Sheer Veil  Vera Wang for women Pictures

This limited 2005 edition brings us the floral bliss of Champagne rose and lavender. The heart is touched by delicate powdery notes of dewy violet that wrap the luscious dream rose like a veil. The base intoxicates with pure and sweet intensive notes of white Stephanotis, gardenia and white lily. It is available as 100ml EDP.

Sheer Veil Fragrance Reviews

I'm probably going to date myself with this review, but here it goes anyway. There is something about this scent that takes me back to girlhood, when I would visit Laura Ashley retail stores with my mother. I was entranced by the beautiful, romantic, and often floral printed dresses. The stores always had a floral scent to the air, maybe a Laura Ashley perfume (?), like an English bouquet of flowers still fresh with dew on the petals.

Sheer Veil reminds me of these visits. The opening is a soft rose tempered by a hint of lavender. I get the violet and lily as well. For a fragrance that is all beautiful flowers, it has a surprising depth to it. I adore that everything is light, not one note stands out more than the rest. What this fragrance achieves is the combined scent of a fresh bouquet of flowers, and that in itself is quite beautiful. This has become of favorite of mine as well as my boyfriend's.

Sheer Veil is a very fresh and pure fragrance. A bouquet of fresh flowers that descends into a beautiful powdery finish. If you love the purity of floral aromas, this one is for you. Perfect for very hot Australian summers and the lasting power is quite good too. I have put a tiny dab on my wrist and it has lasted about 6-7 hours. Firstly, vintage roses and a hint of lavender, then I smell the gardenia, violet and lily. Vintage roses and subtle lavender are the stars here.

Vera Wang Sheer Veil is radiant and feminine. The sophisticated champagne rose is clean, crisp, and green. Soft violet for a light powdery scent with blossoming florals of fresh gardenia and white lily. The perfect wedding day fragrance!

I wore this for my wedding in early September, and while it's a beautiful scent, there is no staying power at all. I had even layered it with the shower gel and lotion that day, and brought a mini bottle to apply some before the reception.
Later in the evening as I was greeting guests, one of the ladies there smelled amazing, and I had to ask her what she was wearing - Coco Mademoiselle. I wished that I had bought that instead!

I absolutely love this fragrance especially the dry down it is fresh and clean smelling, but I feel that someone is always sneezing around me :-( As a high school teacher, I am around many students, and in each class someone starts sneezing on the days I wear this perfume. I love it though, so, I am going to say that it is due to the dusty old building lol

Fresh and pure, very pretty. Notes of lavender and rose aren't overpowering and the lily adds a subtle sweetness. The floral notes mix very nicely on the dry down. But for the most part I prefer gourmands on my skin, so I have a new 3.4 bottle in the pretty purple box in case anyone wants to swap.

I purchased Sheer Veil a while back on Ebay untested because I had heard so many nice reviews on it and with it being a lighter floral perfume was right up my alley. I have to say it does smell very good and is definitely VERY floral, but not in a cloying way. That would be my biggest complaint is that I wish there was some other note to break up the florals...maybe a musk or a fruit. The bottle is very pretty and the nice lavender color of the actual perfume make a nice addition to my collection. I agree that it is a perfect wedding day fragrance and perfect for summer or spring because of the beautiful floral bouquet that exudes from it. Could be worn to the office without offending anyone I think and even nice for a romantic evening.

Sheer Veil is like a wedding veil kissed with the scent of a bride's bouquet. Lily and violet are the most discernable with a soft, romantic heart.

Naturally feminine, charming and lovely. Unpretentiously pure with a graceful ease.

I love this one. I have it in a nice sized body lotion and use it fresh after a shower and it is heavenly. The rose and violets mingle together to pack a "fresh" punch...but the overall affect is clean and elegant and yes, "sheer" in its overall feeling. Smells clean and classy to me...the way I want to smell. PS: I am a violet lover!

Love the heavy weighted bottle, so beautiful with its square base and curved sides. A statement of QUALITY before you even get to it's contents.

And then...

first spray was tart and sparkling could have sworn their was a raspberry note or some other fruit present to tickle my nose with an effervescent sense of joy and optimism... but only floral's listed - strange

as the scent develops Sheer Veil becomes all floral. not airy, girly and pretty but a mature earthy floral warm subtle and close.

