A beautiful fragrance, ideal for special occasions and memories. It starts citrusy and evolves into something tropical. It lasts for hours, even into the next day. Delicate and elegant at the same time.

It was my first imported perfume, a gift that smelled clean and fresh. Citrus at first, then flowers and talc. It’s a daily all-rounder and I’ll be buying it again soon.

I bought it blindly based on reviews, hoping for a sweet, uncommon citrus scent. Upon trying it, it was a synthetic, unnatural smell that annoyed me, but it improved over time: citrus with an intense masculine touch. I’ll give it a mention for being different, but I wouldn’t recommend it. What a pity.
Versus hit me straight away. I got it through an exchange and wore it day after day without looking at my other perfumes. The citrus dominates, but it’s not your typical fresh summer scent; it’s a sweet, warm, ripe orange. The patchouli is dry and seductive, so I keep my nose to my wrist and want to use it again the next day. It has a clean, musky base. Although it smells a bit artificial, it’s modern, addictive and characterful. I recommend it to those who love sweet scents for the heat. High sillage and lasts over 12 hours. What more could you ask for?
I really like it, although I expected more sweetness than citrus, which is why I don’t absolutely adore it. However, the base is soft and doesn’t put me off. I thought the trail would last longer, but people smell it after a while, so perhaps I’m just perceiving it that way.
It fascinated me. It’s very citrusy and summery, yet without any cheesy fruity notes; it’s dry, characterful and feminine. It feels fresh and fun, but with personality. To me, the bottle doesn’t reflect this; if I were to design it, I’d make it orange, with organic shapes and less linear lines, to capture its spark and avoid it looking as unconventional as its current packaging.
