I thought I would like this but I didn’t. It is so overly strong and floral, nothing for me.

Thanks for chiming in on this one. It’s so helpful to get “road-tested” takes on fragrances.

I love all Bvlgari …
I love all Bvlgari fragrances; men’s, women’s, unisex, they all have something magical to offer. Oddly enough though, Jasmine Noir is the only one that actually works on me. Like you said, it does what few other perfumes have managed, and that is to bring out the very best in jasmine and gardenia with a nice touch of sexy spiciness to jazz things up. Jasmin Noir is everything I want in a daily-wear scent… except for the price tag!

If I met a man who liked to wear headache-inducing floral perfumes I would smack him immediately.

I found this perfume to be truly lovely on paper. But I can’t wear it, it makes me nauseous. I also seem to get a slightly metallic dry-down on skin.

How they differ is …
How they differ is that they’re completely different, “Black Orchid” in the name aside. The original B.O. is the cucumbery-chocolate orchid thing, and Voile de Fleur is a more emphatically womanly perfume: a tuberose in the Fracas vein. It doesn’t klonk you over the head the way Fracas does, though. VdF is greener, fresher.

ooh, if only I had a third job and less bills both of those would be mine in a second! hah. I must ask though, how does voile de fleur differ from the original black orchid?

Oh, isn’t it …
Oh, isn’t it beautiful?!! I just answered your other question on perfumes that work for smokers, & now that I know you like jasmine, I wanted to tell you about a niche fume by Etat Libre d’Orange called Jasmin et Cigarette. It actually works. Once you get into the niche area of perfumes, there’s no end to the delightful smoky/leather/woody lusciousness that might work for you. And if you love Jasmin Noir, I wonder if you also like Tom Ford Black Orchid Voile de Fleur?

thank you so so so much for turning me on to this. I would’ve never tried it and now its in one of my top 5 perfumes of the moment.

Jasmin Noir is 100% …
Jasmin Noir is 100% perfect for young women – it’s just so pretty and and full without being heavy, dense or thick. I think the slightly spicy wood in there keeps it youthful and modern – in other words, it’s not just a thick wad of florals. Bulgari’s just come out with an eau de toilette version of the orginal eau de parfum, which gives you a lighter, sheerer option. But my personal preference is for the edp.

I really dig this scent….but I worry that wearing it will make me seem older than I am. Can a woman in her mid-twenties wear it around and come out smelling like roses? Metaphorically?

It’s true – everyone has their own associations with fragrances. Odd that your family register jasmine as a leather car interior!
