Image Woman Cerruti for women

One of the best citrus fragrances I have tested so far.

Image opens with a very refreshing grapefruit note which almost feels like starting a day with a pleasant smile on face. A little later pepper joins and here I would say that spiciness of pepper is made for citruses. As it travels to the phase where it begins to settle, there's mild coolness of mint combined with wood to accompany grapefruit and pepper. Very clean and refreshing scent!

Over all opinion, I would love to buy me a big bottle and wear it all year round. It's a kind of fragrance that one will never grow tired of wearing. It has everything in balance, citrus, spice and wood.

This is my number one favorite, always safe, fresh cologne.

Completely feminine! Fresh, very spicey, creamy, utterly lovely scent. Bursting with fruit! Strong but not heavy. So so beautful, Great value for money.

At first a blast of citrus. After 10 minutes I can feel pepper, grapefruit and cedar. Not a very female'ish scent - but neither a male scent. I would call it a bit dry and very nice (after that first citrus-chock). I like my scents to be a little bit spicy and this one is. No sweet tones at all - which I like.

denna öppnar starkt citrusdoftande. Efter 10 minuter så framträder peppar, grapefrukt och ceder. Inte så kvinnlig doft - men inte heller typiskt manlig, jag skulle vilja kalla den lite "torr" och väldigt trevlig (efter första citruschocken). Jag gillar aningens kryddiga dofter och det har denna, inga söta dofttoner alls, jag gillar den.

One of the best, really sexy and strong, it says: I am not a bunch of flower walking around, I am a women!

This is a very androginous scent, modern, peppery and fresh. The top notes of grapefruit are not my type, but after a while this scent becomes a very good leather, with a lot of pepper and mint. A great perfume for office, reminds me a little bit of Hugo Boss Woman.
If you are looking for a cheap office fragrance that goes with a modern suit, this is the one.

Bought this for my friend for her birthday, n she cried when she opened the gift to see this. Coz this was her dead daughter's perfume. She's been looking for this perfume her whole life, n she can't find it. I'm so happy i can bought Image for her, just so she can smell her daughter smell wheneves she miss her.

I bought Image without any great expectations....just something to wear to the gym for a change. I have quite a few citrusy fragrances for sports, but I never thought that a citrusy fragrance could smell so elegant and feminine until I tried Cerutti Image. I was really impressed with this little gem...citrus with subtle leathery and woodsy notes are just amazing!
One of the best blind purchases I ever made!

A fresh leathery aromatic, subtle and unforgettable. It inspires indeed spontaneity and cheerfulness especially when used after a shower in the morning. A good example of how wonderful a fragrance for women could be, without making use of tones of sandalwood, vanilla, sweet flowers, and so on. I normally prefer Lacoste pour Femme, but this is a fine alternative. The only problem is its lasting-power, which is rather poor on my skin.

I use to wear it more in winter and springtime, than in summer, since it stays longer on my skin in those seasons. I'm not usually obeying the "rule" which suggests that "warm spicy orientals" are to be worn
in winter and fresh-fruity or acquatic-florals only in summer. (Actually I wouldn't wear orientals at all, and the idea to smell like a Christmas cake during winter months makes me sick.) This can be a good choice also for colder days, if you don't care about that "rule".
4/5

It is a very good fragrance if you're fed up with being a girly girl and tired with stereotypized, overloaded with sweetness, obligatorily sexy women's scents but still want to smell good. It's quite sharp but in a nice, balanced way (it has a similar slightly sharp note to L'eau par Kenzo, I don't know what it is but makes me think of carbon) but still unobtrusive and refreshing. For me the biggest advantage is a very, very delicate, hardly detectable leather note - I like leather but normally it's too much and too overwhelming for me - and here it's just a perfect dose to give it some edge and lordly touch and make it more than just a fresh scent like 100 others.
The biggest con is that it has some top note that reminds me a detergent. But it's bearable for all other virtues' sake.
The lasting power is not so great, but not so horrible either (c.a. 3 hours on my skin), especially for this magnificent price. Sillage seems to be poor on me although I remember smelling it on a couple of people out there. I admit I wish somebody pumped it up a bit. On the other hand it is completely discrete, which is good.

Citrusy&Peppery refreshing, optimistic and very office appropriate scent for spring and summer time.
Nice, understated and inexpensive.
I must agree there is something delicately metallic in it, but I do not get even a hint of leather.
Neither do I find it masculine or unisex, still it does not mean men cannot try it.
Good job, Mr. Cerruti.

Love this one. I wouldn't compare it with any other fragrance - it's one of those classic ones I come back to every now and then. I'm surprised by some negative reviews on it as I always get asked about its name-people love it, never heard a bad comment before. I guess it doesn't work on everybody - luckily it smells gorgeous on me :)

Don't waste your money on this one. I will personally stick to my light blue and DKNY. This stuff was bad. No character what so ever. Very masculine. You want leather go for Fendi. I don't care how cheap it is, you just don't pay to smell bad. I paid 15 dollars for mine and returned it within an hour. The smell left on me all day was unbearable.

Cerruti IMAGE WOMAN is definitely misnamed. This is a completely universal fragrance which may even be a tad more masculine than feminine. Flowers and sweetness, often considered characteristically feminine components, are nowhere to be sniffed in this composition!

