Serpentine for women by Roberto Cavalli, 2005

Today I'm reviewing this sexy floriental composition by Roberto Cavalli launched in 2005. This one is called Serpentine, and takes the Italian brand's obsession with animal forms to the next level by encasing it within a beautiful glass bottle adorned with slithering golden snakes. This fragrance really caught my attention due to the fact that it's a modern fragrance that feels well aged and embodies classic elegance and glamour. Think 1950s, Hollywood starlet glam...It starts off with a floral punch delivered by gardenia and mango blossom that only intensifies with the passage of time. When first sprayed the herbal greenness of artemisia is strong but quickly fades to a more intense floral core. The heart is an exotic blend of tirade flower and jasmine that stays strong and dominant. Violet leaf gives a very subtle metallic note that could be the smell of gold. Sweet ambery tones of tolu balsam harmonize with sandal wood and build a sensual oriental base. The fragrance does full justice to its poetic serpentine symbolism representing fertility, transformation,rebirth and sensuality.
