Fuel For Life Femme (for women)

Designer: Diesel Olfactive Group: Chypre Floral

This perfume was introduced together with the version for men in 2007 and it brings chypre floral notes. It was created by two ‘noses for perfumes’, Annick Menardo, Thierry Wasser, Jacques Cavallier and Thierry Vasseur, who enriched the top notes with fresh mandarin and a touch of pink pepper. The heart is dominated by sweet and clear jasmine, decorated with nutmeg notes, while the base fondles with sensual notes of musk and patchouli. The perfume is available as 30, 50 and 75 ml edp. You can read more about this fragrance on Diesel’s website.

Looking at the notes I think "interesting". I love the fruity white cool heat of pink peppercorns, jasmine & manderines should be a gorgeous combination, I'm even a fan of patchouli, vetiver, & nutmeg. But, on my skin, this does not work. At all.

I think there must be something else in the mix, because I get a very 'high' sweetness with an incredibly bitter pepperiness sat atop an uneasey base. Something horribly synthetic tries to mask all the notes & grabs at me...they got the name right, it is like a form of fuel!

It is not in-your-face strong, but it catches the back of my throat & although it settles a little after time it never feels natural. Towards the end, I even got a tiny whiff of wilted roseheads & old ashtrays :( NOTHING like Coco Madamoiselle IMO.

This perfume is a disaster on my skin. Judging from the polarised reviews it is one to try before you buy.....it'll either work with you or fight against you.

Fabulous fragrance. I agree the beginning is very much like Coco Mademoiselle but the dry down is less strong than Coco Mad.Its what you would wear for day and Coco Mad is what you would wear for the night. I love both.

A great spiced-fresh combination of mandarin, nutmeg and jasmine (I can distinctly smell all of these); it does give you energy and motivation to enjoy life and be active. Very suitable for every-day use and good mood, and also very recognizable.

I agree that in a way it is like Coco Mademoiselle. It evolves in a different way though. I think that this one is more modern and energising, it's more casual,
while Mademoiselle seems more suitable for big nights out.
I didnt appreciate it first, but I gave it another go when my sister bought it, and to be honest, I was delighted. Spicy, modern, sharp, but not aggressive. Moreover it lasts very long on my skin, even hours after spraying I can steel feel it around.

Ι just bought it today and I'm thrilled! I'm in love with it! Sexy, feminine, unique, promising perfume, for me one of the best I ever had!

I love fuel for life. I love the title and the bottle and the scent and the posters. It's my FAVOURITE.
12/23/08 00:53:03
Distinctive and Modern,but this is not for every one,and not for everyday wear IMO.The dry-down is nice but the opening is too sweet for me.I would love this one if I can stand the top notes,unfortunately I can't.Anyway,I think it's worth a try because it's really unique.Plus,for this one,the scent in a a bottle and on the skin is different,so if you want to try,try in one your skin,and find the answer.Love it or Hate it,just that.

warm, spicy smell, perhaps smelling some wood in it as well..don;t find it strong at all, actually it is slightly too faint and light for me. My husband liked it as well, though unlimited version was somehow better I think
12/05/08 07:15:58
I'm not into Diesel's fragrances and Fuel for Life is no exception in my seemingly endless dislike, shame though ;) This one is very strong, very overpowering and very seductive perfume, definitely not for the shy and retiring types of women. Alexis Carrington/Joan Collins from Dynasty could have worn this if it had been available in the 80's, I think...it's a fragrance for "alpha-female".
12/05/08 04:10:08
intense, i like in small quantities i liked this perfume makes me fell like a panther, is so sexy
12/01/08 20:21:35
 
this is tooooooo sharp too strong too 'harsh'.it burn my nose but i love its bottle
11/19/08 15:58:10
I certainly understand why many don't like this perfume, it is strong and sharp first, turning into heavy and sweet. I have a soft spot for this kind of fragrances, so I like it very much. It is alluring and makes me feel sexy like wearing stiletto heel shoes.
11/19/08 12:09:04
i gave it away, hated it! Maybe you should try the unlimited.
11/15/08 05:16:05
It's like nothing I tried before, but I don't like it at all. Much too strong for me.

