Bella Vita Luxury Date Perfume for Women | Eau De Parfum for Women | Pink Pepper, Red Fruit & Jasmine | Fruity and Floral Long-Lasting EDP Fragrance | 3.34 Fl.Oz| Best Gift For Valentine's Day

2nd Update 10/17/25: I started using this in april of 2024. It’s still my daily choice of perfume. Just today, someone kindly asked me what I was wearing after smelling me in front of her in a parking garage! I showed her the Amazon listing and BOOM, she’s gonna buy it. At this point, I don’t want anything but this perfume. Take the blind leap of faith with your sniffer ☝️ UPDATE: I’ve been using this perfume for approximately 4ish months now. My original review said the scent lasted a while, but I do think it actually wears off quickly. I find myself reapplying it at least 1-2 times throughout the day. However, literally never in my life have I had so many complete and random strangers approach me about my scent. Everywhere I go, someone starts sniffing the air and says something smells really good. I held a baby for a few minutes and someone could smell my perfume on the baby and said it smelled good. Random women at work constantly tell me I smell amazing. Women tend to love the smell. I had a woman approach me in the grocery store and said she was a scent connoisseur and asked me what I was wearing because she loved it so much. She was shocked when I told her how affordable the scent was. I frequently get comments like “you smell like luxury” or “you smell expensive”! My coworkers sniff my like a dog sometimes!!! The scent has definitely grown on me and I really enjoy the woody and spicy yet also very sweet scent. If you are contemplating purchasing it, DO IT. You will thank yourself later because people will be all over you about how delicious you smell, especially once the scent settles into your skin and melds with your natural pheromones. This scent is definitely an attention grabber and makes you feel sexy and mysterious and flirty! This literally has become my daily perfume despite the fact that I previously decided it wouldn’t be based on a one time use. If you buy and don’t love it right away, use it for a week and the rethink your decision! I originally gave it 4 stars, but I’m giving it 5 now. Original: The scent does last quite a while. I sprayed some on me in the evening because I wanted to smell the new scent and I caught some scents of it lingering the next morning. The scent is sweet and thick. It has slight hints of citrus but the vanilla and patchouli are the strongest notes. The spice is also a bit stronger than I’d personally prefer however, it’s still quite nice. It’s a great date night scent. It reminds me of the bath and body scents but with better quality and way longer lasting. I wouldn’t necessarily pick it as a daily perfume but a great addition to the collection for when I’m feeling spicy and sexy. I’m excited to try more scents!

Some background, I haven’t worn any type of perfume besides Bath and Body Works Hibiscus Paradise for years now, so I really wasn’t sure how I’d feel about this perfume. It isn’t a dupe whatsoever, but I absolutely love this perfume!!!! It’s sweet and warm but not overly sweet. When I first sprayed it I actually didn’t like it, I thought it smelled like some type of Clorox wipe mixed with a grandma perfume but after it settled (a couple minutes) I found that the scent changed and I was liking it more and more. The next time I sprayed it I didn’t get that same weird scent so maybe it was just a first spray out of the bottle type thing. I wear this every day now, it smells so nice, and I’ve gotten compliments on it. I don’t smell any of the rose notes, and my mom said she definitely smells the musk. My neighbor said she gets the honey notes from it. I thunk over all it’s a great scent, and I kinda like the everyone who smells it on me gets a different vibe, it makes it more versatile. The bottle came in perfect condition I’m obsessed with the look of it, and I think it’s real glass! The stream is not too wide but it doesn’t go far so I hold it close to my wrist. I definitely think the scent lasts longer in clothes than skin. But it lasts a long time, longer than a Bath and Body Works spray which I was wearing before.

This perfume smells really great after it settles and it is very strong. When i first sprayed it though it sort of bit my nose like an alcohol wipe, but after it dried and settled it smelled great. I really like it and think it was well worth the money spent, it is just a little harsh when you spray at first and truly you do not need to spray a lot. It is strong and lasts for quite a while in my experience.

