Perfume critic for the NYT, Chandler Burr, has given Gucci Envy perfume 5 stars. Read his review of the 1997 perfume here. I’m a fan of “Envy Me” but the green-ness is just a little lean for my body chemistry. A choice quote:
“So what is it? Envy is a green, fresh, modern, abstract innovation, as enigmatic yet compelling as the floating squares of color in a Rothko and as free of conscious information. It may or may not be ageless. We will see. But it is as remarkable and indefinable as an eclipse.”
It’s well suited for the upcoming spring and summer weather, so maybe I’ll give it another sniff. Is it your summer perfume staple? It’s going to be hard for it to displace Dolce & Gabbana’s Light Blue!
Nothing, apparently!
what can displace light blue?
