The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2000 by Versace, Essence Ethereal is a Floral Green fragrance that captures the essence of ethereal femininity. The composition opens with the fresh and delicate scent of wisteria, balanced by peach’s sweet warmth. As it evolves, violet and mimosa introduce a floral complexity, while jasmine and iris provide depth and sophistication. The musky base adds a subtle sensuality, grounding the fragrance in a powdery, white-floral embrace.
Two sprays on pulse points will allow the powdery base to bloom gradually. The fresh top notes fade within an hour, so reapply for a seamless transition from day into evening.
