Beautiful
I’m not a huge fan of Bvlgari perfume in general. They’re usually too strong for me or make me sneeze, so I was hesitant to try Riva Solare. I was sent a small sample and tried it one afternoon. Expecting the worst, I was shocked to experience how incredibly lovely this perfume is!
I noticed the scent of osmanthus more than anything, but it is balanced by orange blossom. The musk is there, which is what makes it so lovely. Without it I’m not sure it would be so appealing.
Comparing it to Jo Malone Osmanthus Blossom I actually like Riva Solare better. Osmanthus is a hit or a miss; it can be too much of a good thing. Here in Riva Solareits balanced quite nicely.
Sillage is good, about 3 feet. It’s not overbearing, but simple. Longevity for me on a hot day is 4 hours, but I can still smell it lightly for up to seven hours.
I would actually buy this one!
