Is this the same fragrance as Robert Piguet Visa?+−
Yes, V by Robert Piguet is the renamed version of the fragrance formerly known as Visa. While it is a modern interpretation of the 1945 original, it retains the core peach-and-leather identity that made the original famous.
How does this perform in different seasons?+−
This fragrance is most popular in fall and winter. The density of the vanilla, benzoin, and leather notes can feel heavy or overwhelming in the high heat of summer, but they bloom beautifully in cooler air.
Is this a typical "girly" fruity floral?+−
Not at all. While it contains peach and pear, the addition of moss, leather, and patchouli gives it an earthy, sophisticated backbone that is far removed from the sugary-sweet fruity scents found on the mass market.
Is V by Robert Piguet suitable for the workplace?+−
While it can be worn daily, it is generally considered an evening or leisure fragrance. Its potent sillage and sultry character make it better suited for nights out or formal events than a conservative office environment.
