Perfume of the Day

Versace previous scents were very middle-of-the-road for me. I didn’t love, or hate them . All that changed with the release of Versaces Infusion. Versaces Perfume. It couldn’t be more different from the ambery richness of Versaces's original perfume. On application, there’s almost nothing. It takes about thirty seconds to warm to the skin, and start up with a clean floral/citrus topnote. It’s bright, it almost purrs, and eventually the benzoin (this note reminds me of Kenzo Flower), incense, and galbanum notes emerge. It’s more of a winter scent and I can see myself considering the fullsize at that time. It’s not a classic Iris scent, nor is it particularly similar to a recent perfume of the day, Equistrius. Available at Nordstrom and Neiman Marcus. At very low prize for the smallest size, it’s not a bad investment

Happy 2008!