Instead IMAGE (WO)MAN opens smoothly with a mélange of subdued aromatic notes, including citrus rind and pepper, suspended in what I register as a clean, lightly resinous and musky base. The fragrance develops over the course of several minutes into a tender leather fragrance with just a touch of wood (not sandalwood...), still suspended in what seems to be clean musk. Good longevity and low sillage.

I like this high quality, subtle composition very much and recommend it to anyone who appreciates gentle leather fragrances. This may be one of the best bargains around, judging by other reviewers' remarks. If I see a bottle of this somewhere, I'll definitely snap it up!

This almost like Lacoste's Hot Play-for girls :-). Actually, after reading up on it and finding it in a TJX store, my Mom bought it for herself as it is very similar to Hot Play with a little more floral feel and a 'cooler' vibe in general...

This begins with grapefruit and a fresh cracked pepper note, clean but spicy. The mint in the heart is more of a smooth cool spearmint than a cold sharp peppermint; and the gentian flower is softly present adding an air of femininity, but not overpowering the scent. There is a slight metallic vibe here, more of a lite sheen. The finish has birch/leather, but it is more like a teaberry/suede, than a really heavy smoky leather, and it works well with the other notes. The cedar is nice and the amber is not too heavy either, and makes this settle nicely on the skin. If you can get past the slight floral in the heart, this could totally be worn by a man as easily as a woman. In fact-when my HP was running low, I would wear this; though Mom insisted it was too feminine for me, I found it quite nice.

Sillage: average
Longevity: good
Overall: 3.75/5

This scent is different from most "female" citrus aromatics, the citrus is clear, and there are no other fruits to muddy its clarity. The single floral note of gentian is very nice, and the addition of pepper and mint along with leather, amber and cedar would seem almost too "butch" but here are subtle and pleasing.

This comes very close to being unisex-but after this last evaluation, I should say it is more of a slightly masculine feminine scent than a true uni. 'Image' is a very good name for this, as it gives an image of a soft but strong woman: sharp and cool, with a spicy side and very serious yet sensual foundation.

synthetic and bland.. fresh nonetheless.. but the ginger really puts me off.

All I smell is an intense ginger aroma in Image...(And I don't like ginger)None of the other ingredients listed came to my nose...
Whem you're a fan of ginger fragrances, you may probably like this one too.
But for me it's a two thumbs down...

I’ve never ever fancied that I can enjoy a citrus scent. And here I am wearing Cerruti Image and finding it absolutely adorable from beginning to end. Pepper at the top notes, mint at the heart and leather and amber in the base are the components that save the fragrance from becoming a mediocre citric concoction. Cerruti Image is heady, crisp and very invigorative at the beginning. Then it gets warmer, earthier and more sensual. At this phase, one may think this is not a fragrance, but one’s natural skin scent. Beautiful, unostentatious, easy to like and to wear. This summer I reach for it quite often.

At first Spritz the opening is pleasent
with Grapefruit and Mint. Pepper as the
center but it all evaperates into this
Unpleasent Leather note i'm a huge fan or leather but this smells it came from
horse Manure from a farm it has a funky
scent to it making leather out of it
and the birch i'm not really crazy about
eather does not notice a amber note
ceder is just a Wisp.

I using it for everyday, about 7 years :) And I had 9 bottles of it :)
Its fresh and spicy, but not too much, its sweet on me, and very long lasting, event edt stays 5-6 h. Its the best synthesis between grapefruit and peper (also mint is not strong its more fresh).
I love it, also it costs not much ;)

I bought Cerutti Image Woman after only being exposed to the top note. Not such a good idea. The invigorating pepper and grapefruit notes only last a short while, and an hour into wear it has transformed into a heavy, spicy, woody fragrance. I could see how this could appeal to some people. The note of leather is nice, but the wood and the amber I find to be overdone. Notice I didn't mention the mid notes, and that is simply because they didn't develop. I think if those notes would have lingered and gave way gently to the heavier base notes, this might have been nice for late fall and winter. I paid only $10 for a 1.7 oz bottle at TJX so I'm not completely let down. But I think I'll give this to my husband. It smells way more masculine than feminine. It's not a bad fragrance, actually if you are into the heavier perfume you'll enjoy it; this one is just not for me.

I liked this perfume at first but went off it very quickly for some reason and it started to smell slightly nauseating to me!

This is really unisex scent so my husband and i use toghter , this is lovely for woman and sexy for man I think .I can smell leather sometimes in here from my husband skin so i cannot stop sniffing.

I had it but there must be an ingredient that I cannot stand. It was even nauseating for me.

I love it , it's fresh , a little masculine , for a confident and independent woman .... refreshing

Abstract.
Modern, edgy, metallic.
Fresh, woody, leather.
Full of surprises.
At the beginning - very nippy and fresh, then more sensual and attracting.
Intriguing and non-obvious fragrance. It lacks the friendly floral notes and has a bit of acridity in the background.

The originators used the familiar, but surprising aroma of coal.

The perfume was made for a contemporary, active and creative woman, who spends more of her life working, and has a positive attitude to reality.

The bottle was created by Thierry de Baschmakoff. The words that are engraved on it go with the message of the fragrance:
'vision', 'future', 'inspiration', 'creativity', 'optimism' ...

Also, the poster is fantastic.

I love Cerruti Image !!!

It is little metallic but fine for every day wearing..Nice..
