I have it: 887 I had it: 497 I want it: 397 My signature: 30
Bvlgari Pour Femme is a feminine classic which will adorn you just like precious jewellery. The delicate floral bouquet opens with bergamot, violet leaves and orange blossom. In the heart dwells luminous jasmine Sambac picked at dawn, when its scent is romantically soft. Jasmine is followed by sensual mimosa and always feminine rose. The base unites powdery coldish iris, musk and sandal wood. The fragrance was created in 1994. In 2006 it was re-launched in a new and more luxuriant design. The face of the fragrance is charming Kate Moss.
The nose behind this fragrance is Sophia Grojsman.

very good. a little neutral but very good. i recommend blind buy. i haven't met anyone who hates it yet. lady-like, classic. great for a safe gift.
On my skin this fragrance only develops a very intense violet note, which is almost bitter, reminding me of licorice. Sometimes it is so strong that it gives me headache. Sometimes I tolerate it better, managing to let it develop until the powdery drydown. It is too strong for me. But I can imagine it very well on an elegant woman who is in love with strong violet fragrances.
Bvlgari pour femme is dominated by rose and fruits. it is very sweet without being sugary. is almost gourmand, but restrained. it has an intriguing smell, mostly because it is a very unique combination of delicate and extremely prized florals that the industry of perfume has used ever since, a flash of delicious and savory fruits and a sprinkle of spices enveloped in musk and fragrant woods and roots.
it is rich and glamorous, honest in its elegance, feminine and tasteful.
a scent that raises to the praise of timeless fragrances such as chanel and guerlain, from the point of view of sophistication. it has the bulgarian rose as a trademark scent, thus staying as a romantic, young at heart perfume, making it very distinctive among other scents.
I personally enjoy it. it's very sunny and independent on my skin.
I also took into consideration that it is a strong reminder of Tresor. I thought the same thing! I always thought Tresor to be extremely sweet, in a cloying way, unique, but not very lovable. Tresor is rich, is like a chest full of gold and rubies and sapphires and is gourmand all over. The funny thing is that I always smelled it directly from the bottle, having a very low tolerance for its odour, and my mother rarely wore it. Tresor was heavy and quite domineering. Not my type. to say I didn't like it, would be an understatement. even though it could match my skin, my nose was just intolerant, always reminding me of a woman drenched in honey with shiny flowers ans bits of fruits stuck to her hair, better worn in winter than in summer.
No wonder it resembles Lancome Tresor -- it's nose behind is Sophia Grojsman !
There's nothing obtrusive about those two fragrances, just nice, make me want to breathe so deeply again and again.
It smells like play-doh on me. I can't give it another chance. My body chemistry is not a good match for this.
a classic floral scent with a powdery finish, however this goes towards old very quickly, its very daytime social event an unobtrusive nice scent that doesn't stand out other than to say im elegant and expensive which isn't bad just a bit boring in its appropriateness , it screams garden parties, weddings, baby showers, perfect if you need a scent for those kinds of gatherings.
"Bvlgari Pour Femme" (Parfum)
I just bought the parfum (extrait) today and couldn't be happier. It's kind of hard to find actually, so if you can find one, I'd suggest that you take the parfum cause even the EDP got nothing on the parfum version (66% vol).
The overall blend of violet, iris, rose, vanilla is just beautiful. Most of us may see it as a feminine fragrance, but somehow I think any guy can also pull it off when worn on the right occasion (before bed, relax, or dressed in suit and bow tie or tuxedo), because the parfum version is very concentrated and rich. It's almost unisex.
It stays about 10-12 hours on my skin. The silage is above moderate. The scent is just stunning, arresting and unmistakably very Bvlgari.
Timeless and classy.
Score: an easy 9/10
-Mr. Almond-
This is my go-to scent for daytime formal gatherings, such as weddings. It's floral, pretty, classy, elegant and most important - unobtrusive. Some have described this as lacking in complexity. They are right to some extent - that's precisely why it's a useful scent to own. Much as I love oriental spice bombs, they aren't great to wear when you're sitting next to Auntie Mary in the pews singing Bind Us Together on a Saturday morning!
Totally feminine, I read in a magazine that a girl who was wearing it always got great compliments from men.
I love this too. A bit mossy and classic rose, it's heaven !
The only (big) problem is ... it fades away too fast !! Spray, 30 seconds, almost gone (sad)...
I bought EDP not EDT. Even more sad.
The perfume counter lady told me that if I "liked Jasmine Noir, I would love this". I don't see a comparison other than they're both produced by Bvlgari. This stuff is super powdery and rosy. I find it skews "mature". No creaminess in this for me, just dense floral. I like my rose more sensual or green/fresh. A nice fragrance for a classy mom or conservative 20-something.
The pepper and iris dominate the show when mingled with my body chemistry. The dry down on me is coriander and pepper with iris making an appearance once and a while. This is not good thank God I brought a sample first.
Classic and sophisticated. Reminds me of Christmas in Vienna, mink and diamonds.
I love the delicate scent of this fragrance. I have this in a sachet which is very light but I love the gold container. The sachet lies very close to my skin but envelopes me with a sense of calm & beauty. Now I want a bottle of the liquid.
Love a classic feminine floral? Want something for your wedding day? This is it.
This is the best perfume ever! Nice, light, flower-fruity aroma which is perfect for every occasion. The scent makes me feel happy, free and always in a good mood:)
I really love the almost creamy opening! I have been looking for a soft and creamy scent, slightley soapy. On me, it's the perfect opening.
A soft (strong, but still soft if you know what I mean..) creamy and very very feminime beginning. It's really lovely and clean. As many already said, its a very clean, beautiful classic perfume.
What puts it down a bit for me is that it turns very floral after an hour or so. Floral is not what Im after right now, and it's VERY floral, nut just a hint of floral, but it's TRULEY a clean floral scent. It has a nice sillage and an impressing lasting power as well.
Thumbs up for the beautiful opening, but I don't really like the floral heart/base. Will consider buying it anyway, have just tried it indoords. I am curious about how it handels hot weather. I would like to use it in the spring or early summer with a nice stylish dress. That is if the flowers could calm down a bit, not a huge fan of sharp florals.
I Love Love Love this perfume. To me this is absolute femininity. It is gentle, light, floral and clean. Elegant, sophisticated and comforting. Men love it on me too ;-)
Too bad longetivity isn't much, maybe 4 hours and it's gone:/ However, I love this fragrance so much I just keep re-applying it, I would not abandon it!!!
this is not going to be a very intelligent review, but for those of you who like Kenzo Amour but find the sillage/longevity/projection to be a little weak like me, you might want to try this.
To my nose, this is Kenzo Amour on crack. Strong!!
Whitney Houston's favorite perfume. Who knew! Gonna have to try some, although I think I did once and it didn't agree. If only I could sing like her, wait, maybe look like her. A beautiful shining miracle gone too soon. As Costner called her. I would have thought she would be a Bond girl.
Edit: I got a bottle of latest Notte and I wrote my review on that. I will tell you that I like it very much. I still have to try this one.
