Avant-garde, eclecticism and revolutionary ideas have become integral attributes of the works of the famous designer John Galliano. Perfumes also do not stand aside and fully fall under the aforementioned characteristics. Designer fragrances have appeared not so long ago. In 2008, the first perfume was released and collected a huge amount of rave reviews. Even despite some contradictory opinions and descriptions, the designer's work became an event and led to the creation of a number of other fragrances. At the moment, about 10 compositions are presented on the Russian market, one of which is the men's Before Midnight. Controversial, judging by the reviews and perception, perfumes still found their admirers. They are as extraordinary, unique as the personality itself, and the creations of the designer. When choosing an expensive perfume for yourself, do not focus only on reviews. "John Galliano" - spirits that should first be evaluated in a sampler or test application. This will be the key to a new successful acquaintance with the designer's fragrances.
2008 John Galliano Perfume
The very first perfume from John Galliano was a reflection of the eccentric and unique image of the couturier. This is a floral-aldehyde composition created in 2008 by Christine Nagel and Aurélien Guichard. The bottle is made in the Gothic style. It resembles a woman's silhouette in haute couture.
John Galliano (perfume) opens with notes of rose, bergamot and lavender. Heart accents of iris, peony and violet evoke a magical mood and are associated with sensuality and luxury. Amber and patchouli in the trail of the perfume once again emphasize the originality and mystery of the female image.
Warm and quite complex in composition and perception, eau de parfum is considered universal. She is able to adapt to the mood, time, place and occasion. Users characterize it as expensive, refined, penetrating, original and extraordinary. In some reviews, it is called "the smell of incense" or "heavy". In any case, you need to get used to the image with this perfume in order to feel all its undertones and highlights of the mood.
2010 John Galliano Eau de Toilette
This is a floral fragrance with strong rose accents. Many call it powdery. Perfumer Aurelien Guichard created it for the house of Galliano in 2010 as a lighter and more ephemeral version of the first in the Eau de Toilette format. This was the second fragrance from the famous designer. Like the first composition "John Galliano", the perfume turned out to be bright and extraordinary. It is perfect for the summer season. It combines overflowsclassic and Moroccan rose, cedar, Italian iris and moss.
Users mark eau de toilette as very persistent with a medium to strong intensity of the composition. The fragrance is called gentle, sweet, "ageless", "retro". It is very difficult to find this perfume on sale, it is extremely popular. Since the water is very resistant, with a pronounced accent, some recommend applying it to the tip of the scarf, the length of the hair, the bottom of the clothes so that it does not irritate, but gently “sillage”. This is how he most beautifully reveals the composition.
2011 Parlez-Moi d'Amour Eau de Parfum
Flower-fruity perfume became the third creation of a line of fragrances under the name of John Galliano. It was released in 2011, immediately following the previous composition. Both the translation of the name “Tell me about love” and the mood of the perfume are fully consistent with what has been said. The top notes of raspberry, mandarin and blueberry hint at a heady summery sweetness. The heart, wrapped in jasmine, lavender and rose, gently fades into a sillage along with final undertones of vanilla, vetiver and patchouli.
Users call this fragrance persistent, sweet, joyful, laughing. It differs from the first compositions under the name "John Galliano". The perfume is playful and seductive, beautifully "sounds" on the skin. Some characterize it as “childish”, “shower gel”, but despite this, it is guaranteed to give a light and flirty mood.
2012 Parlez-Moi d'Amour Encore Eau de Toilette

It belongs to the floral-fruity category. The fragrance has woody, powdery and sweet notes. Eau de toilette in a purple bottle from John Galliano (reviews allow us to come to such conclusions) has earned the status of an unusual, intriguing one. It reveals itself very interestingly on the skin, it is difficult for many to decompose it into notes. Overall a strong, cool and classy fragrance.

Parlez-Moi d'Amour By Night 2015
Flower-fruity "night fragrance" in a black bottle gives pronounced notes of fresh and spicy mood. The composition consists of notes of ginger, blueberry, bergamot, rose, jasmine, patchouli, musk and cypress. The release was limited, so it is difficult to draw unambiguous conclusions. Users notemedium longevity of perfume. They call his composition "an amateur" and recommend it for ladies aged due to excessive sweetness and cloying. Well, how many users, so many opinions. This composition from John Galliano (perfume in the form of eau de toilette) is no longer represented on the Russian market, and we can only wait for the next releases from the fashion house.
The line of fragrances, presented under the name of the English designer, has a number of conflicting reviews.
