Envy Perfume For Women, 60Ml

Product Information

That being said...this was in my light pink era where i was moving away from my beloved Light Blue by D&G and craving some pink...but not bubble gum or cotton candy pink...more like pink lemonade. And this fit the bill to a T. Gucci Envy Me is one of those girl next door perfumes that's pretty, fun and flirty. Unfortunately, I also found it to be flat and forgettable. It's a really light fragrance on me. After a while I can smell only the spiciness of pink pepper, which I learned is my most favorite and recurrent note. The floral is a magnolia bouquet, made sour by sharp lilac, fugitive hyacinth and fake citrus. There's also cold iris and a green accord based on shiny muguet leaf. This is the problem with many modern frags, especially the sweet/sugary/fruity ones - they're a bit thin, a little predictable and almost interchangeable. There's a cheapness to frags that depend on fruits and sugars. How many fruit notes can be incorporated before the frag becomes a fruit salad?

In fact, what sweetness there is, is only there to stop the tamarisk note from getting out of hand, nothing more. And of course it was a big success, which goes to show that a safe perfume isn't always the most lucrative one.Seven years after the launch of Envy, Gucci introduces Envy Me. This is a fragrance for the egocentric and bold young woman. The composition is fruity-floral with fresh and musky accords: spicy notes of litchi and pomegranate, the freshness of water jasmine, a harmony of sensual woods and musks. The top notes are pink peony and pink pepper, cassia, peach, mango; the heart brings litchi, pomegranate and pineapple; the base follows with sandalwood, white tea, Teakwood and white musk. The perfume was created by Karine Dubreuil in 2004. At first I used it almost always and then I stopped because I wanted to preserve whatever was left for a while.

Pleasant but not groundbreaking. I was actually surprised when I looked at the notes... I definitely don't detect the tobacco in this, nor would I expect it to be part of the composition of a fragrance like this. Aggressive and mean, Envy was a success - because of its faults - and not despite them. And they are what make it so distinctive and memorable. My sister used to wear this. Though the bottle has a cute gucci logo, when she initially wore it she asked me if I liked it and I honestly said no because I thought it smelled like nail polish remover upon spraying INCLUDING base notes. She would ask me time and time again because she wouldn't understand why I didn't like it. I would like to try Envy. I hope it doesn't smell ANYTHING like this! (Crossing fingers) I got this once as present I couldnt believe my friend would associate this with me. At the time it didnt smell similar to anything and while it was a perfect teen scent I didnt know what to do with it. It was too girly fruity sweet it just wasnt me. I wore it all year round and finally emptied the 100ml bottle. Now I agree burberry smells similar which makes burberry generic, not gucci. This smells like drunk (on pina colada) sex in the Carribbean :) -smells like rich kids having an exotic carefree vacation -its yummy,exotic, melts on your skin and it goes to your head.

One of the few representatves of this genre that I really like. Sweet fruits are grounded with some darker notes of seringa, sandalwood, ad musk while the whole composition is being freshened up with a shampoo-like floral notes. Kalıcılık ise EDT olmasının hakkını vererek ılık havalarda yarım günü buluyor. Belki sıcak havalarda daha uzun süre etki gösterebilir. Yine de küçük dozlarda kullanılmasını ve şişe ebatları yüzünden yanınızda bir atomizer ile gün içinde tazelenmesinin daha güzel olacağını düşünüyorum. I saw so many people here commenting that this fragrance is forgettable and not unique but I beg to disagree. I believe that yeah, it's somewhat reminiscent to a lotion I have sniffed before (still a good thing) - but that's it. The combination of the notes for me is great. They are nothing I have smelled before. On the other hand, what is different about Envy is - it doesn't try to smell nice. By flouting the idea that it 'should always smell good' Envy places itself firmly in the difficult - or Expressionist camp - along with some of Roudnitska's work, Sécrétions, Poison etc. I don’t consider myself to be a hype man by any stretch of the imagination, which makes the next statement all the more profound. I believe Envy for Men is one of the greatest fragrances ever made. And keep in mind I’m not saying this out of nostalgia. As far as I remember, Envy was never very big in Australia. The fragrances I remember when growing up were Drakkar Noir, Usher and One Million. By the time I tried Envy for myself, it had been long discontinued.

All in all - I love that the scent is light: floral/fruity with a hint of masculinity and green notes. Ahhhh, I love sniffing it on my wrist. When the wind blows on me, I could smell other notes I cannot decipher. Haha. Soooo lovely. Contemplating on making this my signature perfume. Guess I have to look on other Gucci perfumes too. Acizane düşüncem tam bir genç ve orta yaş hanım kokusu olduğudur. Genellikle parfümlerde kadın erkek ayrımı pek yapmam ama bu koku gerçekten bir erkek için fazla kadınsı. Kesinlikle gayet çiçeksi ve şekerli bir koku. Ancak itiraf etmeliyim ki bence sert veya biraz modası geçmiş diyebileceğimiz türdeki keskin baharatlı erkek parfümleriyle birlikte doğru oranlarda kullanınca garip bir şekilde eşsiz ve cinsiyetsiz bir parfüm yaratmanıza imkan veriyor. Tabi yine de biraz eli yüzü düzgün çekici bir erkek olmanız durumunda bu karışımı öneririm. Yoksa hiç bu önerimi dikkate almayın ve erkekseniz doğrudan uzak durun. Benim gibi parfüm ayırmayı sevmeyen biri bile "aga nesin, necisin, bu nasıl koku? bilelim de ona göre davranalım.." diye bir tepki verebilir. :D Envy Me is a bright, buoyant, feminine fragrance for spring. It is a happy and uplifting scent that is uncomplicated and projects a youthful, carefree essence.Fresh floral perfume. There a lot of peony in it. I can also sense some pineapple. It smells so ordinary, it leaves me no impression. Nothing to envy here. Envy me? oh, please, don't be silly. It's just a plain floral scent and very flat one too. it doesn't have anything special, and at some point the scent is not pleasant at all. it's just like a soap or shampoo, you may like it's floral fragrance, but it's just not something you would buy in a bottle. On my skin, it's boring, flat and dissapears after ten minutes, leaving a very soapy scent. I've been wanting to try on this perfume since I've been looking for a summer/spring fragrance and saw several people on the net suggesting this. They also say it draws compliments and I've been also on the lookout for such - so I was so excited when this bottle arrived. Very enjoyable smell. I think it's complex and sophisticated enough to wear as a signature scent. I don't think anyone would have a problem with smelling this on somebody else, I think it's very likeable.
