Ungaro Diva EDP - two different flacons?

Hi Ladies of fine scents,

some time ago, I asked you for some suggestions for my wife´s wardrobe.
Besides of Habanita etc., I blind bought her Ungaro Diva EDP; really nice scent but a bit too slight, it lacks in longevity and sillage!
I noticed that our Diva came in a tall flacon, similiar to Opium EDT, not in the common "Byzantine style" one. (Sorry, I´m not able to post pictures! - my dullness or basenotes settings?!)
Does anyone of you connoisseurs know the difference between these two bottlings?
Is Ungaro Diva in its current formulation such a lightweight?

Thank you for your efforts,
Ciao

I have never smelled the one in that shape bottle - only the edp and the edt in the usual curvy bottles. The edp to my nose is fairly potent juice, so I'm wondering what is actually in the tall flacon. I find the edt and edp to be remarkably different from each other, and perhaps because I don't like the smell of the edt I find it painfully tenacious and penetratingly sharp and potent. The edt is screechy- it's not just an insipid version of the edp, but quite a different composition. The edp is quite reasonably priced especially in tester bottles on ebay or perhaps try a miniature- you can compare the scents for yourself that way and it may well be worth it. I didn't discover this until years after it was released and I'm so glad I found it- I adore the fragrance in the edp version.
