Not extraordinary, but good!
With this new eau de toilette from Acqua del Garda, I was particularly attracted by the name. Juniper and cedar seemed to me to be guarantors for a perhaps not revolutionary, but fresh spicy, probably rather masculine scent. In the context of Black Friday it was reduced, so it was time for a blind purchase.
I have not regretted it, if Ginepro e Cedro comes across differently than I expected. The juniper is dominant in the beginning, but is soon slightly sweetishly underlined by Tonka. The cedar gives it a very pleasant spicy, yet clearly aquatic freshness that lasts until the end. However, contrary to expectations, Ginepro e Cedro is not woody or zietric. The later musk even adds a very fine powdery note, which clearly turns the fragrance towards unisex. But this is not wrong at all.
The whole thing is very well balanced. As always with this brand, nothing stings or disturbs. If you are looking for something extraordinary, exciting, you will not find it. But if you are looking for an unexcited, very clean and well-made spicy newcomer, this is the place to go. And all this at a price that is really more than fair for this quality. Clear recommendation! Acqua del Garda has convinced me once again.
