Zen

Tan Giudicelli · 1999

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Tan Giudicelli Zen is a fresh, green women's fragrance that suits spring and summer days; it has been discontinued. Green tea, violet, narcissus and almond read as one whole. A citrusy, green freshness leads, while violet and almond wrap it in a powdery, lightly sweet softness, and a woody tone stays in the background. Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer; it is worn mostly for daily use, then for the office and leisure. Most voters call its character feminine, followed by modern. Paul Smith Paul Smith Rose and Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Cherry Blossom have a close profile.

Annam

8.1

Tan Giudicelli · 2000

Fresh · Floral · Sweet

Tan Giudicelli Annam is a fresh, creamy floral built on rice, milk and tuberose, made for women and now discontinued. In Annam, rice and milk lay down a soft, creamy base, while tuberose and lily add a floral brightness on top. Musk and woody notes turn it powdery with a faint oriental warmth, and the sweetness stays in the background without weighing down the fresh feel. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Most voters pick spring and summer, with fall not far behind. Leisure and daily wear lead, though business and evening settings also get votes. It reads as a feminine perfume.

L'Ambre Vanille

7.8

Tan Giudicelli · 1997

Floral · Sweet · Gourmand

Tan Giudicelli L'Ambre Vanille is a sweet, gourmand oriental built around a floral core, made for women. Its notes aren't split into top, heart and base; the scent reads as one whole from start to finish. Amber and vanilla give it a warm, soft sweetness, while jasmine adds a floral lift. Spicy and woody accents sit in the background, a powdery feel softens the whole, and an animalic trace adds depth. It has been discontinued, and it suits those who enjoy oriental and gourmand fragrances.
