i Profumi di Firenze Vaniglia del Madagascar EDP Perfume Review

March 14, 2012

i profumi di Firenze Vaniglia del Madagascar

At one time in my life I really enjoyed i Profumi di Firenze Vaniglia del Madagascar. Now I don’t. It’s not the memories associated with the fragrance or the fact that my tastes have expanded. There’s just something about Vaniglia del Madagascar that doesn’t work for me anymore.

Vaniglia del Madagascar is really sweet. It’s a sweet vanilla and that’s really all you need to know about it. You’ll get some lemon-custard-tropical flowers over raw vanilla extract. It’s not unpleasant. It’s… Continue reading | 5 Comments

i Profumi di Firenze Fiori del Cielo Fragrance Review

December 29, 2008

With a name like “Flowers From Heaven”, I really expected a whole lot. I mean, that’s the sort of name that’s going to set one up for disappointment, right?

i Profumi di Firenze Fiori del Cielo opens with a crisp, green iris. It’s fresh, green and vaguely aquatic. It’s like iris blossoms drenched in rain. At time, I pick up on chilled white grapes. I love all of this. The disappointment for me is in the base. It dries down to dried flowers. I miss the crispness!

Projection and longevity… Continue reading
