About Il Bacio

Il Bacio by Marcella Borghese is a captivating perfume for women, originally launched in 1993. This fragrance draws inspiration from the timeless elegance of the Italian kiss, encapsulating romance and passion in a vibrant blend. Perfect for those who appreciate both classic refinement and contemporary charm, Il Bacio Perfume is an exquisite representation of artistic fragrance design that resonates with sophistication.

Fragrance Family:

Floral Fruity

Scent Type:

Crisp, Romantic, Enveloping

Notes:

Il Bacio opens with a delightful bouquet of top notes, featuring the luscious aromas of plum, peach, and pear, complemented by the freshness of green notes. This initial burst of fruity florals creates an exhilarating olfactory experience. At its heart, a romantic fusion of jasmine, lily-of-the-valley, and iris forms a floral tapestry that adds an intoxicating elegance, reminiscent of a blooming Italian garden. The base notes ground this fragrant journey with a warm embrace of amber, musk, and rich sandalwood, offering a creamy and enduring finish that lingers softly on the skin.

Suggested Use

For optimal longevity and a memorable scent experience, apply Il Bacio Perfume to the pulse points - behind the ears, wrists, and at the base of your neck. For a more pronounced effect, spritz lightly on areas like the inner elbows and along the décolleté. Ideal for daytime wear or enchanting evenings, this fragrance transforms any moment into a luxurious escape.

Hey, everyone. Rachel here. And today I'm going to review Il Bacio by Marcella Borghese. This women's scent was released in 1993. And I think it's an interesting example of early '90s fruity fragrances. It opens with a honeysuckle freesia blend supported by notes of jasmine, lily of the valley, and rose, and then heart notes of melon, peach, plum, and passionfruit. Finally, the base consists of musk, amber, sandalwood, and cedar. Well, that's all for now. I hope you liked this review.

Magnificent!!!!!

Il Bacio is an oldie but goodie fragrance. I wore it many years ago, and just recently had the desire to try it again. It is SO unique...when wearing this, you will never smell another like it. It's not something that everyone wears and is recognizable. The drydown is gorgeous...just give it a

few minutes and you will be in heaven!And FragranceX has the best price,[...]. Don't bother to go to other e-tailers, and definitely not a department store where the mark-up is ridiculous.If I could give Il Bacio 10 stars I would! Give it a try, for certain you won't be disappointed, and you'll have everyone asking what you're wearing.

This is a perfume that gets noticed

This is a great buy! I wore it to the office and the first day I walked out of the elevator and I saw a lady following me and when I looked in her direction she was hesitant but she asked me what is that perfume I am wearing and I told her and she said I couldn't help but follow you because I love that smell I have to get that perfume. Two co-workers also noticed and complimented it. So this perfume does get noticed! I love the smell.

Love It!!

I worked for Dillards for a short time and fell in love with it. I tried many brands while working in the the fragrance dept. and it was one of my favorites. Also, it's not readily available everywhere. I believe this is because it is still a family owned business and they are content with what they sell. Many people don't know about it because they don't do a lot of advertising. It's was made in Italy by the Borghese family and I'm guessing it still is. No, I do not represent their line...I had to learn about it as part of my job.

Bottom Line

Yes, I would recommend to a friend.

An Oldie but a Goodie

I've been using this scent on and off for almost 30 years now. I love it. I can wear it at work and it's not overpowering. It is rosie without the sweet and has hints of citrus. There's something about this that pulls you in, I want to say musk but it's so subtle. I just love it. I live in this. You can't find it in stores anymore. It's been my signature scent since the 80's. That's the staying power of a good scent.

Romantic, Mysterious Il Bacio Perfume

This has been my 'signature' fragrance for nearly 20 years and I panicked when I heard Borghese was no longer in business. But apparently a new company now produces my delicious fragrance and I am as delighted as ever with it. I use it daily and always get compliments on it. It is a distinctive fragrance, but not overwhelming. It is one you remember and want more of. xxxx Il Bacio!!

My all time favorite

I first discovered Il Bacio in 1993 it has remained my all time favorite fragrance since then. I was having difficulty locating it through retailers and stumbled upon this site, I was a happy girl when I discovered they carried Il Bacio and even happier with the price!! I have been told the name Il Bacio translates in Italian as "The kiss" I find it to be a very appropriate name for this product. I can't count the number of random people that have asked me what I was wearing throughout the years.