So this is a pretty, golden bottle, BUT the "honey" profile ends there?? Juice has notes of oud, lime, generally masculine, warm, and spicy in a gourmand, environmental (i.e. think warm and spicy home or kitchen waft, versus a particular dish or cuisine) sense. It's woody and definitely skews more "manly"/ masculine in spray profile and on the skin. Wear/ scent goes on heavy, would suggest direct-to-skin application, conservative spritz (1-2), then allowing air dry before donning clothing. Spraying your clothes is going to run strong, with an alcoholic finish. Let that carrier (alcohol) dry off, don't wear it in your attire. Final product is subtle and intimate in sillage, it's closer quarters and closer contact, rather than an announcement you're here. IF you spray clothing, you may do more screeching-- but dry-down with light spritz is understated and warm. - 3 stars because wear-time seems to run shorter, - Also expected a feminine finish?? But don't get traditionally "girly" or "womanly" notes anywhere in this one? - I'm a big fan of Mugler's Angel line (and personally own multiple flankers), so I don't mind a heavier patchouli-- but I don't find him here? (Amazon advertises this accord in product byline) - Gifted full bottle to teenaged son, along with some of the guidelines here about keeping his application light, and out of clothing directly. Sidenote: Even though this scent has "honey" in the name, perfume Bible (Fragrantica) doesn't list or include honey in its scent accords?? They also don't list the patchouli mentioned above?? I can't account for a honey scent at all here, either, but scent does run sweetly warm. TLDR: If you're looking for a BIG honey signature (i.e. KK "Pure Honey," or Demeter line), this is NOT the cologne/ perfume for you. That being said, it's a woody, intimate masculine fragrance that won't break the bank, and doesn't smell like every other gentleman, or masc-leaning cologne, on the market today.

This perfume smells good on my daughter, but it did not smell good on me so I gave it to her one thing I can say is it very long lasting. She goes to school and I can still smell it on her when I pick her up, but I don’t think it blends in with everybody’s body oils, but it’s worth the money

Oh my goodness! This fragrance smells like everything that I would want from a warm rich scent! It does smell luxurious, like a soft velvety dress with a beautiful satin slip It’s bold but elegant. It smells like sophistication and beauty all wrapped up in one! I love a nice smelling spicy scent that smells like floral yet deep and this delivers. I am not sure if the notes as I am unsure but it is AMAZING! for this price point you can afford to take a leap! It’s not airy and light but reminds me of a sultry oldies movie where the sirens has an off shoulder dress maybe a boa, a long cigarette in a holder AB’s she had those half closed eye lids and looks like she can seduce anyone. That’s how this fragrance makes you feel!

It smells amazing! Very sweet and musky. It has a very strong scent so you only need a little to smell amazing. It is supper strong so I would say a little spray is all you need. Very wearable for every day, or events. Bottle came perfectly intact and without damage. It is a very feminine scent also. And it is a larger bottle than I expected, very worth the price.

Update: 1 month after purchase , 4 months after it was created (date on the bottle), the scent has changed for the better! Going from 1 star to 4 stars!! I will have to see if I still have an allergic reaction to it, or if that has changed too. Original review: I knew this was a gamble, but I was hopeful. The sweet honey scent disappears after a minute and you are left with a cheap smelling spicy peppery scent. Reminding me of rancid self tanners. Boyfriend said it smells like body odor. I tried it on myself and on plan paper and the scents were the same. It’s sad one reviewer said she didn’t like it, but after 9 months it changed 😵‍💫 and then she liked it. The fact it changes after 9 months is also a red flag! I am not a sweet perfume person, I tend to gravitate towards warm cozy musks, like coco Chanel, Armani Si... but this musk is not pleasant. It definitely has an odd unique scent, but not one I would like as my signature scent. I tried layering it with other perfumes to see if i could successfully marry it with a slightly floral, mint, powdery and even citrus scents… but it didn’t matter what I tried to pair it with, the heavy smell dominated after a minute. Apparently they changed the scent profile or it’s a bad batch?? Probably more importantly, I had an allergic reaction to this… even days after wearing it, despite numerous attempts to wash it off… especially behind the ears. And when smelling my wrist, it got on my top lip and my lip started to burn. If you love heavy musky scents that aren’t sweet, more masculine, and don’t mind losing $20… then this might be worth the gamble.
