Wings Giorgio Beverly Hills for women

this smells so good!

Bought a small mini-bottle from a sales bin. Never heard of it.

Reminds me of Eternity in some ways.
I get a spicyness to it like a carnation note(really into the carnation vibe at the moment) so that would seem like a floral oriental scent.

Very floral. But DEFINITELY NOT fruity.
Very strong...apply with light hand.
Nice for when one is in the mood for a bold floral fix.

I smelled this on a random stranger, and by the grace of a kind Fragrantican got a small decant in the mail to try. Big, white florals kind of scare me---sometimes they do awful things on my skin--so I approached Wings with some caution. I used the wand on the decant bottle to swipe a tiny bit on my wrist and decolletage.

The opening 10 minutes were odd; I got the gardenia, maybe the rose and what I'm pretty sure was the osmanthus--which gave it a "fruity" note, and also the tinyest hint of urine (oh no!). Deep sniffs gave the urine smell, so I stopped sniffing deeply and just breathed in the fragrance-- and that was the right strategy to appreciate Wings. It evolved into a glorious white floral, not screechy, not overbearing, just fresh and springy. I don't think I could pick out the peony, lilac and heliotrope, but together they gave a marvelous marvelously blended floral. I really enjoyed the middle notes of this fragrance, they were like a breath of fresh spring breeze.

The dry down is a pale amber, quite similar to D&G The One's dry down. It's not a bold, golden amber, but sweet and gentle.

Sillage was armslength, longevity about 5 hours (4 to get to the drydown). This was a lovely fragrance, I am so glad I got to try it.

Floral fruity? I don't see any fruits listed, just tons of flowers. What is it that makes it smell fruity?

I actually wore this a few weeks ago, on a girls night out. Not sure why i chose this one, i haven't been wearing it in over a decade (and yes it still smells the same, hasn't turned). I was a bit tired of my usual perfumes i guess. Lo and behold, i did get compliments that night. I remember one in particular, a guy dragged his friend to sniff my neck, and stated "this is how a woman should smell like" :D

I am rather excited! I've just come upon an old copy of Victoria magazine ~ with an UNOPENED tester flap of Wings!

The soaring picture of the woman jumping for joy in her yellow frock, captured me at once. WHY has no one opened this yet?! So I made myself wait until my own perfume - of - the - day began to fade before sampling Wings.

LIQUID SUNSHINE

I could have sworn I was smelling the yellow punch of Narcissus and the sweetness of Tuberose, but no. So this sharp and heady - sweet potion must be a combination of Gardenia, Lilac, and Marigold. Backed by the excellent base of Amber, Cedar, and Sandalwood.... what a fine balance.

This perfume perfectly conjures up sunshine, and actually delivers on it's ad copy. WOW. Pleasant surprise indeed!

I used to wear this in the early 1990's, along with New West Skinscent by Aramis. Both are fresh, aquatic fragrances. I used to wear this whilst working in a bar in my student days and I remember getting a lot of compliments with it, in fact one of my co-workers adopted it as her signature scent and still loves it to this day.

I tried Wings again recently, after finding a bargain in a TK Maxx, but sadly, it was too strong, too "chemical" for me, a little overpowering, not how I remember it at all. It reminded me of an old-lady type smell. I have just sold my bottle on Ebay.

At first spray is when its most offputting - when it settled down after a couple of hours, the smell was more pleasant, but not enough for me to wear again! Some things belong in the past, and this is one of those - "we should never look back cos we're not going that way!"

ooops * i meant *still smelling so strong..*

Lovely perfume, I had it like almost 10 years back and its still smelly so strong and good lol

I love it but it too me isent that strong but i do love it just got it yesturday!

I'm in love! My husband loves it too! Which is quite an accomplishment.

Happy Perfuming!♥

I didn't think I would like "Wings" as I couldn't stand Giorgio but once I tried it, I like it...I wore it today as it just seemed to fit my mood...

