How is Bright Crystal Absolu different from the original Bright Crystal?

It is an eau de parfum with a stronger, denser composition. The same perfumer added yuzu, pomegranate and icy accords up top and kept raspberry, peony, magnolia and lotus in the heart, over acajou wood, amber and musk.

How long does it last?

It is an eau de parfum, so it lasts longer than the original eau de toilette. Most wearers get several hours on skin, less in hot weather.

Is it a good scent for everyday wear?

Yes. It is a fresh fruity-floral that works for daytime, the office and warm weather. It is not heavy enough for a strong evening statement.

What sizes does it come in?

The fragrance is offered as a 50 ml and a 90 ml eau de parfum.

It leans fresh rather than gourmand, but the raspberry and peony give it noticeable sweetness. Sample it first if you prefer dry florals.

Our take on the Bright Crystal Absolu Perfume

Bright Crystal Absolu is Versace's stronger take on the original Bright Crystal, launched in 2013 and built by perfumer Alberto Morillas. It opens with yuzu, pomegranate and icy accords, moves through raspberry, lotus, peony and magnolia, and settles on acajou wood, amber and musk. The eau de parfum concentration gives it more depth and staying power than the original eau de toilette, which suits anyone who liked Bright Crystal but found it too light. Against other fruity-floral designer scents it leans fresh and clean rather than sweet or heavy.
