Eros

Eros by Versace EDT – Will's Review

Versace Eros is one of the most iconic designer fragrances of the 2010s. Loud, sweet, and unapologetically bold, it was designed to turn heads—and that’s exactly what it does. It’s a scent built around seduction, confidence, and high-energy nightlife.

The opening is instantly recognizable: a powerful blast of mint, green apple, and lemon. It’s fresh, bright, and slightly sharp. That freshness is quickly met with a wave of sweetness—thanks to the heavy dose of tonka bean and vanilla, which dominate the heart and base.

As it dries down, the scent becomes smoother and warmer, blending ambroxan, cedarwood, and vetiver into the mix. But make no mistake: the sweetness stays front and center. The tonka and vanilla make this scent cozy and sensual but can also come off as cloying if overapplied.

Performance is one of Eros’s defining traits. It projects strongly and lasts 8–12 hours easily, especially on skin or clothing. It’s built for attention and gets compliments, particularly in colder weather or nightlife settings.

The bottle is striking—emerald green with a Medusa head and gold accents. It’s flashy, like the scent itself, and has become as iconic as the fragrance inside.

Overall, Eros is a staple for those who love loud, sweet, long-lasting fragrances. It’s not subtle or refined—but it was never meant to be. If you want something bold and flirtatious, Eros delivers exactly that.

Best suited for: Fall/winter, clubs, nights out, parties, colder weather.
