  Very pleasant perfume with a perfect balance between spices flowers and fruits with no single note dominating. It has no projection; to smell it you have to bring your wrist close to your nose and no one else will notice it unless you hug them. It can be a defect or a virtue depending on taste and occasion. The brush for applying it is very comfortable and fun. Longevity is about four hours and it fades sooner with a light wash.

  A very pleasant perfume that balances spices flowers and fruits without anything dominating. It has no projection; you have to get very close to smell it and only someone hugging you will notice it. It can be a defect or a virtue depending on taste. The brush for applying it is comfortable and funny. It lasts about four hours and fades even sooner with a light wash.

  Desnuda was one of the last attempts by the Ungaro house. It was a failure; the perfume itself seemed to anticipate the decline the house was heading toward a decline that would soon be confirmed with the departure of Emanuel (a disciple of Balenciaga) from his brand. Fifteen years later Ungaro continues to sleep the sleep of the righteous waiting for a new creator to give it a good shake and resurrect it. Desnuda wasn’t bad but it was a perfume with little personality almost watery. More than a fragrance it was a skin scent or a luxurious mist because the sillage was quite short. The brush it included seemed to intuit the nature of this perfumed mist that defined it. The brush was very sensual at the time; the touch of those cold perfume-dampened bristles against a neck or wrist had a very beautiful erotic vibe. As for the essence it was just an oriental florifruit in the 2000s style: exotic and sexual sandalwood notes very light vanilla peach osmanthus… I remember that at first the clash of cinnamon with cardamom and pepper didn’t work too well; if my memory serves it produced horrible medicinal and spicy nuances like the feminine Kenzo Jungle which then disappeared to end up in a bed of flowers spices and fruits that were very imprecise blurred and vague where no note stood out. It also had a diluted density which I don’t think was a mistake because not always or at least I don’t believe so do you need to empty half a bottle of a witch’s potion that causes strokes in our wake. In Desnuda both the name and the application up to the aroma presented themselves as an intimate act of grooming coquettishness and seduction. It spoke very quietly but was full of notes we had felt much more powerfully before in Dolce Vita and so many others. Here those fruity wood chords had the packaging of a sheer curtain on a canopy moved by a breeze. Desnuda smelled like lingerie like a curve of a belly where if you go lower you’ll find something else and more than sex it smelled like the promise of sex. It was terribly sexy erotic and like so many female launches of its time almost unisex. Besides it had nothing perverse; it possessed a luminous sexuality for everyone. I have no idea how the current spray bottles are doing; I imagine the formula has dropped several quality scales because the Ungaro house itself is almost dead. The one I remember from 2002 the one with the little brush was a boring perfume with zero personality but to smell it smelled great.

  Desnuda was the latest hit from Ungaro and watch out it wasn’t a success. It seemed to predict the house’s sunset which was confirmed when Emanuel left. Today the brand is still in a coma waiting for a miracle. The perfume wasn’t bad but it lacked character almost watery. More than a fragrance it was a skin scent a luxurious mist with a short sillage. That brush that came with the bottle intuited everything: it was perfumed mist. I found it very sensual; the touch of those cold perfume-dampened bristles on a neck or wrist had a beautiful erotic vibe. The essence was a 2000s oriental florifruit: exotic and sexual sandalwood light vanilla peach osmanthus… At first the clash of cinnamon with cardamom and pepper didn’t work well producing horrible medicinal and spicy nuances like Kenzo Jungle until it faded into a bed of imprecise and blurred flowers spices and woods where nothing stood out. It had a diluted density and while I don’t think it was a mistake not always do you need to empty half a bottle of a witch’s potion that causes strokes. In Desnuda the name the use and the aroma were an intimate act of grooming and seduction. It spoke quietly but was full of notes we had felt much more powerfully before in Dolce Vita and others. Here those fruity wood chords had the packaging of a sheer curtain on a canopy moved by a breeze. It smelled like lingerie like a curve of a belly where if you go lower there’s something else and more than sex it smelled like the promise of sex.

