Still waters run deep (and dirty)
This is a completely atypical 'Acqua'. Already the concentration as Eau de Parfum suggests that here no cologne-like or even aquatic freshness is to be expected.
The fragrance starts with a very intense and fruity citrus note, fully ripe and juicy. From the start are also immediately perceive green sprinkles, which come from tarragon. When the fruit calms down a bit, the floral notes come to the fore. The scent becomes sweeter and spicier. At the same time, I detect a sweaty, dirty note that gives it a depth that is rather unusual for Acquas. As the fragrance progresses, florals dominate and the perfume veers towards a high quality spicy soap. With this emphasis, the fragrance then also sounds out.
The floral-soapy finish reminds me distantly of Bogart's One Man Show. Acqua di Portofino serves the same classic oldschool track, supplemented by a juicy-citrus start and thus fully meets my taste. Only the endurance leaves much to be desired. 5-6 hours are okay, but for an EdP but rather below average
