Trussardi Skin Trussardi for women

Trussardi skin is a fruity green scent on the base of cedar and patchouli; feminine and modern. It smells like your new expensive purchase from some high-fashion boutique. If you like soft cedar scents, you might like Skin as well, but you probably also need to like patchouli and chypre fragrances in order to feel comfortable wearing Skin ;)

The woody notes [Brazilian rosewood, cedar] blend amazingly well with the pink pepper and violet leaves...This concoction is not too sweet or cloying in the least...It is close to the skin, beautiful, and very feminine... I initially bought a small mini of this fragrance, and immediately fell in love with its softness...I really hate to rely on the opinions of others (as I did with all here before I purchased it) but I took a leap and bought it...I've not regretted it...In fact, I bought TWO big bottles online! love, LoVe, LOVE this fragrance!

Trussardi Skin is a very clean and sensual scent. It starts very light just like its name. I felt it was really going to be a skin scent but you need to wait for a surprise.

Initially, it's a mix of leafy green notes but after few minutes apple and a little hint of citrus and a little melony notes treat the olfactory senses I also get a little powdery patchouli. Upon dry down it has patchouli and floral notes which smell clean and fresh. It stayed almost 8+ hours on me and it is a skin scent that others will also notice on you, just as my sister noticed when I applied it on me and she instantly said I smelled so good.

I had two bottles of it in my life. At first I loved it, but with time... I have enough. These violet leaves seem to smell bad on my skin, I didn't like it. When the perfume opens up, it's pretty. But with time it wears off in an irritating, to me, way.

I don't like Skin but I appreciate it. It's like a chameleon, one time it smells like a green bubblegum and I love it, another day it smells like a very biting and tiring green and I can't stand it. All in all the fragrance is unique, interesting but I don't feel comfortable wearing it because it's too much of biting green. I feel as if I became a plant...

The bottle is pretty and looks even better in real life than in photos.

