For my O fragrance today I put on Omnia Crystaline body lotion. It was my first time wearing it and I have not worn the edt or edp. It is listed one place as a floral-aquatic and someplace else as a fresh floral Oriental. The aquatic notes in this are very nice and it is a very pleasant fragrance to wear. What are your thoughts? I would have never tried it if someone hadn't sent me a sample of the lotion. Is the juice as nice ?

I got a compliment on this fragranced body lotion yesterday. A friend of ours ( she's in her late 30's ) passed by me and came in closer to me and breathed in deeply and said " Wow, you smell so good ! " I found this fragrance very wearable. I would love to know what the juice is like.

Hello Rita,

I don't know how is the body lotion. I worn the fragrance last summer, on me the top note (pear, lotus) fades within 20 minutes and all the rest is white musk. It did smell lovely though.
It was marketed in asia I think, just like the newer Omnia Amethyst (which is more aquatic, iris and grapefruit themed and cheaper smelling to me).

I had a sample and it reminded me of Santal Blanc by Serge Lutens. not really what I like but I thought it was a nice fragrance.

I sniffed this on Saturday - I went to Nordstrom (two of them!) to get my Anne Pliska Sat (the first one didn't have it!) and when I bought the Anne Pliska, a SA was handing out scent strips and she said it was called "Crystalline" - I sniffed it and really liked it. It's a very fresh smelling floral perfume. I was surprised, because I had a hard time smelling the original Omnia- I thought I must be slightly asnosmic to something in it- I couldn't smell it after 5 minutes of spraying it on, at Sephora. Not the Crystalline! It's very pretty.

This one is a new love for me, I've consumed nearly a full bottle. I discovered it last September at a perfume outlet store and was smitten. I love the smell of isopropyl alcohol, a throwback from childhood when my favorite smells were jet fuel, alcohol, tar and my Mother's Youth Dew - it's a wonder I didn't permanently fry my neurons. The smell of tar makes me nauseous now, I still love jet fuel but only for an instant, but I've never outgrown my love of isopropyl alcohol. I was sampling the Bulgari's and HAD to bring the Crystalline home with me. For me it's a form of wearable isopropanol, hiding beneath a tasteful, sophisticated crystal veil. The steamier the temperature, the better it gets, like a cooling alcohol rub. There's something very "Grace Kelly" about it, dry and highbrow.

Thank you for your impressions. I will have to try out the fragrance itself. Though I would highly recommend the body lotion because it really lasts quite awhile. This would be a great fragrance for the office setting.
