Versace Bright Crystal Absolu ~ new fragrance

Posted by Robin on 11 October 2013 5 Comments

Versace Bright Crystal Absolu

Versace will launch Bright Crystal Absolu, a more intense and longer lasting variation on 2005's Bright Crystal.

Bright Crystal Absolu was developed by perfumer Alberto Morillas, who also developed the original Bright Crystal fragrance. Notes for the fruity floral include yuzu, pomegranate, icy accord, raspberry, lotus flower, peony, magnolia, Acajou wood, vegetal amber and musk.

Versace Bright Crystal Absolu will be available in 50 and 90 ml Eau de Parfum. It launches in Italy this month; look for it in the US around February 2014.

    The first one was bad enough, Imo…now a flanker. I see too much pink today!

    I Have never really seen the Appeal of this Fragrance when “Crystal Noir” is SO Much Better Done than this… It smells, Frankly, Cheap and Synthetic (not in a good way) and Too Frutti Tutti to really constitute as a Serious Fragrance from a Serious House like Versace. Gimme V’E Versace or Blonde Anyday!

    P.S. I DO Love Love LOVE Versace Signature (One of the GREAT Fragrances of the last decade) and Vanitas which is really well made and Pretty.

      I cannot remember if I even tried Vanitas, but I did like Versense.

      Crystal Noir was way better done. Too much gardenia for my tastes but still, well done.
