Bright Crystal (for women)

sky76sky

Bright Crystal is the perfect wedding fragrance - it is definitely 'pink' & cute but in a delicate, innocent way....Barbie may like the bottle but she can pick up her sequinned heels & walk out that door!

Don't get me wrong, this really is sweet, but it isn't a sugar-coated nonsense of a fragrance...everything has been created with delicacy rather than with the punchy fruity-floral fist of the teen-preen frags around these days.

The start is crisp & sparkling - for an instant it has a high sweet note that smells like frosted citrus & then it begins to warm. I don't get the dry fruity pomegranite note as such but in combination with the yuzu it conjures up a refreshing green tea scent. This part is delightful - refreshing, clear, light, sheer.

The heart of the fragrance sees the lush mouthwatering lotus take back seat whilst the magnolia & peony dance on the skin. The green tea note remains but is now as soft & graceful as the voile of a wedding veil.

To my delight a light amber-musk base gives the scent a deeper, grounded sensual warmth & creaminess. On me the lasting power is good - it will never have the tenacity of Boudoir or Strip.....but then those are very different women! This beautiful lady is exactly that, a lady, & she will shine at the party but won't out-stay her welcome.

I was suprised how much I enjoyed this fragrance as fruity-florals usually send shudders down my spine. Bright Crystal feels like it isn't targeted at teens or barbie queens, but at girly-women young & old & who want a refined floral with a playful fruity twist.

I am now looking forward to owning both Versace Crystals.

beautiful fragrance. lovely bottle. incredibly bad lasting power. =[
I think i've been to the perfume store 4 or 5 times just to 're-smell' this scent n hoping i would be lucky this time that it lasted longer, but no. It dissapears the moment i put the bottle down to smell it again! what a pity..
one of the perfume i despreratly want to own but just don't know if its worth the money because of its lasting power =[

I think Bright Crystal is the only Versace I could wear.
The bottle is beautiful with a large crystal shaped cap and a pink perfume inside.
This scent begins with very fresh top-notes...then dries down to a warming powdery amber/woodsy base that wears close to the skin.It smells so clean, refreshing, light, sweet, and mellow.I think the rose is dominant .It has that same fresh warm scent that you would get after having a bubble bath. Soapy yes, but also a comforting scent that I like a lot.
The only disappointment i think is the staying power.If you want to wear this fragrance, you will need to reapply often.

to yzqrvpx : thanks a lot for the advice
yeah you are right i should give a try and maybe i will love it
again thanks ;-)

yzqrvpx

To Yayank: please give this sweet fragrance a try. Find someone who will give you a tester and sample it for a week. For me it lasts up to 6-7 hours. I love it for using as a special occasions fragrance in the summertime. It is a lovely wedding perfume and has such a sparkling essence in its top notes. The dry down is almost a musky oriental and I find it perfect for those moments you want to memorize and capture in time.

yayank

i was thinking this will be my next purchase but after i read the reviews about it isn't long lasting
i have to think twice to bought it

anyway the bottle is very sexy and elegant :-)

christina_dior

Bright Crystal is very nice fragrance, but it´s lasting power is terrible! It stays on my skin about 1/2 hours.

dobi

I don`t like BC and I regret i bought it.For me, in the beginning is too synthetic, no staying power, too light and nothing special. It`s awful.

tommy_girl

I had smelled only once bright crystal and I hadn't found it something challenging and I used to think that I only like crystal noir and bright crystal is something flat which makes no sense to me.
what a mistake!today I smelled it again and it's great!I don't get any of the notes listed in the site except magnolia.in fact all I get is a very mild,soft and romantic floral scent that I can best describe it in the smelling of Gardenia(though I see there isn't any gardenia in the notes)
the woman who's wearing it should be very delicate and nice.I can't ever imagine a naughty female wearing it.
I love pomegranate scent and though I can't feel it in this fragrance,the whole combination is very good.
I can't say between crystal noir and bright crystal which one I love more,because they are very different,just like the color of the bottle.probably I'll but crystal noir sooner since it's more unique between my fragrances,but the idea of having both of this is very appealing too.

christina~xoxo

definitely a very light fragrance..
pretty, fresh and clean is what comes to mind..
i like it but not in love with it, guess thats why i still havent bought it..i want something with more of a "presence" and this doesnt have that..

gucci

this fragrance is hot very sexy and floral and mature it kind of reminds me of Armani code diamonds but i think it's very worth it buying it for alot of money

When I first smelt this, I immediately thought of Baby Doll by YSL. They are both rather strong fruity scents that are youthful and vibrant.

