Eau de Toilette
Versace Gianni Versace Eau de Toilette opens with aldehydes and bergamot, moves into a floral heart of tuberose, jasmine and gardenia, and dries down on myrrh and amber; it is spicy, powdery and chypre in feel. It has been discontinued.
The top holds aldehydes, fruity notes, bergamot and spices. In the heart, orris root joins tuberose, carnation, jasmine, gardenia and narcissus in a rich floral bloom. The base leans on myrrh, amber, sandalwood, leather, patchouli and oakmoss, leaving a sweet, resinous, slightly smoky chypre.
Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and evenings or nights out. It reads feminine and classic. Salvador Dali Dali and Krizia Teatro alla Scala have a close profile.
