Versilia Aurum Profumi del Forte

Source: Basenotes.net



There are scents that have a couple of notes and yet smell like they hold the secrets of a Aladdin's cave. Then there are some perfumes that have a whole chorus of notes and yet only a few are resounding. Versilia Aurum falls into the latter group. 

It's caramel upon caramel, with a hint of fruit and flowers at most and I'm being generous in description. To do it justice, it does smell like authentic caramel sauce, unlike my failures with popular caramels like The Taste of Fragrance Alien by Thierry Mugler and Micallef's Mon Parfum. I wish they had put more effort into the juice than the bottle, the latter is gorgeous and the scent is just...nice. Edible but at that price-tag I expect more than just caramel from beginning to end.

Another plus point is its incredibly good lasting power and sillage. So if you are looking for a solid caramel and only caramel and don't mind paying for it, this would be one to try. I'll stick to Charbonnel et Walker's Sea Salt Caramel Truffles instead. 

Out of curiosity I googled the Top 10 Most Expensive Desserts and here they are:
