The combination of rose and musk often results in a velvety, languorous effect, even if the rose is rendered as a sheer, crisp note. This is certainly the case with Narciso Rodriguez Essence , a fragrance that takes the classical aldehydic floral idea of Chanel No 5 and Lanvin Arpège and presents it...

Rarely do "simple" fragrances (scents with few ingredients or little development) hold my attention or gain my affection. I prefer perfumes that change their expression several times a day - perfumes that make a journey.

It's an elegant scent for only a very special & elegant woman to wear.It's mysterious scent appropriate special occasions, daily use and evening use. It's perfect.

Bought this for my wife and this has become her favorite perfume, even over the Versace Eros and Burberry London which I had bought for her previously. While the Burberry London used to be my favorite perfume on her until Versace Eros took that slot, that has now changed and this Narcisco is my #1...

This was a Christmas Present that arrived Late, I was warned that it might not arrive on time, but I thought it would make it. The product is great, but S and H was slow.

I wore Fred Hayman 273 for 25 years I loved it so much but it was sadly sold to Avon who proceeded to ruin it so for the past 3 years I've been looking for a replacement and when I first read about Narciso I really wanted to try it.

I've been searching for a replacement for discontinued Le Feau d'Issey, this one could be it. Sexy, floral but not cloying... Deep and rich, beautiful end notes. Diffuses nicely, retaining its richness.

Arrived on time and in great condition. Beautiful sexy smell. I highly recommend this perfume very feminine. My husband noticed me first and he came closer to smell me.

*Please ignore the Nina Ricci part of the title - not sure what happened there!* Narciso Rodriguez is a fashion brand. A range of male and female fragrances are also available. Essence Eau de Musc Eau de musc is part of the Essence fragrance collection.

I religiously wear the original Narciso Rodriguez but my husband bought me Essence for a change. It is very different from the original and is very flowery, fresh and citrusy! A really nice fresh daytime perfume for me.
