The absolute jewel of Moschino, undoubtedly Olivier Cresp’s masterpiece. What a pity the brand threw away its best ace. For me, it’s a perfume for special occasions; every time I wear it, I’m transported back to that magical final moment I shared with him. I can’t stand strong, avoirdupois, and overly sweet perfumes. Couture! is sweet in just the right measure. It’s sublime, elegant, subtle, with a potent floral scent mixed with woody citrus and a touch of refined vanilla. In reality, it’s an inexplicable, lordly scent. I was gifted it at 28, and now at 47, it’s still just as appropriate and sublime. It’s for a classic or simple woman who likes to stand out at special events, which is when I recommend it. It has good longevity and projection; it doesn’t go unnoticed without being invasive or vulgar. It’s for any season, but only for special occasions, not daily wear. The bottle is gorgeous, with a red velvet ribbon and an engraved button, and a golden heart cap. I’m not a perfumer, but I try to express what I feel every time I use it.
The jewel of Moschino, undoubtedly Olivier Cresp’s best creation for the brand. What a pity they discarded their best fragrance. For me, it is ideal for special occasions; every time I use it, that last magical moment comes alive. I cannot stand strong perfumes, avoirdupois or overly sweet ones. Couture! is sweet in just the right measure: sublime, elegant, subtle, with a potent floral blended with woody citrus and a touch of refined vanilla. It is an inexplicable scent, almost aristocratic. They gave it to me at 28 and at 47 it still seems equally suitable and sublime. It is for a classic, elegant or simple woman who likes to stand out at special events. It has good longevity and projection: it does not go unnoticed without being intrusive. It can be worn any time of year, but only for occasions, not daily. The bottle is very elegant, with a red velvet ribbon, engraved button and golden heart cap. I am not a perfumer, but I try to express what I feel every time I use it.
The scent can’t be explained in words; you have to feel it. Truthfully, I can’t identify the notes, more than saying I feel a citrus scent, a bit of a sting, but freshness, lots of freshness, a clean scent, subtle, fine, and long-lasting. It has good sillage and longevity.

I just bought it; it’s too rich to explain. It’s a scent on my skin for hours. It cost me a fortune as it’s no longer made, and anyone who has it asks for it as if it were gold. It’s quite a gentleman’s perfume, and I don’t regret what I paid, but I’ll use it for those special occasions, because when the bottle runs out, it will be a beautiful memory. It makes me very sad because it always happens to me with everything in my life; I have it and then I lose it again. Bad luck haunts me with good perfumes; I lose everything in love. It’s very disappointing that good perfumes are discontinued to throw away lovely, very elegant bottles filled with eau de toilette!
Hello, I just found this fragrance in Argentina, which is very difficult. A few years ago I sensed its aroma but can hardly remember much, only the pepper I perceive in my memory, and it was fantastic, but as the years passed, I can hardly remember it, and where they have it, there’s no tester; I don’t know if I should take it with my eyes closed.
I fell in love with it the moment I tested it on my skin; it is my perfume and it kills me to know they discontinued it and I can never use it again. I’ve been trying one after another for months looking for something similar or that identifies with me, but nothing so far. What a pity they stopped producing it; it always happens with the good ones, only the synthetics remain. A great loss for me.
I loved it from the day they tested it on my skin. I feel it’s MY PERFUME, and it makes me feel terrible knowing they discontinued it and I won’t be able to use it anymore. For months I’ve been trying one after another to find a similar one or identify with it, but for now, I haven’t succeeded. What a pity they don’t produce it anymore. It always happens with good perfumes; they’re slowly disappearing, leaving only synthetics. For me: a great loss.
Ayyy, I fell in love when I saw it in a magazine: opening the flap allowed me to test it, and it lasted years on me. I felt super identified with it, but I couldn’t buy it then, and now it’s impossible to get in Argentina, buuhhh.
I had it some time ago and the truth is it eventually tired me out because it was excessively sweet; the pepper scent splashed all over me. It has traces very similar to Si by Lolita, at least on my skin. Although it did not overly excite me, I get very angry when good perfumes are discontinued :-(. On the other hand, it is curious how mediocre and synthetic perfumes stay on the market for life :-S
I had it some time ago, and truthfully, I got tired of it being excessively sweet; the pepper scent splashed all over me. It has traces very similar to Lolita Lempicka’s Si, at least on my skin. Although it didn’t thrill me too much, I’m very angry that they stop making good perfumes :-(. On the other hand, it’s curious how mediocre synthetics keep going on for life :-S.
I searched and searched for this little jewel until I found it: it’s delicious, refined, and very much to my taste. It’s for confident women; if you have the opportunity, try it, it lasts a long time. I have a dress soaked with that scent, highly recommended!
It’s been one of my favourites since it came out. Rossella Jardini’s description is perfect: ‘an irresistible essence of life and pure joy’. I struggle to talk about each note because they’re so well mixed. Definitely it’s woody benzoin, sweet with a touch of pepper. For me, it represents the sweetness and strength of a woman: it’s strong but not overwhelming, on the contrary, energising. Couture! is unique, elegant, chic, and feminine. It’s not for everyone. It has good longevity and projection on my skin. What a pity Moschino left it. Whoever has it, I hope you enjoy it.
