“Citruses, bergamot, and juniper over anise — Versace's 1994 affordable aromatic masculine, sharp vintage.”
One of the iconic budget masculine launches of the mid-1990s — Jean-Pierre Bethouart's 1994 release for Versace, recognizable in the blue-denim-printed bottle. Bergamot at the top, a lavender heart, settling on a vanilla-tonka drydown. A spring and summer daytime fragrance.
