Versace Pour Femme

I am a big fan of this House, and each and every one of their fragrances has a place in my perfumed heart! When I first saw Versace Signature (aka Versace Pour Homme) on a discount site, the notes for THIS were listed, and of course I ordered a sample. What came was very nice, indeed; but not this. I was curious how all these wonderful florals would work in a man's scent. They wouldn't...this is feminine class and style in a sheer and modern framework. Upon sniffing this in a vial, I was enchanted. After applying it to my skin, I am enthralled! This has just enough fruitiness in the top to be "juicy" but not sticky sweet. Dark currants dance with creamy tropical guava and creates something tart and succulent. Wisteria whispers of the heavenly flowers to follow and white lilacs give a springlike feel to the whole composition, dripping with the dew. Even at the peak of the heart, the floral choir never gets too "loud" as transparent "angel wing" jasmine serenades playfully, and azaleas fill out the song. Orchid has her solo, but blends nicely with the other "ladies" as lotus spreads her petals wide to embrace them all. Donatella has met (and exceeded) my expectations from the description above: a modern and sheer floral perfume with a classic feel! As it begins to dry, a vetiver breeze blows us into a woody clearing of moroccan cedar and cashmere wood with just a hint of very sexy musk, surrounded by a flowery aura. She is playful and sexy, but has her feet firmly on the ground and her eyes on the prize. She knows she is beautiful but calls no attention to it; it just shines! She is balanced, she is amazing, she is Spring greeting Summer... Sillage: very good Longevity: above average Overall: 4.5/5 I love Versace Pour Homme (2008) and he is a fitting consort to this lovely creature. I had a mentor who said (without a hint of hidden sarcasm) that "Women have ALL the power." This echoes that sentiment to a Tee!! VPH is great, but this-this IS just gorgeous...

i wore this in the late 2000s for about 3 years straight. repurchased three times. that means i really liked it. it’s an unusual floral combination. it’s bordering on being aquatic. it has a wetness about it. it’s kind of dreamy. i got many complements on this. it had good lasting power. i feel it’s a spring and summer scent. can be worn day or night. i wore it when i was going out mostly. so it sat or stood with me while waiting for a table at a restaurant or a concert. that was mostly when strangers complimented me. one friend of my great uncle’s whom i only saw me once or twice a year, if that, came and sat next to me, so she could smell my perfume! she said she hasnt smelled me for so long and liked my perfume. this is probably my favorite versace perfume. it’s got a freshness about it. the guava is juicy in this. it is a work of art. i recently got a bottle and im too scared to spray it. i hope it hasnt been changed. ive become weary of smelling perfumes i used to love, because theyve changed so many. the lasting power of the older creations is usually gone, the stages and delicacy and their uniqueness is usually gone. i know it’s just perfume, but to me perfume is everything. more important to me, am i really saying this, than even shoes. if i have to leave the house in a hurry, perfume is the one thing i do. wash face, brush teeth, pile hair on top with a claw, perfume, and out. no makeup, no look in the long mirror, no care about how i look. it’s how i smell that’s most important to me. please please please let it be the same one i knew. and not labotonized . of course, there’s also the fact that it is old and even a new one still wrapped, may have lost some or all notes.

Versace Versace is a young and effervescent fragrance, which is youthful and bubbly without smelling too synthetic or sweet. It smells like a white floral to me with fruity accords. It's very fresh, and there's something in this that can make it a bit cold, but once it settles on the skin it dries down to a warmer floral scent. The musk in this is very light but it's just the right amount to keep it from being too sharp. It's very luxurious, and I think it's young without being a sickly-sweet gourmande. I think any woman in her 20-30's could wear this. I'm only 16 but I tend to like the more "mature" scents for my age (basically meaning I don't like Juicy Couture), but I've worn this many times and my friends says it smells great, not old at all. This perfume lasts a good amount of time and it only smells better given time to develop. This goes with my skin chemistry perfectly, but I find if I spray it on my hair it doesn't develop that warm base and can become cloying. I also have to be careful not to use too much, as it's reasonably strong and can become a bit overbearing. Overall I really like this decadent perfume, it has a very luxurious and glamorous feel to it, reminding me of 70's hollywood movies where the youthful, glowing actresses had long blonde bouncy hair and were very whimsical, but at the same time had that touch of sexiness. I get that exact feeling from the print ad too! I think this is a daytime fragrance but it could easily be used at night. Overall - 8/10

I hate myself for skipping this lovely feminine floral for such a long time,there was a tester bottle of this for couple of years in a department store I used to pass weekly but I never stopped by to give it a try At last,I received a free sample of it when I bought other perfumes My favorite perfume genre is oriental floral or oriental vanilla durind cold months and florals in spring and summer,so obviously I'm a floral girl,I'm into white florals(magnolia,lily,gardeni,...),roses,and some soft powdery violet florals(heliotrope,lilac,wisteria,...) Versace vasace pour femme is a lovely modern floral,this floral bouquet consists of lilac,wisteria,Jasmine,orchid,lotus..some fruit notes(guaca),not so dominant to my nose but adds a unique twist to floral combination and some musk and woods as base notes..florals are bright,subtle,soft and delicately sweet..very pretty,simple,feminine and elegant,smells like pure spring and as in you are sorrunded in a small garden full of radiant flowers..as someone said in previous reviews flowers are fresh,also warmed by sunlight,thanks to the warm,musky,cashmer base Versace pour femme is a youthful floral scent,for young,elegant ladies,it's really longlasting on my skin and has a good projection without being overwhelming.it can be a far cousin of Guerlain idylle,but less sharp,not smelling the same,the same feeling of smelling a huge flower bouquet If you're into floral scents and especially like lilac,don't miss this one ❤❤❤❤

Wow, i'm excited! Another perfume to bring up a wonderful memory! Its warm and sunny. I'm about 15, laying in the grass without a blanket, feeling the prickle if grass on my arms and legs. The stream is gurgling over rocks near by and when the breeze blows it is cool and damp. I brought my horse up on his long lead and i can hear him cropping grass and i hear his soft, snuffling breath as he eats. I feel his hoves on the ground and every once in a while he touches me with his velvet nose. My mother has the largest lilac bushes i have ever seen to this day. They were like small trees. And, as i was laying on the grass that day with the sun bright on my closed eyelids, i inhaled the scent of lilacs. Lilac is one of my favorite scents because if those glorious lilacs my mother had. Versace by Versace is a very strong lilac scent to me, but for me it is the strong, green, almost spicy scent if the real flower. When i smell it on my skin it is as if i'm sticking my nose right into a live flower. I love it! I also detect a mild berry fruitiness and light wood, which only intensified the memory for me since my parent's house is in a forest of maple and cedar trees and she has blue, black and raspberries as well as fruit trees. Its a very true scent to me, very real, no synthetic, cheap or chemical components as i get from many perfumes for some reason. It remains potent and bright on my skin with out being overpowering or souring. It is ranked in my top two!
