Valentina Assoluto Valentino 2012

~ Inspiration ~
Valentina (2011) had pleased me a few years ago very well in the fall and for the winter I wanted to test this Assoluto version.

~ bottle ~
The familiar shape of Valentina's has been retained. The bottle comes in a classy shade of rose, which is also reflected in the color of the liquid. My 50ml version has a matte, large rose on the front.

~ Scent ~
It starts right away a bit more quaffable than Valentina (2011). The strawberry was replaced by peach (-liqueur?), the gum-like tuberose continues to set the tone. To the creamy vanilla, a handful of patchouli was added.

~ Durability ~
On my skin, I perceive it about 5 hrs. On clothes and hair longer.

~ Occasion ~
I find it develops most beautifully on cold days in autumn and winter.

~ Conclusion ~
I am now annoyed at both variants this bubble gum tuberose.

In direct comparison to Valentina (2011) I do not recognize a big difference. It seems perhaps a little more adult, quasi like a big sister. Who with Valentina (2011) already did not get along, will have with this Assoluto variant, however, also his problems...
