To me , the EDT has a masculine quality to it, almost reminds me of aftershave smell. EDP is amazing , dense yet fresh, a dark coconut mixed with spices, one of my signature scents.
This is def a beast mode fragrance. If you put it on your clothes, you can still smell it even after washing them. I like the dry down much better on the EDP. I don't wear it much, but it is a very unique perfume and I won't get rid of it.
So true! It’s one of the very few fragrances that I can smell on my clothes as if I just sprayed it and it’s the next day! 😦😂 thanks for watching love! 🥰
😆😂 I tried but I think instead of getting to the bottom of it I ended up still confused 🥴😂 so many different places give different notes. The mystery of Crystal Noir! 🤣
@@AmyGlam I think you think good. The coconut note is in the EDP and the fig note is what people might be confusing for coconut in the EDT. You like both of them that’s the downside of be a fraghead. Because we know the notes we appreciate each perfumes more and it makes it hard to choose. Trust me I know. Even if I detect the slightest differences I’m like aaahhhhh i like that 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
The EDP was my signature scent during my music days when I used to play out at bars and clubs at night in an acoustic duo. I would pick up whatever it was that I wore it could be like 3 weeks later and that scent was still so strong and so good. Probably my favorite fragrance of all time. Definitely the strongest perfume I’ve ever owned.
I’m a guy and the EDP is my signature scent. It’s hard to find but I can still get 2021 bottles. The volume percent is now down to 67 down from 77. If anyone is reading this…. The EDP is discontinued yet there appears to be a reformulation. 2020 bottles smell nothing like the last/newer batches. Notes are missing.
Following up, it’s NOT discontinued!! It’s just not available in the United States, like Versace Oud Noir EDP. It’s reformulated, BOTH versions are! The edt is now 78% alcohol instead of 77%. Edt is an ENTIRELY different scent from 2021 onwards, same for EDP. EDP now smells like an older toilette formulation but missing notes.
I just bought the Versace Crystal Noir EDP at my local Beall's store in USA. I returned this today to Beall's because it was 100% Counterfeit. I went to Ulta and Dillard's to compare caps and fragrance. They had only the EDT, but still the scent was a whole lot stronger than the counterfeit. The cap was not authentic. Paint on the box was uneven on the ingredients side. The bottle label on the bottom had a mistake. So definitely counterfeit perfume. So I got a refund. Will wait until I can get it in America or buy it when I go abroad.
I like the EDP version more, it's more complex and subtle; more warmer, spicier, coconutty and creamy (it reminds me very much of my beloved first omnia - the brown one) but the EDT is more prominent, lasts longer, smells stronger and it has something of a fresher aura. They are both very interesting, so much alike but also different. I have them both but I use the EDT more often simply because the EDP doesn't last long and it's sadly a weak fragrance in comparison to EDT (on my skin). To me the bottle is very unique, the color suits the fragrance completely and the big "stone" is beautiful.
I tested them side-by-side, and I really could not tell the difference.. if I smelled my left hand first and then my right, one smelled a bit more coconutty, but then later if I smelled my right hand first and then my left, they switched! They’re really so close it’s hard to tell any difference, the only thing I could figure out was that the EDP was a little bit longer lasting on me!
Im in love with the EDT.. and I don’t usually impressed with the performances of EDTs but this one it’s different.. it stayed on my skin a little longer too..
The EDT smells a lot like bright crystal to me but it changes in the drydown, and I get the coconut. I actually didn't like it in the opening but do like it in the dry down
Fun fact on the Versace crystal fragrances: The medium bottle lids fit the large bottles as it's the same size lids. That's why it looks ridiculously big on the medium bottles.
Thank you for this video! I have the EDT, now I want the EDP. I heard men LOVE the EDP😋 Dolce Garden is a beautiful coconut fragrance. I get a lot of compliments on it.
I love hearing scent perceptions from others because it’s so personal. Versace Crystal Noir EDP has always been a favorite for me. I don’t get the spicy notes at all! I know I’m not nose blind to those notes because I can pick them up in other scents. My husband gets the pepper straight away. He prefers the dry down. I love it throughout. Love your videos!
I love that you did this comparison. Because I've been on the fence of purchasing this fragrance but wasn't sure if I should do edp or edt, 90% of the time I purchase edp on fragrances
God knows I’ve been waiting for this video. This was the first perfume I’ve tried that was an instant love at first sniff (the edt version) I’ll always remember that feeling 😂 it kinda sticks with you. Such an unique, dark, spicy, cold and hard to describe fragrance. The only thing that kept me from buying it that day was that the drydown was a bit too woody for me and made me a little nauseous (it was a super hot and humid morning so maybe that’s why). I’ll have to revisit this gem ASAP.