  I bought it because people said it was a dupe of Dior’s Dolce Vita and they weren’t wrong. It’s very similar to the one I had back in the late 90s which I never found again with that same fixative and intensity. The bottle is nice; it no longer comes with a brush or anything exotic just a standard spray. The scent is perfect for anyone with nostalgia for Dolce Vita. It’s not exactly the same True but even the current Dolce Vita still sold in some perfumeries (which isn’t very common to find) doesn’t have much in common with the one from that era. Besides this little Ungaro perfume costs four times less the sillage is moderate in my opinion and the longevity is acceptable. If I wear it to sleep I still perceive it the next day though more on clothes than on skin. The aroma is spicy and warm; in my mind it’s associated with champagne but far from being fresh it’s more torrid. I don’t know if the following description makes sense but here it goes: it’s like drinking extra brut champagne on a Nile cruise on a very hot twilight crossing paths with a spice-laden boat. Fortunately on my skin it doesn’t take on any bitter or medicinal tones. I hope they keep making it.

  I bought it because they said it was a dupe of Dior’s Dolce Vita and they didn’t miss. It’s very similar to the one I had in the 90s which I never found again with that same fixative and intensity. The bottle is nice; it doesn’t bring a brush or anything exotic anymore just a normal spray. The scent is perfect for those who miss the Dolce Vita. It’s not the same yes but even the current Dolce Vita that is sold occasionally doesn’t have much to do with the one from that era.

  It’s a very pleasant wearable perfume with an elegant sophisticated and even sexy tone. It contains essences that should be louder and more striking like cinnamon vanilla neroli sandalwood and tonka bean—strong aromas that are noticeable—but the scent barely lasts staying very close to the skin (maybe it lasts longer on clothes). It’s lovely yes very lovely but it lacks that powerful or complex beauty of UN SENSO UN UNGARO or UN DIVA; it feels like a perfume conceived for the market but nothing more. My best friend gifted it to me about 8 years ago and today I decided to try it again after letting it macerate to see if aging it gave it more strength; I can perceive it it reaches me and I like it. I’ll summarize it like this: it’s okay but not wooow not that much more, just a little something. I still managed to catch the beautiful bottle with the brush, which is very lovely, because the bottle itself is stunning. In its dry-down, it reminds me a lot of my beloved COCO NOIR and ONE MILLION. So for those who like a very soft, shy, discreet, and above all very pleasant perfume, here you have a wonderful option.

  Truth be told this is the first Emanuel Ungaro I’ve tried and it has really won me over. The bottle has simple yet coquettish lines. I absolutely love the fragrance; the name is a hit because it smells like smooth bare skin just with moisturizer on it. It’s feminine sensual creamy tender and warm. In my opinion it’s not for very young girls or very mature women; I’d say it’s for women aged 35 to 45. I wouldn’t wear it in the heat because it lacks freshness but it’s perfect for fall and winter and more suitable for day than night. It seems like a perfume that can’t offend anyone and has its own originality setting itself apart from the rest. I would buy it again and that says a lot especially since I don’t say that about other perfumes that are much more expensive. It doesn’t seem powdery to me like Fragancia.net claims; I generally dislike powdery scents because they feel outdated and this one doesn’t. The longevity is also good; I can still smell it several hours later. I can’t comment on the sillage because no one has commented on the perfume I’m wearing. The letters of the name on the bottle fade in just a few days of use; it looks like they were painted with a marker.

  Truth be told it’s the first Ungaro perfume I’ve smelled and I loved it. The bottle has simple yet coquettish lines. I really like the fragrance. The name is a hit because it truly evokes smooth bare skin just perfumed with moisturizer. It’s feminine sensual creamy tender and warm. In my opinion it’s not for very young girls or very mature women; I’d say it’s for women aged 35 to 45. I wouldn’t wear it in warm weather because it doesn’t have enough freshness but it’s perfect for fall and winter and more for day than night. It seems like a perfume that can’t disgust anyone and has its own originality setting itself apart from the others. I would buy it again and that says a lot especially since I don’t say that about other perfumes that are much more expensive. It doesn’t seem powdery to me like Fragancia.net says in the composition.
