more enthusiasm&love for this fragrance. :) Even though it's more on the faint, soft side and normally I'm used to "louder" perfumes, and even though I perceived it as "green" before and not powdery enough (which I wasn't particularly fond of), only now I can smell it's beautiful powdery aspect, gentle lilac note mixed with a hint of vanilla and violet. I wear it mostly before bed or after shower (as I prefer wearing more noticeable perfumes when I go out), but I enjoy it so, so much. Now it's not only a "filler" perfume for me I wear when I don't know what else to wear.... It became a love for me and a beautiful bedtime scent I'm reaching for quite often. :) truly pretty!

If I was granted one wish in my life, I'd wish for "My Name" to become my natural skin scent. this perfume makes me feel like I'm "the woman", not just a woman, it makes me fall in love with myself even when I'm dressed in my oldest pajama set and haven't washed my hair for 3 days. I love it, it's the type of scent that is intimate and comforting, a perfect bedtime scent, just the right balance of sweet, powdery, and creamy. If you like the sweet aroma of almond oil you'd love this, this sweet almond scent comes form Heliotrope. sometimes I like to make it more fresh and less cozy, so I layer it with an orange scented body mist, particularly a spicy orange scent, they go really well together, also for such a sophisticated fragrance, this is really cheap, may god keep his blessings upon us.

I have no idea why i didn't review this one til now. This is epic in my opinion! It's not super popular, you'll hardly ever hear someone mention this and i honestly don't know why. It's such an elegant, vintage, romantic,floral, powdery scent (but not like dry baby powder, but more like a powdery, luxurious hand cream kind of way, if that makes sense). If you want something that makes you feel like a proper lady, i suggest you try it☺. And unlike many other fragranticians here, i adore the bottle, i find it depicts the perfume perfectly. P.S. I don't know if any of you are familiar with the woman in my profile picture, but I feel this is something she would like and wear. A perfume for a classic, vintage fashion loving natural beauty, who's not even aware of how beautiful she is.

Not tried it yet BUT I'm desperate to as I have just been told from a very good source it smells very very very like my all time favourite, Scilly by D&G. I'll let you all know my verdict as soon as I try it. Fingers crossed. UPDATE: Well well well, I received a surprise sample of this in the post today thanks to jimmorrison another Fragrantica reviewer . It is beautiful very like Sicilly by Dolce & Gabbana and just like Sicilly it is fresh clean shower fresh clean laundry. It stays the same from start to finish. Update part two Apologies if you've bought this as a blind buy hoping it is the same as Sicilly, it is very like Sicilly but only for the first few minutes then it all changes to something very powdery not as nice as Sicilly but still nice
