So you're tempting me to write a review again after two years of abstinence. Not many people manage that (anymore).

For the 2nd time I was able to get hold of you intact and you enchanted me again in your wonderful world.

Starting with authentically fresh (tart) sweet red fruits (raspberries, strawberries and plums) you enter into a wonderful symbiosis with tuberose and red roses to finally find the perfect harmony with amber and vanilla

You are fruity-floral-opulently sweet. Opulent in a pleasant way.

I don't smell any synthetics on you, you seem very authentic.

You are the Italian femme fatale in a bright red evening dress with perfect charisma and attitude, plus a seductive aura that turns many a head.

Unique in your way you know how to inspire.

Your beautiful, elegant bottle shape with the signature of your creator, fashion icon Gianni Versace, also makes you very special and a timeless fragrance creation in any collection.

Everything else that concerns the fragrance has nothing to do with sports.

A green-woody-herbal-bitter fig/peppermint tea blend, although the tea has been standing for a few days and not everyone will like the fig. A certain synthetics
resonates naturally in the whole.

The prelude is briefly citric-fresh-bitter-sweet, this is of very short duration and still the best of the fragrance.

But that's what fooled many people at first, including me

No, unfortunately the scent is really not a masterpiece.
Nor is it citric fresh.
That's just wrong.

Lancôme magic noir opens the scent altar,
into a dark magic world,
which has many surprises in store

You will find yourself in the dark magic forest, surrounded by berries and dark flowers.
Earth with moss and animal heaviness,
nobody's gonna get in your way that fast

As soon as the fog lifts, you'll wake up,
then you'll soon realize it was all just a dream full of black magic.

You've explained it to yourself,
this trip was worth it,
to wear something new
and to weigh the dark magic from now on.

A very eye-catching bottle contains a special green fragrance for women.

Insect spray from Diesel as perfume ?
That's the first association when you see the bottle.

It is rather rarely to be found, so I see this fragrance also as a collector's item.

Unfortunately mine is missing the striking lid,
it may have already been broken and disposed of.

To the fragrance:
I can join the previous speaker
At the beginning briefly fruity, then you smell a lot of clove with cloves and cinnamon.
Yeah, you can smell the cinnamon in the background

A flowery, green spicy sweet scent awaits the wearer. Relatively synthetically but made interesting.
In the middle part it remains quite rigid without development.

Amber and vanilla with woods (sandalwood, cedar) join in the base.
This base is actually smelling with me.
It's exactly the same sandalwood as in Gucci Rush for Men. To be perceived clearly and distinctly.

A fragrance for freaky people of younger age
I am glad to have found him in good condition.

In my 2 years of parfumo activity, I have learned a lot about fragrances and tested many things

At first you think this fragrance is the holy grail. Everyone wants it, it's coveted and expensive.
That's what I thought at first too.

But in the end it is not about having something in his collection for others,
but to find his own style and show individuality.
After all, you don't have to chase every trend, not even with fragrances.

Here they tried to create a spicy green fragrance at the end of the 90s with modern elements for the new millennium
These elements are flowers and leather.

If you've had a taste of the real vintage classic world of the 80s, this Envy looks relatively normal
He's okay, but he's not the greatest scent hit


For me his composition unfortunately does not work:

The flowers, especially the rose, mixed with leather are alarming in my nose
Somehow I don't like the green Envy that much, it has something bitter-sweet-acidic that doesn't harmonize very well with or even through the green spice parts.

It is slightly sweet, but above all strongly floral and leathery. That doesn't go together very well in my nose. Vanilla is very subtle in the background. A very mature, strong, loud fragrance for men from 40-50+ one might think. A slight old baking is not to be denied.

To wear this fragrance at the age of 20 to 30 years would seem ridiculous and inappropriate to me, just to follow a trend.

In conclusion, it is definitely not worth 400€ / 100ml.