This is a very classic scent, and lasts a long time. A bit sweet but floral sweet, not gourmand sweet.
A powdery floral scent. This is very feminine and sweet. I enjoy sleeping with the scent. So beautiful.
i like this perfume so much.
it is floral and powdery, a real woman fragrance.
i wear it when i want to feel sure about myself.
it is light enough for work,but can be suitable for a formal occasion too.
a real classic for me.
mücevher nasıl kokmalı, işte budur. ama ikinci şişem olamadığı gibi birincisinin bile bitmemesi de bir gerçek. başkasında ara ara duyduğumda çok hoşuma gidiyor.
This rich yet delicate powdery floral was my signature fragrance for several years when my kids were small, we'd just bought our house and money was too tight to indulge extravagant perfume habits. Beautiful and versatile, with solid sillage and longevity, it was a happy choice for a frazzled young mum who wanted to smell classy on a limited budget — a sensible fragrance investment, if you will, which may sound like a backhanded compliment, but even now with plenty of perfume bottles to choose amongst, I often reach for my lovely and reliable Bvlgari. Violets, rose, iris and jasmine dance prettily on a warm musk-benzoin-woodsy base, and it makes me relax, gives me an injection of optimism and confidence, and best of all it makes me smell so darn good. :)
I had a bottle I enjoyed many years ago I tryed it again recently but on my skin and to my nose something wrong has happend: it was a rich flower scent very beautiful, but now it seems to be only messy or it is me a changed person during the years. Uhmm, yes!
Not really getting the YSLParis link. It is very light on me. Classic notes. Takes me away to a different age gone by. Does not have the depth of others in the same mould. I have the EDT. EDP would perhaps be an improvement for me.
I like it, but it's the intial sweet powdery blast is a bit off putting for me. After 10mns it's much better.
Will not repurchse. The bottle is gorgeous (the 30ml one).
Edit: This one is a headache inducer, I think it's the violets, but i'm not sure. Try before you buy!
I absolutely love this fragrance. I used to wear it about 7 years ago and after trying out many, many different frags this one has come back into my life. I always receive tons of compliments when I wear this and even if I did not I wouldn't care. I usually wear a heavier oriental and hate florals but this one works and works well.
Just blah. Too sharp in the beginning and nothing that I love. Just smells like a mish mosh of florals on my skin and on fabric. Unlikely I'll finish the sample.
I cannot believe how many notes are listed here, because I can only smell a few.
This is light, simple clean smelling floral. Jasmine, tea and iris. It is too diluted then if many other notes are involved.
Silage-wise not worth it and after 1 hour poof it's gone.
Pretty. It truly is just that, pretty, lovely, beautiful. The 'pour' should be dropped; simply calling this fragrance Femme would say all it. Unlike some perfumes, this is a scent to be worn -only- by a woman. Men can admire it, but only on said woman, (or perhaps as a parting token on their shirt collar).
Initially I get powdery violets and iris. In an hour or so that settles and the rose comes through. Real rosey-rose and jasmine combined with a pleasant warm under base which I can't quite separate into distinct notes. This continues on for quite some time, until the flower notes fade to a whisper and the base notes grow warmer with only the rose left to keep them company.
Pour Femme doesn't announce itself five minutes before you walk into the room. No, it follows behind, a delicate epilogue to your graceful entrance. It's soft, yes, and airy, but not in a barely-there way. Like a classy lady it stands out without needing to be loud and calling all the attention to itself.
Personally, I find this to have a certain vintage air to it. I feel that it could have easily been worn in the 1950s. (Of course it would have to be packaged in a delicate little flacon and called something like Rêves de Paris.)
Final verdict: Just lovely.
To me it smells of violets first, and later of roses, always powdery. It is very interesting the way one type of scent (violet) gives room to the other one (rose). Well Sophia Grosjman is a master of perfume structure, she really knows how to make a scent evolve in steps. I find the opening too sharp, which often happens with violet, but it gets quite nice afterwards, simple and nice. Do not find it as nice as other Bylgari perfumes, Blv, Omnia crystalline and Omnia Amethiste. To me Bvlgari pour femme comes next. But, as I said, no doubt a masterly crafted scent.
Very similar to YSL Paris, just a bit softer and smoother. I was hoping for the classic "makeup smell", but got none of that.
Way to sharp and flowery for me. The sandalwood in it is nice though, but that´s all.
I sold my bottle immediately, blind buys doesn`t always work....
Talk about Bvlgari Femme is talk about feminine, and most women like feminine. People says that's same like Paris YSL, but i think Blv Femme more feminine and sweet powdery than Paris YSL. Paris more fresh and soapy than Blv Femme. I have both, and I like Paris YSL more than Blv Femme. What about you? If you want sweet powdery ending you can choice Blv Femme, but if you like fresh soapy ending go ahead for Paris YSL..
To my disbelief, i've just read on my Croatian Fragrantica that this scent is been recently reformulated, is that true ????
And that in fact now does resemble alot more YSL Paris than to himself in the original formula .. :(((( ~
simply fantastic, very feminine, sweet, but not to much, elegant and sexy, no more words to describe this scent!
the best i've tried and smelt ever, :)
Someone has mentioned it before that it has a resemblance to YSL Paris (another Grojsman creation, btw). I own both and they do open quite the same, with lots of violetty rose. But that's only for a few minutes, and even in that period they aren't identical. Paris has a soapy-shampooey underlying accord, Pour Femme is more pure-violet-candy-water like in the opening. From there, the two take very different routes.
I find Pour Femme to have about three almost completely different faces. It evolves quite a lot during it's wear. It has a lovely ambery, resiny stage which is to die for. I'd say that between this and Paris, Pour Femme has more soul, but that's only a subjective opinion -plus, I absolutely love them both.
I bought it blind, searching for a rose scent, and I chose it mainly because of your reviews, so big thank you to everyone who contributed to this section :)
It smells like 90's to me, and since I seriously love(d) that decade, it is a definite bonus for me. To be honest, I've only started purposely testing scents launched in the 90's since I've discovered this.
I wouldn't evaluate it as a rose scent, it's much more multi-faceted imo. Either way, it's hard to explain what this perfume is really about, because I'm sure it can tell VERY different stories depending on what your views on life and scents are. One thing is for sure though, it's soft enough not to bother sensitive noses, but strong enough to get whiffs of it throughout the day.
(I also got a teeny-tiny tube of body lotion with my purchase, and I've never before compared a scent to bug spray, but in this case, I have to say, it does in fact smell exactly like the bug spray they sell here. Less pungent, but essentially the same. The real shocking thing about this is that I love the lotion nonetheless :D I'm kind of fond of unusual, slightly out of place scents, and for something marketed so conservative, this line definitely has pleasant unexpected surprises. Enough now... I have to go and fall in love again :)
I had written a review about this perfume 3 years ago. I really liked it but I felt it was not collaborating well with my chemistry. Recently I tried it again, and fell in love...
