Note Pyramid
Eros
Versace Eros is built on a contrast that defines it: icy mint over warm vanilla, with very little in between to soften the collision.
Mint opens it hard and cold, with green apple and lemon adding a sharp, almost metallic brightness. The first few minutes are genuinely bracing.
Then tonka bean and ambroxan arrive and the temperature changes completely. Ambroxan is the material responsible for the fragrance's reach, giving it a warm, enveloping quality that carries, and geranium adds a dry green edge that stops the transition being abrupt.
Madagascan vanilla dominates the base, with Virginia cedar, Atlas cedar, vetiver and oakmoss underneath giving it dry wood and a mossy floor. The vanilla is what people remember; the wood is what keeps it from being sickly.
How Eros wears
It lasts a long time and projects strongly, so restraint on application pays. Cold weather and evenings suit it best.
Versace Eros Eau de Toilette, sold here as a gift set, created by Aurélien Guichard in 2012 for Versace, the Milan house founded in 1978.
