  Although I’m a lover of strong perfumes, this one seemed excessive to me. Perhaps I didn’t wear it in cold weather or at night. It reminded me of the smell of a wheat field in August at two in the afternoon, of dry grass.

  EPICUREAN: Another example of perfumes I either enjoy or need a holiday from. It’s warm, complex, and concentrated (even though it’s an EDT), recalling Coco, Obsession, Opium, or Aromatics Elixir, despite them having nothing in common. I believe it’s the most universal, sweetest, and politically correct version. It embodies the feeling of being warmly welcomed in person. It features spices (notably nutmeg), resins, flowers (especially carnation), plants, wood, musk, and vanilla, the latter being very prominent alongside amber. Its creamy, dark, and deep sweetness is characteristic, though it has a bucolic herbal medicinal twist, a light spiced touch like the clove in Coco, and a cinnamon-like note reminiscent of Opium, without incense or burnt ash. It’s less heavy and more luminous. The trail recalls Obsession but is sweeter and more feminine; it’s a light version with exceptional longevity. Anecdote: it’s the winter perfume of a young, restless, and smoking friend; it blends well with her tobacco aura, compensating for that smoky vibe with its sweetness. Objectively, it conveys interesting maturity, a sensual personality that embraces you like a woolly jumper. USAGE: Winter, formal or informal. More nocturnal, though if the personality allows, daily. Despite being an EDT, it lasts a long time and leaves a trail, so moderation is needed in enclosed spaces.

  Moschino is the only tender oriental I own. It’s ‘refined’ because it’s balanced and contained; it smells of soap and a 1980s dressing table, which I adore. Without overanalyzing it, I feel it brings a vintage air that seduces me. Its trail and longevity aren’t as potent as they were thirty years ago (my sister had one and it was much sharper, or perhaps I’ve lost my sense of smell—I’m not sure), but it has that pre-previous era feel when girls had a signature scent. It aims to be everyday yet special. It evokes a shy girl with character. For the price, it’s a gem; it brings back memories of my recent past but feels modern, soft, and delicate.

  I like this perfume, but there are days when it overwhelms me. It strikes me as very similar to CK Obsession, though I prefer that one. In Moschino, that initial note I can’t quite identify gives off a cheap cologne vibe that doesn’t suit me, but it vanishes within fifteen minutes and the rest smells lovely. Once the opening fades, it still resembles Obsession: this one is warmer, whereas the Moschino version is fresher. It’s not for everyone, nor for gifting unless you’re sure they’ll enjoy it. I like it a lot—strong and without any sweetness. I’d give it a 7.

  Mental pampas. In my second year of A-Level, I had a girlfriend who wore CK Obsession, and I have it etched in my mind as a hypersexualised, powdery, low, dirty, spiced, and sandy aroma, with a hypnotic serenity. It was organic, woody, ambered, and resinous; mane, rosin, pernambuco, and animal fat. Back then, my sister used this Moschino, and they never seemed similar to me. This Moschino left a tremendous trail; it was much more electrifying and scandalous, very liqueur-like. A witch’s potion for a fashion victim, ironic and fun, with a herbal, balsamic, and slightly sweet blend, absolutely radiant in its darkness. A golden perfume but far from classic elegance; rather, a postmodern baroque luxury. Like a dark bathroom with patterned wallpaper and mirrors in an expensive nightclub, or the lobby of the Trump Tower. It’s a good girl by day and a bad girl by night, defined, evident, and overwhelming. On that day, with its touches of spiced carnation, I saw in it the uninhibited granddaughter of the delicate L’Air du Temps. The 75ml bottle in front of me is half-empty; she bought it in the late 90s, and, incredible as it may seem, the scent is intact, identical to how I remembered it. I swear to you, not a trace of rancidity. The fixative is wonderful: a single spray lasts for hours. I tried it yesterday and wouldn’t classify it as ‘fresh and spiced’. The trail lasts for hours; it’s slow and delicious. That feeling of a herbal witch’s elixir. Subtle nutmeg, flowers, and in the foreground, I don’t know if it’s galbanum or calendula, delivering a wonderful herbal personality from minute one. It doesn’t recall anything pastoral; it results in something urban and sensual. The blend settles down, clear and distinct. After four or five hours, its floral, spiced, and ambered taints remind me of a young, innocent version of Coco. The mixture evolves slowly into an amber-patchouli combo that recalls the final phase of NR for Him when the mud dries and the sun appears. After eight hours, a creamy amber, slightly spiced, with a bit of dirt and a sandy air. That smell of a violin and bow. I was smelling it on her. And this morning, when I woke up, it was as if I’d gone to sleep with her again. Despite showering and perfuming my chest, 24 hours later I still have a bit of her on my wrist. Tremendous fixative. Despite the trail, I think it’s totally unisex. I’ve already asked permission; this is going straight into my collection. Very different from Moschino’s bestsellers; it captures the brand’s youthful, fun spirit well, with doses of innocence and eccentricity.