I don't know what's up with me and soft-airy scents lately. I guess they feel like "me". I like them to be noticeable but soft, like a dewy morning breeze. This is exactly what Pour femme is. A dewy morning breeze. It is funny how I find my self daydreaming about early spring mornings and late summer evenings when I have this on. It is funny that I feel an unconscious connection with my childhood, even though the smell is really womanly, really captivating. This is balance. And this is why it feels so comfortable.
As the other reviewers have described very well, it is a floral with a warm -but still cool in a way- base. Jasmine adds a beautiful sweetness, the rose is very elegant and watery, the mimosa gives some powderness along with the violet... And the cool/warm base on the background is a very well balanced blend of benzoin styrax, amber, iris and sandalwood.
I use this on my upper arm instead of my wrists, due to high body temperature.
Gorgeous, womanly scent. I smell violet. This is not for timid wearers it's a personality scent, not a common smell.
Feminine and elegant,,
Lovely fragrance, very ladylike, classy, elegant, graceful, peaceful...
Makes me think of a boudoir in light pastel nuances, sunlight and early morning breeze, a long white wedding dress, vintage red lipstick and powder, golden hair in retro waves, a crystal vase full of white roses, sweet violets and jasmine.
Pure beauty and innocence.
Bvlgari Pour Femme is the essence of elegance. It harbors a scent without being heavy, is present but not overwhelms.
Smells like violet and tea.
Not a perfume for a young girl, but does not smell like old lady.
It has good fixation, half durability, and leaves a trail elegant.
A special parfum forever.
i love it,my all time favourite-perfect for every ocasion.the only "weak"perfume i love,i normaly allways prefere strong,heavy,oriental fragrances.divine!
I'm on my second bottle of this elegant refined perfume. It smells so refreshing and nice. The florals are just right and it last a very long time. I would purchase this again. Something about it reminds me of Chanel #5 but alot cheaper. I'll always love this fragrance.
Such a beautiful perfume, so feminine and comforting, reminds me all the good sides of females, just amazing <3
I had such high hopes for this one. But sadly, it's just not for me. The opening on my skin was a big punch of violet and it pretty much stayed that way but for a a very slight hint of baby powder in the dry down. It struck me at one point that the combination left me smelling just like baby wipes! Not an offensive scent by any means just not one that I want to pay good money for!
This is pure cool violets and powder to me. It's really feminine and wearable but there's something a little juvenile to me about it, I think the violet element just reminds me too much of parma violet sweets mixed with baby powder. Nice, but only your favorite flower is violet.
I simply love this perfume. I have in 1 oz. EDP.. Its scent last long on my skin, its simply take my soul to the heaven... There is no such a bad day, which one a little pour femme can't help...
I was looking for a new summer fragrance. After much umming and aahing,(and testing), I finally purchase the Pour Femme 30ml EDP.
I truly love this scent, it smells fresh and light. V. v. feminine. It makes me feels clean and womanly.
The one odd thing about it is the sillage, it seems to disappear quite quickly and yet in the evening when jumping into bed, I still get faint whiffs of it. Nice.
This is a beautiful fragrance that bounces of my body.
I don't get the references to Chanel No. 5 because I literally cannot tolerate the smell of No 5. This is not that.
I do smell the rose, but maybe because it is enhanced with Iris, Violet, Strawberry and green Tea, it does not smell old or cloying. I don't smell anything in common with No 5. The rose is predominate in dry down, but not left alone.
Beautiful floral for people who can't hang with White Floral, like me. My favorite floral by a mile I've tried so far. Normal staying power, not great, but not weak.
Not sure if I will add to my collection as I like fragrances with more excitement, but I will strongly consider this if I decide to get a floral.
a rose clean scent
My mom used to have it's shower gel and lotion(not the perfume though). I remember that I liked to sniff the bottle, but not dare to use it. And in my young nose I feel that it's the most beautiful, luxurious, elegant smell I've ever encounter.
Those are qualities you can always counts on Bvlgari.
Today I bought a decant, and the memory is refreshed. And I'm really glad that I bought this decant.
I think this is a staple for every woman after they reach certain age (i.e: 30-ish)
i am a fan of Bvlgari since buying jasmin N and BLV but now to i have this remarcable scent i am totality happy and i joy of my absolut nr 1 frag and this is BVulgari pour femme !the name its tru its feminine its soft elegant expensive smell!i feel much more the woode and spice with violet and iris later the raspberry and rose then the calm ambra and vanilla!super happy to i have this beauthi.
Funny, I don't really wear this perfume much only because it's too strong for me. But whenever I do wear it I get compliments like crazy.
This is classy one..., mixing floral that really good in it, make it sharp so men that like the soft scent could have this, but I don'tknow why I seldom to choose this as my daily perfume. Somehow I prefer Au the Vert..maybe because I did'nt like feminine perfumes verymuch. I won't buy this by myself.. my Beloved Father gave this to me.. ;)
This is a beautiful classy scent. It is very floral, and appealed to me because I love violets. To me, this composition is almost perfect, but just needs a dash of something sweet to round it out. I find it to be long lasting, but not to same the extent of rose essentielle.
What a beautiful parfum. I bought the EdP today and I fell like a stone for this scent. Unfortunatly it just lasts about 1 hour on my skin, so this bottle will be empty real quick. I feel like a rich, sober, elegant woman wearing this. It got wonderful flowers and a airy hint of pepper in background - not very sweet and with a touch of spicy's.. love, love,love this...
En magnifik doft. Jag köpte EdP'n idag och jag föll som en sten för denna doften. Oturligt nog så håller den bara ca 1 timme på min hud, så flaskan kommer att tömmas i ett nafs tyvärr. Känner mig som en rik, sober, elegant kvinna när jag bär denna. Härliga blomnoter och en aning om peppar i bakgrunden, inte speciellt söt eller sötsliskig vilket är bra. Bara älskar denna doften..!!
If you like this perfume and you`re searching for cheaper alternative try Oriflame Midnight Pearl. I find them just identical. I`m planningt to do one to one comparison one both wrists to see if they are really the same.
I love sweet flora persist for 7 h who recommend using floral perfumes as Flora by Gucci, Marc Jacob Eau so fresh
I smelled it today and (unless my memory is drug abused :)) I find it surprisingly close to "Paris". Has this been mentioned before?
I can't like "Bulgari pour Femme":(.
It is inferior to the one it strongly reminds me of, plus it is best representative of a category of perfumes I call, "perfumes bijoux".
It is more like an accessory really, not a soulful creation (which is fair for a Bulgari perfume, isn't it?).
By the way, did you know that Bulgari is Greek by origin?
elegant, classy, intense, charming fragrace...very precious!
I am glad I gave another Bvlgari a chance, after selling several on ebay due to poor sillage and longevity. I just made sure to get EDP version.
This one is by no means a sillage monster, but for a soft fragrance it is quite substantial on my skin in terms of sillage. Longevity is average: 2-3 hours.....which is normal for this type of scent (I consider longevity whaterever the amount of time the top notes hold).
Nothing out of this world, but very beautiful and nicely done floral, very elegant and feminine.
Great for hot summer days.
I had a bottle of the fragrance. It's a soapy, classy and elegant smell, you leave a trace behind you as you walk, the perfume lasts long on you and on your clothes.
