Versace Eros Flame by Versace, Add a little spice to your life with Versace Eros Flame, a fragrance for men first released in 2018. The opening of the cologne is dominated by a bittersweet citrus accord of chinotto, mandarin orange, and lemon, complemented with an aromatic hint of rosemary. Bracing notes of black pepper repose at both the top and the heart of the fragrance to add warmth to floral middle notes of geranium and rose. There is an identity crisis of sorts at the base. Vanilla, sandalwood, tonka bean, and patchouli provide an oriental background, while cedar and oakmoss are more indicative of a fougere pedigree. Influenced by classical as well as pop art forms, Italian fashion house Versace was an instant success when it was first founded in 1978. Following the violent death of its founder, his family members continued his legacy by taking on management responsibilities, continuing to offer luxurious clothing and accessories, including fragrances, in his name.