It´s not my #1 perfume, actually I only used it in one occasion, my wedding (on march).
I have to use it more often.....
11/04/08 05:58:53
The commercial wants you to think that this is a perfume for naughty girls/women, no girly girls. Well let me tell you what I think. This one starts out quite feminine. It really reminds me of Coco Mademoiselle. Maybe because of the jasmine & mandarin? But the longer you wear it, the more it changes. The magic of the perfume kicks in, feminine classy scent transforms to (commercial like) naughty scent! And, sorry for the comparison again, it turns into Dior Addict! A cocky, noticeable, sharp... smell. This is what happens on my skin, anyway. Hope it's helpful.

give me seriously headache...will not ever wearing this perfume anymore!!
11/03/08 18:34:53
i received this perfume last winter..january i believe..it`s so unique..for me at least it has something exotic..nice..but at one moment i couldn`t use it anymore..gives me headeach so i will pass it to my sister which adores it
11/03/08 16:52:42
I think it's very sexy and I would wear this everyday if I had a bottle. Love Fuel for life but you do have to spray it on, I think everyone's chemistry is different, this one works for me...
11/03/08 08:48:55
Well I love this fragrance! So, I don't relly understand the bad reviews of Luciana and collector, but I respect their point of view!
I think this fragrance is warm, sweet and very long lasting (it lasts all day) and it's delicious!
This scent makes me feel confident and sexy and i've got a lot of compliments when i wear this one!
It's classy and sexy and i recommend it!

Cuando probé este perfume, me remitio directamente a una fragancia que habia tenido cuando era adolescente que se llamaba Byzance de Rochas. y ha tenido el mismo resultado para mí, con la diferencia que al rochas si lo compré, la primera impresión es dulce y rico pero después se convierte en totalmente dulce y repugnante y al poco tiempo gracias a Dios desaparece!!!, digo gracias porque es realmente apestoso.
Sobre que es un gran robo de un perfume que creo que no existe más, han logrado arruinarlo y empeorarlo en un 100%
10/05/08 16:46:55
I have chanel chance, and they're similar enough that i wouldn't consider buying this one
10/05/08 15:27:22
that one is very sexy and warm it's more suitable for winter days but don't wear it in a job interview cause not all guys like it :)

This is pretty hot stuff!Like a sexy bite...I really enjoy this scent:)

I agree with pimpnazt. It smells afwul, much too sweet. It's presence is too overwhelming. It tends to linger.
06/21/08 08:06:28
 
If I didn't have so many other perfumes, I could wear this one every day...it's so delicious and long-lasting.
05/22/08 14:45:56
Very much a sexy, confident perfume, packed full of woman. Can't wait to get my hands on it! I will probably wear this one obsessively :) It's a really intense, classy perfume with a hint of rebel for that modern touch. Hehe, I do find it to be a bit of a sex juice, in opposition to pimpnazt's comment. This scent has a lot of sex appeal! My boyfriend also loves the one for men.
01/06/08 06:31:23
I had to post this... I wore this all during the holiday season and received so many compliments.. as one person said to me.. this one is a homerun.

it's true, the perfume doesn't smell anything like it does in the bottle. when it dries, it becomes a sexy, warm, nostalgic scent. it's perfect for everyday wear.

This isn't hideous at all to me... it is actually a very warm pleasant scent. You can't smell the bottle, you have to spray it and let it dry to get it's true nature, if just sniff the bottle it doesn't smell anything like the fragrance upon drydown. When the salesperson at Macy's showed it to me I was prepared to hate it but it actually reminded of Hugo Boss' XX in some way but has more of a bite to it. Very wearable fragrance that I love.

This smells hideous. What the ad and commercial want you to believe is that this is sex juice. It's not. It smells like fresh toilet water.

Great everyday perfume. Nice and warm, with hints of orange blossom and rose.
