Versace Essence Exciting

It totally sucks that this was discontinued. This should have been re-vamped, re-bottled and marketed as a men's fragrance as soon as Donatella launched Versence. Just a thought..... I happen to like this one very much and it worked for me like a charm. I may actually buy as many bottles of this as I possibly can.

I cannot se Lily-of-the-Valley note, but it is actually the not I can here in this fragrance. Clean & flowery(not alcohol like at all) Spring/Summer, everyday or, could be used for romantic event as well. Thank you Taïs for this wonderfull fragrance :) p.s there is some kind of note i do not like though....cannot say what it is.

Lovely floral green perfume.The lily is very detectable here with the green notes,the peach gives it a lil sweetnes.Perfect for spring/summer time.It is very nice and i find it light.It is perfect when i take a break for all heavy orientals that i usually use:)

Didn't like it, the drydown was nice but could not stand the strong opening notes. The opening notes were overwhelming to say the least, and it was mostly an artificial citrus smell than I didn't care for.

Ugh! I hate it. It made me want to vomit. It was that green scent, yuck.

20. march 2016 I have recently recieved the "Exciting essence" and have tested it several times on my skin with all the different outcomes and here are my thoughts. The name is misleading, htere is nothing exciting about this scent for me. This is kind of strange scent that you don ́t know what to think about: you do not hate it, neither you like it. I really dislike the opening, it smells weird (maybe due to age of unstable formula in whic top notes are actually already ruined??? IDK). The opening for me smells like a mix of peach gone bad and freesia with a very strong cedar and addition of musk. I do not know how to explain the actual smell but it is not the pleasant one. it ́s like all the notes mixed together are present in the very opening. After the opening you get a mix of notes dismembered and then you have left with mix of freesia and peach, with lily paving her way through more and more to the center. At some pont it becomes an intense smell of buttery lily, which i enjoy very much. I think the cedar note id present throught all the stages however. I do not smell a note of LOTV as some other mention, i strongly believe it is a lily and freesia mix. And i do not see it as a masculine scent as well, it is very feminine and feels very much like a spring time. It is delicate and soft/caressing. At on point it strongly reminds me of something else, but i cant point out what exactly. Anyway, it is much better that the "Ethereal essence" which i had to get rid of, but i repeat there is nothing exciting about this essence as well. Just a nice scent out of thousands others which do not outstand. P.S. I hate the lid though! Does not goes along with the bottle IMO

Spring has come and I find my self wanting to wear this one for I feel like laying on flower field when I close my eyes. I love freesias maybe that's why I like this fragrance in the springtime. Funny, even though it's not listed here I'd swear I get lily of the valley, fresh ones, which not everyone likes (it'd explain lack of interest in this fragrance here :) It's s simple fragrance but cute and nice, bit sweetish and long lasting. There are moments in my life when I like to feel cheerful, thoughtless fun then I apply Essence Exciting :)

yep - I agree with Zocha: much, a lot, a starring Muguet in the top notes. Since this is not my favourite flower (too heady, like Jasmine in most cases) I already thought: SWAPPING! (Very fast with those decisions...) but - stop. Peach comes, Lily comes, even some citrus appears in the far off background. Quite pretty actually - not mindbreaking pretty, but nice 'n' pretty. Refreshing green notes, come out to give a cheeky twist - and I find myself thinking: Easter Party! First dash through the green...

I did not like this one at all! All I smell is the damn jasmine and I don't like jasmine one bit! Pink jasmine is another story but this stuff is not for me! This one should have been called: "Funeral Parlor" and saved Demeter all the trouble of calling there's the same name. YUK!

It smells like watery medicine. Terrible stuff. I must not have again...brrr!
