Bvlgari Omnia Amethyste

I had seen these on the perfume sites I use and have always lusted over the bottle alone. It is sucha feminine shape and colour and oozes riches. I have heard of Bvlgari perfumes before and had always wondered what they were like. I managed to get my first try of one when I bought this as a mini in a set of five from a BR lovely.

I paid $10 for the 10ml bottle and let me tell you how blimmin cute the bottle is!! When I tried to open it, it made me feel a tad silly. I couldn't figure out how to open the bottle. It felt like I was opening a cryptic puzzle and I was losing. It took my husband to open it up for me haha. After taking a closer sniff I was both surprised and slightly disappointed.

The first impressions I get are WHOA that is soooo strong, and almost passes as a 'old lady perfume'. Old lady perfume to m is very, very strong, almost sickly and only a tiny dab is needed to last all day. At first it was a smell I thought I could learn to love but as the scent warmed to my skin I quickly began to dislike it intensely.

When I first dabbed some on my wrist and then my collar bones I got the distinct scent of roses and grapefruit. It was both fresh but floral. I can't say I love the mixture of fresh and floral. As the scent warmed to my skin it became almost powdery smelling. Like a strong talc powder that belongs in the undie draw. It lasted all day long even after a shower I could smell it on me. I think my husband was the only one out of us that liked it. Come to think of it, it could almost pass as a males fragrance because of how strong and after shave like it smells.

I can't say I love this perfume. I love the bottle and the idea behind the gem that it reflects but to be honest it fails to capture that essence. I would imagine a sexy, musky smell for an amethyste gem not a floral after shave like perfume that I got. No thank you!

I received this as a gift a few years ago and really wasn't my kind of scent. Too bold and overpowering. Can't say I like the bottle either, but that's just being fussy ;) On the other hand, my mum loved it!

Very light and safe fragrance. Suitable for work, does not overpower. Silage is not great, stays on about two hours on skin. Very feminine and i have received compliments on this. I wouldn't repurchase this, doesn't suit my personality.

personally at first i didnt like the smell because i thought it was to strong for me but one day when i went out to my nieces birthday after that i love it the smell just got me and I love the bottle very funky.

When i first used this perfume i wasn't overly impressed because it was quite a strong floral smell. But over the next few days of using it, it grew on me quite a lot and now i really enjoy the smell and like how it doesn't smell like anything thing else on the market. Its very good for this time of year, when the seasons are changing from summer to autumn. Would recommend to anyone who likes being different.

The most awesome thing about this is the bottle, wow!! its gorgeuous and stood out of the rest on the rack, almost egging me to buy it. The pretty purple stained glass entwined in a twirl with the shiny silver metal is adorable, it took me a while to work out how to operate it, but once found the sprayer was even and light very delicate.

The scent isn't a major hit for me and I do wear this on the odd day but its getting very close to the floral side that I don't like, its saved but the under note of a woody musk that has a sourness to it, the lingering note is of a musk on my wrists. Its clean and fresh and a great scent for spring and summer, it reminded me of CK eternity to be honest if not a little bit more woody. Very simple but sweet.

My mum brought back testers and this one was my favourite! I love the design of the bottle. The fragrance always lasted a full day which is amazing!

Oh she is nice! I get a soap slight baby lotion or nivea vibe with a nice floral I really wanted to love this but the EDT is simply not strong enough or lasting enough for me i would LOVE a bottle of this in a EDP version. The dry down i have noticed with bvlgari perfumes tends to be similar its a bit like mens after shave but in saying that the dry down in alot of branded perfumes tend to smell similar. When you have tried a few from the same brand you get to notice it. Its in a goldea one too. Part of the brands base DNA perfume composition. I recommend this one well I liked it.

I was recently brought this perfume by my mum. At first i didn't like it that much, i thought it was a bit heavy, but the more i smelt it the better it got. Its a very sensual scent and i think it's perfect scent for anytime of year. it has amazing staying power and definitely last all day. I will without a doubt repurchasing this perfume when mine runs out.