I'm a guy and I wear the EDP I can spray 2 sprays and the fragrance literally lasts on my clothes for 2 days and I have never gotten more compliments with a fragrance to me it can be a unisex fragrance it just reminds me of warm breezy night out in Miami Beach
I always go back and binge watch your videos. I found the EDT at Ross and watched this video while I was shopping around. As soon as you said the EDT last for hours and you smelled coconut 🥥…. It went in the you’re coming home with me pile..I just sprayed it on and I love it
I would say that EDT is everyday perfume, and EDP could be good date, date night perfume. The EDT has a strong projection just after one spray, the EDP stays closer to the body and has less projection. I like them both, but I will probably keep the EDT due to projection and versatility.
I know this video is old but , yes the edt I put on one spray and it lasted all day . My sister said she smelled me coming through the door it’s just that powerful. That’s my kind of perfume.
This is one of the best perfume review/comparison videos I’ve seen on RUclips. Now I know that if I decide to blind buy Crystal Noir, I will definitely get the EDT, since I’m generally not a fan of very peppery scents.
I own EDT tester and it has the same notes as EDP with cardamon, pepper, orange blossom and coconut listed. This EDT is when it first came out and it has original notes. I wore Cristal Noir when it first came out and it smelled exactly as the tester above with prominent cardamom, ginger, black pepper vibes. But recently it has been re formulated and the notes slightly changed. The new version of EDT doesn’t have cardamom nor coconut but they still smell very similar. I also agree with Amy the edt version is less dense than edp. On me both pull strong orange blossom. Hope it all makes sense 🤷🏻♀️ 🥰
Girl!! I just bought the edt!! Its amazing. Im totally hooked. I love everything about it. And you know what I also Definitely agree with that coconut in the edt. It took me a while to pinpoint but at the 15min drydown you can INDEED get it!! After a looong smell you get the "bark" and the milk, just like you said!! Thank you I feel like a champion now! 😅
Thank you for doing this video!! Finally I found someone that compared the two. I only had EDP and recently went to Macy's to get another bottle and it was EDT--they're definitely not the same scent. I'm sad I couldn't get the EDP. But I'd rather have it in my collection than not.
I had the EDT and loved it but I had to declutter it. I had COVID in January and it was the last perfume I wore before I lost my sense of smell. After I got better and got my sense of smell back, the EDT was so triggering for me. The first time I wore it after I had a full blown panic attack. 😞
I smelled the EDP first on a coworker in 2015 and I had to know what she was wearing. Purchased a set that day. It projected so well I knew she was in the area long before I saw her. It was a lovely clean soapy smell. Sad the EDP is no longer readily available.
I was so excited when I saw this video 😊 thank you so much for doing it and saving me some money 🤣. You explained it so well and it was so helpful but like you said the mystery and confusion will live on. I have the EDT and absolutely LOVE it. After this video I don't feel like I need the EDP at all. To my nose I smell coconut in my EDT and that's what I wanted, it's probably from the fig/frangipani combo you mentioned. Either way the EDT is a LOVE for me. 😊👍🏼👌🏼
I have tried the edp and I never liked it. When I bought a bottle of Versace Dylan blue pour femme I got a 5 ml bottle of crystal noir edt, and oh my god, I love it ❤️ and now a bottle of that one it’s on its way home to me 😆
Thank you Amy for putting out this video on the comparison. I do own the edt and love it for what it is. Now I know I don’t need the edp. I do smell coconut in mine as well.
I haven’t tried the EDP yet, but, on me, the edt smells like a shampoo or something with gingerlily and mint (one of L’Oreal’s Ever Strong lines used to smell similar) PLUS those fruity and woody vibes - AMAZING! It reminds me very much of Jo Malone Dark Amber and Gingerlily, but lasts longer and doesn’t cause a headache like the Jo Malone one tends to when I wear it. I agree that fig can be coconut-y sometimes. CSP’s Coco Figue is a summer favorite of mine because those two notes play so well together! Thanks so much for this comparison and review - very helpful!
I'm so glad you posted this. I literally watched a video today and she suggested this perfume but didn't say if it was EDT vs EDP and I really wanted to know the difference. Love the content on this channel!
Thanks for doing this at last someone helped get an understanding of the differences♥️l've been wearing them both for years but one at a time and never really found the differences🇬🇷
So, let me help clear this up. -The EDP has been discontinued. -And the EDT has been Reformulated, *leaving out the coconut notes*. Its all very confusing. And I think that most people dont realize which one they are smelling (original vs reformulated) and thats where the confusion happens. I have not smelled the new reformulated EDT but the original EDT (which I currently own) definitely has a Strong spicy coconut smell for Sure! You dont have to look for it at all.
Thank you for this video! I bought the edt by accident and was wondering if I really needed the edp. I agree with you, this fragrance is very different and it takes a while get used to. Love your videos!!
