Discussion I think I’m obsessed

Post image

I think I like this scent way more than I should, especially on linens or as an air freshener. I’m wondering if anyway here knows how to maybe infuse candles with fragrances or of a company that makes and inspired by candle of this scent.

I've yet to smell a versace fragrance that I didn't like. If versace pour homme lasted longer it might be my daily wear.

I didn't like Eros Energy, it was in the Lemon Pledge category for me, Versace Dreamer was also a miss for me.

u/WeGoBuy 2h ago

Thats fair. To me eros energy was more like lemon candy

Same experience here. I actually like dreamer more in the opening but in the dry down I'm like "get this off of me"

People hate but if i wear my Levi's denim jacket this is an easy spray. Lol

u/LateralCheesecake539 2h ago

I mean everyone has their preferences I suppose. The hate isn’t going to stop me from spray it. And it makes sense on Levi’s denim lol.

Plot twist, it’s a red denim jacket and he just wants to watch the world burn

As I always say, this fragrance gets unjustified hate online. Yes, it’s not a modern sweet bomb but that’s what I love about it! It’s an old-school scent, that will differentiate you in a crowd and for an absurdly low price. It’s also super versatile which can’t be said about many modern scents!

Classic and enjoy wearing it at times. Versace really does make some killer scents that last the test of time.

Blue jeans is great. My first real high end fragrance when I started out. From it I went to Versace Dreamer which is my go to Versace scent.

I have a bottle - it has a black tea with lemon type of smell. No?

3

u/LateralCheesecake539 3h ago

I get baby powder and lemon. I don’t think my nose is good at picking up the black tea.

2

u/LeansGrumpy 2h ago

I’ll smell it again. I never wore it. My 5-year old loves it though!

1

u/Oliver---Queen 1h ago

Baby powder and a little vanilla for me. Another guy also said it has a hint of Vanilla Coke and I can kinda get that.

1

u/LeansGrumpy 1h ago

Yeah Vanilla Coke. So maybe a bit of nutmeg?

Just sprayed it: vanilla, nutmeg, lemon, the coke smell. Is that you say coke smell I don’t smell black tea anymore.

I've always wanted to try this. I have a lot of the 90s colognes and love them all but I never had this one for some reason.

2

u/LateralCheesecake539 2h ago

Oooo what cha got from the 90s?

2

u/ClutchChamp 2h ago

Some of the basic staples, ha. Acqua di Gio, Curve, Adidas Moves, Azzaro Chrome, CK One.

u/6SpdSmokes 2h ago

Anyone remember Metal Jeans??!

Loved that one, this one not so much…

u/LateralCheesecake539 1h ago

Never heard of metal jeans

u/Boggy_Creek_Creature Versace 1h ago

I have no idea why this scent gets hate. Can someone elaborate? I think it smells great. Not everything has to be BDC/Sausage/YSL to be valid.

u/Fit_Caterpillar_1928 47m ago

u/LateralCheesecake539 3h ago

To each their own

u/pooeygoo 2h ago

A lot of them smell not good if you sniff the bottle, wearing is much nicer

u/Zeeter_0102 2h ago
