RomaDS
Clear, direct, and the best I’ve tried. Not for everyday wear, but perfect for celebrations and formal events. A love letter to perfumery, thank you Bulgari.
adryens
A masterpiece if you enjoy patchouli: it’s another level. It doesn’t overwhelm, yet lasts until the next day like a second skin. Ideal for dates or evenings, not for casual outings. Performance is ridiculously good and maximally seductive.
monsieurleather
Another giant in the La Gemme line. The patchouli here is creamy, delicious, and not acidic at all, far superior to other blends. It opens citrusy and evolves with a touch of incense and a very subtle jasmine. Lasts over 10 hours. Perfect for garden cocktails, romantic dinners, or elegant outdoor events. Seductive, with presence and bearing, just as Bulgari defines with that Sanskrit name.
Salix
I bought it excitedly for the notes and reviews, but honestly, it just doesn’t work for me. It has a very Chanel vibe, that citrus sweetness reminiscent of Bleu. I expected more incense, but the smoky note is barely noticeable; I almost imagine it. The longevity and sillage are good, but in my opinion, it’s not worth it: for half the price, you can buy a Bleu or Allure that perform equally well and give that sweet office touch.
