Liquid Diamonds

Liquid diamonds is the perfect name for this fragrance IMO. A diamond looks clean, cold and sparkly and that just about sums up how this fragrance makes me feel. The image I get is of being surrounded by snow covered mountains with crisp cold air and standing at the shores of a gently flowing river or lake with crystal clear, cold water from the melting snow. This is a cold scent in the sense that it smells refreshing and invigorating. I do get the very expensive shampoo vibe that a lot of people are talking about but what sets it apart from other 'clean' scents is the absence of any citrus notes I think. My nose picks up peonies mainly followed by an almost watery rose and other florals grounded by a clean musk and very subtle patchouli. Longevity is about 5-6 hours with moderate projection. I really enjoy this fragrance, even more so because I got this for an absolute steal!

Liquid Diamonds by Viktor & Rolf smells of crisp peony and soft-spicy roses with the most unique musk, it will trick your nose! This is clean and pure – makes me think of cold spring water! I get a cologne vibe in the opening but it tries down to be very feminine. I love this whole illusion line of fragrances! The art and concepts behind the fragrances were so well done and as a musk fan, Liquid Diamonds was my favorite!

love it and cant wait to wear it in the summer as it smells so fresh like you just got out the shower. I know a lot of people are talking about how it smells like soap but really sometimes that is not bad if you want to smell fresh like a diamond. I must say that just one spray goes a long way so even if its expensive you wont need a lot. My boyfriend loves it so that's a plus. Highly recommend it!

I just have a sample but this is on my wish list and can’t wait to purchase it. It smells like you took a shower in a fancy hotel and are wearing a plush white fluffy robe. Fresh and clean but a super luxurious fresh and clean. Like a relaxation room in a spa. I usually purchase gourmands and sweet scents or fruity florals so this is not my typical go to but I’m in love and I have to have it.

Guys, this smells exactly like its name. If diamonds could be liquid, this is what they would smell like. Beautiful, sophisticated, translucent, fresh, white, sparkling. Overall a beautiful, beautiful scent. It is from Viktor & Rolf's Magic private collection so you can imagine the price, but it is so worth it.

Wow! Floral and musky make for a great combination. I fell in love with this fragrance immediately after I smelled it. Soft musk with peony and rose. Not a strong rose/musk just the right amount. Ylang-ylang, jasmine and patchouli round it off in the background. Beautiful!

Clean and soapy scent. Smells like a rose scented soap.i get some harshness when freshly sprayed but it settles & becomes smoother over time. Great for work spaces as you will just smell clean.

i got a sephora sample years ago and it smelled like b&bw hello beautiful if it was good (without the deoderant smell). i forgot this existed omg it's the perfect classy fresh floral scent.

If Lancome Idole and Replica Lazy Sunday Morning had a baby, it would smell like Liquid Diamonds.

I was surprised by tandem_4x4's review just below mine. I like this scent, so I want to reveal its secret. I found out that this fragrance contains huge amounts of Cetalox by analysis. I'm surprised that there is really someone there who can feel the fact instinctively. Some people said this one smells like a cheap soap, but actually, it contains the expensive ambergris chemical and a bomb dose of it. Therefore, it is a really expensive fragrance, not like other exaggerated perfumes with marketing hypes and cheap ingredients (e.g, Iso E super. Of course, Iso E super is also a great chemical ingredient, and also used in this fragrance.). and that is probably the reason why this is discontinued. The price that is spent on an item doesn't mean that item is good, nor fit many people, nor your taste, nor guarantee success. The one thing is certain about this fragrance is that they didn't save money but tried to make a true luxury. @coffeefifofum Don't be so sure about your nose. You cannot smell something, but that doesn't mean it is not there, whether you believe it or not.

Liquid Diamonds is likable, but pretty generic. It's a very clean, fresh-feeling floral fragrance that comes off a bit soapy with how clean it is. It's a bit fizzy as well, probably from the pink pepper. To me, this is a feminine, quintessential office scent. You can find this type of scent and DNA in many other fragrances, off the top of my head some of the Chanel Chance flankers have this vibe. Overall, certainly a pleasing scent that people will not find offensive, but you can probably get something similar for a cheaper price. It is generic, whether that's a good or bad thing, is up to your preferences.

