Valentina Acqua Floreale

I love this. Been on the search for a floral but there is always something off with them for me, but this one is perfect, just so so lovely. My friend smelled it on me and said it smelled "normal". Well, maybe it is, if you consider just flowers "normal" but I have yet to discover a perfume that has been so successful in bottling flowers so well. To me it's just beautiful. I think you have to smell a lot of perfumes to appreciate this one. It's not that easy to get this so right. Just crossing my fingers that the longevity is ok on me next time I try, if so, I will be buying. Update: this last long enough for me! So delicious, I bought it. Together with the bottle it makes me think of a beautiful vanilla chocolate wedding cake topped with flowers. But nothing is too sweet or overpowering.

Oh... So heavenly beautiful! I wore this for my wedding in August 2013 and I was very happy with my choice. They are heavenly drops, very special and lavish to me, so I've been saving them for the best occasions, but I wear it more and more now. It is such a gorgeous fragrance, and it gives a really exclusive and special feeling/atmosphere. Not just because of my personal memories with it, but because of the exclusive character of the fragrance itself. It's feminine, luxurious, fragile yet confident and so beautiful and carefree. Makes me feel like a VIP, no actually, even better, like a princess. How can I explain? It makes me feel rich, graceful and beautiful. It fills the air gently, but yet so intoxicatingly... mmmmmm...... Thanks Valentino! I love this fragrance!

I don't like citrusy perfumes - but this is beautiful. It's similar to Valentina EDP but way fresher and younger. I tested it on my skin today: As I said the opening is very fresh and young. * Then, about 30 minutes later it gets a bit fresh/creamy spicy. * After some minutes later it dries down to a wonderful - dreamy - romantic - white floral scent. but very grown up. It's a shame that it doesn't last long - on my skin only about 2h!! I guess that's THE perfume for spring - when you're out for a walk or also in the morning when the sun comes up and you're lying in the bed with your boy.

I'm in love with this fragrance... It's clear, fresh and so lovely. It smells amazing. It begins with fresh citrus juice and white flowers. Then it gets warmer and makes you feel a lovely woman. its romantic... <3

As well as the starring bergamot and orange blossom, I think there is also a zesty lemon note, making the fragrance fresh and sharp for the first ten minutes. I normally dislike perfumes with tuberose as I find it heavy and migraine inducing, so it nice to ind a fragrance including it that I can wear. It is actually the watery orange blossom note that is the strongest, followed quickly by the neroli, which combines with the remaining citrus notes perfectly for a soapy undertone. After a few hours Valentina Acqua Floreale transforms from a citrussy floral to a warm oriental, as the sweet amber and earthy patchouli mixes nicely with the spicy neroli and warms up the reminder of the fragrance, for a starting contrast to the freshness of the beginning. Valentina Acqua Floreale is 'nice' and I will happily continue to use my bottle, but this isn't a fragrance I'd choose to buy for myself; it's ageless, easy to wear and is unoffensive to other people. On the downside; it is a bit too safe and generic, and it doesn't wear for long, which is disappointing for the price.

Warm embrace, this is how I would describe the first spray of Valentina Acqua floreale. On my skin, this fragrance is warm and oriental, mostly amber and light vanilla traces. I cannot feel the orange or the bergamot, but instead, after a few minutes, I can sense jasmine and the fragrance becomes creamy, powdery and soft. It reminds me of Ajmal Shine, and I am pretty sure that I also owned another perfume resembling it. It is not outstanding or out of the ordinary, but it is nice and safe to wear, especially in chilly weather. I wouldn't say it s boring, but it is not extraordinary either. After 10minutes or so, the fragrance settles to plain soft powder, not unpleasant, but somehow old or so.

