I get tons of delicious nutmeg mixed with vanilla (nutmeg is always amazing when paired with something creamy, either sweet or savory), and it's harmony with the nuttiness from the walnut and wood is brilliant. There is some tuberose and jasmine to create an element of poise. I don't smell peony or bergamot, but this is still somehow fresh enough to not sit heavily on the skin. It's a fully-formed concerto of notes; enough uniqueness to be intriguing, classy without being uppity, and warmly seductive without being overtly provocative. Such an elegant scent! It opens up a bit sharp and powdery but as the day progresses it becomes more and more woody and soft. I love it. It's complex and unique, and doesn't feel dated at all.

Organza opens with slightly sweet white florals, laced with a hint of warm spice. There is a hint of greenness which complements the florals beautifully, adding some stem-like freshness to the bouquet. There is very little citrus to my nose.

Just got this today- my blind buy, I like it a lot- GREAT for vanilla lovers. Has a classic-yet-modern smell to it. Organza is a perfect mix of florals and vanilla with soft spice and wood accords. It has a grounded quality, but also an ethereal touch that strives towards the skies. It combines strength with delicacy, directness with subtlety. Wearing it enhances my well-being and confidence - it's the cherry on top of the cake. Golden, soft, sophisticated, warm. Why do I spend so much money sampling expensive niche perfumes when unique, powerhouse perfumes were already here?" I dug out my little pure parfum bottle of Organza the other day. I hadn't worn it in quite awhile. I was wearing my much loved Avon Tomorrow and wanted to do a side by side comparison with Organza.

Let's face it the 90's were the best decade to produce some great fragrances,and this floriental sits perfectly. I'm glad I waited for the vintage juice, but also relieved I did not pay a high price. I see many bottles of the vintage but the prices - sheesh! That being said, I have been complimented many times on this, in part, I think, because it simply projects and lasts for ages, and it’s pleasant to smell. This fragrance has no equal in the world of perfumes! It is almost forgotten and very overlooked, yet it is a masterpiece that should be on a pedestal.

I am so torn. I enjoy the opening, the exhilarating green jasmine is what I focus on, and I willingly swoon under the emphatic wave of gardenia. I like the nutt(meg)iness. Something is not right though. It might just be that the tuberose is too buttery-tangy for me. Cloyingly powder sweet, like a residue. Will try again in winter. Current formula. I think there is some confusion between this perfume and the flanker Organza Indecence, which is an equally lovable spicy-woody-vanilla. Givenchy used to make big opulent perfumes, and Organza certainly is opulent. There's a tiny hint of spice to O, which makes the florals more interesting.The current version is more linear vanillic and less musky floral compared to the vintage, but it is still recognizably Organza. Vintage reigns supreme, but I wouldn't say the contemporary formula is a complete disaster either. It's love either way.