I’m glad you enjoyed it! The edt is super long lasting so you don’t need both. Maybe when you finish the edt you can try the edp to see if you enjoy the spicy notes in the opening of the Edp 🥰☺️
I wanted to come here and say thanks for the video because I love (and still love) EDT and wanted to know if I should stay there or give EDP a try, and I decided to stay with what I love. I'm so sad to hear from comments that EDT is being reformulated! I had already purchased a new bottle a while back, but it seems I should snag another (hopefully) original whenever I see it soon...
Hello whats IS edt and edp please ? Because i juste buy the parfum...for thé first Time ...and i dont smell coco...!!! Only something very spicy !!!! I think it a Fake...
This was a great concise review describing the differences between these two fragrances. I smelled them both in Ulta and the EDP almost took me out! Initially I didn’t like the EDT either but when I tried it on my skin I loved it. I need to try the EDP on my skin too before making my final decision on it. Enjoyed the video 🥰
I’m glad you enjoyed it, thank you! 🥰 Yes the edp is very strong and potent. The same thing happened to me with the edt, I had to let it sit and sniff it here and there until I finally fell in love with it 😍 it’s such a unique scent ❤️
@@AmyGlam I like very strong and potent perfumes not the granny kind but the type that u can smell me before you see me and remember me in a sensual way lol would u say the EDP is that!!!!!!! 😏🤔
I've had a dabber of the EDT just sitting on my shelf for a couple months and I couldn't get myself to test it because every time I sniffed it straight out of the bottle, it smelled like lemons and coffee and I didn't like it. Finally got myself to test today and oh my god. The way my opinion has changed. I actually ordered this accidentally thinking I ordered the EDP but I'm so happy with it now and not even worried about not trying the EDP considering that one has Coconut and I'm not crazy about coconut. The EDT smells heavenly like a rainy day where you Step outside and smell the wet flowers and wet pavement and get the slightest spice. I don't get coconut at all and I'm actually very okay with that. Gonna keep testing this fall but I think I will most definitely be adding this to my wishlist.
Thank you. I'm a new subscriber and I am finding your videos are not only lovely to watch but very helpful to newbies to the perfume world like me. Even though I'm decades older than you, I'm coming to trust your mature bearing for a young woman - and your nose. Keep up the good work!
I have the EDP and I love it! ❤️ I got it for the spicy opening. On the dry down I get coconut and gardenia.The gardenia is not flowery, it gives it more of a clean feel. Thank you for this comparison! (*Edit: I actually have the EDT not EDP. I had to check my bottle.🤦😂 I stand by my comment. Still get a bit of spiciness in the opening and a lovely dry down.)
I stumbled upon your channel today, and I have to say you give really well thought out reviews. I have the EDP and I'm scared of running out, but the EDT is something I'll definitely consider when it's time to repurchase.
I got the 2021 version EDT on 1.7oz on sale for 20$ at cvs for a relative and the smell is amazing. I Sprayed it on my jacket so i could smell the perfume and 3 days later it still smells strong. Found the 2023 3.0oz remaked version on cvs for 50$
Now I’m going to be tempted to buy the EDT. I have the EDP but I haven’t reached for it since I first bought it last year. Idk how to feel about it so it’s been sitting since.
Hi Amy!!! I found a great deal on a new edt and I bought it.. I love it so much more than the edp.. although I really havent smelled the edp in a while. I smelled it in sephora and remembered not being crazy about it.. anyways u read my mind with this video ..lol. my husband kept asking me what the differences were...lol. thanks again❤❤❤❤ Oh and we definitely smell coconut in the edt!! Lol
Hi! Yay! Glad you enjoy the edt! I prefer the edt on myself as well. I appreciate the complexity in the edp but I know I won’t wear that one as much as the edt! 🥰❤️
Very helpful review. Thanks Amy❤ I have the EDT which I love and thought to get the EDP when I run out. Now I think I will stick to the EDT. I will never get bored of it. Such a great & unique scent.
Been watching a few of your vids and this one made me subscribe! You did such a great job describing the differences and you made the choice simple for me! :)
I'm new too your channel and i loved how you explaned the differences! I have a tester and i'm now in love with this scent but i did'nt know if i have too buy the edp or edt but thanks too you i know wich one! Thank you so much gorgeous🥰💖💖💖🌺
I think they smell very similar. The only difference I detect is the EDP is a little creamy, and the EDT is more fresh. I smell coconut in both. I prefer the EDP.
I have been looking for a video like this!!! Spent all weekend looking for a good comparison video & I ended up just blind buying the EDT... hope I like it 🤞🏻
I love this fragrance. It’s in my top 3 favorites. Coconut is the star in both! I agree that there is a difference between the two, but I see a subtle difference only. EDT is sharper and fresher at the opening and somewhat through the dry down. I smell the coconut super pronounced from the opening to the end. The EDP is a bit softer at the opening, slightly sweeter and as you said, denser. I get coconut from the opening through the dry down as well. They are both very prominent with coconut and my sister, who takes great interest in perfumes, has confirmed the shining star….coconut, in both as well. Both of these perfumes are delicious and honestly, they are almost identical to me so I love both equally.
