1. Omnia Golden Citrine Eau De Toilette
Review
Inspired by the energy of crystals, the Omnia Golden Citrine Eau De Toilette invokes sunshine and a warm glow. With a top note of Sicilian mandarin and white peach, the fragrance is paired with the heart of ylang-ylang. Enriched by golden benzoin and cedarwood on the dry down, Omnia Golden Citrine is an uplifting and positive scent.
Created by Alberto Morillas for Bvlgari, it is described as a smooth and sweet Oriental Floral fragrance. Omnia Golden Citrine lasts a moderate amount of time, usually over 4 hours, with a heavy sillage that lingers in the air.
Overall, this fragrance is a daytime fragrance that can be worn every day. It suits the spring and summer seasons best on account of its citrus scent with an airy, warm edge.
The limited-edition packaging of Omnia Golden Citrine is an absolute showstopper. It pays homage to the world of the Luna Park, in an eye-catching hexagonal box that’s chic, whimsical and eye-catching while still being undeniably luxe.

2. Splendida Magnolia Sensuel Eau de Parfum
Review
Launched as part of the Splendida Collection created by perfumer Jacques Cavallier, this rich and sensual fragrance balances mystery and seduction with freshness.
Splendida Magnolia Sensuel Eau de Parfum has citrus top notes (predominantly tangerine), followed with a floral heart of magnolia. One of the shortest-lived flowers brings an intensive aroma, beautifully blending in with white flowers of jasmine and orange blossom. Upon dry-down, the base is best described as sensual and woody, with just a hint of sweetness coming from vanilla.
The perfume lasts reasonably well with a soft to moderate sillage, perfect for wearing during the day or when you don’t want your fragrance to wear you. It’s alluring and heavy enough to wear in spring and summer evenings, or even in the daytime depending on the occasion.
The bottle exudes the sensuality and transmits the luxury of the fragrance, with the intense, deep purple glass and a square shape that showcases curves within.

4. Eau Parfumee Au The Rouge Eau De Cologne
Review
Eau Parfumee Au The Rouge is a unisex perfume with a gentle and sensual tea-based scent. Including the fragrance of Roiboos tea from South Africa with Yunan tea from China, Eau Parfumee Au The Rouge is a warm, voluptuous and woody scent created by Olivier Polge.
Opening with notes of pink pepper, orange and bergamot, the perfume eventually dries down to a warm fragrance. The heart of red tea and fig, harmonises walnut and musk creating a fragrance with depth.
In terms of longevity, Eau De Cologne lasts around 4 hours. It has a soft to moderate sillage that lends itself particularly well to every day, daytime wear all year round.
The packaging is more retro than other Bvlgari offerings. It doesn’t quite offer the frivolity of some other fragrances, but instead looks sturdy and inspired by tea to an extent. Perfect for a unisex fragrance without being too masculine or frumpy.

6. Omnia Pink Sapphire Eau de Toilette
Review
Omnia Pink Sapphire Eau de Toilette is a vibrant and “festive floral” that combines bright citrus and exotic flowers. Part of the ‘Omnialandia’ concept of fragrance, it’s inspired by the energy of crystals in both look and scent.
Refreshing notes of grapefruit and spicy pink pepper are at the top of this fragrance, with heart notes of frangipani and tiare flower. Omnia Pink Sapphire dries down with a base note of sweet vanilla and is a spring and summer fragrance that’s best for daytime wear.
Relatively soft in both longevity and sillage so would work well for everyday wear or occasions where you don’t want your fragrance to wear you.
The presentation of this fragrance is undeniably feminine, with transparent pink glass that certainly invokes the name of the perfume. The Bvlgari branding is embossed across the silver of the bottle, which contrasts against the pink glass. It comes in a luxurious, hexagonal box that can be displayed all by itself.
Top Notes:
Grapefruit Zest, Pomelo & Pink Pepper
Mid Notes:
Frangipani & Tiare Flower
Base Notes:
Musk & Vanilla

