Roberto Cavalli Roberto Cavalli for women

It is quite lovely. Creamy and woody. I just ordered a bottle after remembering that I loved this perfume in my teens and I was feeling nostalgic. Unfortunately, the burst of Rosemary and Cedar in the beginning are a bit too sharp for my nose and I find myself blowing and rubbing my wrists to try to accelerate the dry down, which is my favorite part. While this is a wonderful scent, I can live without it and am willing to swap it any day.

What a beauty!

I have a vegan (non animal musk) imitation of this perfume. That musk photo is so sad up there.

This is very green. I feel it is more of the cyphre variety. I love it! It is grassy smelling,fresh green green grass. I think this is from the patchouli and the rosemary combining in harmony. I feel like I can smell that smell of freshly mowed lawn grass. It is very unique,this little gem.

I do smell tinges of sweet,yet spicy apples,(soft spice)and slight floral notes.

I am blending this today with a nutty,smoky vanilla oil that I have,and they blend beautifully.

Wore this 5-6 years ago in my teens and still LOVE IT! †his has so many positive memories for me.

Very sweet and very similar to Oro.

Thank you very much for your detailled review Mizz!

@Action: no they don t have something in common actually. they smell all different. but i m wearing actually a combination of versace woman and this one, Cavalli woman... and it smells good ;D

well, i'm gonna review this one...
i like this perfume very mutch for spring and summer, while versace woman is very likeable too, but way tooo sickening sweet and powdery, this one isn't powdery at all, so the mix is a quite good one.

Cavalli woman is fruity-flowery, fresh, crisp, bittersweet, soft and tender and it's juicy, not sickening or sticky.

it starts with a burst of freshness and juicyiness very promising, the heart evokes with a really nice freesia and a very pink orchid, sooo sweet but natural smell (bittersweet) with honeynotes and the rosemary (at least i guess it is this one) gives it a quite unusual an intriguing untertone which one puzzles me everytime when i wear it. drydown is soft woody-earthy but the heady flower mix and the juicyness of the top are shining through from top to bottom. the amber and patchouli is not really detectable for my nose in this.

staying power is very good, sillage fantastic.

This perfume had a very bad chemical reaction with my skin.

It felt a little heavy, very spicy and intoxicating. The smell was so strong and it was like it was stinging my nose. It felt better after a very long time but still stingy.

A friend of mine tried it and she really liked it. It smelled so good on her skin, it was not even close to nasty anymore.
So she is now the proud owner of this fragrance.

The bottle is thin and nice with snake leather print but I did not like one bit the plastic snake, it looked so fake. Plus my sister while trying to squeeze the bottle back in it's box broke the snake's head. :|

To end in a good note this is a lasting fragrance and for those who like it is a positive sign! :)

For ladies knowing this one, is it in the same line as Versace Women and Lapidus Women? They really resemble in concept and perfume category so it seems..

Hi.

ROBERTO CAVALI is a True ROMANTIC Perfume.A Delicate,Light Floral scent that whispers tenderly on the Skin. It has Such a Clean and Soft Scent That Everybody can wear it. In other Words Modern,Young,Exotic,Enjoyable,Sweet, Soothing,Fragrant and Italian Style.

Fresh Introductory Notes of Red Apple,Bergamot and Magnolia are Subtle and blended with notes of Freesia, Rosemary and Wild Orhicd. This Lovely EDP is Light,Calm and Elegant with Soft Woods and Amber in the base for a Touch of Warm Emotion.

It is more of a Everyday Scent. One of those Perfumes that You can wear Either Day or Night. In my opinion It is Great for a Romantic Evening in Springtime. It makes You Feel Pampered and Beautiful. I Recommend this one to a Debonair Character and Everybody that is Looking for a lightly floral fragrance with a hint of fruityness. It is Ideal for Wedding Too.

Sillage?Decent.

Longevity?About 5 Hours on my skin.

7/10

i used half of my 75mls bottle on winter 2008... then came summer and i looked for new scents...and my mom now uses it on winter days... i just forget about this...but every time my mom uses it, she passes by me and i feel delighted...

The sweetness is offset a bit by the rosemary, which is very faint to me. But the dry down is very sweet, although not cloyingly sweet. I'd say it's about as sweet as a fragrance could get without becoming sickening. It's a nice scent, but not one I could wear everyday. Stays fairly close to the skin, only light sillage so it would be ok for the office. It's ok but I am still looking for my perfect summer scent.

Funny I get strong burst of rosemary and some woods...no fruits at all to me!! I find it weird, will see how the drydown goes,but so far it doesnt smell great to me!! it smells a bit medicinal to me!!

This reminds me of those ufo shaped round two toned candies you used to be able to buy on a stick like a tootsie pop, "Smarties double lollies suckers", do you remember those? That's what I think of when I put this on. Dry down is a bit different but basically the same, just softer, two toned candy from the past.
I enjoy the trip down memory lane and it makes me crave one of those darn suckers, I'm just not sure I want to wear it. Especially since it makes me want to eat sugar. Sigh.
BTW the bottle sort of matches that ufo candy image too doesn't it?

For me its smells like a nice chokolate, i was so desapointed when I found that there is't nothing like choko... I love this fragrant,is so sweat but in the best way, pleasant for wearing,elegant.

Very soft smell.
Scent doesn't last long,feel like I need to re apply after a few hours.

yes, i agree it´s not very long lasting, 4 or 5 hours on me...so i spritz it on my clothes :)

This one is my very good friend favorite. Very plesant, sweet and ...innocent. Don't stay long, but still its good to wear in public - light and not giving headache.

I had and can;t say I got lots of complimenst of it.. is So SO..

this is the perfect one, the one i´ve looking for for years and then i found!! floral, elegant, for refined woman.not for teenagers. magnolia patchouli and honeysuckle, fresher than oro but still full of style...i´m in love with it...

Exotic! It smells like a fruitier, lighter and summeresque version of Oro. This is definitely a different kind of fruity floral. I thought that the light pink color of the bottle would determine it as a generic fragrance, but it isn't. Very unique, nice. But I wouldn't wear it myself, Oro is more my tastes since it is heavier. I can smell the magnolia the most and then some honeysuckle with some patchouli on the dry down. I would recommend giving it a try if you want a new perfume for the summer that will make you stand out from everyone else :)