I don't know why but the smell annoyed me somehow. I had a pot full of hot boiling flower perfume oils in my mind (???) and I couldn't help it! Strange but true. The same thing was with Arden Beauty ;) But I do admit it's a smell worth trying. It fits for a woman about 35 or so, an elegant, posh one.
My new love. I want to smell clean, elegant and a little bit sweet and Femme is exactly what I wanted. It's soft and cuddly, but still intensive enough to be able to smell it after hours. Frangrances with weak longevity are a tragedy. You can love them all you want, but they just leave you too soon (like some guys)
I had to give away No.5 eau Premiere for this reason, and Femme is very similar to the Premiere's top notes, that I liked most.
Femme evokes me the movie Valmont (with young Colin Firth and Annette Bening) - swish of pastel satin, cream silk and ivory brocade, all surrounded by sweet powder.
The bottle should have been made of sanded glass.
This was a nice floral, soft and powdery, yet for quite a while in the middle stages of this I could detect a coffee like scent. I think it was a combination of the orris root and green tea, either way, it's different, and interesting. The violet begins to take centre stage as it wears, with a strong partner in raspberry. There is a hint of heliotrope also. I can't really imagine this on a teen or very young woman, this is for a classy woman who has seen a bit of the world and is comfortable in her own skin.
I have been using this perfume for more than 15 years now... it is still my favorite.. i try to change it but it always lift my spirit when i dont feel so good..i read one of the reviews and it says that she felt like a princess wearing it... to me it feels very intimate and safe and pleasant.. :)by the way the body lotion smells very nice by it self and when combined with just a spray of the perfume its heavenly!
How can a "shy violet" be so persistent among these earthy scents? It is incomprehensible how it can hang on to the bitter end with such strong competition of amber, vanilla, sandalwood and musk.Fascinating but hard to understand. While I can admire this perfume to a certain extent I feel that the violet scent dominates too much and it gets kind of soapy on my skin after a while. Thought it would be a more complex perfume. Can imagine that this would be a perfect scent for formal meetings with white blouse dark blue suit and a chic scarf. For a self-confident and elegant woman.
i love this perfume,it smells very strong in the beginning and then it goes on leaving a very feminine note
very elegant and long lasting. it can make a statement without being too intrusive.
Sweet, slightly powdery raisin smell captured my attention when I first sprayed Pour Femme. It is quite different from the other relatively speaking quieter Blvgari perfumes targeting the female consumers.
It is a rather linear perfume with the initial raisin flavour becoming more and more subtle and the body of luxury gourmand sweet rose soap smell comes forward to play.
Pour Femme is nice but somewhat lacks of something. It does smell more luxury then the rose scent or the tea range from Blvgari, but somehow I find Pour Femme is kinda pushed to be Pour Femme.
Nice scent anyway, the quality of ingredients is there and I find it goes well with many black dresses that you might wear when you don’t want to make too much a impression but at the same time also want to look great.
This is the fragrance I wear when I want to be elegant. It is a lot like Chanel no.5, but I like Bulgari a lot better. Both are elegant, powdery florals that are very luxurious, but Bulgari is more wearable somehow.
I would say that this is the classiest perfume i've ever smelt! Very long lasting and doesn't change a lot from the beginning to the end... i think this is called good quality of a perfume!
Barely sensual, if not at all. Very Rosy & Flowery with a pinch of tea & spices lingering. This is a luxurious and comfortable scent.
Its sweet, classy, charming, tender, & elegant - I would imagine a young fashionita wearing this to a modern ball in the city.
I think its best for cold weather/temp. It didnt smell terrible when worn in the tropical heat, but it made me feel stuffed and hot. Almost like drinking warm syrup when your'e super parched.
I find this scent to be the 'sharp yet soft' kind - it has personality & presence but its a little too plain and pretty for me personally.
projection: moderate
longevity: 6 hours +
Edit : Taking a sniff at my arm a while later, I got overwhelmed and felt a little sick. I'm not sure what it is...I feel like the syrupy sweetness is choking me, and the spices aren't helping. Its like the suffocating smell of frying spices for me almost. This is definately not for me, but worth a try (luckily, mine's only a mini).
Wonderful soft peach and spices. The coriander really stands out for me. Somewhat similar to Boucheron. Rich, classy scent.
I smell both violet and rose most predominantly in this perfume, but as it dries down, the iris and sandalwood add woody, earthy warmth to the scent. I do detect traces of lily of the valley and a hint of musk, and there was a delicious pop of raspberry in the first few minutes of wear that made me smile.
Pour Femme is light and clean, yet delicately complex. It's beautifully crafted and, in my opinion, quite a wonderful creation. I've added this elegant fragrance to the list of perfumes that I want in my collection.
i tried this again yesterday after ordering it months ago, trying it once, disliking it and never touching it since. oh my, how quick to judge i'd been! maybe it's the case that i've kissed a lot of metaphorical frogs since then and it's made me realise the prince this was all along...?
it's a really classy, elegant and grown up floral with bags of beautiful powder. at various points i get the iris, the carnation, the musk, the raspberry, the heliotrope and the bergamot but that's fleeting as it's so beautifully smooth that there's no jarring of my senses at all. i imagine this is how oscar by oscar de la renta smells to people who love it. this was on my swap list but not anymore *mwah ha ha ha ha ha (evil laugh). saved it just in time *phew!
"Oh my goodness!" It is just devine! Such a wonderful,classy, fresh floral, that just oozes with refined taste. It will never offend anyone around you. On the contrary, people will be quietly admiring the sillage you are so kindly sharing with them. They will not be able to pin point where it is coming from but, they will deffinitely notice something breath-taking. It whisperes happiness like a bright, happy spring day that has extended into a memmorable evening. In my own experience, it is a must have. Or, simply worth experiencing at least once in your lifetime.
Huele muy bien! pero tengan cuidado de sobreaplicar, en mi caso lo veo como el anais, anais, luego te puedes marear y marear a los demás.
Es un olor clasico, que solo me pondría en contadas ocasiones. No va con mi personalidad.
This opens with green tea, is met with fruit, and finishes cleanly, almost like cotton.
I love this scent, and it doesn't smell floral at on me. My fave to wear as a crisp "winter white", or as a spring scent.
Sweet, delicated, tender and longlasting scent. My friends love it specially on winter and fall time. Bvlgari really knows about scents.
A lovely opening, but almost too sweet and candy-scented. However, its more subtle, powdery dry down evoked a more youthful Shalimar. Maybe I'm wrong, but that is my subjective take on this simple, and yet complex, fragrance.
Gooooood. A classic without any doubt.
My mom used to have this one, its very nice and sweet, when I came to visit, I would spray some before going out with friend and I would get a lot of compliments on it, I dont think I would ever get this for myself but it is a very feminine fragrance.
Strangely, given the amount of notes allegedly in this, all I can smell is roses. Beautiful roses more beautiful than Rose Essentielle, and a little powderyness and fresh femininity. Reminds me of Gaultier Classique a bit, volume turned down and more chic, more for grown-ups.
