Romeo Gigli Romeo Gigli for women

I think I'll have to try this again some other day because today I just get "4711 Cologne" with slightly more longvity. 0_o

Hormones or what?

I agree with Sassy1 that this perfume has a very distinct sugary lemon smell, and it reminds me of lemon sherbet. I too was expecting it to be a lot sleeker and perhaps more Continental smelling so when I first smelled it I wasn't too sure about it. However, it is a nice, fresh, pleasant perfume. The staying power isn't great so it seems to fade quite quickly. Overall though, a nice perfume that's good for wearing on bright, sunny days and it would also be ideal in the workplace because it's so light and fresh that I doubt it could offend anybody!

I always find Romeo Gigli's perfume collections smells strong but not overpowering and of course unique. Reading about the ingredients, it makes me wonder it must smells strong but also refreshing. Floral, green and spicy element I supposed it all blend perfectly.

With all those green spices in the top why am I only getting a slightly lemony lollipop sweet? The verbena must be overshadowing everything else. I am starting to get a little of the orange now, but no florals or wood to be found.
It's definately not what I expected . Based on the ad picture I was looking for something with a little more edge to it. And frankly, with the name Romeo Gigli, something a little more sleek and Mediterrean.
It's just ok...I'll try it again later and see if it comes off the same.

I am also surprised at how many are supposedly in this, its quite a fresh and somewhat wimpler perfume than the notes imply. It starts witha blast of herbal verbena and rosemary, which very quickly softens and I smell more bergamot and bitter orange. It sweetens a tiny bit now and I can smell some florals, with that herbal undertone still there. It stays very close to the skin and it's not very strong so Im really straining my nose to detect it shortly agterwards, Unfortunately by the time the base notes should appear this has softened to a whisper of scent.

What can i say more than the reviewers told it so correct, a great, not a common sent, very special, sour notes with sweet notes.I can't find it here in Holland. I'am so glad i own it now.
If you want a good replacement for givenchy play, this one is a good choice.
Great perfume!!

I agree with tommy_girl - not your regular green floral, definitely does not smell ordinary nor cheap.
I like it a lot - a translucent green, like a water in a waterlily pond. Very calming, not sharp in any way, both fresh and inviting - made me smell my wrist all the time I was wearing it! It sits close to the skin, and it was a very pleasant experience for me - usually green notes are not very good for me.For such a complicated perfume it smells like a noble simplicity.Perfect.

today in the shop is saw a luxury golden & black box for a pretty good price and it was Romeo Gigli.I checked the bottle to see the house behind it and I saw that it's from an Italian company.
the smell was all about lime and green notes at the first sniff.I fell in love immediately.because it wasn't cheap nor frequent green note to my nose.
I don't smell strong floral scents.it's very light,not woodsy neither.
in fact I didn't expect to see so many notes that I see here!to me it's just light,with very sincere green notes.I'm not sure if the long lasting power is very good.but the bottle and box are just a wow!