Wore this back in 1995, I remember being addicted to it and sprayed it liberally during a long, hot summer ! Bought a bottle a couple of years ago to add to my collection, the memories came back with one whiff it made me smile ! A potent, rich white floral - wow so Giorgio, just so 90's but not in a bad way.

I ordered it blind and I was shocked. Absolutely love it. It is not a fruity floral, but rather an oppulent floral oriental. They do not make many perfumes like this these days, people seem to be afraid of them. It is sweet, full, deep, great. Smells very much of jasmine, lilac and amber to me and that is why I love it. Love jasmine and amber and although lots of perfumes these days have jasmine in their names and almost all, like in the past, do have it amongst their notes, practically no perfumes smell of jasmine. It is probably too rich and opulent for these days. Wings reminds me a lot of Poison, but even more of the original Lumíére, which I like much better than Poison. While Poison is a bit cloying and too sweet (although I do like it), none of these too is. Well, I like the original Lumiére much better than Wings, it is even denser, but that one has been out of production for a longtime now. Nevertheless I consider Wings a wonderful replacement. Differently from Poison and Lumiére it does in fact have this musky animalic understone which otherwise also makes it special. Never guessed really. I am very happy with it. A true mood lifter.

Had and used this in the 90's, along with Poison and Eternity. Now when i smell those, i'm wondering "what was i thinking" :D ?. All of them actually still smell good, but i remember being very liberal with spraying them on. Now, if i used any of these, one spritz would be more than enough. More than that, headache and nausea.
Sprayed on some Wings now, and it actually is quite lovely as it settles on the skin. I can't detect any fruits in this, it's a big floral, very well blended. Sillage and longevity are both great, so please people, apply sparingly :)

Something about this reminds me of Sun, Moon, and Stars by Karl Lagerfield. Both are very 90s type perfumes and really have a nostalgic feeling to them for me growing up as a teen of the 90s. I still think this is a very enjoyable and pretty perfume especially during the Springtime if you are not too heavy handed. If over applied this can really give me a migraine. I don't think it is old fashioned as some have stated. It's a classic. I mean, I think classic perfumes are like classic cars, ya know? They never go out of style. Great memories go with this perfume and good times!

The opening is a fresh,fruity,almost aquatic like floral,which turned me off immediately since I cannot stand marine scents,but that quickly faded to one of the best drydowns I have smelled on myself-Kind of like a slightly metallic,musky,honeyed wood,bearing a similarity to Estee Lauder's Sensuous, but not as sweet. Not bad;just nothing unique.

To my mother's dismay, someone gave this to me when I was in Jr High. She is not a purfume person, you see and here was her kid drowning everything in Wings!

I remember flowers and warmth and feeling like a grownup while wearing it. It's not one I'd wear now as my tastes have changed, but I like the smell for its memories.

I love this fragrance. I found a small bottle of the perfume in a consignment shop.

This is a soft, sofisticated & modern floral which smells like dominate white florals on me, which I love. Gardenia??? How can it go wrong??? Love at first sniff.

The base notes keep it from being a too-sweet floral on me & it just softens to a watery white floral. It reminds me of Chanel No 5 because they smell similar.

Love it & worth every penny. 'Just wish it would last longer than 4-6 hours on me.

the best floral fragrance ever,evokes sweet memories, had it a very long time back.Don't know where i can buy this again, hope to see another perfume house coming up with something similar or surpassing .. :)

A bright, sweet, cheerful floral, done in the 80's style. I like it, and wore it in the 90's. one of my top florallly-florals, as I am a sandalwoody/spicy/sweet girl. Very nicely done....need to love lilacs!!
GREAT lasting power and silage.

I bought it as a stocking filler for my 15 year old daughter. And she loves it. It's a fantastic floral, very balanced and classy. just like the perfumes that were made in those days. I can smell it long after she has walked through a room. so a little will go a long way.
I really can't understand today's fashion of sweet perfumes that smell all the same and vanish after a couple of hours. it is just clever marketing but not the art of perfume making.
I will certainly buy another bottle of wings when she finishes with this one. and if she wants to wear something different, well, i don't mind using it myself.

