About this deal

This is a scent that is very true to the notes listed - what you read there is pretty much what you get!

It's rare that I venture into 'Ladies designer' stuff much anymore, but when I do I feel slightly confused by the various versions of seemingly the same scent (I didn't realise the other Illusione was for men. If they made this in a stronger concentration - or just tweaked it so it lasted a bit longer - this would be a top 5 warm weather/office fragrance for me.Every time I smell it, a different note dominates the fragrance: The fig leaf, black currant or orange blossom or a combination of them. There is a soft milky fig like sap hiding behind the not too sweet, (not gourmand) soft herbal like facade.

Nice before bedtime scent though, and it won't affect the fragrance options for the next day, since it'll be completely gone. I get a lot of compliments when I wear this one, and it doesn't seem to be very popular so you will be the only one wearing this gem. Please note that this service might transfer the data outside of the EU/EEA and to a country without the required data protection standards. I will likely not repurchase after going through my 50 ml bottle, but will explore trying something else from this house because it smells classy and high quality without being synthetic. It absolutely channels the Mediterranean in the best way, and leans more feminine than other fig scents like Philosykos.All differences considered, if I smelled one of these two on someone else, it would actually take an awkward amount of sniffing for me to discern which of the two they were wearing! Heavily but creamy green, slightly fruity, subtle white flowers with a fine aromatic bitter woody edge.

Poured into an opulent bottle topped with a marble cap, the fragrance is built on a base of olive tree and Tonka bean, crafted with a heart of fig leaf and orange blossom and topped with blackcurrant and bergamot accords.Indulge in the suspended moment between dream and reality with Bottega Veneta Illusione for Her Eau de Parfum.

The only thing that made me hesitate before picking up a full bottle is that it does remind me a lot of another perfume I already have in my collection — Ange ou Demon Le Secret by Givenchy. Notes say it's black currant, I, however, smell more complexity - some sour red currant and cherries similar to TF Lost Cherry. Perfume Brands takes the privacy and security of individuals and their personal information very seriously and takes every reasonable measure and precaution to protect and secure the personal data that we process. With Illusione for Him, however, I like it quite a lot, despite it being 'mature', but I'm probably not going to get a bottle of it soon. The new Regulation aims to standardise data protection laws and processing across the EU; affording individuals stronger, more consistent rights to access and control their personal information.The comparison with a cough medicine is on point, it smells a bit like a syrup or something you dissolve in hot water. The problem I have with it is the same as with Pour Homme Extreme: performance is on the weak side, and it smells like a soup of notes, not a composition. Finance is provided by PayPal Credit (a trading name of PayPal UK Ltd, Whittaker House, Whittaker Avenue, Richmond-Upon-Thames, Surrey, United Kingdom, TW9 1EH). Aromatic Harmony: Blackcurrant and Bergamot introduce aromatic harmony, leading to a heart of refreshing Fig Leaves and Orange Blossom. Bottega Veneta Illusione For Her EDP refpresents a suspended moment between dream and reality, in a bewitching floral and woody fragrance with tangy fruit accents.
