Our take
What does Yellow Diamond smell like?
Released in 2011, Yellow Diamond continues Versace’s line of luminous florals, in a bottle cut like a gemstone. The opening is fresh and tart: lemon, bergamot, neroli and a juicy pear sorbet. The heart brings together orange blossom, freesia, mimosa and water lily in a clear, slightly watery and powdery bouquet. Soft amber, musk and guaiac wood in the base stay light and leave a clean, warm trace. It is a sunny, radiant scent designed for summer days, favouring cheerfulness over depth. The pear, in particular, gives it a thirst-quenching, cheerful quality, and the mimosa adds a faint powdery softness as it settles.
When to wear it
Wear it in summer, during the day or on holiday. It suits young women who love fresh, fruity scents.
It belongs to the Floral family. Yellow Diamond is one of 7 creations by Versace in our encyclopedia.
