Hi Arlene!! I just wanted to leave you an appreciation comment. I’m usually a silent watcher, but I absolutely love your videos. I love that you are truly one of the only genuine fragrance reviewers that just loves fragrance. You’re honest, and you’re realistic. You don’t shove these fragrances down your viewers throats to buy. I know when you tell us you love something, that you actually do. You’ve taught me a lot. I’ve saved quite a bit of money after watching your videos, as you have shown me the importance of having samples and testing before you buy. I don’t have that guilty feeling in my gut anymore after buying a perfume I never smelled in my life, but some KZfaq told me I need to have it. You’re my fav fragrance channel! I hope you’re doing well during this hectic time in the world!!

It's got to be my favorite Versace fragrance. It's a warm fragrance, with a slightly spicy Gardenia scent on me and it's comforting and a little mysterious at the same time I love wearing the EDP in the Autumn and Winter month's with a cosy sweater or a shawl wrap. This EDT version also sounds creamy but alot fresher. I do like jasmine and frangipani so I'll have to sample it 🐱.Always love your reviews.

I slightly like the EDP version more, it's more complex and subtle; more warmer, spicier, coconutty and creamy (it reminds me very much of my beloved first omnia - the brown one) but the EDT is more prominent, lasts longer, smells stronger and it has something of a fresher aura. They are both very interesting, so much alike but also different. I have them both but I use the EDT more often simply because the EDP doesn't last long and it's sadly a weak fragrance in comparison to EDT (on my skin). To me the bottle is very unique, the color suits the fragrance completely and the big "stone" is beautiful.

@samanthamaggio6422 3 жыл бұрын

I used to own the first edt version, very savoury, coconut and spice with hella gardenia. I recently got the edp, it's a bit sweeter, more frangipani florals and still with the coconut, despite people saying its not a note. But it could be the fig and florals tricking my nose. Very strong, I do enjoy it but have to be in the mood for it as its one of them ones that stay pretty much the same from start to finish so can be tiring

This is the most mysterious fragrance! My bottle of the edt is a tester and has the notes written on it as: Cardamom, Pepper, Ginger, Gardenia, Peony, Orange Flower, Amber , Sandalwood, Musk. I have both old and newer formulations and can smell these notes, so it's odd that your sample has different notes written on it. May I ask If that's an older sample from your vintage ones you had? The other mystery is the coconut note that some seem to smell and some don't and it's not listed. I also have the Edp version but both have a coconut smell to me.

Lovely review. I like EDP version of the perfume. I have just purchased Alaia Nude recently which is supposed to be a dupe for this perfume and I love it 😍 It is so much well blended and it’s sweeter, more coconuty. Absolutely beautiful! Give it a try if you are not sure about Crystal Noire.

@irenelalouve2679 3 жыл бұрын

alaia nude is a dupe for crystal noir edt or edp?Also, have you tried both Alaia nude and the crystal noir and can attest to that or just the alaia?*ps a cheap alternative for crystal noir edt is the montana 80s which I have mentioned in another comment here-it is actually pretty similar it just doesn't quite reach the intoxicating powderiness of the original non-reformulated version of the crystal noir edt

@AM-sq6ur 3 жыл бұрын

@@irenelalouve2679 To me it’s more like EDT, it’s got the same DNA,same creameness but a bit more coconut. The projection isn’t great but I just overspray it and it does the trick. Personally I prefer Alaia…even the bottle is nicer.

Versace Yellow Diamond is my signature scent. I always get compliments with it. I do want to try this Noir. Maybe it will be a good winter fragrance

@belletaunde102 2 жыл бұрын

Same with yellow diamond, it's a very nice signature scent. Versace crystal noir edp, fair warning, is pretty heavy and two sprays on the skin goes a long way....I almost gagged and had to wash it off my skin because it's so strong. Something about either the pepper or the black currant makes me nauseous but the dry down is very nice.

@gglicious 3 жыл бұрын

To me EDT & EDP smells quite similar or identical to each other. It's just EDP has a little bit more... intense, maybe... About the name, i think it is meant to be bright like crystal (i mean crystal/diamond) even though it has quite heavy dose of spiky spices. Fresh yet quite rich spiciness... if you know what i mean... i don't know how to explain 😅😅😅 but that's what i feel whenever i smell/wear it

@scorpiokitty9745 3 жыл бұрын

I have both, and to me, they smell almost identical. The edp has a bit more prominent coconut scent-which I am not fond of...and it has been discontinued. I find that the edt actually projects more, lasts just as long, is a bit fresher(the ginger), and is a proper compliment getter...men goes crazy over this one😁

ooh now that the edt notes have come out I realised I definitely can smell the fruity opening in the edt. I think thats why I love the edt more than the edp! The strange thing is though, I smelt a bottle of the edt at a store and it smelt extremely soapy and unpleasant, and then i smelt another bottle of the same edt in a different store and it smelt incredible and thats where I bought it from. I wonder why it smelt so different at the different stores. anyway im just glad my bottle smells so incredible.

you have the reformulated version as it is usually the practice of all perfume houses.

I have edp versionWhen first got this i wasnt crazy for it because there was this sharp bugspray aroma but it faded somewhat quickly .i got no coconut especially the way ppl were putting this in there coconut videos like it was the backbone.i ended up giving it to my 19 yr old she loved it.and when smelt it on her i liked it almost a samsara vibe maybe the sandalwood.so she over sprays and 3 mos go buy she only has a little left and i tried it again .weirdly that Sharp bug spray smell was gone ? So i just this week ordered her another bottle for her birthday.gave it to her early same edp.she opened it we both sprayed it and bam!! Bug spray! She cant detect this at all.so i took her old bottle .sprayed it on other wrist to compare and thank goodness im crazy she noticed the old bottle was sweeter and more powdery which she describes the so called bug spray that im smelling. A fresh note. But thats wha i got from it. its love at the end of bottle. For me. it smells good its reasonably priced.just wish i could detect the coconut.
