Gai Mattiolo Gai Mattiolo for women

I so enjoy this pefume, it's alot like Chanel Allure just not as loud, more creamier and smooth. I highly reccomend :)

The bottle is adorable as well.

Also I think this should be listed under bourgehese? Along with a few others.

For you Sira des Indes lovers, this perfume is heaven on earth!!!
I love it even more than my Patou!!!

This perfume is the twin to Patou Sira des Indes. I have them both and I love this one a bit more even. Lovely complex perfume.

I purchased my bottle of GAI MATTIOLO from Borghese, but I never really took to it, certainly not in the way that I fell for IL BACIO, of which I managed to consume about a gallon. In contrast, my single bottle of GAI MATTIOLO still contains about 90 of its 100ml!

Pulling GAI MATTIOLO out and testing it today, I remember why: Although the opening has a lightly sweet and friendly, if nondescript, fruity floral quality, the composition becomes progressively more unpleasant with the passage of time, with a tinge near the end, sad to say, of putridity.

The culprits here, apparently incompatible with my skin's chemistry--and perhaps exacerbated by the heat--are melon and pear. But I'll take this up one more time in cold weather before writing it off for good...

I feel that this is a youthful, playful fragrance. I reminds me A LOT of Chanel Allure, especially when I layer it with the body lotion. Both EDT and lotion are incredibly inexpensive. A word of warning: I wouldn't wear this one to an important board meeting.

It was such a pleasure for me to buy this bottle...It is a happy, light, easygoing fragrance.At the same time it is fresh and sweet, invigorating and calming.It is a fragrance for young ladies or for those, who are young at heart.This fragrance almost requires a smile and a frilly attitude!
It starts as a nice, juicy slice of what it feels like Honeydew melon with a drop of citrus and develops into a floral accord, spiced with green fleshy leaves.I can feel a pear, and it is crispy and green...I wore it 10 years ago, but recently refreshed my memory - and I think I am ready for more!
The only minus is it does not last very long on skin, but forever on clothes.
