Riflesso Blue Vibe vs Blue Vibe limited edition

[SculptureOfSoul]

Curious if anyone has tried both Riflesso Blue Vibe and Blue vibe limited edition? On Fragrantica there are people saying they're both the same and others who say they're different, and I'm hoping to confirm one way or the other as the limited edition is very hard to find.

Wasn't aware that there was a Limited Edition. Have only tried the original which wasn't for me. Comparing the notes online, they would seem to be different.

I had no clue this even existed. A quick check of the notes and some reviews over at Fragrantica, it's related to Blue Vibe but diverges pretty quickly at the mid to base notes. Thanks for putting this on my radar. Trusardi Rilflesso was a surprising inexpensive scent that's staying in my current rotation.

I have a sample of Blue Vibe Limited edition which I really love. It reminds me of Trump Empire (a severely underrated fragrance for obvious reasons) and a bit of 212 VIP but in wonderfully tropical fruity way. Citrus modulated by the thickness of a slightly green banana note, some vague tropical-fruit+floral accord (it's actually really pleasant and I enjoy that it doesn't smell of one identifiable fruit or flower), over a dry and slightly salty abstract woods.

It doesn't smell the same but reminds me a bit of Fleur de Liane (tho that was more "humid tropical flowers") or Memos Vaadhoo (which has an awesome tropical fruit and floralcy that is ruined by a weird scratchy oud) but more bare bones and to the point. Uncomplicated and truly a simple joy, which is exactly what I'm looking for in a tropical summer scent.