I am wearing this today and feel very lady-like. I feel as if I should be wearing a long floaty dress and sipping fancy summer cocktails in a garden. The sillage isn't huge but personally I don't find it necessary for the whole town to know what fragrance I'm wearing.
EDP Review:
Opens with violet leaf and violets. Soft and violety if you will but not powdery in the top notes. A shimmering field of clear violets.
Heart is a general floral, and I mean that in a positive way. A delicate and sweet floral that reminds me of things that are white, warm, and soft and bit powdery. The opposite of dark or sultry.
The drydown is a bit different, it is full of sandalwood and musk. There is actually a slightly bitter, spicy edge to it that I really like.
I really like this, it is simple but beautiful floral, dare I say very feminine and ladylike. The lasting power is very, very good, and I really like all the different stages of Pour Femme.
I am totally agreeing with Miss Blandish! MASTERPIECE!
Lipstick Rose's older, more elegant, and slightly more boring sister. I love both scents and would recommend them to any rose/violet lover.
No need to describe, so femenine, elegance and sensual. It's different from Rose Essentielle a little ,Pour Femme doesn't have blackberry scent. but I love them both and I can't stop smelling my skin! I Never get boring to wear this one. <3
I love most Bulgari perfumes I've tried, including this one. But whereas I can wear BLV all day, this one has to be sprayed onto clothes that I'm able to remove during the day, like a cardigan or sweater.
Must be the violets but it can give me a headache wearing it on my skin.
This is one of my favorite straight-up florals, and I don't usually go for them. I love that it is so fresh and sweet, but isn't too much. It also has that smell of confidence & money. I find that it smells a lot like Perry Ellis Classic, you know, the one from 1985 that isn't mentioned anywhere anymore!? It was very similar. I have ordered a sample of the old Perry Ellis to see which I like better. If they are close, I will go for Bulgari as it is SO much easier to find. I think it is lovely.
3/07/2011: Upate - I rec'd my Perry Ellis Classic, and they DO smell VERY similar, but I prefer Bulgari. PEC is sharper, less sweet, and might be stronger, but overall, Bulgari is more well-blended & classy. I'll just put more on ("just put more on, moron!")...hee hee hee! I am funny. I also find that Bulgari is "cleaner" somehow, even though PEC is soapier. Huh.
taste it today after waiting so long ..
i dunt know how to start this but, i was expecting ANOTHER scent .. better or worth , but not as how it smell like!
the opening is almost citrusy but quiet about it, with touches of fruity sweetness and a HINT of bitter green ,the heart is a straight up floral to my nose its rose and violet are most prominent, but you’ll notice the jasmine as well.the early stages it is mildly powdery, but the longer it is on skin, the more powdery it gets
Bvlgari Femme isn’t quite what I’d call sexy, but it has a little edge of something earthy and dark in the base that i found very attractive and not typical , in short i can say its NICE but not breathtaking fragrance .. kind of fragrances that makes you comfortable but not noticeable ..
the bottle itself is truly nice and feminine i luved it so much, much better than the fume itself ..
not sure if i will get me a bottle ..
7/10
I gave it, for me it's to sweet. Don't like it.
First of all: INCREDIBLE staying power. Deadly. I could still smell it on my wrist the next evening. It just doesn't leave.
However... It is boring. It's just sticky and monotone with warm flowers in the first 2 hours. The dry down is quite alike Rose Essentielle but Pour Femme doesn't have Rose's fruity freshness. It's heavy. It's feminine, yes, but in a coquettish way. I liked it because it's likeable, safe but these very qualities are the ones that make it boring. I'd think it suitable for 30 to 50-year-old ladies, not for 20s.
I adore this scent. I have several Bulgari perfumes, and at first I thought it was sort of insipid, but it has become my favorite, especially after a shower before bed, I love to spritz it on and smell like a princess. It is definitely a soft floral, like a warm evening with orange blossoms and roses and nightflowering jasmine, but it is so subtle. It doesn't scream smell me, it is more intimate. It lasts a long time on me.
The description fit my taste, so I thought I'd enjoy this. But it didn't work on me. It wasn't sublimely beautiful- just safe and conservative. I have to agree with lillybee's description- on me, this was "eternally boring".
I'm amending my previous review upon trying this one for the 2nd time...
The top, still synthetic, smelling of lacquer in the bottle and the first 2-5 seconds on skin.
It then morphs into violets, sweet and heavy which waft around for about an hour or so before fading away to nothing.
I do live in a dry climate, so maybe this one needs humidity to work properly.
As a side note, I accidently put Mauboussin over this one on my wrist and the combo is very nice. The strong oriental/Mauboussin cuts the sweetness of the violet and gives BPF a more exotic longer lasting presence.
Maybe Bvlgari should consider a flanker...
I found this scent had more depth than I expected. It's easy to wear everyday and feels a cool, intimate fragrance that goes with any occasion. I like it.
This is powdery and elegant. It's classic in a not animalistic way, but in a clean way. At first, I got a hint of Tresor: that liquor note. After some time, it dissapears (luckily) and it becomes a background fragrance that does not draw much attention, but it's pleasant, feminine and timeless.
One of the most beautiful italian perfume.
So powdery, so stunning...
I really love this scent.
I first discovered Bvlgari Pour Femme on a trip to NYC a few years ago. I wanted to buy a new fragrance and just randomly spritzed Bvlgari from the tester and immediately knew I had to have it! My mom was right next to me and said it reminded her of the smell of mimosa flowers. They grow wild in southern Europe so she always had them around while she was growing up. The interesting thing is they don't list mimosa in the notes, but maybe the combination of the top notes smell like mimosa! Who knows :) Either way, it smells beautiful!!!
This fragrance is the epitome of romantic, when I smell it, that's the first thing that comes to mind. This creamy scent reminds me of women in hats and long flowy ivory coloured organza dresses having tea in an English rose garden. I was doing somebody's makeup one time and she asked what perfume I was wearing that smelled so good...so yes, it draws compliments. :)
This fragrance is elegant and feminine... extremely feminine! If you want the perfect floral fragrance (that's also very long lasting and has good sillage) this is it... simply lovely. ♥
Pour Femme is one of those gorgeous and complicated floral fragrances that are pure delight to wear and so much fun to test. I can see this beautiful fragrance at a summer wedding on a beautiful young bride. This fragrance is feminine, very attractive, elegant and expressive.
Beautiful violets on the opening are balanced very well by orange blossom and bergamot. There is VERY subtle peach and raspberry, almost impossible to detect. I did not feel carnations right away but they came very shortly after the opening and amplified the spices especially pepper. The spices and carnations are not overdone here. They just add enough twist to make the opening exciting. There is a smooth transition to the heart notes. Rose, jasmine and heliotrope are pretty strong sweet florals but the iris/orris keeps the composition cool and the lily of the valley adds spring fresh touch. This combination definitely creates very pretty strong florals without going into sickly sweet scent which could happen with jasmine and rose. I love that the flowers in this fragrance unravel in multiple stages. I feel more than just top and heart, it is like a waltz of flowers when the new flower steps into the centre stage and then steps back to give another flower the spot-light.
