Bvlgari BLV is an Eau de Toilette launched in 2000, created by Alberto Morillas. BLV opens with Bergamot and Ginger, settles into a heart of Wisteria and Flax, and dries down to a base of Black Locust, Musk, Sandalwood, and Vanilla. Bvlgari's BLV carries a Favourite verdict, a floral-led wear.

This Y2K classic is a love-it-or-hate-it affair, a unique blend of fresh spice and powdery calm. It's divisive, with some finding it a soapy mess and others hailing it as a masterpiece. If you're after something truly different, BLV might just be your overlooked gem.

Scent Profile

Composition

Timeline

Showing: Overall Blend

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

BLV kicks off with a zesty ginger-bergamot blast, bright and invigorating. It then settles into a heart of delicate wisteria and flax, lending a soft, clean, and subtly powdery floral character. The dry down is a warm embrace of musk, sandalwood, and a whisper of vanilla, creating a comforting yet intriguing finish. It’s a study in contrasts: cool and warm, sharp and soft, fresh and powdery.
