Versace The Dreamer is an Eau de Toilette launched in 1996. The Dreamer opens with Juniper, Tarragon, and Artemisia, settles into a heart of Flax, Iris, and Lily, and dries down to a base of Amber and Tobacco Blossom. Versace's The Dreamer carries a Favourite verdict, a white floral-led wear.

A divisive, love-it-or-hate-it kind of fragrance, Versace's The Dreamer is an unashamedly floral masculine scent that’s soft, unique, and surprisingly affordable. Its fleeting nature often sees it relegated to a bedtime scent, but for those who love its distinctive character, it’s a modern classic.

About

Opens with a distinctive blend of herbaceous tarragon and juniper, quickly softening into a gentle, powdery floral heart of iris and lily. A subtle, unique tobacco blossom emerges, underlaid by a warm amber, creating a clean, slightly soapy, and comforting dry down that evokes freshly laundered sheets or a romantic garden at dusk.