I heard people raving about this perfume and when I bought it I HATED it. I didn’t realize a difference between the edt and edp. On first sniff all I smelled was spicy pepper and almost a powdery plastic smell. I was disappointed. If you like the scent though, it does last FOREVER!
great video! i have the edp and get the coconut in it-- its a very soapy coconut though, not a sweet or cloying or gourmand one. i think its because it is a lactonic fragrance overall with sandalwood and gardenia (though not "creamy" like you said). i haven't tried the edt, but i assume it has lactonic qualities in it as well which is why people are so confused over the whole coconut thing.
I thought I was going crazy. When I first time I smelt the EDP was on a sample I took home and I instantly fell in love with it, I became addicted. So to save money I bought the EDT instead. Once I had the EDT I felt like maybe I was confused about what I smelled before. i realize now that I was gaslighting and trying to convince myself that it was the same smell as the EDP. I went to the mall recently and got another sample of the EDP and instantly I had that feeling of falling in love with the fragrance again. I compared the two and realized it’s a stark difference between the two. I personally feel like I should get my money back and they are wrong for selling a EDP with a EDT that is not the same scent.
Just smelled it today, the edt I think. The opening was so soapy and reminiscent of using zest bar soap in the shower. THe dry down is a cool creamy coconut with a very toned down note of zest soap and maybe some warm woods. I’ve heard that the formula changed in 2020 and the smell is more intense with previous formula.
My skin eats any fragrance I put on , so I'm leaning towards the edp. I love the smell of spices I literally open cardamom, pepper, ginger powders just to smell them lol. I just ordered the edp and I cannot wait.
I think it was the edt that i sampled first because i remember liking it… and then the next time i tested it i did NOT like it at all.. must have been the edp that 2nd time 😁
@@mandaxleslie I have tried it a few times at Sephora and liked it but haven’t actually purchased it yet.. but it’s one of those that I know I’ll end up walking out of there with one day. 🤣😂
@@AmyGlam girl I bought the travel size I’m in LOVE. It does something amazing on my skin. Soo delicious and I smell like a marshmallow with a hint of citrus. Just bought the 3.5 oz 😂🤍🤍
This is a great comparison! I believe ScentBox offers the EDT and ScentBird offers the EDP; since I subscribed to both I will test both. I appreciated how in depth you went here!
I have the EDT version and its one of my favourite. Atleast to me, its a sexy scent! And yes surpprisingly this scent last very long! Espacially on clothes. If yall want to get the EDT but broke (lol), fret not! Go get this dupe from ZARA! Its called "Nuit". Its an EDP. I have Zara Nuit and Versace Crystal Noir EDT, and let me tell you that they smell identical!!! And the Zara one do last quite long on me too! 😉
Yeah I don't get coconut at all!For me this is a dark night heavy perfume.Perfect for Autumn or Winter.The duration is pretty discnet.After a while the final smell for me is like smoke😐
Nice video! Crystal Noir edp is my favorite fragrance since 2010. I smell the spices and gardenia, not the coconut. My son, every time he smells it, he gets immediately the coconut. So perhaps it depends on the nose! Love from Greece! 🇬🇷💙
I just gotta say this to all you women out there. I bought the EDP for my wife just now . And men do like the more dark mysterious scent with some spice. I say this though. Dont get a scent for yourself to attract women compliments get a scent to attract mens compliments lol What benefit will it do to attract only womens attention??? Let that sink in. EDP all the way 💯
@@Margie717 the EDP is strong in a good way and it's more complex and when it drys down it changes than when you first sprayed it. In my opinion I bought my wife also the creed adventus for her and compared it to this one here the crystal noir. Still hands down to me as a man the crystal noir EDP was a more sexier scent. And it's cheaper. Haha that should tell you something . Men will definitely like the EDP as do. Myself
Excellent review, thank you for sharing your thoughts. I couldn’t decide between the two due to scent notes being so different, so I bought both and I might end up wearing edp in the colder months and the edt in the spring and summer, because that’s how they seem to vibe . Your thoughts on which one is suited for which season?
my husband just bought me the edp one. he loves it! he went to macy's sniffed it and bought it right away. but im not sure if i like it 😢 .. why does it reminds me of pinesol? 😢😢😢😢 i'll give it a try tho.
🥺🥺 I understand the feeling, here in Puerto Rico it’s hard to get My hands on certain things. I have to search hard for many things. 🥰 Thanks for watching!
Hi! Thank you! Yes, I ordered a table that I needed to set up for filming and it should arrive this week. Once I have that I can start filming makeup videos. I just wanted to give better quality videos 😆😂 so I’ve taken forever to film another makeup video. It’s coming though ❤️🥰
To me , the EDT has a masculine quality to it, almost reminds me of aftershave smell. EDP is amazing , dense yet fresh, a dark coconut mixed with spices, one of my signature scents.
