How it moves

Up top: mint, green apple and lemon. Enjoy them; they will not stay. Then the heart turns up — Tonka Bean, geranium and Ambroxan — and the whole thing slows down. It dries down to vanilla, vetiver and cedar, close to the skin and hard to forget.

What wearers say

4.06 out of 5 across 30,000 ratings — well loved, and not quietly.

  • Loved for its mint, green apple, and tonka-vanilla sweetness; described as fresh, bold, and energetic with a candy-cool vibe.
  • A powerhouse performer by consensus, with big projection and long wear that many say lasts all day and fills a room.
  • Regarded as a versatile club and date-night crowd-pleaser for younger wearers; critics call it loud, sweet, and very common.

Who made it

Aurelien Guichard composed it in 2012, for Versace in Italy. Versace's mint-and-vanilla ode to Greek love and desire — a loud, youthful club and date staple.
