Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Eau de Toilette

Yardley English Dahlia Eau de Toilette is a fresh, lightly fruity women's scent where citrus, florals and green tones lead; it has been discontinued. It opens with citrus notes, neroli and apple, which keep it bright and fruity. Rose, dahlia and peony form a soft floral heart. Patchouli, cedar and musk settle underneath as a woody base. Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so the scent stays close to the wearer. It suits calm, everyday wear. Yardley English Rose and Victorio & Lucchino Agua de Rocio have a close profile.

Red Power Intense

7.0

Ferrari · 2014

Floral · Sweet · Spicy

Ferrari Red Power Intense is a spicy, sweet fragrance for men, with floral, woody and resinous shading; it has been discontinued. Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate. The vote count is small, so this is only a rough impression. There is not enough voting on seasons or occasions to say when it suits best. It opens with nutmeg, red pepper and violet leaf, a spicy, slightly green start. In the heart, lavender leaf, patchouli and iris add a floral, earthy layer. The base of frankincense, amber and oud settles into a resinous, sweet and woody warmth.

Pompeii

8.0

Contes de Parfums · 2026

Floral · Spicy · Powdery

Contes de Parfums Pompeii is a floral and spicy unisex scent that ties clove and tuberose absolute to volcanic ash. Its longevity is rated moderate and its sillage good, though few people have voted so far, so these ratings are tentative. It does not lean toward either gender and sits comfortably on men and women alike. It opens with clove and wine. In the heart, tuberose absolute, volcanic ash and white blossoms come together, with the floral side resting on an earthy, smoky ground. The base of musk, amber and vanilla softens everything into a powdery, resinous warmth.

Sublime Tonka

7.6

Roberto Cavalli

Floral · Sweet · Gourmand

Roberto Cavalli Sublime Tonka is a unisex fragrance that balances a sweet, gourmand base with spice and smoky woods. The top opens spicy with Madagascan cinnamon, geranium and elemi resin. In the heart, frankincense, clary sage and Tabac Bourbon add a smoky depth. The base of tonka bean absolute, wheat bran absolute and copaiba balsam settles into a creamy, oriental sweetness. Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, though the sample is small, so the picture is tentative. Its dense, warm build suits cooler weather best. Essential Parfums Divine Vanille and Trussardi Amber Oud have a close profile.

Water Lily

7.1

Lanvin · 2021

Fresh · Floral · Aquatic

Lanvin Water Lily is a fresh, floral women's fragrance built around bergamot, pomegranate and pink water lily. Its longevity and sillage are rated good, though with few votes, so those ratings are tentative. Voters place it mostly in daytime, leisure and office wear, and far less in the evening or on a night out. It reads as a light, easygoing feminine scent. The opening of bergamot, pomegranate and pink grapefruit is bright and fresh. In the heart, lily of the valley, pink water lily and water jasmine give an aquatic floral feel. Musk, cedarwood and sandalwood in the base soften it and leave a creamy, lightly sweet trail.

Alchemie

6.9

Bottega Veneta · 2024

Green · Synthetic · Spicy

Bottega Veneta Alchemie is a unisex fragrance that sets the spicy freshness of nutmeg, Brazilian pink pepper and mandarin orange against a warm heart of leather, labdanum and myrrh. It opens with nutmeg and pink pepper up front, with mandarin softening their edge. The heart brings leather, labdanum and Somalian myrrh, and the scent turns oriental, smoky and leathery. Vetiver and sandalwood form a dry, green-tinged woody base. The overall impression is spicy and woody, with a slightly synthetic sheen. Marc-Antoine Barrois Encelade and Loewe 7 Anónimo have a close profile.

Potion Arsenic

7.7

Police · 2023

Floral · Fruity · Sweet

Police Potion Arsenic is a sweet, spicy and floral women's fragrance, its fruity and powdery side set against a woody, resinous base. Longevity and sillage are both rated moderate, though the number of votes is small, so that picture is tentative. No season or occasion votes are available, but the sweet, oriental build reads as feminine. The top opens with almond, cinnamon and coconut, sweet and spicy from the start. The heart of purple orchid, ylang-ylang and tobacco adds a soft floral note with a dry edge. In the base, myrrh, patchouli and tonka bean settle it into something resinous, earthy and warm.

Tango

8.6

Gissah · 2025

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

Gissah Tango is a fresh, gourmand women's fragrance that links a bright opening of mango, orange and honey pomelo to the sweetness of vanilla and caramel. In the top, mango, orange and honey pomelo give a citrusy, fruity and fresh start. In the heart, jasmine adds a soft floral touch while vanilla and caramel pull the scent towards a creamy, sweet side. In the base, sage, amber and cedarwood settle that sweetness onto a woody, slightly spicy ground. Its longevity is rated very strong and its sillage strong; every voter rates both highly, though the number of votes is still small. With its sweet, fruity build it reads as a feminine scent. Bujairami Fuego and Lattafa Ajayeb Dubai Portrait have a close profile.