It's a fresh soapy, washing detergent type of smell. I loved it when just sprayed: soft floral, a little powdery, generally similar to Clean fragrances, or even Coach (with the black label). But it lasts just as long as any scent from a soap bar would last. It does leave a soft musky trace on the skin for a few hours, however this is not enough for me from a perfume. I won't even bother with another sample. I need to remember to pick a day and kill off the sample I have.

A sparkly clean rose. Youthful, energizing. It may have a similarity to fabric softener or soap. It’s very feminine, or perhaps I should describe it as very girly. I do like it but in small doses, otherwise it may backfire and turn cloying and outdated. Now for the price...I’m not so sure.

I second the very first review here. Smells expensive and clean, but also like cold water in a mineral laden cave. Then the rose becomes more obvious. Feels like a great palette cleanser for perfumistas like me that wear heavier, darker scents.

fresh green and sweet watery floral. smells like shower-off scent. Remind me light version of Chloe's and Pink bottles of Narciso Rodriguez. Watery Rose Centered(Cetylia). It is typical but I like it.

Very soapy laundry detergent, very clean and fresh.

DISCONTINUED FRAGRANCE REVIEW NO.#15 / 10. Do you want to smell like laundry powder, Perfumites? Well, lucky you. Viktor & Rolf have got you covered. Reviewer after reviewer will add their two cents about perfumes that smell "clean", "fresh", "sharp", and "clinical". Dudes and dudettes - THIS is where I come in with my own minute pocket money and say "Liquid Diamonds" is THE MOST laundry powder scent I have EVER come across. Not laundry *liquid*. Oh no. Absolutely laundry *powder*. I get that stinging sharpness that comes from crushed laundry powder granules. It opens light and airy and quite feminine. The peony and rose are obvious, but they do quickly (like 2 minutes) give way to that uber-clinical sharp scent that lingers the entire time. I assume it's due to a pink pepper feeling vengeful. It dries to a nice musk, but nothing to write home about. Longevity is about 2 hours, honestly. Sillage is decent at first, but becomes a scent scent in less than 10 minutes. You have to spray a lot...which is saying something for my little 10ml sample. It reminds me Byredo's "Blanche", but slightly softer and ever-so slightly sweeter, and definitely evokes a furious need to clean my clothes and linen. So, there you have it. In conclusion: expensive laundry powder. Not repurchase-worthy. *** Kitty rating: 4/10.

The opening is gorgeous and sparkling like a diamond - just beautiful! I get a whiff of the same peony that's in Estee Lauder Pleasures, a note I love. But it vanishes pretty quickly, I wish it would stick around. Another reviewer called this a "dude fume"...and while I agree there is a unisex quality to it after the dry down, it does NOT smell "masculine" like a traditional men's cologne, at all. It takes a few minutes to detect the rose, lilac, and jasmine. When they come through, they smell beautiful, especially the lilac. I can pick out the different flowers. Really well made! Usually I have an aversion to rose (headache and sneezing) but not in this case. Also this has patchouli leaf as a base note, which can also give me a headache, but so far I'm fine with this formulation. It takes a while for the musk to kick in. Predominantly a floral fragrance and a classy, grown-up one. After about an hour of wear it is reminding me a bit of Chanel Chance Eau Vive.

This fragrance smells like a young woman after morning gym and shower in a 5 stars hotel. Young, clean, healthy, juicy, successful. It smells very very familiar, but hard to say what exactly it is. I would love to wear it everyday to work, but I am sensitive to ambroxan, and this one contains a bomb doze of it, so much that it bells like 100 aldehydes in it. Projection and longevity are good though.

This just smells like pure soap. All I get from this is an ultra clean smell. It is very sharp. Not what I imagined diamonds smelling like. If you want to smell like you just took a shower then this did last a long time at least.
