Starts delicious, super feminine and fresh, but the rose gains strength on the skin and turns green, like freshly cut tea. In the dry down, it smells a bit vintage and dark, like wilted flowers. Based on the notes, I didn’t expect this; I tried a decant to compare it with Eros (they don’t resemble each other). EDIT: My tastes have evolved, and now I like the green notes, though my previous opinion remains the same. I wear it right after showering; it’s refreshing in summer.

The opening is a feast: very feminine and fresh, but then the rose takes over and turns green, like freshly cut, thanks to the tea. In the end, it smells a bit vintage and dark, like wilted flowers. Based on the notes, I didn’t think I’d like it, but I tried a decant to compare with Eros (and they don’t resemble each other). EDIT: My tastes have evolved; now I love the ‘green’ aspect, though my previous opinion remains the same. I wear it after a shower; it’s refreshing in summer.
Perla Vencis
The bottle says exactly what’s inside: a clean scent. The stars are tiaré, jasmine, and roses; the tea adds a green touch while the cedar is just for longevity. It works best in spring and summer. I love wearing it after a shower to stay at home, feeling clean and subtly perfumed.
Maria del Mar Astorga
I love it. Despite being an eau de toilette, it has great longevity, very floral and refreshing, totally summery. However, I think it lacks personality; it doesn’t smell like Versace to me, it could be from a supermarket.
flor del sur
I’ve had it for two years and loved it. I noticed a strawberry opening followed by the base notes, the tea and cedar; that was the best part. I would buy it again. It sounds elegant and beautiful, nothing overwhelming, very subtle. I recommend it for spring and autumn.
tutipillix
I just bought it because it was cheap, and while I like it since I adore roses, I’m a bit disappointed. It smells very much like ‘Roses De Chloe’ and ‘Agua Fresca de Rosas Adolfo Dominguez’; those have personality, but Vanitas says nothing to me. It’s soft, floral, a bit acidic, the rose stands out, I like it but it doesn’t excite me.
Karymsad1
It’s very feminine, sweet, soft, and fresh. Freesias dominate, and people always ask what I’m wearing. It’s one of my favorites.

Starts super fresh with freesias or white flowers, then the rose comes in and it’s just beautiful, delicate, soft, and fresh. It’s sweet but in just the right measure, not cloying. The freshness comes from the tea. It’s for daily wear, office, but elegant.
flopy_2709
The opening is super fresh, with freesia or white flowers at first, and then the rose comes in, how beautiful! It’s delicate, soft, and fresh. The perfume is sweet but in just the right measure, without being cloying. That freshness surely comes from the tea. It’s perfect for daily wear or the office, but with elegance.
Elyve
I find it very feminine, fresh, with excellent longevity on my skin lasting hours without reapplying. It will be one of my favorites, and the important thing is that it’s timeless; you can wear it in any season. It’s very rich.
ArantxA87
Fresh and pleasant right after application, I liked it, but as it settles on the skin, a note intensifies that on my nose feels heavy and unbearable; it smells like mothballs. Yes, the longevity and fixation are strong for an eau de toilette. Not for me.

Upon application, it was fresh and pleasant, I really liked it, but as it settled, one note intensified and on my nose it’s heavy, almost unbearable, smelling like mothballs. That said, the longevity and sillage are very strong for an eau de toilette. Not for me.