The bottle is adorable and very feminine. Versace always manages to make unique and creative bottles for their perfumes.

The scent itself, although pleasant and uplifting, is a little fruitier than what I'm usually used to. It's an interesting fruity floral, I'll give it that, but there was something rather sour and bitter when I smelt this. If anything, it smelt like hair just after it had been washed with citrusy shampoos. For some people they will enjoy this fragrance because of its clean and crisp scent.

As in regards to what I like, Bright Crystal is not my cup of tea, however this shouldn't persuade anyone not to try this fragrance. In my opinion, this is either a love it or hate it type of perfume.

..Bright Crystal..

A radiating glow is Emitted only by wearers of Bright Crystal.

A burst of Pomegranate would first reach your nose, sharp, yet enjoyable, really opens your eyes in the morning.

Then the Floral notes frolic with your sense of smell. Magnolia is the most evident note. Harmonized with Lotus it really paints a floral picture.

Once it melts with the skin, it creates a musky ambery base, and you can't help but ask, "more please? Just one more spray?"

The scent really is a prelude, you kind of expect a little more from it.
That being said, it is beautiful the way it is, but I wish it would have just a little more oomph.

Something you could wear to a movie-date, as it is quite sheer, it fades fairly quickly and you really need to be in close proximity to smell it..

However, when he does, I guarantee his heart will beat a little faster and he won't be able to control himself, he definately will find himself nuzzling your neck for reasons unknown...

Lovely fragrance at first for me, but after a while it dries down to a synthetic smell, I love it at first but after 15 minutes or so it smells like fake florals and fruit. Would be such a nice perfume on someone else, I would've bought it if the synthetic quality wouldn't have come out on me.

sharyssa

Too common smelling and not bottle worthy in my opinion.It is too soft.

Elitsa

This perfume has such a common smell- it reminds to so many other fragrances. It is not bad but for me it is unfinished, there is something missing, it can't grab me at all and it isn't long lasting.

index

For me, it´s not like Addict 2 at all, that one is lighter and not so sweet. Citry in the beginning but the drydown is so delightful, very tender and soft-yes clean and not too sweet at all. The name Bright Crystal fits it exactly! Perfect for spring and summer on romantic, feminine women.
Edit: I don´t know why, but every time I smell it, I have a blond, cultivated woman, that likes to make her up, on mind(I don´t mean this mannequin from the spot, that looks a bit tacky for my taste:-)

Anna_C

I love this fragance so much! It's light and fresh and floral. It makes u feel neat and Crisp and a little flirty. The only sad part is that it doesnt last very long on my skin. Still worth the money tho. The mini bottle is cute but the big 3.4 bottle seems awefully clumsy to me with that big heavy crystal on top.

mmizy

I agree that this smells exactly like Dior Addict 2

Trvevil

It reminds me of Bulgari Green Jade, but has one unpleasant note in it. I think it's yuzu that annoys me. I like this fresh crispy scent, but it's not my thing. It's too light for me and this annoying note present. It's like rotten mandarine smell, not only on me but on others too, even on a paper strip, ick. There's too much yuzu in it, I prefer yuzu in Burberry Brit Sheer- there's the right dose in it. Definitely nothing very special and base is so average, I won't be buying it.
Ok, I actually bought this one for my mum and removed Green jade to replace it with Trussardi Inside :D or else there will be too much perfumes I've 'got to get' crazy!

elli

Otherwise very lovely, but the citrus in here comes out somehow unpleasantly to me and makes me dislike it in the end.

Strange woman

It's fresh, sweet a little, but not long-lasting. Good for summer as it is very refreshing.

minousdepoes

Een heerlijke, frisse geur.Zoet, maar niet te zoet, delicaat en bij mij de hele dag te ruiken, zelfs in mijn kleren.

A very good fragrance, for me fresh and a little sweet, not too sweet. Realy a delecate smell.For me,it last a day long.

