Roberto Cavalli Paradiso EDP - Review

When the original Roberto Cavalli EDP was released back in 2012 (how has it been 3 years!) I declared it the Scent Of Summer and an unmistakably sexy fragrance. It evoked  such wonderful feelings in me and I still love it just as much. You can read my original review here. This birthday I was given the latest fragrance release.

The new fragrance from Roberto Cavalli is Paradiso 

Notes - 

Top notes - Bergamot & Mandarin
Heart note - Wild Jasmine
Base notes - Cypress, Parasol Pine & Pink Laurel

The fragrance is described as a Woody Floral.

“Paradiso is about a moment of happiness. I wanted to give a feeling of that instant when you feel totally at ease,” Roberto Cavalli. 

My thoughts

Where the original EDP was a sexy and noticeable fragrance, that was all things Summer, I think this is a more sensual, subtle fragrance that is ideal for everyday wear being not at all obtrusive. At first it is a sparkling citrus fragrance that may appear to be a little heavy but this soon dries down to the warm floral heart and then the woody base notes push through. Personally I think this is an all year round fragrance. Feminine. 

The bottle 

I love the multi faceted flacon. This oozes bathroom shelf appeal.

Roberto Cavalli Paradiso EDP costs £37 for 30ml

BeautySwot's Fragrance Of The Year Award 2012

I have sniffed and reviewed many scents this year, I have even attended a few fragrance launches but one scent stood out for me time and time again with me opting to wear it more than any other. At the time of reviewing I said that it was my Scent Of The Summer but I am going one step further now.. The Perfume Of The Year accolade goes to Roberto Cavalli Eau De Pafum

Delicious, sweet and incredibly sexy, this is one scent that will never be put to the back of the cupboard.

What was your scent of the year?
