A celebration of womanhood

A wonderful, rich, baroque kind of scent with warm, enveloping notes. Extremely well constructed, opulent, radiant. A celebration of womanhood and a scent which is utterly disarming - I think there's hardly any man who could resist it. The first deep sniff you take of it will tell you about the outstanding quality of this perfume. Think of Coco by Chanel, the sadly discontinued vintage Venezia by Laura Biagiotti or the deep, calm and beautiful Sacrebleue by Parfums de Nicolai and you'll get the idea...but Anonimo Veneziano is even better!

I prefer Bal à Versailles

I've worn Nobile 1942 ANONIMO VENEZIANO a few times and continue to be struck by what seems initially (upon application) to be the similarity to Jean Desprez BAL A VERSAILLES. Big sillage, oriental, labdanum amber, patchouli, spiciness (from ylang?). ANONIMO actually seems somewhat leathery and dark, though I do not know what would account for that in the above notes.

In a side-by-side comparison to BAL A VERSAILLES, I have to report that the cheap-o bargain-bin (tester for $11, yep) bottle of reformulated BAL A VERSAILLES edt won out against ANONIMO VENEZIANO, which seems sharper and less smooth. BAL A VERSAILLES has more of a golden amber quality and less stridency, for lack of a better word. In terms of sweetness and patchouli level, they are very similar, but I have to say that BAL A VERSAILLES seems to me like a better perfume.

Sorry nichies (not Nietzsche)! I guess that when you reformulate a perfume which started out with 350 different essences, then even if only a fraction of those survive, it's still going to be a decent creation. I understand why people find ANONIMO VENEZIANO appealing--and I do not mean to suggest that I do not--but now that I've compared it side-by-side with BAL A VERSAILLES, I realize that I won't be adding a bottle to my collection.

Why?