I dont know about EDT but I think EDP has some unisex quality to it. It doesn’t smell extremely feminine to me , i wouldnt mind wearing it 😅
@@gorkemaksy I found that EDT was more unisex than EDP
I agree. The perfume is so much more complex deep and luxurious

Oh no! I’m so sorry about that! I can imagine. I wouldn’t want any fragrance that reminds me of that at all 😩🥺
I smelled the EDP first on a coworker in 2015 and I had to know what she was wearing. Purchased a set that day. It projected so well I knew she was in the area long before I saw her. It was a lovely clean soapy smell. Sad the EDP is no longer readily available.
My signature scent for fall/winter! The EDP is awesome❤️
Have you tried the new ones in a black and gold box and what are your impressions?
@@raderedidisciplina8189i love the black and gold box one. i just got it today, it smells absolutely delightful
I was so excited when I saw this video 😊 thank you so much for doing it and saving me some money 🤣. You explained it so well and it was so helpful but like you said the mystery and confusion will live on. I have the EDT and absolutely LOVE it. After this video I don't feel like I need the EDP at all. To my nose I smell coconut in my EDT and that's what I wanted, it's probably from the fig/frangipani combo you mentioned. Either way the EDT is a LOVE for me. 😊👍🏼👌🏼
I’m glad you enjoyed the video! Yes I feel the same way about the edt.. 🥰 Thanks for watching!
I have tried the edp and I never liked it. When I bought a bottle of Versace Dylan blue pour femme I got a 5 ml bottle of crystal noir edt, and oh my god, I love it ❤️ and now a bottle of that one it’s on its way home to me 😆
Thank you Amy for putting out this video on the comparison. I do own the edt and love it for what it is. Now I know I don’t need the edp. I do smell coconut in mine as well.
I haven’t tried the EDP yet, but, on me, the edt smells like a shampoo or something with gingerlily and mint (one of L’Oreal’s Ever Strong lines used to smell similar) PLUS those fruity and woody vibes - AMAZING! It reminds me very much of Jo Malone Dark Amber and Gingerlily, but lasts longer and doesn’t cause a headache like the Jo Malone one tends to when I wear it. I agree that fig can be coconut-y sometimes. CSP’s Coco Figue is a summer favorite of mine because those two notes play so well together! Thanks so much for this comparison and review - very helpful!
I'm so glad you posted this. I literally watched a video today and she suggested this perfume but didn't say if it was EDT vs EDP and I really wanted to know the difference. Love the content on this channel!
Thank you so much! Glad I can help! 🥰
Thanks for doing this at last someone helped get an understanding of the differences♥️l've been wearing them both for years but one at a time and never really found the differences🇬🇷
I’m glad I can help! Thanks for watching! 🥰
Wow this perfume, EDP version is amazing. I'm in love💕💕 i received mine today and in love at first smell.
Have you tried the new batch in a black and gold box and what are your impressions?
So, let me help clear this up.
-The EDP has been discontinued.
-And the EDT has been Reformulated, *leaving out the coconut notes*.
Its all very confusing.
And I think that most people dont realize which one they are smelling (original vs reformulated) and thats where the confusion happens.
I have not smelled the new reformulated EDT but the original EDT (which I currently own) definitely has a Strong spicy coconut smell for Sure! You dont have to look for it at all.
I just brought the reformulated version and it’s less spicy and some reviewers said it smells like the 2008 version
Gasped when I saw this! Yessss I've been so curious about these and never know which one to get
Yay! Hope my video helped a bit 🥰❤️
Thank you for this video! I bought the edt by accident and was wondering if I really needed the edp. I agree with you, this fragrance is very different and it takes a while get used to.
Love your videos!!
I’m glad you enjoyed it! The edt is super long lasting so you don’t need both. Maybe when you finish the edt you can try the edp to see if you enjoy the spicy notes in the opening of the Edp 🥰☺️
I wanted to come here and say thanks for the video because I love (and still love) EDT and wanted to know if I should stay there or give EDP a try, and I decided to stay with what I love. I'm so sad to hear from comments that EDT is being reformulated! I had already purchased a new bottle a while back, but it seems I should snag another (hopefully) original whenever I see it soon...
Hello whats IS edt and edp please ? Because i juste buy the parfum...for thé first Time ...and i dont smell coco...!!! Only something very spicy !!!! I think it a Fake...
This was a great concise review describing the differences between these two fragrances. I smelled them both in Ulta and the EDP almost took me out! Initially I didn’t like the EDT either but when I tried it on my skin I loved it. I need to try the EDP on my skin too before making my final decision on it. Enjoyed the video 🥰
I’m glad you enjoyed it, thank you! 🥰 Yes the edp is very strong and potent. The same thing happened to me with the edt, I had to let it sit and sniff it here and there until I finally fell in love with it 😍 it’s such a unique scent ❤️
@@AmyGlam I like very strong and potent perfumes not the granny kind but the type that u can smell me before you see me and remember me in a sensual way lol would u say the EDP is that!!!!!!! 😏🤔
@@AmyGlam Have you tried the new batch in a black and gold box and what are your impressions?
