First of all I have to say that I was unfortunately a little disappointed. I was really looking forward to DUA and especially this fragrance. It was the first time that I ordered from DUA. I love summer scents and coconut, which is why I was already dreaming when I saw the scent pyramid.

The fragrance:
So very briefly said you get what you expect with the fragrance pyramid. Rum, lime and coconut. And more than enough of everything. I take the fragrance was relatively linear, which I find not bad at all. In itself, the individual components are quite balanced for my liking, but the scent itself is way too strong for me. I have given the first testing 2 sprays on the neck and one on my T-shirt. The scent was so penetrating in my nose that I smelled it directly. On the clothes lifts 1 spray loosely 4-5 days, so you can still notice it clearly. Unfortunately, the scent is not natural enough for me, something bothers me permanently. Can also be that the rum note smells too "cheap". Unfortunately, the whole thing reminds me less of a sunset on the Maldives, but more of a booze at the Ballermann. I think there are nevertheless some people who will have a lot of fun with this fragrance. My experience with DUA is unfortunately not as good as I had hoped, because all three fragrances were somehow too artificial for me.

For me, therefore, not blindbuy worthy, rather first ersouken a sample especially considering the delivery from the US and any customs fees.

Who is looking for a solid summer fragrance and with not too high expectations of the thing (caution: DUA is mMn too much hyped) is certainly not badly advised in Caribbean Waters. Especially in the summer at a party, the fragrance is certainly not bad. For work or formal occasions not to recommend.

Durability and sillage are top as described above. Especially for a summer fragrance. Me personally already too much. With 2 maximum 3 Sprühstößen one is well advised.

Flacon and packaging I find not at all appealing.

Price / performance is so lala for me. Considering the power one has already what for his money, my expectations of the fragrance were unfortunately not met.

A comparison to the original I can not make, because I have never smelled this.

Kind regards Benji ?♂️

Well, what can I say? You definitely do nothing wrong if you buy Versace Eros as a party fragrance. Alone the flacon is mMn very handsome and makes itself in any collection well. The scent is fresh/sweet thanks to the mint note at the beginning and in the later course I think I smell more vanilla and vetiver. The top note I feel "unfortunately" as the great thing about the fragrance, which is why he provides for me only quite briefly for enthusiasm. Subsequently, I find him quite basic. Durability and sillage are good, the counterpart will certainly perceive the fragrance - which I consider positive.

To the downsides of Versace Eros:

These have with the fragrance per se rather less to do, but are for me almost equivalent.
I work in a major German city in an area where I come into contact a lot and often with partygoers. When I tested the fragrance myself for the first time, associations from my professional everyday life immediately shot through my head. Unfortunately, not the best ones. I feel Versace Eros is the scent you get when you gather 10 partygoers in a closed room. Whether that's because one of them is wearing the scent and it stands out so much that it's the only one you smell, or whether it's simply a mishmash of all the youthful party scents, I can't for the life of me say. However, it is certain that one has smelled the fragrance felt a thousand times and just does not evoke any positive vibes with me (certainly also professionally conditioned).

To summarize and express it as objectively as possible: A good fragrance that is able to convince especially in terms of performance and price / performance ratio, but zero uniqueness but rather mainstream emanates. For young party goers well suited to smell good for a long time, but you will not stand out from the crowd with it mMn.

Sorry for the bad pun, but somehow I felt like it. After I have been immersed for some time in the world of perfumes and my girlfriend with it quite on the nerves, she now came - much to my delight - to me and asked me if I would not even look for women's perfumes. No sooner said than done, several samples were ordered for her after some research. La belle was extensively tested by her and especially by me and found to be good. Based on my review, you can see that "good" is actually an understatement. Especially considering that we are in the designer sector and it is a mainstream fragrance, in my opinion. Mainstream sounds now rather negative, but is actually meant positively, because the perfume is also somehow aimed at and that is the perfumers well succeeded.

The fragrance:
At first spraying overwhelms me a fruity sweetness, but already after 2 - 3 minutes something sorted, very intense, but for me still not too sweet comes along. I can not really smell out the pear at least directly at the beginning, much more reminds me something of strawberry? Well, anyway, I like the fruity-sweet very well and also the further course, in which the vanilla then comes more and more, I find very attractive. The fragrance has a good balance and doesn't slip too far into the gourmand for me, even if it has corresponding notes. All in all, a very nice feminine, fruity-sweet, warm fragrance.

I don't feel the fragrance is childish/youthful, but I think it suits young/young-at-heart women more - maybe up to 35.Anyway, I wouldn't buy it for my grandmother.... H/S are both good, not over the top but still solid. On me he lifts funnily enough a good hour longer, than on my girlfriend.

For me, a clear buy recommendation, especially considering the purchase price. PS: The bottle can definitely also be seen

First of all: The fragrance would have definitely earned a point more from me, if the scent perception would not be a subjective thing. I try times nevertheless as objectively as possible - with small subjective detours - to explain you my impression. By the way, this is my first comment here and I would also like to note that I do not presume to have a super nose or to know me in the world of perfumes particularly well.

Now for the actual comment: what can I say? I like it, but I also like not liking it. Sure sounds weird when you first read it, but it is.

The scent itself smells very high quality to me from the first spray. Definitely a plus! Nothing smells synthetic or stands out unpleasantly. In general, you can say that the fragrance is very smooth, which may also be the reason for its great popularity. It starts off very powdery, smelling like fresh laundry and then veers into what I consider a pleasant sweetness. I really can't fault the scent and like it too. But just that slick, that "Mr. Perfect" aura that this scent gives off kind of makes me not want to like it. I'm certainly no Mr. Perfect and don't want to be one, which is probably why this fragrance just doesn't seem to suit me. Or do I not like that it suits me nevertheless? I think that's where my personal dilemma lies: the scent has nothing to dislike nothing overbearing nothing standing or synthetic. Really EVERYONE can wear it. He is for me but just too clean and somehow charackterlos - in the most positive sense!

The whole thing should not be a verriss - on the contrary! I have the highest respect for this fragrance and greatest respect to the / the perfumers and I somehow do not manage to get rid of him, although I actually want it. I got carried away writing this comment because I believe I am not alone in my sheer schizophrenic attitude towards the fragrance.

Durability and sillage are definitely good (of course, not obtrusive - that could anecken ?) and also price / performance are absolutely fair considering the good quality and the "everybody's Darling" property of the fragrance.

About comments/criticism to my contribution I am pleased! Kind regards and thank you for the friendly reception here in the community!
