Fragrance Reviews by situazionauta

Quite good, much better than the masculine version, at least more various and interesting. Starting with ordinary fresh top notes soon reveals a sweet and seducing flower heart, that takes you slowly on a soft carpet, as a relaxing shower in the breezy sunshine heat. Not much original (it reminds of shower gel), but good and quite easy to wear. For a summer dinner on the beach.

Spicy, warm and woody fragrance. Not bad, quite ordinary; not much else to say. For a middle-class single man, as trendy as tasteless.

Earthy and sharp, with an oriental vanilla bottom. Too spicy and woody, easy to appreciate but quite hard to wear; sensual and dark, thrilling and mysterious, animal and almost disturbing. Ends on a quite ordinary spicy/leather bottom. Not a masterpiece, but curious.

Starting as an ordinary "aldehydate", it soon shows its grandeur: full and voluptuos flowers, amber and vanilla on the sweet, powdered and sensual bottom line. A good fragrance, smart and too much sensual, thrilling and quite classic. A seducing firework, on the right woman.

Not a masterpiece, but a good fragrance. Sweet and soft top notes with a well-built unique heart, ending through a quiet and warm atmosphere. Surely not an original perfume, quite good as a present for your colleague or your son's wife.

A masterpiece, the fragrance that made me become a Divine-addicted. I have always been too critic about men's "fresh" fragrances, they always seem to me quite boring and conventional. This is actually a "fresh" perfume too, but a unique way of "freshness"; is fresh as a green north meadow after a rainy afternoon, dancing in a light grey breeze, drops falling from the fresh leaves. A cold watercolour picture of the French north coast on a mid-november day. Melancholy with a touch of smile. The central and charming iris note brings the first fresh and light notes (lavender, orange, juniper) gently through a fairy violette to the soft ending carpet of vetiver and muscs. I know that these words could make it appear as a "normal" good fragrance; believe me, it's not.

A mistery to me. I tried to smell it many times; on stripes, on my arm, I put it on my friend's arm and on my father's neck. I was trying to find out where was the problem; how could I not appreciate this famous, classical "masterpiece" in men fragrances? Actually, I do; I hate it. Each time I smell it (any time I see it in shops I do it, still hoping on a divine enlightment) the same imagine comes suddendly in my eyes; a brown, dirty dog drenched with whisky. I know that this strong, leather-animal line of men fragrances is hard to wear, and maybe I am not able to imagine it on the "right" person. But considering it as it is, smelling it on a neutral white strip without imaging a hypotetical man wearing it, I cant' stand it; all of its notes are on the same tone, a stinking and boring chaos of wet leather, the nightmare of a pub-owner's dog.

A mid-level manager waiting for his plane in an airport; this is Bulgari pour homme. As Fresh, lasting and smart as conventional, boring and monotone. If that's your idea of perfume, supermarkets are full of deodorants; better waste that money on those.

This juice should be classified as the "idea" of a perfume. I've tried it both on arm and on strip, and the impression has been the same: too fresh, surely charming, but actually too light and evanishing. Reading the composition of the fragrance you discover a plenty of notes that come to your nose only for some minutes, not more, like a suggestion. I'm not talking only about the top ones (conventional orange). That's why in my opinion this is just an "idea" of a perfume, or a "souvenir" if you want. Nothing more than a good, fresh, sunny eau de cologne (but pretending, as the price tells you, to be a parfum).

A masterpiece in the sky of floral bouquets, an immense, balanced and iridescent cathedral of sweet and charming flowers and woods. The name perfectly suits the fragrance; a dream starting with jasmine smiling notes, ending on a long flower-vanilla soft carpet. Perfect, long-lasting melody. One of the fragrances that sometimes make me dream to change place and time (and sex).

Artful idea; charm the sea-lovers audience bringing them the "authentic" sea smell in a bottle, to wear in the grey city chaos. The idea itself is not bad, a bit trivial but not worse than others. And the fragrance too, not bad, a bit minimal, actually too similar to a blue morning, a long white coast on a mid august afternoon. Salty, fresh, sensual. Too "trendy". The point is; is this a perfume? There's nothing else but that, the central "sea" note. The fragrance tastes good, a relaxing balance of light notes; but, is it a perfume? Such a solitary and boring one-way smell is maybe good for a car fragrance, not for a man perfume.

This bottle brings you the smell of Flowers' heaven, where only the best, sweetest and sensual flowers go to sleep. No words allowed on this fragrance; just a blushing smile.
