Gem Eau de Toilette par Van Cleef & Arpels

Avis à la une Le plus détaillé des avis récents.

Opulence, sophistication and pure elegance.

Imagine Joan Collins on the set of Dynasty with this fragrance. Gem is the 80s in their purest form, yet it breaks the typical rose-chypre with leather scheme of that era. It stands out for its complexity, turning towards a more animalic side, with doses of civet, fruity and vanilla, with hints of amber and soft spices (at first, cypress, coriander and patchouli mark more). Many compare it to Poison; although they are similar, Poison leans more towards incense, red fruits, intense plum and a glimmer of honey. Gem is more vanilla, the plum is there but does not dominate because it competes with the peach, without forgetting the civet. Entering the world of Gem is knowing a fragrance that makes a difference, worthy for a woman who appreciates her aesthetics and lives them with fullness. In return, it gives you a glamour that no longer exists today. Here are fragrances that get lost in time; with Gem I understand why there are jewels that stopped making, they do not want to reformulate or get crushed like their contemporaries. They prefer to be eternal in their original formula, the one that made them worthy, in a place where no association restricts their notes and they are received by those who know what they have. Nothing more, with this fragrance you feel surrounded by luxury.
