Divina La Perla for women

Bought this unsniffed, which is rather stupid thing to do. Unfortunately Divina seems to hate me. It turns very sharp and sour on my skin and gives me a headache. Not what I expected, no strawberries, no rose, just sour unpleasant chemical odour.

Edit: Tried it again and the sour note is gone. Maybe Divina clashed with some other perfume or body cream I was wearing when I tried it for the first time? Now I really like it. Divina is a soft, sweet fruity floral, very feminine and pretty.

God, I really love this perfume. It's great and quite unique without being too much of a special snowflake.

When first sprayed on my wrist I can smell a really fruity strawberry-mandarin orange-champagne scent. It calms down quickly, and after only about 10-15 minutes you get to the heart of the perfume which sticks with you till the end.

Once the top notes have faded what I can smell is mostly a warm vanilla, rose, orange flower, musk and amber. I can smell some woodsy notes in the background, but they aren't very prominent.

The note which interests me the most in this perfume is the rose. I've always found real roses to smell like 80s dish soaps. However, this rose scent tastes sweet only at the tip of your tongue. Not at the back of your tongue like the nauseating rose smell I'm familiar with.

Like others have said, the lasting power isn't very good. You don't need a lot of this perfume for people to smell it on you, but you need to refresh it quite often. The smell is completely gone on my wrist after only 6 hours. Perfume usually sticks to my skin in such a way that I can smell it vaguely even after 24+ hours. So I'm just going to spray a little of this on every 4 hours or so if I'm going out. It's quite expensive, but I like the scent enough to buy it despite of the lasting power being poor.

I like the smell of this fragrance...it seems sort of carefree to me. It has a simple sweetness to it, not too sweet and it doesn't stand out but it's nice. Unfortunately, it doesn't last long at all. Based on the smell, I would love to have a bottle. I just don't thinK I will because I am not impressed with the staying power.

i liked this scent and bought it... however it is much too light to be worth the price it was... it doesn't last long at all... not worth the money for its lasting power. I honestly keep respraying all day every hour.

original. I keep sniffing my arm. I don't have anything like this.

Oh Divina!
Is truly divine, a sort of sweet divine.. finally i can smell a true strawberry note. Very very femenine, i love it. Its fresh, its lovely, sophisticated without being complicated, a new favorite, i have a travel size mini and i used it for my vacations, and this is the kind of scents i like to be alone and surrounded by it, therefore its my next buy.

A lovely lady like perfume , the notes can easely be taken for a girly girly perfume , But this is actualy pretty Gown up and sort off powdery. I dont know what makes it that way but i swear , it is powdery. maybe the rosse makes it that way. the strawberrys and champagn i can detect ,Rose for shure some tiny whiff off flowers and citrus .
this to me became a little unberable whit the powdery Strawberry rose thing.. Not to sweet , but there is somthing weard to me .
Delicios yes for shure , but just dont for me .

I tried it at the La Perla corner at La Rinascente, Milano. It is really wonderful! Perhaps the first Italian fragrance that I truly loved! The bottle... *thumbs down*, but the rest worths purchasing it.

I like it very much,from the beginning until the time it fades away.it's fruity,but doesn't smell childish or cheap.it's a very classy day perfume.though the first notes are almost modern,after an hour of spraying it smells very classic,pure rose.
I may get it as my next perfume.it's the best Perla perfume I've tried so far.

Not sensational or very original, yet somehow I really enjoy wearing it. Blind buy based on reviews here, description and the notes. The fresh top notes soon disappear, it's true, and leave behind a warm, modern, not overpowering mild floral/woody/musky trail. It doesn't seem very strong or have a lot of lasting power, yet leaves a delicious trail of some elusive aroma in any room I've fairly recently visited.

Overall, I feel this is a nice, sophisticated, very wearable fragrance suitable for almost any place or occasion.

A floral fruity between the lines of d&g imperatrice. Feminine an sweet, though the staying power is so so.. A pity really. Otherwise i could have been very enthousiastic!

Tried Divina today. Very intrigued by it. To me the woman who wears it best is a true Bombshell. Not just a sexy kitten, but a sensual, voluptuous woman, softly seductive, with a certain warmth and depth...to me Divina is a Brigitte Bardot.

Update: bought it today... couldn't resist--it's just too delicious. :)

have bought this frag today. the begining is fresh and light, but it doesn't last long. Then comes flowers, very sweet, warm and feminine. At the end i feel musk and wood...no vanille at all. The staying power is rather good. I can't say that it's something incredible, but the frag is worth paying attantion! I like it!

I have to add that it doesn't last long. After 2 hours it's already completely gone.

PS: After re-testing it and covering me really in it, I guess the lasting power for such a light scent is ok. But I also figured it's not my kind of scent. The drydown is nicely sweet and if you e.g. like hypnotic poison, this could be for you.

This one isn't uninteresting. It is more subtle and tender but not completely vanishing. The start was like jellybeans to me and I wasn't convinced too much. Now after 1 hour the white flowers come out with a hint of powder. It's an elegant scent for any occasion, even business and going out. I'm not so sure if I would buy it. I guess I'll have to test it more often.

Disappointing. One is bashed with some ads at bus stops, the bottle and box are alluring, the name... oh, well, ambitious to say the least! Then I smelled the perfume from tester and I felt meh!
What is this? A flat concoction of strawberry, ultra-sweet, fruity frizzy candy. On paper it smells just nice, on my skin it smells sweetish and flat pink candy. La Perla could do better. The lasting power is good.

this perfume smells really nice, but only with the first spritz ! it reminds me a lot of chweing gum from the 90s, i smell strawberries and this bubbly champagne scent, but as for me this is probably too sweet and artificial ;)
tt is good that there is a woody note, because the smell would cause headaches without it, probably ;)
as i said, a nice scent but only for 2-3 hours, than it's boring and smells very cheap

Floral fruity champagne, joyful strawberry juice, delicate jasmine and rose bouquet, all these elements give to Divina an elegant, cheerful aura, for a sophisticate yet sparkling personality.

I have this and i am really loving it!!! It is truly a scent of strawberries and champagne!!! Very joyful and not over the top sweet. Reminds me of a strawberry ice-cream. Really good fragrance with a bit dissapointing staying power and low sillage! Highly recommended for summer. But you have to spray it a lot to feel it.
