Salvatore Ferregamo make pretty, feminine fragrance which are usually very affordable. In addition to their Amo perfumes (my review of the Amo range here) they have their Signorina fragrance. The Salvatore Ferragamo Signorina fragrances have a cute bow on their cap, with each fragrance coming in a different shade bottle. There are currently six versions of Signorina available, this article reviews each one.

Table of Contents
In the US you can get the Signorina range from the Salvatore Ferragamo website. In the UK and Europe I recommend Escentual and Amazon.
Signorina
Salvatore Ferragamo Signorina is a fruity floral with sweet undertones. At first a sharp Red Currant provides a fresh opening. This is followed by Peony and Pink Pepper. Pink Pepper isn’t like black pepper at all; Pink Pepper is actually dried berries and has a rose and wood scent.
A Panacotta desert makes up the base note; it isn’t overly sweet and lets the Peony and Red Currant shine.
Signorina Eau de Toilette
Salvatore Ferregamo Signorina Eau de Toilette is a really creamy fragrance. A milky rice base is quite unusual and creates a cashmere feeling. Litchi and Rose provide a fresh, feminine touch which is more noticeable at first.
Signorina Eleganza
Salvatore Ferregamo Signorina Eleganza reminds me a bit of the now discontinued Gucci Flora. A fresh Pear top note combines with Osmanthus and a Patchouli base. The name Eleganza is spot-on because it certainly does have a sophisticated feel to it; I’ve even heard it called a more affordable version of Chanel Coco Mademoiselle.
Signorina In Rosso
Signorina In Rosso follows a trend which has emerged in recent years; a berry top note, Rose and Peony heart and a Patchouli base. In addition, the sweet Panacotta note of the original Signorina is included which works well with the Blackcurrant.
Signorina In Rosso is a good and more affordable alternative to Miss Dior Absolutely Blooming.
Signorina Misteriosa
Salvatore Ferregamo Signorina Misteriosa is a lactonic (aka milky) perfume. A sweet Vanilla Milk is reminiscent of a Vanilla Milkshake but it’s combined with Tuberose and Blackberry to create a feminine scent. The prominent Milk note reminds me of the Cacharel Yes I Am perfumes; check out my article on the range if you like milky perfumes!
Signorina in Fiore
Signorina in Fiore is an affordable Cherry Blossom perfume. The delicate and sweet Cherry Blossom notes are complimented by a fresh Pear Sorbet and Pomegranate top note. The notes blend perfectly to create a pretty and innocent scent.
If you’re a fan of Cherry Blossom perfumes then check out my article on the best ones.
Signorina Ribelle
Salvatore Ferregamo Signorina Ribelle has some of a milky notes of Signorina Misteriosa in the form of a Vanilla and Coconut Ice Cream note. Frangipani and a hint of Orange compliment the sweet base notes to create a fragrance which is fairly strong yet still feminine and sweet.
Signorina Libera
Signorina Libera is the latest release in the range. After an initial blast of sweet bergamot the fragrance develops to become a really modern cashmere scent which is warm and interesting. Personally, I think Signorina Libera is a bit of a dupe for Baccarat Rouge 540 and Ariana Grande Cloud.
Signorina Limited Edition
We have seen a lot of limited edition versions of Signorina (often also called Fashion Editions). These are limited edition bottles but not different scents to their namesake perfume.