7. Goldea The Roman Night Eau de Parfum
Review
Goldea The Roman Night Eau de Parfum, developed by Master Perfumer Alberto Morillas, was inspired by the energy emanating from a festive and starry night in Rome.
The perfume features top notes of bergamot, black pepper and mulberry with a heart of black peony, night-blooming jasmine, rose and tuberose. It dries down to base notes of patchouli, black musk, vetiver and moss.
The scent is moderate to long-lasting – you’re probably going to get the best part of all-day wear out of this – with a mild sillage. Goldea, The Roman Night Eau de Parfum, is definitely an evening fragrance, as its name would suggest. It is slightly spicy with a floral scent that encompasses a slight sweetness to it.
The bottle is just as dramatic as the name and backstory of the perfume. Glossy black glass, gold embossing and a fragrance cap – that’s reminiscent of silver, full moon.
Top Notes:
Bergamot, Black Pepper & Mulberry
Mid Notes:
Black Peony, Night-Blooming Jasmine, Rose & Tuberose
Base Notes:
Patchouli, Black Musk, Vetiver & Moss

8. Thé Blanc Eau De Cologne
Review
Another unisex fragrance from Bvlgari, Thé Blanc Eau de Cologne, is a floral, woody scent created by Jacques Cavallier. It is understated, soothing and comforting and invokes the delicacy of feeling absolutely complete, relaxed and intimate.
Thé Blanc Eau de Cologne opens with top notes of zesty citruses, tea, artesmia. The spicy heart of pepper, cardamom and coriander, intertwined with cooling rose and jasmine, blends in nicely with a musky base.
The subtle scent has a soft sillage and relatively short longevity on the skin. Perfect for any season and daytime wear, Thé Blanc Eau de Cologne would particularly be appreciated by those who prefer less overpowering fragrance.
The white glass bottle, inspired by the name of the fragrance, features golden colour lid and illustration to the front, adding a hint of glamour.
Top Notes:
Tea, Artesmia, Bergamot, Bitter Orange & Orange Blossom
Mid Notes:
Pepper, Cardamom & Coriander

9. Splendida Jasmin Noir Eau de Parfum
Review
The Splendida Jasmin Noir Eau de Parfum was developed by Sophie Labbe for Bvlgari. It brings together pure opulence in floral form, with a dry woodiness that sits behind the florals, creating mystery, confidence and elegance with intense charisma.
The opening notes of gardenia with an enticing heart of sandalwood and jasmine gives way to cashmeran, tonka bean and patchouli in the base. The green notes and sweet, fragrant aromas in this blend are truly captivating, giving it a dazzling sparkle.
In terms of longevity, Splendida Jasmin Noir is pretty average, lasting around 4-6 hours with a soft to moderate sillage. It’s an autumn scent, which is lovely for evening wear. Some of the other Bvlgari offerings and the name “Noir” definitely suits here.
The packaging of Splendida Jasmin Noir is dramatic and noir-inspired too, with black glass and gold embossing and spray cap. Robust, minimalist and striking, just like the fragrance within.
Top Notes:
Gardenia & Green Notes
Mid Notes:
Sandalwood & Jasmine
Base Notes:
Cashmeran, Tonka Bean & Patchouli

10. Omnia Crystalline Eau de Toilette
Review
Omnia Crystalline Eau de Toilette is another scent that’s inspired by the perfection and purity of crystals, aimed at the refined and contemporary woman. It’s a delicate, clean and gentle fragrance that captures the scent of frosted flowers.
The top notes of this fragrance are bamboo and exotic Japanese fruit Nashi (similar to both apple and pear). The heart is ruled by soft and feminine notes of lotus blossom, surrounded by woody base notes on the dry down.
It lasts relatively moderately (around 4 hours) with a soft to moderate sillage that’s understated on the skin. It would suit spring wear due to the florals and fruit in the fragrance, combined with the lightness of the scent; the airy bamboo, clean sharpness and woody base could make it an option for winter too.
The silver, interlocking perfume bottle also captures the essence of clean, crystal minimalism. It has etched Bvlgari branding, and a pure – almost austere or clinical – look to it.
Top Notes:
Bamboo & Nashi
Mid Notes:
Lotus Blossom
Base Notes:
Wood, Oakmoss & Musk
