The Dreamer, Versace Perfume for Men
This Gianni Versace perfume was launched just one year before its creator was murdered. It’s not like Kennedy of course, but I think every perfume enthusiast remembers where they was when Versace was murdered. I was in a friend’s house sunbathing in her garden, when the radio broke the news.
Ok, I admit I’m taking a tragic event as an excuse to ramble. What I really wanted to say is that I love this Versace perfume, even if my judgment is biased. The thing is, the first time I bought it, it wasn’t a gift, it was for me. You know how these things work, right? I didn’t buy it for me, I did it because it reminded me of someone, but I’d better leave this stroll down memory lane for another time and maybe another blog and go back to the review…
I usually don’t pay too much attention to a perfume bottle but I like The Dreamer’s. I think in its simplicity it does its job very well. If what they wanted was to convey a sense of strength, confidence and love for freedom, I guess they made it.
Versace Perfume The Dreamer
Like many Versace perfumes, The Dreamer has a mixed personality, which sometimes clashes with individual skins and/or ideas of what a men’s perfume should be and, as a result, not everybody likes it.
I’ve nonetheless read some unfair bad reviews about it being too “chemical.” I’m not sure what this is supposed to mean, as almost all perfumes on the market, even the latest most expensive ones are 80% chemical, but if the terms is used as opposed to “natural smelling,” then it’s somehow true.
I blame the strong opening notes, maybe a bit too strong, which scare off first timers easily. For the brave, the great tobacco middle notes of this Versace perfume are a pleasant reward.