The dry down was also multi-staged to me. First it started settling into the powdery vanilla but then about 1.5 hours after the application, the scent turned into resinous (benzoin/styrax) mixed with cedar and sandalwoods. I totally agree with Sherapop on the strong presence of benzoin/styrax combo but I did not feel it in the beginning. They came only in the end for me. The base notes stayed resinous and woody with a touch of powder for the rest of the day.
Pour Femme is a floral masterpiece that I would definitely recommend.
I bought for my friend, she likes it so much. Got many compliments from it
This is glamour materialized into a fragrance. Is astonishing the beautiful smell that can bring the combination of Grean Tea, Amber, Musk, Jasmin, Woody Notes and Violet (these are for me the most prominent notes). I suspect that Grean tea and benzoin notes, maybe makes the fragrance a bit powdery, but this is the charming side of Bvlgari pour Femme.
I'm using my fifth bottle, I don't know why but it reminds me of Champs Elysees, it has also Violet and Peach.. I can't say anything bad about this, is addictive, longlasting, is a classic..
Bvlgari pour Femme is a delicate peachy sugared rose scent, perfect for a distinguished, classy lady. It is light and ethereal but at the same time memorable through its aristocratic character. This perfume would be wonderful for sunny spring days, cocktail parties, garden tea parties and other smart settings. The woman wearing it will not go unnoticed, she will fascinate with her fragile feminity and stylish charm.
I absolutly hate this one .. can't stand the smell , i received it as a gift , it's still there waiting for some mercy :))
Such diamonds are rare. Bvlgari Pour Femme sweeps people off their feet. It's good company when you're glad and it brightens up your mood when you're down. As where certain scents require a certain state of mind, this "Pour Femme" fits every situation. And just how classy it is... Simple as that: I love it.
I try a fake Bvlgari (when I was in college) and the smell is divine.. i really love the smell. Then I try the original one (well, I have a career now) and surprisingly, I found myself don't like it at all.
the smell is too soft, delicate even my nose can't detect it after an hour. The fake one smell so clean and sexy, but classy. Meanwhile, this one almost disappoint in every way. Don't like the rose, don't like the base notes, just hate it...
What we r enjoying here is a fairytale land where women in long lace dresses ride magestic white steeds through fields of flowers.bergamot,wetdripping oranges on trees and soft fuzzy violet leaves where the horse has tread.up ahead there is a lilgarden to itself.covered by jasmine vines with white flowers ready to bburst with their nectar.In the center of the garden is a beautiful double red rose bush that has roses the size of dinner plates with neon colored butterflys after their n4ectar.around the border r the lovely mimosa trees with their chartruse green leaves and powder pink spidery flowers with a fragrance thart trasports u deeper in.night begins to fall and the lady takes off her hat and looks to the east where there r uprooted irisis.they smell cool,fresh,and like they could come to life,qas she turns to ride home she picks up the scent of sweet musky wood which she follows back thru the fields.this is a fairy tale trasporting fume.An experience.Beware tho,u may just have to sniff ur wrist to bring u back from this fume journey to reality.One of the few perfect fumes!!!
This one is great for the summer heat. It has some sour note which is quite refreshing on my skin.
The roses and violets are not sugary sweet and the scent itself is soft, clean and calm. I also detect a little soapiness in it.
I too, like Maki, smell the rose. In fact, it knocked its sister Essential Rose off my "love" list. This smells much more like a rose than their Rose Essential.
Got me a free sample ( EDP) today, getting my daycreme, after trying it on my wrist yesterday.
First spritz, sniffing myself, confused me because of what (I think) must be the rose...and I usually don't like rose being turned into a frag. But what really, really, really stroke me was the trail it left behind once my nose was back where it belongs (right up in the air that is..(-:..).
Oh my...This IS Bvlgari and in its best dress, a powdery-pink one for sure (so I do get Zvoncica's balletshoes alright - and what a beautyful review she wrote on this one!)
I also understand what has been said about the lasting power...but...one should not confuse 'comfort' and 'habituation' with 'lack of sillage'...
If you're not sure about the sillage, just take a little walk outside and find yourself comming home in that comforting scent that welcomes you back.
I LOVE this one for its subtlety, for its purity. The nose that created this scent must be one that does breath in inspiration and does breath out devotion...
It's beautyful...
No jeweler/perfumer house is as consequent in leaving their watermark in their perfumes as Bvlgari!
No matter what scent of their collection you will try, you will always get Bvlgari.
As for 'Pour Femme', I think it's the most elegant and 'grown up' one of them all.
I'd buy this one for fall to enjoy my Latte Macchiato when the wind sweeps the rain against my window, cuddling up with a good book and imagining I had a fireplace...
What can I say. This stuff if heaven in a bottle. Have EDT and just ordered EDP because I would have to use way tooooo much EDT. It just smells divine.
Bvlgari Pour Femme opens with a burst of beautiful flowers (if these are the aldehydes Sherapop descibes, then sign me up) but it kind of fades into the background after that. I also agree with her that is has some complexity & uniqueness to it.
I find most Bvlgari scents to be beautiful, etheral creatures (with some notable exceptions) which are very light & wearable... this is not really my style though. I like an inital smack in the chops and a tap on my shoulder every now & again to remind me I am wearing invisible magic.
All in all, a very lovely scent and it would suit girls who are delicate, ladylike & pretty. Or ballerinas.
Dang! This fragrance smells G-O-O-D on me! Finally! One that doesn't turn sour, acrid, foul & nasty! Right off the top, the violets smile out a 'hello' and the rest, well, it just gets better & better...
very elegant, but waaaay too strong for me.. not headache strong, but still over the top.. misting is the only option..
This is a very sweet fragrance, literally. You may have to swat the bees away from yourself, because they may mistake you for a dandelion.
I am having hard time speaking (writing, to be more exact) about Pour Femme. And I will admit here and now, that I had certain prejudice that this is boring, tiny, soapy, look a like perfume. I acquainted Pour Femme several days ago. My shame was endless.
There she is, in the ball room with mirrors. Sitting in rocking chair made of oak. The ballet shoes are on her feet. I think she is a dancer, but I am not sure. There is a music playing from a point which I can’t determine. Spring by Vivaldi. It plays and stops from time to time. The beauty of her silence entered my mind. Like magician, like hypnotist, like fairy.
She made several signs with her hands when she saw me, and a voice, from I don’t know where, said: she was hoping you will come one day, to watch her dance, to applaud when music stops, to nap in her rocking chair.
The beauty of her silence entered my heart. Like divinity.
This is a really pretty scent. There are so many notes and they blend nicely to make a fresh powdery smell. It reminds me of the VS secret garden collection in the nineties. I don't know which one, but the aroma is reminiscent of that time period. This pairs nicely with BBW sandalwood rose.
This is a great and elegant scent. A kind of scent that I would like to have as a gift from my boyfriend. It smells very good: I enjoy the violet-peachy start, the well balanced rosy flowery heart and the woody, benzoine vanilla base. It is longlasting and is wearable everywhere daytime.
