Cerruti 1881 Collection Cerruti for women

I find it fresh, yet sweet and juicy: a smell for warmer days but I love to wear it in wintertime as well.

I bought this blind based on the reviews here and am disappointed. This is very herbal. It smells too much like an air freshener, a very strong air freshener. Not something I want to smell like. Not intriguing or inspiring at all. This is going back.

Fresh and sweet - perfect for balmy summer days!

Too strong, to overwhelming. Sorry to say, but I just hate it!

I am a great lover of florals and on my search for a new one I decided on blind buying Cerruti 1881.
I think it is a beautiful classical fragrance without smelling 'old'. Very original scent and is great as you won't find other people wearing it too often.
It is certainly not overpowering and like other reviews say, it gives a feeling of comfort.
Very versatile i would say, suitable for day or night, casual or romantic.

Unfortunately the EDP leaves my skin very quickly. Maybe it is just the way it sits on me personally. I should try it on a friend to see if this is the case or if it is a fragrance that sinks into you after a short while.. Softer than a lot of florals, very nice fragrance- glad i took a chance.

In one word: Mediterranean.
It starts with a sweet and juicy citrus note. Next comes the olive leaf even though I'd swear they've thrown the whole tree in there, must be the cypress playing in. Up till then I'm enjoying it a lot, it reminds me of a vacation in Italy.
Unfortunately I don't care much for the dry-down. Cypress simply isn't my note. To me it always smells a little weird, stuck somewhere between woody, musky, mossy and basil. I'd say 1881 Collection feels a little more complex but I can't really place anything else, this confusing cypress tends to turn my brain to mush.
Overall a pretty nice fragrance with reasonable staying power, about 7 hours on me.

I assumed that CERRUTI 1881 COLLECTION edp was simply a more concentrated solution of CERRUTI 1881 edt and so was very happy to find it online and bought it immediately upon spotting it, as I find that the edt (which I really like) needs to be reapplied too often.

In fact, CERRUTI 1881 COLLECTION is an entirely different perfume, albeit an equally nice one, in my opinion. Just as subtle and smooth as its namesake, with a similar floral woody musk demeanor (not so oriental, to my nose...), the flanker has a different note line-up and is more resiny and less soapy in the drydown, but smells just as swell--plus it has excellent staying power.

This being my third Cerruti experience, I have now added this house to my very short list of those from whom I may buy bottles scent unsniffed. The Cerruti aesthetic is certainly not for everyone, but it certainly is for me! (-:

It is an oriental smooth fragrance with a woody dry-down that is sensuous and warm. It is so well balanced that it can be worn in daytime as well as in the evening - I dare say it is a good chameleon scent. It really smells classy.

I got it like present, from person who don't know me at all...
No no no, this perfume, I think for gradmothers...it's very strong and I do not like...

It is in my opinion more interesting than the original but I wish I could say I like it.it is lacking in something.... it has more zest, more character than the original ..I get fruits, but nothing sweet or cloying..the olive leaf makes it a bit different.the drydown is also nice...all in all a nice romantic pleasant scent! but it leaves me cold!!!not so much oriental in my opinion..more like a woodsy floral..nice !!

I can't make up my mind about this perfume. I had tested it in a department store, and another perfume on the other wrist, and I thought I really loved it so I decided to order a bottle over the internet, which I just got today. I've tried it again and it seems quite different to how I remember it smelling when I tested it. Although it's pleasant, I don't think it's anything special at the moment. In some ways it smells slightly unisex and it also fades very quickly, on me after 3-4 hours. So far I'm not finding it at all sexy or even particularly girly and I might well return it for a perfume I really like, like Carolina Herrera 212 Sexy!

I had never tried this scent before I got it from a swap and I NEVER regretted it!
Starts fresh and cirusy then the freshness remains to develop into a more flowery and woody sensation - all of them young and joyful.
A mustwear for the warm seasons!

this is the one that i bought 5 time in a year cause i liked to much and i still do.

I didn't like it at first.Don't know why.But as soon as I smelled it after a few hours I felt like it matched my mood exactly.It is a rich,but light scent.You become addicted to it after a few times of using it,and it's definetly something you must have if you are looking for something soft and sensual,but not too overwhelming on cold winter days.

Last year I had a choice to get this one and the original one. I made a horrible mistake of getting two bottles of 1881, for me and my sister, which ended up being offered as presents to distant family members, so we would not have to smell it.
This one, which I believe is a limited edition, since I couldnt find it anywhere in stores this year, is so much nicer and optimistic. While 1881, though nice, on my skin starts smelling 'old' after some time (which I discovered too late), Collection remains fresh and delicate. It is an interesting fragrance, and while I cant see it becoming a signature one, would certainly be a nice addition to my collection. I see it perfect for warmer days, since it is not to sweet and will not make your head turn.