I used to wear this when I was a teenager. It was an innocent scent to me and very long lasting from what I remember. I always got compliments when I wore it; usually from other girls, but a few boys too. Very nicely done frag.

The florals harmonize perfectly. No one note overpowers the others. I don't get a lot of the musk, or woody base. It is a true floral scent. Very heady, warm, luxurious, but not over done. A nice romantic scent.

OH MY!!! This perfume does have wings! it goes everywhere i go! unbelievable lasting power! at first i didn't like it much because i felt that this perfume is too "floral" for me, overpowering... but now i love it! i think i learned to love it, i understand now that with this perfume you have to let some time pass after you spray it before you judge it, it has to dry down and only then you can see how it works with you...only then you can smell the real wings charm!

I have been wearing this fragrance for ten years now. I receive compliments from men and other women alike. I wear it for day and evening. On me, it's not too strong at all. If I had a signature fragrance, I would say that it is Wings. I absolutely love it!

Warning: This is not like today's weak Floral Fruity fragrances. Wings is a very heady Floral and must be applied in small quantities.

Intense and musky. High presence of Gardenia!

Great fragrance but this stuff sent me to the hospital with hives! I'm highly allergic to something in it. But if you can wear it..., it's a very nice perfume.

A very woman-ish every-day-scent. I like it but I'm not sure why I don't love it. I had a bottle and when it was empty I didnt miss it at all. Nice, good staying-power on my skin.
Nice - just nice

It is full of osmathus (think of Narciso Rodriguez for Her)...creamy osmathus floating in the sky, falling into a field of lilac, jasmine....slipping into an amber river...personal and passionate...complex and exciting but not sophisticated...raw and loud but super-feminine
Reminds me of the night...I use it for night sleeping these days...the strong osmathus-amber dry down always shocks me in the morning :)

I bought a bottle of this today because I smelled the tester and fell in love all over again! I forgot this smells sooooo good!!!!!!!

I had received the EDP as a graduation present. Remember thinking that I was in no way mature enough for it. Could once in a while pull it off for an early evening with a long night to follow. Perhaps it was the absolute strength of the elixir. Somehow, it now makes me quite nauseous.

WINGS is a strong and airey floral aroma
But I like it after it ''sits'' a bit
Got it for my teenage niece and it smells heavenly on her
and her boyfriend really likes it too

I feel its very well blended and has a distinct and fragrant ''girly'' smell thats sweet and innocent .

I abhor Gardenia so that is all I smell in this knock you off your socks kind of stuff! I do not like it one bit.

This perfume is my ex-love. This perfume is a strong floral perfume but I would like express "strong" word.Everlasting floral scent for floral-lovers!

Do they still sell this stuff?? OMG! I loved this perfume about 20 years ago...wow. I think Georgio of Bev Hills was quite progressive at that time. My olfactory senses have defiitely matured since then.

sharp floral, just a little bit old-fashion because reminds me of the frags that women wore in my childhood.But thats not bad..i think i will wear it with pleasure.It is very flowery and gives me lil migrane though,but that cant stop me from liking it!
P.S And also it is not floral-fruity,it is 100% floral to my nose;)

Classy!

I wore this my senior year of highschool and not since. I smelled it recently after a 14 year hiatus, and now I think it smells old fashioned. I wouldn't buy this one again, but I remember thinking it smelled great back in the day. It funny how perfumes can take you back to different times in your life.

This is the one I tried since my co-worker used Giorgio all the time. I did like this, but now I wear lighter ones.

I was wearing the heck out of this back in 2000! It is very strong and floral I think the orchid and marigold really stands out in this one! Overall a nice fragrance!

Another middle school favorite of mine...I don't recall considering it a 'floral fruity', however. Very strong floral with a nice peppery musk in the dry-down. I doubt I will ever wear it again, as my tastes have changed! :)

Beautiful gentle airy fragrance
I think this is suitable for all seasons..

I like it a lot, it has a musky spice to it. I like my perfumes a little on the strong side, that's the only way they last long on me.