But I will not buy this one. I have so many other interesting fragrances with twists and turnes. With screaming topnotes, pounding hearts and sensual, almost sexual basenotes. I have strange frags that you really have to learn to love. But when you do, you'll love them even more. And you will never ever get bored of them.
If I was given Pour Femme I would appreciate it a lot and use it at work or just daytime, but I would never invest money in a scent like this. It just doesn't intrigue me enough.
Interestingly, I put on three Sofia Grojsman fragrances today whitout knowing it: Bvlgari Pour Femme, Yvresse and Volupte. The one that had twists and turns for me was Yvresse, (that I must have). This one is really good, but not as good as Yvresse.
One of my consistent "go-to" daytime fragrances. Have worn this for several years. Thanks to this website, I am discovering that I have the strongest preference for chypre florals and florals.
I would not personally classify this fragrance as a "show-stopper", it is simply beautiful and feminine. If you like classic floral fragrances that are complementary to your persona, vs overwhelming, then I believe you might like this. This fragrance is another that I consistently get compliments on (mostly other women). I wear it for daytime (church, office, lunch dates) when I want to complete my outfit and smell pretty, but not come on too strongly. Lasts throughout the day (one of my personal requirements; will not use a fragrance that I have to continually refresh all day).
I would describe it as truly floral, very feminine and totally classy (as a Bvlgari fragrance should be!!)
BULGARI POUR FEMME has a notable amount of benzoin/styrax (not sure which accounts for the distinctive quality of this fragrance, since the two notes so often appear together) presence that will probably turn aldehyde haters away in droves. On the other hand, aldehyde lovers should find much to love here, for BPF offers far more than just another bouquet of flowers (without, however, smelling anything like Chanel no 5...),
BULGARI opens with a touch of not-too-sweet fruit and spice, but the deep resins also immediately bind the powdery florals from the very beginning, imparting a je ne sais quoi quality to this longlasting edp with good sillage on my skin.
My impression from the comments of other reviewers is that on some skins benzoin/styrax resins do not cling. But on mine, they really do, making this a unique and worthwhile floral fragrance. I know of no other commercial perfume that offers anything like this beautiful resinous-floral amalgam. The drydown is a complex, ambery, slightly musky, and still resinous yet somehow powdery floral layer.
BULGARI POUR FEMME has both depth and complexity, worthy qualities which I do not often encounter in twenty-first-century perfumes.
Bulgari Pour Femme is a sophisticadet,elegant and discreet scent.I love the violet note and the musky base.The lasting power is ok.
I had this when it first came out. I loved it at first, but got tired of it soon thereafter. I keep smelling tea. After the initial top notes wear off...all I smell is tea. ????
This one had me confused. I had the low expectations of typical bland flower bouquet, but somehow I managed to be let down! Instead of quiet classic flowers, I got a little whiff of powder and - poof! - gone. Like magic. I sprayed a generous spray on a tester strip at Macy's, put it down two seconds to spray some Bvlgari BLV, and when I turned back, I couldn't find the Pour Femme tester strip! It literally smelled the same as all the unused ones lying about the counter. Perplexed, I tried this again with various papers and cloths and patches of skin. Same result. I swear that tester bottle was full of powdery water.
For something with so little lasting power and sillage, you might as well buy water. Much cheaper too.
What is there not to like about Bvlgari pour Femme? This fragrance is pure elegance, perfection and class.
Appropriate for any occasion or season, you'll feel instantly feminine and beautiful when wearing this glorious fragrance.
Bvlgari pour Femme opens with a fresh and clean bouquet of flowers with subtle citrusy undertones brought about by the bergamot and orange blossom. This scent is mostly floral from beginning to end, fresh and pretty carnation, violet, iris, jasmine, rose and lily-of-the-valley.
Slightly powdery in the drydown yet somewhat rich and woodsy, this fragrance concludes beautifully. The lasting strength was wonderful in my opinion.
Although Bvlgari pour Femme isn't entirely unique, there is something very sensual and expensive about it which should appeal to those that seek a sophisticated and distinguished fragrance.
Very FEMININE !
I love this flowery, delicate, clean, powdery fragrance !!! For me BLV Femme it's an every-day , classy -Romantic frangrance. I would wear it in the winter-spring season, i don't see it suitable for the summer time though...;)
Very lovely fragrance !
Bvlgari Pour Femme is not a traditional floral perfume, as you may expect if you happen to read the notes before testing. Though it contains lily of the valley, rose, jasmine, and violet, it is not like any other perfumes I’ve tested whose hearts have been centered around those notes mentioned. Instead, Femme draws a little nectar from each bloom and keeps them wrapped up tightly with warm notes of sandalwood and heliotrope.
At first, Femme seems a bit bright and aldehydic. This is where the orange blossom is most present and where the jasmine tea seems most prominent, and a faint hint of green apple can be detected. Within minutes, however, the violet makes an appearance and things become softer, more powdery, and this tone sets the mood for the tender rose, which is a most welcome flower in this soft, old-fashioned bouquet.
The longer I have Femme on my skin, the more violet-y and powdery it becomes, slowly picking up sweetness as it hums along before finally trailing out of sight. Unfortunately, Femme doesn’t last very long – one can expect two or three hours of sillage at most, if sprayed only on skin, and, as is the case with most violet-based perfumes, the sillage is moderate at best.
While not a modern, fresh fragrance, as its bottle may suggest, Femme is not an “old lady perfume” by any means. Though powder is often associated with older women who’ve a taste for older scents, the powder in Femme is more closely related to the powder in Kenzo Flower; it is sweet and polite, never taking over the composition or smothering the flowers to the point of no return. This is an innocent perfume, yet a sophisticated one.
I chose this perfume when I was shopping and was 15 at the time. It is a very grown up, elegant, distinctive fragrance. I know it does not appeal to younger ladies but the smell is quite different and unique compared to what my teenage friends wore at the time, such as Impulse body sprays.... hmmm.. I would definitely buy this again, it is classic yet modern feminine and strong.
Naw - like falling face down into Emily Bronte's rose-scented talcum powder box. Had to give it away, apologies from lovers of this fragrance. I think, I have difficulties with rose in general. (not the flower, though)
I love the opening violet topnotes. Delicately woven with the sweetness of bergamot and orange, two of my favourites. This fragrance is light and lovely, but doesn't last and doesn't cling to my clothes unfortunately. Definitely a summery fragrance, to be worn with white cotton and sandals.
A bit conservative, sensual and very elegant.
Totally unique note of jasmine tea.
Sophisticated, but refers strongly to tradition.
Simple and elegant bottle was created by Thierry de Baschmakoff.
I always thought that perfumes with name 'Pour Femme' are boring as hell, but when I tried Lacoste's 'Pour Femme' I changed my mind. I loved it immediately.
So you can guess that I expected surprise from kinda places where surprises are extinct.
In few short words I'll describe Bvlgari's efforts as boring, feminine, predictable.
Although it appears quite a piece for those who just want to complete their image with fragrant finish, Pour Femme is very Bvlagri. It's light, barely there, but it still has some kinda signature in it.