@@AmyGlaml
I've had a dabber of the EDT just sitting on my shelf for a couple months and I couldn't get myself to test it because every time I sniffed it straight out of the bottle, it smelled like lemons and coffee and I didn't like it. Finally got myself to test today and oh my god. The way my opinion has changed. I actually ordered this accidentally thinking I ordered the EDP but I'm so happy with it now and not even worried about not trying the EDP considering that one has Coconut and I'm not crazy about coconut. The EDT smells heavenly like a rainy day where you Step outside and smell the wet flowers and wet pavement and get the slightest spice. I don't get coconut at all and I'm actually very okay with that. Gonna keep testing this fall but I think I will most definitely be adding this to my wishlist.
I have the EDP and I love it, it's in my sexy frag group.
🥰🥰🥰
Thank you. I'm a new subscriber and I am finding your videos are not only lovely to watch but very helpful to newbies to the perfume world like me. Even though I'm decades older than you, I'm coming to trust your mature bearing for a young woman - and your nose. Keep up the good work!
I have the EDP and I love it! ❤️
I got it for the spicy opening. On the dry down I get coconut and gardenia.The gardenia is not flowery, it gives it more of a clean feel. Thank you for this comparison! (*Edit: I actually have the EDT not EDP. I had to check my bottle.🤦😂 I stand by my comment. Still get a bit of spiciness in the opening and a lovely dry down.)
🥰🥰🥰
Would you recommend it for summer or is the spicy too warm? I really want a coconut fragrance, beachy vibes!
I stumbled upon your channel today, and I have to say you give really well thought out reviews. I have the EDP and I'm scared of running out, but the EDT is something I'll definitely consider when it's time to repurchase.
Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed it! 🥰❤️
it's my signature scent. for me edp/edt are the same. sophisticated, classy, unique, compliment getter. my scent for life🥰
I got the 2021 version EDT on 1.7oz on sale for 20$ at cvs for a relative and the smell is amazing. I Sprayed it on my jacket so i could smell the perfume and 3 days later it still smells strong. Found the 2023 3.0oz remaked version on cvs for 50$
You nailed this, particularly with the maturity aspect. While wearing the EDP, my son told me I smelled like an old lady
Thank you! 🥰❤️
Oh myy. My mother told me the same thing last week, me being on my 30's and she in her 50's 🤣
Now I’m going to be tempted to buy the EDT. I have the EDP but I haven’t reached for it since I first bought it last year. Idk how to feel about it so it’s been sitting since.
😆 Try a sample to see if you notice a difference between both. I much prefer the edt 🥰
Hi Amy!!! I found a great deal on a new edt and I bought it.. I love it so much more than the edp.. although I really havent smelled the edp in a while. I smelled it in sephora and remembered not being crazy about it.. anyways u read my mind with this video ..lol. my husband kept asking me what the differences were...lol. thanks again❤❤❤❤
Oh and we definitely smell coconut in the edt!! Lol
Hi! Yay! Glad you enjoy the edt! I prefer the edt on myself as well. I appreciate the complexity in the edp but I know I won’t wear that one as much as the edt! 🥰❤️
Very helpful review. Thanks Amy❤ I have the EDT which I love and thought to get the EDP when I run out. Now I think I will stick to the EDT. I will never get bored of it. Such a great & unique scent.
Yes 🥰❤️ They are both unique and totally depends on the person. The edt is my preferred version 🙌🏼
i literally never skip an upload!!!!
Thank you so much! I appreciate the support! ❤️🥰
This was SO helpful for my decision making. Thanks for this Amy. Will get the EDT:) Xxx
Been watching a few of your vids and this one made me subscribe! You did such a great job describing the differences and you made the choice simple for me! :)
Thank you so much! I’m glad I can help! 🥰❤️
I'm new too your channel and i loved how you explaned the differences! I have a tester and i'm now in love with this scent but i did'nt know if i have too buy the edp or edt but thanks too you i know wich one! Thank you so much gorgeous🥰💖💖💖🌺
I think they smell very similar. The only difference I detect is the EDP is a little creamy, and the EDT is more fresh. I smell coconut in both. I prefer the EDP.
I have the EDP as well and I’ve seen a lot of ladies say they wear it in summer. When do you prefer to wear yours?
@@ms.faiththomas4372 I wear it year round.
Which one has the best longevity form your experience?
@@kounelitsa for me it is the EDP, but I hear others say they ger good longevity from the EDT.
I agree I think the edp is more creamy!
I did not care for this fragrance at first, but now I love it. Mine is the EDT.
