Venezia Pastell...Hi and sorry for the late reply. <br /><br />Venezia Pastello is a completely different perfume. It's a "flanker", meant as a new perfume using the name and design of a best-seller to coat-tail on its success (hope I'm getting my idioms right). The Pastello is an airy floral fruity, slip of a thing; a happy and not too serious girl. The original Venezia is an oriental, deep.