Russian

I have no negative things to say about this fragrance,though,i consider it to be,like it was sad before - "ordinary".It is very nice,clean,fresh,elegant and romantic,also long-lasting.It's perfect for spring and summer,because the smell is very light.The woman who wears it will feel herself sexy and desirable.
But for the ones who search "stronger" scents,like I do,it's just an usual nice fragrance.

chelle

strong in the beginning, then it softens to a fresh floral

klee0206

I find that this is an excellent perfume because it is fresh, and though classed as a fruity fragrance, is not overly sweet and fruity. Somehow, this combination smells light, delicate and sparkly. It conveys a youthful vitality, with enough sophistication to be considered sexy too.

harajukulovers

love this crystal scent cos smelt it again today and still love it

Taliera

This goes on my list of perfumes I would die to have, but don't suit my skin chemistry. Another I would put on this list would be Versace by Versace. And Red Jeans didn't work on me either... Maybe there's something about Versace perfumes that doesn't sit with my skin chemistry?

Bright Crystal is just my kind of perfume. Strong but bright. Light. Luminous...

LaLoLa

This one is oddly similar to Dior Addict 2 on my skin.

harajukulovers

My sister has a bottle and it actually smells like youve come out of the bath and feel fresh but after 5 hours it goes compleatly

PR

generic and bland, completely uninteresting.

kim white

I love this perfume ,I just wish it would last longer.

rheea oana

I'm starting to get fed up with all this fruity trend...But this is rather distancing itself from the fruity genre.. nice feathery simplistic unclouded scent!!
What I love is the fact that the fruits are somehow disguised in the magnolia-peony wich is a very suitable combination...highly non-remarcable dry down...very common to other fruity...ethereal too...a fading away scent...but still there's a sheer glass miror quality that helps the componets to reflect themselves onto each other that draws the fragrance from anonymity!!

sjanira

I was a little disappointed because it doesn't last long on me. It's a sheer, light and delicate fragrance which makes me curious of Crystal Noir. That one looks interesting and maybe it's lasting power is better than this one. Still, I love bright crystal and the name fits really well. Like a gem or beautiful piece of jewelry it's one of the prettiest bottles I have and not cheap looking at all. The scent is so soft and feminine and discreet, really good for an anytime fragrance.

pimentosugars

Such a pretty bottle and one of my favourite day fragrances...Bright Crystal really does suit its name, light, gem-like, delicate and faceted. This one proves that a radiant floral doesn't have to simper. The only flaw? Unlike its dark cousin, Bright Crystal doesn't hold for nearly long enough. Worth it anyway!

elaida_00

i got a sample from my friend when she bought adict2, i can say they are similar these two perfumes but i must say i prefer his one, it dries down on my skin sweeter, i guess is just chemistry..i`m not a profesional, but i love it:)

perfumejunkie

i think the citrus notes make this smell a lot like guess guess...love it

LadyJedi

Sheer, crisp, fruity and rosy but too 'clean' for my taste. A delicate aroma for hot days.

scarlett5stam

devoillage a delicate sensuality in a bottle magnifique. This fragrance represents for me the warmth and passion fruit.
then discovered a sweet floral scent and very very elegant. Feeling shiny nd sheer.
Versace was a kinda woman feeling tenderness, sensuality and sweetness, he did not make a mistake...

mizzgossip

I think this perfume smells a lot like Dior Addict 2! Not exactly the same, but a lot. I prefer Addict 2.

Helene

Like it! Definetely distinguished perfume, sweet and tasty!) it doesn't irritate me.

Malegria

Not my cup of tea. Too sour, fades away fast to a pretty ordinary soapy base. If I would smell it again on somebody, I wouldn`t recognize it and would not think twice of it. A disappointment.

iam2sexy4uris

Smells great at the beginning, but fades and becomes smelling very cheap. I would say that if I wanted a cheap wallmart perfume, I would get one. But If I am paying good deal of money for a versace brand I expects something less ordinary.

coco76

i finally obtained a sample of this perfume, and i am happy to say that it is a mere shadow of Les Nereides Musc de Java...its not so much comparing apples to oranges as comparing raspberry flavouring to actual raspberries. its nice enough, bears a sweetness that is pretty but not 'real' enough...for my money les nereides is the way to go...you are transported to a wooded glen in the middle of summer surrounded by tart berries and aromas from nearby fields of wild grass, whereas bright crystal is a POSTCARD of such a place. nice enough, completely forettable.

bugsy_b

One of my favorite perfumes.
Last all day long, soft and sexy scent, the only weakness is that the bottle.
The bottle looks cheap...

guest_DiJO

I AM BUYING THIS PERFUME SOON. I've been looking for the best perfume of my taste, and the winners were- Bright Crystal, j'adore and chloe.
Bright Crystal is fresh, clean and nice it is really bright. NICE NICE.

