Versace is one of the leading international fashion brands of Italian luxury products. It was founded in 1978 by Gianni Versace. The brand is known for its maximalist, bold prints, embodied by its iconic Medusa logo.
The first Versace scent was Gianni Versace for Women, launched in 1981. The brand has since expanded its fragrance line, launching numerous options for both men and women. Here are some of the best Versace fragrances, in my humble opinion, to come out since then.

Versace Pour Femme Dylan Turquoise is a sun-drenched paradise, like a dip in a sparkling blue pool, opening with a splash of citrus and a hint of salty air. The overall scent is pure, clean, and undeniably summery.
While the scent might not be groundbreaking, Dylan Turquoise is a perfect everyday fragrance for those hot, sunny days. It is composed of citrusy florals with a woody base, reminiscent of an expensive shampoo. And the gorgeous Versace bottle is a work of art in itself!

Versace’s The Dreamer is praised for its unique, slightly sweet, and aromatic scent, particularly its prominent tobacco and amber notes. It is the one that stands out most on this list.
The Dreamer is a good everyday fragrance, especially for cooler weather. While it can be worn year-round, it is best suited for fall and spring, when the weather isn’t leaning to any extreme. While it was initially launched as a men’s scent, I find it leans unisex, making it a suitable choice for anyone who appreciates a classic fragrance.