  Mental notes. In my second year of high school, I had a girlfriend who wore CK Obsession, and I have it etched in my memory as a hyper-sexualised, powdery, understatedly feminine, slightly dirty, spiced, sandy scent with a hypnotic serenity. An aroma that is organic, woody, ambered, and resinous. Horses’ hair, rosin, pernambuco, animal fat. At that time, my sister used this Moschino from time to time, and I never thought they were similar. She left a tremendous trail the moment she left the house. This Moschino was much more electrifying and scandalous, very liquid. A witch’s potion for a fashion victim, ironic and fun with its herbal, balsamic, and slightly sweet blend, absolutely radiant in its darkness. A golden perfume but far from classic elegance, more like postmodern baroque luxury. Like a dark bathroom with patterned wallpaper and mirrors in an expensive club, or the lobby of Trump Tower. A perfume for a good girl by day and a bad girl by night, defined, evident, and overwhelming. Back then, with its spiced clove touches, I saw in it the unbuttoned granddaughter of the delicate L’Air du Temps. The 75ml bottle I have is half full; she bought it in the late 90s, and amazingly enough, the scent is intact, identical to how I remember it. I swear to you, not the slightest hint of rancidity. The longevity is tremendous; a single spray lasts hours. I tried it yesterday and wouldn’t classify it as ‘spiced freshness’. The dry-down is slow and delicious. Again, that sensation of a witch’s herbal elixir. Subtle nutmeg, flowers, and in the foreground, I don’t know if it’s galbanum or calendula, giving a wonderful herbal personality from minute one. It doesn’t recall anything pastoral; it’s urban and sensual. The blend settles, becoming clear and distinct. After four or five hours, its spiced, poisonous floral airs of amber remind me of a younger version of Coco. The mix evolves into an amber-patchouli combo that reminds me of that final phase of NR for Him where the mud dries and the sun appears. At eight hours, a creamy amber, slightly spiced, with some dirt, sandy air, and powdery notes. That smell of a violin and bow. I was smelling it on her. And this morning, upon waking, it was as if I’d slept with her again. Despite showering and perfuming my chest, 24 hours later I still have a trace of her on my wrist. Tremendous longevity.

  I’m editing my review because I’ve tried the vintage version and there’s a difference. The old formula is softer, more liquid, and sweeter. That horrible smell of bad cologne doesn’t exist in this version.

  I gifted it today. I can’t stand it. Not even as a room spray did I like it… sigh.

  I gifted it today. I can’t handle it. Not even as a room freshener did I like it… Buffff.

  I kept a little bit of this rich elixir, which is now 20 years old and beautifully fermented. I save it for special occasions. It’s very elegant and sophisticated, lasts forever, and even stains the collars of my clothes. I haven’t found it since and bought it in 1999. Beautiful memories of this fragrance.

  They’ve reformulated it and it smells terrible. Mostly, it smells like expired perfume. I used it 20 years ago and it was delicious, super sexy, and versatile. I bought it out of nostalgia and now I regret it. Goodbye Moschino, never again.

  This was my first perfume; I went by the bottle and didn’t check the notes. When I applied it to my skin, I almost immediately regretted it. The pepper note is so potent it stings my nose and gives me a headache. On my skin, the clove and rose come out heavy and powdery, nothing cold weather can fix. I haven’t tried the vintage version, so I can’t comment on that.

  This was the first perfume I bought, guided by the bottle without paying attention to the notes (my fault, I know). When I could finally test it on my skin, I almost immediately regretted it. The pepper note is so potent that it stings my nose too much and gives me a headache like never before. On my skin, the carnation and rose stand out, in a heavy and extremely powdery way, which fails to convince me even in cold weather. I haven’t tried its vintage version, so I can’t offer an opinion on that.

  My husband gifted it to me. Although I’m not usually into vintage perfumes and prefer youthful scents, this one is different. I was pleasantly surprised; it smells very elegant and sophisticated. I see it for evening wear, but it doesn’t smell like ‘older woman’ like some Chanel or Carolina Herrera fragrances. It works brilliantly for special occasions. I treasure it.

  Woman Fatal, what more could you ask for? I can’t imagine anything else. I wonder how they manage to blend calendula and plum so well. Bold, provocative, and intense; Moschino’s early creations are a treat. It opens with a fresh galbanum that becomes more corporeal, with an interesting earthy base. Nutmeg, amber, and vanilla with touches of patchouli give it that earthy halo. The pepper is excellent, not synthetic like it is nowadays. Then the nutmeg and pepper calm down, and the clove reveals itself, alongside ylang-ylang and some rose. There’s wood, sandalwood, and that sensual amber/vanilla side. Yes, it connects strongly with CK One Woman, but this has more florals and fewer citrus notes. Both are wrapped in amber, vanilla, and spices. Moderate trail but with brutal longevity. I recommend it wholeheartedly.

  An absolute delight; warm and sexy. To me, it doesn’t smell like Obsession but rather has more of a Shalimar vibe. I’m thinking of buying another bottle (I’ve already used the vintage), but I’m terrified they’ve reformulated and ruined it. An elegant, sensual aroma, perfect for cultured people and far from the vulgarity of modern perfumes. Wonderful.

  Snagged this online at a bargain price; it’s a spiced freshness that works equally well day and night. At first, I thought it smelled just like Obsession, but it doesn’t anymore. One day it reminded me of my Shalimar, but now it’s 100% Moschino, original and with its own distinct style. I love this oriental freshness that sets you apart from the crowd. I’d encourage @Belvedere to pick it up; it’s gorgeous and deserves a place in the collection, even if it differs from the 80s version.