Taliera

I was all ready to buy this perfume when I tried it on my skin - and it smelt like sh*t! The freshness and unusually high top-notes just did not blend well with my skin's smell, so much as I loved the perfume on the testing strips, I just had to let it be.

Candra

I love this fragrance. It smells so fresh, when i used this perfume it was like this perfume gave me energy. Staying power is great. The bath gel is great too. I always got a lot of compliments when i used this perfume. I will definitely buy this perfume again.

s4101368

When you first spray it on, you get a very fresh, clean, floral-aquatic scent. It becomes sweeter after a while (smells somewhat like a heady rose scent) and stays so for quite a while.

julianne35

so so nice!very modern..better in summer than winter..

coco76

I finally took a sniff of this when i was in the drugstore today...it smells exactly like musc de java by les nereides, what the heck is up with that? i really hope my nose was behaving schizo, because i paid a damn sight more for the nereides. i will go back and spray it on next time.

Moszatka

It's a clean and fresh floral fragrance. Elegant, but light perfume.

ydee

Very nice, sweet and fresh, not to sweet at start. Smell the magnolia and lotus the most in middle.
It stays long at my skin, more then 6 hours, the end is soft smelling.

Migotka

Nice fragrance, very subtle and delicate.
Unfortunately, does not last long at all!

guest_Farha

very nice but no staying power but then what can u expect in EDT

guest_ljubica

A girlie sort of scent - subtle, pretty, indistinct fruity floral, its sparkling notes reflected in the equally sparkling Barbie Plastic Glamour style bottle.

Passionflower

It's kinda nice, but it's got no staying power whatsoever! Enough reason for me not to want to buy it.

amanda

it has something that bothers me or i would say that is strange in it, still i like this one,maybe exactly because of this. But its really a bright and light and elegant scent, definitely for occasions.

natissimo

a very nice summer aroma. i just got one and loved it..:) i was surprised, but it appeared to be quite remarkable and romantic fragrance.:)

sandrina_bambina

Very elegant, tender and sooo feminine. I like this fragrance a lot, as much as Crystal Noir edition.
It`s real pink shiny scent, made of fresh watery fruit mixed with delicate lotus and magnolia flowers. Very romantic one that stays long on my skin.
Bottle is glamorous, it`s design is suitable for modern princesses:)))

Abbas

A very romantic and attractive purfume that have fruity smell that catch noses toward user, a delicate bottle its self looks good and purfume inside is aromatic too.

Marianne

I really liked it once but now I got used to it and regret buying the whole bottle. I mean, It's a really nice scent but I need something new every few weeks.

guest_Martina

nothing speciall,I prefere the original Crystal Noir,this one is too much citrus and not long lasting

lillybee

For me this scent is very fresh, almost crispy sweet at the beginning and I can smell a distinct rose aroma... the exact same smell of the yellow roses my mum used to have in her garden when I was little... this yellow rose was my favourite because it smells more than just rose... it's almost edible like a fruit...

This opening phase stays on for almost an hour and I started wondering if it didn't evolve any more at all...

it did... slowly and gradually the rosy scent was overtaken by the unmistakable exotic magnolia and lotus. I can detect magnolia very easily as my mum used to wear Magnolia from Yves Rocher when I was little and the smell of our bathroom we had then stayed with me.

This is an eau de toilette so won't last very long (6 hours approx) but then it changes dramatically into a moderately rich oriental dry down of amber and musk which was a very nice, sexy accompaniment to the flowery head.

Aeternitas

It's definitely like a bright crystal... sheer, shiny, and pretty. I don't know if it's just me, but the scent is hardly there, just that beautiful, crisp spritz at first and what's left is a delicate glow. I like it, but not enough to immediately add to my collection. What I really want to try is Crystal Noir... seems interesting.

sarah.as

I think its really a petty fragrance! Too "clean" & "neat", very floral with a modern touch! :D
