Van Cleef: perfume for her and for him

Very often in the perfume and cosmetics store one can observe the following picture: a girl with an independent appearance wanders among the shelves with flacons, followed by a smoothly stealing consultant and something trying to show, recommend, convince of the need to purchase. "Yes, yes, you are coming, an excellent choice! And this is also not bad - the choice of self-confident. " The buyer who has become overwhelmed by pressure does not know what he wants - this or that, the nose does not perceive anything after the third fragrance, and as a result, either an eminent brand or what is offered is caught. As a rule, unknown customers ignore brands, preferring proven ones. But in vain. After all, among the little-known brands, there are sometimes very worthy ones. As, for example, "Van Cliff". Perfume from the famous brand, producing jewelry, can take not the last place in your collection of perfume.

First

A laconic name for the very first toilet water issued by the brand, is not it? She is already 40 years old, but the fragrance still does not lose its charm. Although fans of retro products "Van Cliff" (perfume), the reviews leave ambiguous. Someone compares with Connect Jivago, some people see Magie noir, some sniff Anais Anais. But everyone notes that water deserves attention.

Aroma belongs to the group of floral aldehydes. At the beginning of the composition, notes of mandarin, black currant, peach, raspberry, bergamot and aldehydes are heard. In the heart opens a flower bouquet from a Turkish rose, carnations, tuberose, hyacinth, orchid, jasmine, narcissus and lily of the valley. The riot of flowers dilutes the root of iris and ylang-ylang, bringing light astringency. The basic chords are also rich: courageous notes of vetiver, sandalwood, beans thin and moss are combined with the sweetness of honey and vanilla. Depths add civet, amber and musk.

The fragrance is all-season, daisy and resistant. But to smell better, like all aldehyde perfumes - without sticking your nose in your wrist, then there is a great chance for reciprocity.

Feerie

The first thing that you pay attention to when looking at the spirits of "Fairy" ("Van Cliff") is a bottle. He is fabulously good: a blue relief glass and a lid with an elegant fairy.

The fragrance itself is a vial: fruit-floral, sweet. The top notes are revealed by a combination of mandarin, black currant, red berries and violets. Jasmine and the Bulgarian rose in the heart. The base a little heavier composition with chords of iris and vetiver.

Most customers note that they clearly hear the raspberry flavor, which is not here.

Depending on the season, the perfume sounds differently: in the summer it may seem a little intrusive, and in winter and autumn it will warm sweet fruit notes and a sense of celebration.

Perfume "Van Cliff" "Fairy-tale" reviews are quite positive, there is no negative negative. The only downside is instability.

Feerie Rubis

Aroma belongs to the group of fruit floral. It is sweet, soft, slightly spicy. Feerie Rubis from "Van Cliff" (perfume) was released in 2015.

The upper chords are revealed by raspberry, powdered with pink pepper, red currant, perceptible sour citrus (tangerine, bergamot and lemon) and barely perceptible lychee. In the heart reigns a chic bouquet of magnolia, iris, white freesia, peony and light sweet peach. The base adds a fragrance of restraint and heaviness due to the combination of musk, thin bean, white cedar, sandalwood and violet.

These perfume reviews on the net are good. Some girls seem to have "hello" from the 90's or the smell of Duru soap, but such units. It is noted that the fragrance is quite persistent, especially when applied to clothing, and unobtrusive, so suitable for daily use. If you evaluate on a five-point scale, then this is a solid four.

Reve

"Van Cliff" spirits Reve released in May 2013, but to this day they enjoy a well-deserved love from admirers of the flavors of this brand.

Perfume belongs to the family of flower-fruit.

The pyramid is opened with a delicate fruit chord on the base of neroli and pear, then a flower heart from white lily, osmanthus and peony sounds. In the base of perfumery water - noble amber and sandalwood.

It is a delicate, elegant fragrance for every day. Ideal for spring, in other seasons can give unexpected chemical notes or seem too choking.

Reve elixir

Inspired by the success of Reve, in 2014, "Van Cliff" produces a heavier version of the fragrance.

To the classical upper notes, a peach blossom was added, the osmanthus and lily still solo in the heart, but backing vocals of iris and frangipani are added to them. In the base, in addition to sandalwood and amber, there are sharp notes of cedar wood.

The fragrance became more sensual and persistent. In the beginning it may seem a bit harsh and loud, but when it opens it becomes warmer and deeper.

Tsar

There are "Van Cleef" perfumes and masculine, with a memorable catchy name. The first version was released in 1989. Aroma absolutely male - no unisex and sweetness, inherent in many modern perfumes of the category "for him."

The top notes immediately open sharply and a little bit of a lump: lavender, rosemary, neroli, bergamot, fresh green notes, and all this is flavored with cinnamon and coriander. The feminine chords of the rose, lily of the valley, jasmine and geranium are felt, which are juxtaposed with the masculine notes of pine, tarragon, iris root and cumin. The base is also impressive with the composition: sandalwood, musk, tonka beans, patchouli, amber, leather, coconut, vetiver, moss and white cedar.

Feels coniferous smell and spices. The aroma is very resistant, daisy, a bit vintage. Suitable not for everyone, only bright, daring, self-confident.