Opening is very apple like, but this time nor candied, nor sour. That apple is one of my favorites to eat (but not wear, though)- that's floury apple.
Later subtle sourness and florals appear. It's very elegant, not strong, very suitable for office or any other situation. It's really a classic stuff, but too much light for me. (Well not light like Max Mara at least).
I am not a fan of this fragrance. I thought that the frag would be more complex than it is. It is nice but I don't think it anything that would stay in my memory. Its a mature scent and has a bit of a soap scent to it. It reminds me of Guerlain L'instant Magique minus the powdery finish.
Bvlgari is starting to replace Guerlain in my heart. I already owe and love Eau parfumée au thé rouge and Jasmin Noir. This one is definitely a perfume that every woman should have. All the notes melt well together creating this very feminine and classy scent. It is not too strong nor too soft, not too floral nor too overwhelming. It is just perfect!
Hmm. It was second real perfume from my life. At that moment I loved this fragrance. But now I feel like is a little bit horror for me, extremely rose and powdery - as if a candy stick was left in the sun in an incredible hot day.
But I have a friend who was an incredible fan of this fragrance - in my opinion BVLGARI Company should choose her as an image. She has her 11 bottle of BVLGARI POUR FEMME.
A lovely floral, heavy on the rose. Dries down with heavier floral and a little less rose, but it's still a very pretty, feminine scent.Unfortunately, like most Bvlgari scents, on final dry down it is way too sugary sweet on me. Shame, because the opening is lovely.
How I wanted to love this but along with many other Bvlgari scents, it turned into a soapy mess on me. Don't get me wrong I like fresh smells but this literally smelled like dial on me. I couldn't get any rose, lily, jasmine or anything it was just soap, soap, and more soap. A big flop in my opinion.
I have used this perfume for many years and just love it.
I don't know anything about "notes" I just know that it is a beautiful, soft, romantic perfume that makes me feel very feminine.
Carnations, jasmine, almonds, vanilla... these are the scents of Pour Femme, harmonizing beautifully to create one of the most evocative fragrances I've ever experienced. It's indicative of every classical notion of femininity, while remaining completely current and modern. It's powdery, but fresh, sweet with out smelling at all of burnt sugar, and blooms into a crisp pungent flower that seems to stain the air around you. It's so beautiful.
this is a lovely, flowery, warm fragrance. it is very classy and stilish. it's like the channel no.5 of Bvlgari. very long lasting.
Pour femme is a nice and elegant but flowery perfume, not to heavy or overwhelming. At first it smells like green ripe apples, very fresh and clean, after awhile it turns into a feminine warm scent, which reminds me a lil bit on Lolita Lempicka fragrances. I think it could be worn day and night on every occasion.
it is a very glamour perfume which invocs hidden feelings...clasy and silent smels like diamonds in the rain:)
This is a classic floral: rose, jasmine, carnation, muguet. Since I'm pretty much your "classic floral girl," I thought I'd love it. I don't, because somewhere toward the bottom of the heart is something that turns into the dreaded musty "old-lady face powder" on me, so that every time I try my sample I have to endure 20 minutes of smelling like mildew. I think it may be either the mimosa or the violet -- it may just be my skin chemistry and not everyone will react this way, but I can't wear it. Wish I could, because other than the 20m of mustiness, it's elegant, feminine, and completely unlike the currently-popular fruity-fresh-sweet pop-princess scents.
Banal scent. Has no depth or interesting notes. There are no base notes. No amber, cedar, benzoin, styrax or woody notes. Best thing I can say is it smells like expensive hairspray. Not worth the price.
had this scent around 2 weeks now i love it. i really getting in to florals more now. even the ones i thought were orientals turns out to be floral. ummm
anyway i recommend this scent. if you like deep long lasting smells
Lovely opening withflowery-powdery notes, but the drydown smells like dirty grass on me.
I like BVLGARI pour femme very much.it reminds me a bit organza first light,but this one is a bit spicy at the first and the floral notes are younger.if you're a young girl and you like floral perfumes,without being over powering and powdery,this is the right choice.innocent,peaceful,modest and suitable for every age.although about the seasons I think it's too floral to be wore at winter.in the heart I smell something sweet like honey.
Here it's mentioned that it's launched in 2006,but I think it should be launched sooner than that time.at least I got the sample 6 years ago!I may be mistaken,but I get to search the real released time on net to make sure.
Bvlgari Pour Femme opens with a scent of sour ripe apples on my skin. It is so fruity and edible! The drydown is powdery and flowery, but still very bright and sunny.
Imagine that you are walking in a garden of roses when they are all in bloom, wearing a long light pink dress and holding a red ripe apple in your hand. It is summertime and the sunshine makes you smile, wind is playing in your loose hair, you bite the apple and pick a rose to smell it. That's what Pour Femme is for me - romantic, classic and intimate feminine fragrance. Simply beautiful!
I like it a lot...I remember Volupte when I smell it and sometimes to tresor...
i like it very much.. the most feminine fragrance. i love it still after 7 years
This is the perfume that Jane Austen must have worn! So romantic and feminine, light and at the same time noticeable.
Like a beautiful lace sewn on a Regency period dress, this will be the perfect compliment on a woman with sentimental and artistic personality.
Not young, not old, just pretty and delicate floral.
sweet.I think every female in any age can use this perfume but after all not that seductive or special.
That's the best one I've ever had. Fell in love at the first smell. Stunning and surprising; this scent is soo different than any other. It's kind of fresh, but light, mild and smooth, and makes my mood higher.
A gorgeous scent, I've loved it at first smell and I immediately bought a large size bottle...but after a week of daily use I've found it "monotonous", so I gave it to my mother: fortunately she loves it!
I love this fragrance, not surprising, since I am a big fan of Bvlgari. I get a strong violet at the beginning that pops up now and again during the middle florals and after the dry-down to a nice musky wood.
Elegant, feminine, soft and beautiful; a wonderful classic.
very fresh, perhaps good scent in its group, too fresh for me. strange though it that fresh I find it heavier than BVLGari 'Jasmin Noir', which I tried at the same time. It has something I personally don't like
this is one of the most elegant perfumes ive ever had and smelled. i like it a lot, its feminine sophisticated, romantic, it could be my signature scent if i wasnt so obsessed with perfumes that i always want to use different ones:)
i like the bottle too, but i like simple bottles more
gorgeous. the scent is best several hours into the wear. a sweat brings it out even better.
it is best parfum for me
when i wear this parfum my soul is brimming over with contentedness.
It's just a classic flowery feminine perfume, i love it...
I'm a big fan of Bvlgari since buying BLV.
Bvlgari Pour Femme is very nice, quite subtle, but a little too light for me. I would buy it at the right price but for now I will stick to BLV.
Aside from the complexity of the stuff in it, this perfume is elegant and simple once sprayed. Pretty and sweet. As the description states, this is a feminine classic. I really adore Bvlgari scents. They are always light, but beautiful and womanly.
I happen to like this scent, but my thing is the fragrance is so light!!! I like my perfumes to be noticed.
Your classic lilly-of-the-valley, jasmine, rose classic scent. Eternally boring.
