Possibly Julio as well, although he tends to have girls pursuing him. This trope would probably fit (the fictional) Don Juan better. Note: It should be mentioned that even after the affairs were over, most of Casanova's ex-lovers still liked him. The comparatively rarer female version is traditionally called a Man Eater. See More Friends, More Benefits for when the mechanics of a game encourage the player character to act this way. If he develops feelings for one of his conquests ( or someone who refuses him), he's a Ladykiller in Love. If the guy is actually only rumored to be a Casanova and has no evidence onscreen, it's the Urban Legend Love Life. wasn't.įor the juvenile version-all of the above without the sex-see Kidanova.

Many films, TV movies and TV mini-series are named for and based on that person. ( Definitely he was no Heath Ledger.) Interesting and prone to be noted for his modern wannabes, he was one of the few 18th century men who bathed almost daily and asked the same thing from his partners. just with women who were locked in loveless political marriages - and also gained his successes famously ugly. It should be noted that the historical Casanova was closer to a Chivalrous Pervert who really was looking for love. The trope is named for Giacomo Girolamo Casanova (1725-1798), a soldier, spy, diplomat and adventurer whose extensive but unreliable autobiography established his eternal fame as a lover. A Handsome Lech has more negative connotations and a sparser scorecard than the Cassanova. If they really get around but want to settle down it's Looking for Love In All the Wrong Places. The Charmer is equally charming but less sex-obsessed. If kind-hearted, may overlap with Chivalrous Pervert. A guy who gets the girls like a Casanova, but unintentionally, is a Chick Magnet.
Compare with the inexplicable Kavorka Man. Casanova's only motivation is indulging his Lust and desire, sating them with the bodies of his conquests.Ĭontrast with the unsuccessful Casanova Wannabe. Sometimes comic, sometimes a monster, always successful this character leaves behind a string of broken hearts and (occasional) vows of Revenge.