🥰🥰🥰
I have been looking for a video like this!!! Spent all weekend looking for a good comparison video & I ended up just blind buying the EDT... hope I like it 🤞🏻
Hope you love the edt version! It is still very long lasting and strong! Just doesn’t have those super strong pepper, ginger, and cardamom notes. 🥰
Yessss I want the Edp ! Love the coconut in it ! Getting it for sure
Good afternoon Miss Amy.thank you for this review.take care.much love from Lynwood California ❤️
Thank you for doing this! I have the edp and I love it.
🥰🥰🥰
Thanks for the breakdown between the two. Quick question is the EDT good for summer/spring trying to buy one for mother's day
You couldn’t describe the two fragrances better. Bravissima 👏👏👏❤️
🥰🥰🥰
I love this fragrance. It’s in my top 3 favorites. Coconut is the star in both! I agree that there is a difference between the two, but I see a subtle difference only. EDT is sharper and fresher at the opening and somewhat through the dry down. I smell the coconut super pronounced from the opening to the end. The EDP is a bit softer at the opening, slightly sweeter and as you said, denser. I get coconut from the opening through the dry down as well. They are both very prominent with coconut and my sister, who takes great interest in perfumes, has confirmed the shining star….coconut, in both as well.
Both of these perfumes are delicious and honestly, they are almost identical to me so I love both equally.
Which one would you suggest? Does the EDP has better longevity?
@@kounelitsa I’d say the EDP because it doesn’t have the sharp opening but keeps it’s character throughout. More subtle but pretty.
@@kounelitsa yes edp Haß the longevitx
@Amy Glam thanks for the review. Just blind bought both.
Did you end up liking them?
@@julissavillegas7974 gifted the EDT to my sister and haven’t worn the EDP( I didn’t love it) because I purchased La Nuit Tressor which I Looooove!
I heard people raving about this perfume and when I bought it I HATED it. I didn’t realize a difference between the edt and edp. On first sniff all I smelled was spicy pepper and almost a powdery plastic smell. I was disappointed. If you like the scent though, it does last FOREVER!
The edt smells weak and watery and disappears quickly on me. I need to get the edp. Glad you did this.
Oh wow! The edt is super strong on me, but yes if you need stronger then the edp is the one for you 🥰❤️
great video! i have the edp and get the coconut in it-- its a very soapy coconut though, not a sweet or cloying or gourmand one. i think its because it is a lactonic fragrance overall with sandalwood and gardenia (though not "creamy" like you said). i haven't tried the edt, but i assume it has lactonic qualities in it as well which is why people are so confused over the whole coconut thing.
😆😂 yes this fragrance is definitely a little harder to describe than other scents. I totally see what you are saying. 🥰
@@AmyGlam i watched charlotte ross's video on lactonic fragrances recently and my mind was blown in terms of lactonics haha
I agree 100% with everything you said…. True..I love them both
Versace crystal noir edt is very sophisticated i love it
I thought I was going crazy. When I first time I smelt the EDP was on a sample I took home and I instantly fell in love with it, I became addicted. So to save money I bought the EDT instead. Once I had the EDT I felt like maybe I was confused about what I smelled before. i realize now that I was gaslighting and trying to convince myself that it was the same smell as the EDP. I went to the mall recently and got another sample of the EDP and instantly I had that feeling of falling in love with the fragrance again. I compared the two and realized it’s a stark difference between the two. I personally feel like I should get my money back and they are wrong for selling a EDP with a EDT that is not the same scent.
Omg I've been waiting for this thank you so much I appreciate it😊💖
Thanks for watching! 🥰❤️
What a great review! Thank you for enlightening us
Thank you 🥰
Just smelled it today, the edt I think. The opening was so soapy and reminiscent of using zest bar soap in the shower. THe dry down is a cool creamy coconut with a very toned down note of zest soap and maybe some warm woods. I’ve heard that the formula changed in 2020 and the smell is more intense with previous formula.
I know now which one I’ll be buying.
Which one will you be buying? ☺️
@@AmyGlam EDT...plus the bottle is prettier!
My skin eats any fragrance I put on , so I'm leaning towards the edp. I love the smell of spices I literally open cardamom, pepper, ginger powders just to smell them lol. I just ordered the edp and I cannot wait.
I think it was the edt that i sampled first because i remember liking it… and then the next time i tested it i did NOT like it at all.. must have been the edp that 2nd time 😁
Yea! That opening in the Edp is not for everyone! 😩😂
Just realized I have the EDT and need to try the EPD now. I love it but wouldn’t call it coconut fragrance
It’s such a unique fragrance! 🥰❤️
@@AmyGlam yes!!! My top 5 loves for sure. Random but have you ever tried princess by Kilian????