This was terrific at work, will not offend colleagues but still lovely enough to receive a compliment.

Whilst I like this scent it will not become a favorite as it lacks uniqueness and that 'x-factor'
-------
as the temperature dropped I pulled on my hoody and was delighted by an exquisite fragrance from a past perfume. I sat with the scent for a while growing ever more fond of it but It was not recognisable.

Not being able to name the scent was infuriating as I simply had to know what perfume I owned that smelt this bloody good.

I sat there eyes closed and re-visted the day I had last worn this hoody.... what perfume had I also worn....and then I remembered, It was the day I tested Sheer Veil!

I just cant wait to experience this scent again because that day, there in my hoody, I got it! I had found this scents 'x-factor' and it took my breath away.

Fresh opening of rain soaked violets begins this quiet
grace purple lavender invigorates the senses; white lily
with a diluted spiciness dries the heart of the perfume
Gardenia must has to be the shyest flower of this scent
it's hard to detect like a elusive secret.

Simplicity is the most beautiful art this modest
scent may not be the first to be noticed in a
crowd but it has it's own beauty an minimalistic
elegance that says less is more.

While many perfumes create visions of loud, overstyled and polished women in sexy dresses this one creates the vision a natural beauty, looking good in T-Shirt and jeans though perfectly breathtaking in an evening gown.

That kind of natural beauty would smell like Sheer Veil, a very natural smelling fragrance lightly overseen but nontheless adorable. Light but lasting it clings to the skin and caresses with airy wafts of the most gorgious lavender accompanied by veils of mellow rose and dewy violet. It is subtle and kind of simple which makes its beauty standing out to me out of all the loud fragrances.

This one works out any day, with a casual outfit when working in the garden or on a special night with evening gown. It appears young to me, though any woman could wear it, aslong she's somehow natural looking you know.

A lot of men like that fragrance, I guess because it's really natural smelling like you've been a lot out of doors in a garden where roses, lavender and gardenia bloom still sparkling with morning dew.

Very lovely grown up-kind of scent. A cool, frosted wedding bouquet that stays close to the skin. It lasts all day (on me) and develops into a soft creamy skin scent, touched by some flowers.

I didn't even realize that there was a scent released between the original and the Sheer Veil. I have both of these and I think I prefer the Sheer Veil just a little more than the original. Both are excellent scents.

I mostly feel the lavender note in this fragrance. I don't like lavender a lot, but this light floral fragrance is really nice and it smells natural.

Smells fabulous but no lasting power and I won't buy it because of that.

This was my Wedding day fragrance and everytime I smell it now it just takes me back....
A long-lasting, grown up floral without the sickly-sweet fruit that some bring in.

This is one of my favorites, the lavender comes out with a hint of rose and its just gorgeous, very long lasting and sophisticated. It's also not heavy but you can tell I'm wearing something but its not overpowering. Love it!!

To me, this is very similar to Bouquet. I like them both, but can't quite decide which I prefer. I kind of wish I hadn't purchased both of them. Too similar, but very nice and sophisticated.

For a price of Vera Wang, I expected something better, something more long lasting, esp since the top notes burst in a very nice/modern way. I could smell rose and lavender. But, it dries down into something floral with lily predominantly stayed on my skin. Thus, I don't think this will be my favorite, especially as I have to spray it at exactly each hour.

What is the difference between original Vera Wang and this one? I was expecting a fresh smell maybe due to blue colour and more lavender notes as described, but I could not detect any difference with the original one. It is just an ordinary floral smell, nothing special.. If you order this online without trying, do not expect something different than the original one.. Oh well, staying power is better than the original though I have to admit.. They say oils were increased in it.. Previous one used to disappaer in 15 minutes on my skin and I am not the only one who thinks that way

I received a sample of this and it's wearable. I would classify it as modern and romantic but reminds me of something I would wear on my wedding day. Perhaps that was the intent, as the name shows.

I love Sheer Veil.. it is a mature fragrance, not girlish like Princess. It has a soft, almost lavendar overtone to it. I love it for daytime office wear but works great for an evening affair as well.