All time fave! Devastated that it's so hard to get! Every time I wear it, people stop and ask me what it is! Never cloying, never spiky, just cool, juicy and intimate!

~~~ update ~~~
My 2.5 ounce bottle of Skin just arrived :)
Got it on eBay, sold as a "tester - not for sale", LOL. It comes in a cardboardy box (with all the info still printed on it though) and no cap (I can live without it) but, other than that, it's a VERY reasonably priced, full size, authentic and fully functional bottle of juice.

So happy...

After reading all the positive reviews of Trussardi Skin, I bought two test-size vials. At first, I did not like it at all; it smelled too masculine for me (but I would not mind it on a man). Funny thing though, every time I gave the vial a sniff, with the cap still firmly on, it was like the scent got stuck in my olfactory passage... I could smell it for at least an hour as the scent seemed to somehow embed itself in the inside of my nose.

A couple of days of this vial-sniffing, and I finally gave Skin a go on my wrist... and, boy, am I glad I took a chance with it! It was lovely from the second of application to the moment it waned, and we are taking many hours!

A pleasant surprise, a scent that is compelling and complex, with all the notes very well put together (I honestly cannot even smell them separately) and singing in unison.
I'd say this is a grown-up scent, stunningly beautiful and elegant on a mature woman. No sugary, flowery smell here. I'd venture a guess this fragrance will not appeal to the (much) younger crowd.
It does seem to need a warmer weather to fully develop.

I wore it in a 20+ degree Celsius weather, and it was fantastic - I could not stop smelling it, and it lasted pretty much all day. But, when I wore it in a 15 degree Celsius, I could barely smell it at all, although I kept reapplying... So, whomever mentioned Skin needs hot weather to be fully appreciated, was totally right.

My horoscope says there is a big bottle of this juice in my immediate future :)

This is a typical perfume that I learned to love AFTER parting with it!! I gifted it to a WONDERFUL fragrantican, but now I need to get me some of my own again!! I always thought it was wonderful, but now I know it was actually AMAZING!!

Purchased a big tester bottle on Ebay because the price was reasonable. Never tried, never tested and since purchasing and smelling this is one of the best blind buys I have ever made. Subtle, peppery- flowery sophistication in a bottle. I don't think I have anything like it in my collection and that's good. Unisex? Maybe. After a few minutes of spraying I smell the sweetness emerges (could that be the apple). I never do get to the lemon but the woody, spicy dry down takes no time to show up and then I believe I do get the lemon, just a hint. This chypre really knows how to rock without being overbearing.

English language is not my native language, so I need to find the right word which could exactly describe this perfume:
Quality !
This is my mother’s scent. And it says everything, because she loves and prefers the best quality (clothiers, shoes, cosmetic).
It is sensual, soft and also modern creation. I agree that it is high-quality fragrance. Its not too strong or loud do not have special character, for me its real quality and very elegance.
Lily and rose are not too strong (like usually this duet is strong and the star of the notes) and citrus are not too spicy, it seems that it’s everything in his place.
Also green bottle is very elegant.

p.s: Sometimes then I need moms hug, I go to shop and testing Trusardi Skin…

This is definitely a summer scent - or made to wear during summer. It needs warmth to develop and turn into this amazing refreshing yet subtle scent. I have to admit that the top notes are challenging for me and almost made me miss this perfume. but luckily I held on until the middle, which is despite the range of flowers not too strong. The base and middle are developing at the same time, and I think the SKINsensation which makes this fragrance like your own, is what really makes this a gem. It just melds with your own scent and makes it just more interesting, but nobody will tell you: your perfume is great, but only you smell good. nothing loud, but never boring!

i think this is an unisex perfume, would love to smell this on a guy..smell fresh and lovable :)
i don't really feel like using a perfume after spraying this, i can't smell anything, unless i smell my wrist in purpose..but my friends say they can smell it..so yes, this perfume like your skin that you doesn't aware off, but people certainly aware of it..

Warm, bright, citrus with spiced pear soon gives way to coriander, then discreet florals. Good longevity and medium sillage. Made with good quality ingredients adhered to a nice and persistent base of pencil shavings. This is the younger sister of escada Country weekend.

I bought a small mini of this fragrance, and immediately fell in love with its softness...I really hate to rely on the opinions of others (as I did with you all before I purchased the mini size) but I took a leap and bought it...I've not regretted it...In fact, I bought a big bottle online! LOVE this fragrance!

Another winner by Trussardi, TRUSSARDI SKIN is a sumptuous, sensuous, sensual and compelling creation which opens as a slightly sweet modern chypre and dries down as a lovely skin scent. Gorgeous from start to finish, this edp has good longevity and medium-low sillage.

I am truly impressed by the unsung beauties produced by the house of TRUSSARDI: JEANS, INSIDE, and now SKIN are all on my wish list! These are very high-quality fragrances--certainly every bit as good as some niche offerings--at bargain basement prices, and it's just fine with me that nearly no one knows, thanks to the inexplicable fact that companies such as Trussardi (Balmain, too) spend so little on marketing their perfume wares.

Trussardi fragrances are well kept secrets for the discerning noses of perfumistas. There's no hype or image to cut through: these compositions speak for themselves. Highly recommended!

NathalieZ, I still think it could be REALLY your thing as a sister to the Bianco!! I do not have it anymore, since somebody else really wanted it, but THANKGOD it can still be bought!!
Love!

Yes, at first it is fruity and with a little shade of rye bread. Then it becomes more rich and interesting. I've bought it without tasting, thinking it must be a leather scent. It isn't but I'm not disappointed "skin" here means the perfume will be your second skin. People make compliments when you wear it ))))
An I think it's a universal scent, but it will be better for spring or autumn.

I love this perfume..I discovered it when I was in Argentina. I never wore perfume until I found this one. Women and men always comment on how good it smells on me. I started wearing this perfume when I was 26 so I don't necessarily think it suits an older skin. It's a great daytime scent. Fresh, sexy and uplifting.

I take back what I said about the first impression being unpleasant; since I purchased it I've used often and the opening really grew on me; I find it very interesting and I love the hint of pepper

Absolutely love what it does to my skin; cannot stop smelling it; I very rarely find a perfume that I love but this one did it for me; the first impression was really unpleasant but the longer it stayed on the better it got; it develops really nice warm and sweet but not too sweet on my skin

Nice, fresh and clean. I'd categorize as a citrusy fragrance. Would be great for hot summer days. I also agree with what other members said about the fact that it could be a unisex frag.

This one definately starts out with sharp fresh fruits. I only get a trace of flowers in the middle but the woods come on strong very quickly. Funny thing is I keep getting whiffs of cedar but directly on my skin it is more floral. Good for casual warm weather wear or office maybe. I like it alot.

I like this scent a lot. Very light and lovely and at first it reminded me a lot of "Loving Bouquet" by Escada (One of their summer fragrances), but with quite so many floral notes. As "Loving Bouquet" is a limited edition, I intend to use this one as a substitute, when the other one's used up.

A colleague introduced this to me years ago, I bought it unsniffed, I think it's too unisex and I really not interested in it. I never wear it and I gave it to my mom. I also didn't smell it on her...maybe my mom and I are ladies of floral/floral fruity scents only.

very fresh and clean! :)

i like it for every day :)

Skin is an unusual perfume,not typically femminine,not a romantic one,not the confident estee-kind of chypre,but an incredibly sensual potion on the right woman.Warm skin and a moist climate help it flourish.Unsuitable for dry wintertime(hides all its bodylanguage)and for women with cold hands/low skin temperature.For a clever and eccentric female.Excellent coordination of the notes,no ingredient sticking out,all in constant motion and harmony.Congratulations to the nose.

i had it a few years ago. I think it's more unisex, fresh scent. not very special

I bought it out of curiosity - had never tried it or heard of it before!

That was a BUY #1
Loved it at first sniff

Lasts as long as u can hope for :-)

I find it ageless - both young and feminine, playful and a bit conservative...
Definitely a winner!

I wore this quite a bit. The fist bottle I purchased-I loved the fragrance. It had a beautiful dry down-very warm. The second bottle I purchased about two years later and the only scent I got was hamster cage! I guess I just can't handle that cedar scent anymore:)

I bought this because i smelt it on someone from where i used to work.
It smelled amazing on the lady in question, unfortuntley it smelt terrible on me.
P.S She was alot older than me though.lol

At first it smells very fruity, like a Jolly Rancher candy -- berries, watermelon, apples. But the dry down is subtle, clean, modern, and very refreshing. Perfect for summer.
