by Ursula Wandel

Cerruti Image is an Eau de Parfum launched in 1998, created by Ursula Wandel. Image opens with Banana, Pepper, Plum, and Pear, settles into a heart of Jasmine, Fig Leaf, Cypress, and Guaiac Wood, and dries down to a base of Vetiver, Sandalwood, Patchouli, and Musk. Cerruti's Image carries a Favourite verdict, a woody-led wear.

This late 90s freshie is a certified underrated gem. Despite its low price, Image delivers a unique, clean, fruity-woody vibe that's surprisingly sophisticated and far from dated. It's a crowd-pleaser that punches above its weight.

Best Seasons

Best For:
Spring Summer

A warm-weather pick - at its best in summer and spring.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Office Casual Sport
Also Works:
Date

Its clean, fresh, and often subtle sillage makes it perfect for office, casual, and sport settings where you want to smell good without shouting about it. While pleasant for a date, its lack of significant projection means it won't be a showstopper, and the distinctly fresh approach isn't ideal for formal events.

About

Image opens with a delightfully soft, abstract fruitiness, blending juicy pear and plum with a subtle banana leaf greenness and a touch of black pepper. This leads into a heart of fresh cypress and fig leaf, grounded by a clean, smooth woodiness from guaiac wood, vetiver and cedar. The drydown settles into a soft, musky-woody aroma, reminiscent of an exquisite, natural soap.
