I’ve been testing decants for weeks and today I picked one at random. As soon as I applied it, I felt I’d smelled something similar before. I spent hours trying to remember which one, and now I can confirm it bears a strong resemblance to Dior’s Jasmin des Anges from the Privée collection. I absolutely loved the scent.
I’ve been testing decants for weeks and today I picked one at random. As soon as I applied the perfume, I felt I’d already smelled something similar; I spent hours trying to remember which one in my collection matched, and now I have it clear: for me, it smells quite a bit like Jasmin des Anges from Dior’s Privée collection. I absolutely loved the scent.
Lucrethia is that girl in jeans and an oversized jumper, the one who goes unnoticed but has a spark. She’s fun, a bit of a foodie, and you just want to be around her all the time. Her opening is cheerful thanks to pink pepper and laurel. Although the notes sound like a recipe, it’s nothing like that; after a while, it smells like Black Opium: coffee, cocoa, and amber. What gives it strength is the clove and jasmine, preventing it from being a book gourmand. The vanilla and benzoin make it cheeky and spiced, perfect for good company. It’s sophisticated without being over-the-top, ideal for evening wear. Would I buy a bottle? Not while I have Black Opium. Blind buy? Only if you like Black Opium-style fragrances. Scent 🏵🏵🏵 Longevity 🏵🏵🏵.

This is my first V Canto perfume and I bought it blind after reading reviews and notes, and I’m super happy. From the start, I notice fresh, delicious white florals, especially jasmine, honeysuckle, and petit grain over an amber and slightly resinous base. I don’t detect the pear, coffee, or cocoa, and the vanilla barely appears, so it doesn’t smell like Black Opium or Hundred Silent Ways. It’s a very cheerful white floral, ideal for hot days, clearly feminine, with beautiful packaging. Its trail and projection are excellent and it lasts between 7 and 9 hours. I recommend it to lovers of fresh, original florals.
This is my first V Canto perfume and I bought it blind after reading reviews and notes. I’m thrilled with how it evolves on my skin: at first, I notice fresh, delicious white florals, especially jasmine, honeysuckle, and petit grain, over an amber and slightly resinous base. I don’t detect the pear, coffee, or cocoa, and the vanilla barely appears. It doesn’t remind me of Black Opium or Hundred Silent Ways; it’s a very cheerful white floral, ideal for warm weather and daytime wear. It’s clearly feminine with beautiful packaging. Its trail and projection are excellent, and the longevity is acceptable, lasting between 7 and 9 hours. Totally recommended for lovers of fresh, original florals.
