About this deal
But everyone experiences perfumes in their own unique way, and what smells to me may "stink" or repel you because of memories and other factors! This fresh and floral fragrance for men blends subtle notes of Mandarin and Bergamot with the fresh, floral scents of Lavender, Spicy Pepper and Sage.
After maybe 30-60 minutes, it’s almost all lavender and that flowery sage, slight pepper and slight slight tobacco.Aside from these old reminiscences and reformulations, I still believe that this scent is as good today as it once was. Citrus makes a fresh picture, lavender clean - and this beautiful tobacco rounds everything off in a special way! However, if you spray it on clothing, it lasts quite a bit longer and has a fresh out of the dryer quality.
and they made a weak lemony generic faceless scent with some hints of the past just to cheat fame from the legend. I’m fairly new to fragrance, as in trying to understand it and enjoy fragrance like a hobby, but I’ve owned colognes, etc since at least middle school. To my nose it smells a 90% similar as the 1994 Made in Italy (just that tobacco is not as prominent). There has been an evolution [of the brand] since the Nineties, Domenico and I were much younger then — we’ve really matured a lot. I personally don't have an issue with the smell, however I have gotten a comment that it smells like "piss", and I can kind of see where it's coming from.My humble opinion is that it's far less soapy than its French counterpart, and the coumarin/ cumin note makes itself known.
