Long-lasting, fades well
This was the first perfume I ever bought for myself. The fragrance is delicately floral without being overpowering, and is not too girly, so it would suit teenagers as well as women. If you understand how colours smell, this one is pale yellow - the colour of crysanthemums.
It lasts a long time, and fades into something slightly heavier which is still pleasant.
I would recommend this to anyone as a day-wear or a summer perfume; it isn`t really strong enough for the evenings. I wear it daily, and it has become my signature scent. My husband loves it too, and asks me to wear it if I forget.

An enduring modern classic
I first received this perfume as a gift on my 21st birthday and instantly recognised it as the perfume which I had been searching for. It has a heavy, sweet, floral scent which could be described as being both powdery and decadent. It evokes the opulence and mystique of the Belle Epoque era of silent movies and art nouveau. You imagine it should be worn with furs and precious stones.
I have been using it for 5 years now and it is the kind of scent that quickly becomes your own (My best friend says that when she smells it in the street, she instantly thinks of me). I would say this fragrance is ideal for glamorous evening occasions, but to be honest, I can`t resist wearing it during the day as well.
Dolce Vita suits women of any age and it comes in a beautiful bottle which is shaped like a glittering glass ball. All in all, I think it is fair to say that no woman could fail to feel sumptuous and elegant in a haze of Dolce Vita.
