Monarch / Essential Blend

Vanessa Megan

Floral · Green · Sweet

Vanessa Megan Monarch / Essential Blend is a floral and green women's fragrance that sits between sweet and earthy. Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though few voters have rated them, so treat those figures as tentative. Voters pick it most for leisure and daily wear, and a fair number also suggest it for business and evening. Lavender opens it with a fresh, herbal edge. At the heart, ylang-ylang, rose and geranium form a floral core, softened by spicy, creamy and sweet touches. Patchouli settles underneath as a woody, earthy base. Its profile is close to Czech & Speake Rose and Spiritual Sky (FR) Patchouli Rose.

Autumn Afternoon

6.4

Vanessa Megan

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Vanessa Megan Autumn Afternoon is a fresh, sweet women's fragrance that pairs mandarin orange with the warm, earthy tones of patchouli and Peru balsam; it has been discontinued. The scent reads as a single whole: mandarin orange brings a citrusy, fruity brightness, and lavender nudges it in a floral direction. Patchouli lays an earthy base, while Peru balsam adds a resinous, creamy, sweet softness. Spicy touches stay in the background. Voters find the longevity moderate and the sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin and does not project far. That suits a quiet, understated everyday wear. The number of votes is small, so these impressions should be taken loosely. It is positioned as a women's fragrance.

Limelight

6.6

Vanessa Megan

Fresh · Citrus · Green

Vanessa Megan Limelight is a discontinued women's fragrance that pairs a fresh, green citrus character with a sweet, fruity softness. Longevity is moderate and sillage is weak, so it stays close to the skin and leaves a quiet trail. The number of ratings is small, so these figures are only a rough guide. The notes read as one whole: mandarin orange, orange and lime build a bright citrus body, while lemon tea adds a light, refreshing edge. Fresh, citrus and green accords lead, with sweet, fruity and creamy touches softening the freshness. Lush Fun Times and Hermès Aroma d'Orange Verte have a close profile.

Darling

7.0

Vanessa Megan

Citrus · Floral · Fruity

Vanessa Megan Darling is a feminine scent that sets citrus and floral freshness against a sweet, powdery, creamy texture; it has been discontinued. Its longevity is moderate and its sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin rather than filling a room. With few votes behind these ratings, they are a rough guide rather than a firm verdict. Blood orange and neroli give it a bright, citrusy start, while ylang-ylang supplies the floral body. Clove adds a spicy warmth and vetiver sits in the background as a dry base. The overall feel is sweet and fruity, with a powdery, creamy finish. Nobile 1942 Perdizione and Guerlain Mayotte have a close profile.