I've had this for a while, every now and then the charming bottle calls to me and I'll spray and spray...and spray. This perfume is so soft that I feel I have to reapply constantly. It's an enchanting scent, the orange blossom and bergamot are beautifully fresh and so well blended with pretty mimosa. The jasmine and neroli round off this fragrance perfectly. This juice IS incredibly delicate but subtlety is not a bad thing, I'm sure we've all been trapped near someone wearing a monster fragrance- not an experience I enjoy nor would want to inflict on anyone else. This is delightful and feminine but sits extremely close to the skin and for me at least, has to be reapplied frequently.

A very welcome fresher Valentina. Floral version, orange flower centered with strong bergamot opening that's lasting a long while. Mimosa softens it, jasmin and tuberose are peeking, but gently from the heart. Canvas is ambery. This is a very bridal bouquet. Summer-safe. The heart of the scent is lovely and well-blended with certain solar quality. It is gentle, at this stage it does resemble Valentina classic still, but only in sketches. It is a standalone and worth having if you like Valentina aesthetic. I always like this scent on me, it's nice and feminine. I can feel it on my skin the next day after application it clearly lasts more than 12 hours.

My dad bought me this perfume at the airport. At first sniff there is a very harsh mix of citrus and powder scents that hits you in the face but it not unpleasant. However, the sharpness of the bergamot makes my throat scratchy, to the point where I have stopped wearing it. It is one of those scents that you keep smelling on yourself, even though the sillage isn't very powerful. I left my bottle in its box in a dark cupboard for a couple of years and basically forgot about it. It is a nice scent if you like citrussy florals, but it is definitely not a must-have.

Notes: bergamot, orange blossom that mingle with the heart of neroli, mimosa, tuberose and jasmine. The base is oriental, made of amber and patchouli. For some reason, immediately after I spritz, my mouth waters with this one! I think my brain is interpreting an effervescent note. Once the scent quiets down after about 5 min, I’m left with a clean, simple, beautiful, elegant fragrance that’s perfect for work or romance and anything in between. It’s ultra feminine, for all the ladies who like pinks and purples and ruffles and bows... and bouquets of flowers!

Valentina Acqua Floreale never passed through my radar, lucky for me my dear friends gifted it to me for Xmas. It is a bright blend of mimosa and jasmine, with a good performance in both sillage and longevity. The bottle is so pretty that don't stop to admire it. A beautiful discovery!

Nice! I will say this can be a nice transitional summer to fall perfume or winter to spring. First spritz is very floral than it dries to something very elegant. It reminds me of 90s floral perfumes. I like it. My only con is that it's not long lasting. :(

عطری گرم و شیرین و گلی و پودری که گهگاه نسیم خنکی و مرکباتی هم از پس روایح عطر رو کمی شاداب میکنه ولی بعد از مدتی این بوی مرکباتی هم محو میشه و فقط بوی گل و روایح شیرین و گرم رو احساس خواهید کرد پخش و ماندگاری بسیار خوبی داره

This is light and very pleasant, especially for a couple of hours after application. Then, it turns into a stronger strawberry scent on my skin. Not bad, but perhaps a bit too sweet for me. Great longevity, soft sillage.

It was love at first sight with this pretty bottle〜❤︎ I feel myself feminin when applying from head to toe. Very fresh inoffensive white floral with belgamot. Thank god that patchouli is not too strong. I like this!

This smells VERY similar to Valentino Valentina to me. Maybe a bit lighter & fresher, but nearly the same. It's a nice scent, but nothing spectacular. Sits very close to the skin and doesn't last long.

Very good and Very sweet for a no vanilla scent. It reminds me strongly of Nina Nina Ricci. I wanted to buy it straight away but decided to finish the Nina bottle first, since the emotion is the same.

It smells for 10 minutes and then it's gone! I couldn't even understand what that smell.

Bears no resemblance to the original Valentina - it's a weak, basic fragrance that reminds me of the chewable orange children's aspirins I used to take as a youngster. Disappointing, as I like the first two in the range.

Beautiful MIX between jasmin and orange blossom, romantic yet fresh and creamy, I wish it lasts on my skin, but it lasts for (2-3) hours, max.