@@mandaxleslie I have tried it a few times at Sephora and liked it but haven’t actually purchased it yet.. but it’s one of those that I know I’ll end up walking out of there with one day. 🤣😂
@@AmyGlam girl I bought the travel size I’m in LOVE. It does something amazing on my skin. Soo delicious and I smell like a marshmallow with a hint of citrus. Just bought the 3.5 oz 😂🤍🤍
@@AmyGlam oh and I didn’t like it at all on paper
Thanks for doing this one. Thoroughly enjoyed this. I have the EDT and just bought the EDP and plan to do a comparison also.
🥰🥰🥰
This is a great comparison! I believe ScentBox offers the EDT and ScentBird offers the EDP; since I subscribed to both I will test both. I appreciated how in depth you went here!
I got one from Scentbird recently, and it's the EDT version.
@@jenna7770my scent box scent me the EDP
I have the EDT version and its one of my favourite. Atleast to me, its a sexy scent! And yes surpprisingly this scent last very long! Espacially on clothes.
If yall want to get the EDT but broke (lol), fret not! Go get this dupe from ZARA! Its called "Nuit". Its an EDP. I have Zara Nuit and Versace Crystal Noir EDT, and let me tell you that they smell identical!!! And the Zara one do last quite long on me too! 😉
I never thought there would be a dupe for this fragrance! Thanks for letting us know! 🥰
@@AmyGlam Hehe no problem dear!💖
Yeah I don't get coconut at all!For me this is a dark night heavy perfume.Perfect for Autumn or Winter.The duration is pretty discnet.After a while the final smell for me is like smoke😐
Nice video! Crystal Noir edp is my favorite fragrance since 2010. I smell the spices and gardenia, not the coconut. My son, every time he smells it, he gets immediately the coconut. So perhaps it depends on the nose! Love from Greece! 🇬🇷💙
Wow that’s awesome! I love how you pick up certain notes and your son can pick up the coconut! 🥰❤️ fragrance is so much fun
Have you tried the new batch in a black and gold box and what are your impressions?
I just gotta say this to all you women out there. I bought the EDP for my wife just now . And men do like the more dark mysterious scent with some spice. I say this though. Dont get a scent for yourself to attract women compliments get a scent to attract mens compliments lol
What benefit will it do to attract only womens attention??? Let that sink in.
EDP all the way 💯
Is the edp to strong or what is your take on edp?
@@Margie717 the EDP is strong in a good way and it's more complex and when it drys down it changes than when you first sprayed it. In my opinion I bought my wife also the creed adventus for her and compared it to this one here the crystal noir. Still hands down to me as a man the crystal noir EDP was a more sexier scent. And it's cheaper. Haha that should tell you something . Men will definitely like the EDP as do. Myself
I’ve just purchased the EDT after many years and the box is black and gold now… is it a new formulation??
Excellent review, thank you for sharing your thoughts. I couldn’t decide between the two due to scent notes being so different, so I bought both and I might end up wearing edp in the colder months and the edt in the spring and summer, because that’s how they seem to vibe . Your thoughts on which one is suited for which season?
Thank you! I agree! The edp is more of a cooler weather fragrance to me and the edt is beautiful year round 🥰
Thanks for doing the comparison!
🥰🥰🥰
my husband just bought me the edp one. he loves it! he went to macy's sniffed it and bought it right away. but im not sure if i like it 😢 .. why does it reminds me of pinesol? 😢😢😢😢 i'll give it a try tho.
Thanks a lot ☺️ I will go for the EDP 😍💕
The notes for the EDT on Fragrantica confuse the hell out of me. I swear all I still smell is black pepper, gardenia, and coconut
😂😂😂
The are confusing with a lot of the notes on fragrances it’s annoying
I looove the parfum of this fragrance and it is so difficult to find here in the UK
🥺🥺 I understand the feeling, here in Puerto Rico it’s hard to get My hands on certain things. I have to search hard for many things. 🥰 Thanks for watching!
really?? very easy to find it in Poland❤🇵🇱 It's everywhere 😁
Same here but I just checked it's on a few sites now. It's on Notino 20% and free delivery. It's like £19 for 30ml!
Try fragrance direct!
Hi beauty! I like this one but I find it better suited for colder months .. I may be the only one though lol I have the edt🖤
I agree with you! I wouldn’t mind wearing it during summer in the evening but I think I prefer it in cooler weather too. 🥰
Your makeup looks great! Gorgeous! Do you think you’ll ever do a GRWM and show us your makeup look? 😍
Hi! Thank you! Yes, I ordered a table that I needed to set up for filming and it should arrive this week. Once I have that I can start filming makeup videos. I just wanted to give better quality videos 😆😂 so I’ve taken forever to film another makeup video. It’s coming though ❤️🥰
SO helpful. Just got the EDT and quite like it but it's not a love. Still too spicy, bordering on masculine in my view.
I only have the edp and coconut verbena is the only thing that comes to my mind. I might need to get the edt to try it.
🥰🥰🥰
