Gucci Première Eau de Toilette | Gucci
Gucci Première is a floral woody musk fragrance that was launched in 2014. It is a lighter and more delicate version of the original Gucci Première Eau de Parfum that was launched in 2012. Beve loves the champagne note that is sparkling and heady. The perfume is also light and feminine, with a floral bouquet. She thinks it is good for spring and summer, or indoors in winter. She likes it because it makes her feel good and feminine.
Azzaro Pour Elle | Azzaro
Azzaro Pour Elle by Azzaro is an amber floral fragrance that was launched in 2015. It is the feminine version of the popular Azzaro Pour Homme. The fragrance was inspired by the glamorous and seductive women who love to attract attention. Beve likes the sweetness, powdery-ness and happiness of the fragrance. She says the champagne note lasts for six hours and then changes to a cashmere note that is cozy, warm and comfortable.
212 VIP Rosé | Carolina Herrera
212 VIP Rosé by Carolina Herrera is a floral fruity fragrance that was launched in 2014. It is a flanker of the original 212 VIP that was launched in 2010. The fragrance is inspired by the New York party scene and the glamorous women who rule it. Beve finds that it is fresh and boozy on the top, with a champagne note that is very dry. She also says it is sweet and floral, with a musky dry down that has some warmth from amber. She thinks it is light, feminine and great for the daytime.
Lady Million Empire | Paco Rabanne
Next we have Lady Million Empire by Paco Rabanne. This is a chypre floral fragrance that was launched in 2019. It is a variation of the original Lady Million that was launched in 2010. The fragrance is inspired by the women who are not afraid to take risks and conquer their dreams. Beve loves the boozy, sweet and vanillic scent that reminds her of strawberries and champagne. She also loves the floral cocktail that lasts throughout the fragrance. She thinks this perfume is perfect for brunch with the girls in the summer. She says it smells different on skin and it may not be a safe blind buy.
Yvresse | Yves Saint Laurent
And finally we have Yvresse by Yves Saint Laurent. This is a chypre fruity fragrance that was launched in 1993. It was originally named Champagne but it was renamed Yvresse due to lawsuits filed by French producers of the sparkling wine that originally bore the name. The producers claimed that the perfume violated their trademark and could confuse consumers. The name change was a controversial decision that disappointed many fans of the original fragrance. The fragrance is inspired by the joyous celebration of life with champagne. Beve says it smells like dry champagne with nectarine, lychee, violet, rose and patchouli. She says it is light and airy and she likes it.
