Another Cologna fragrance...
I sprayed it on and wanted to know if it was anything. Actually, I just wanted to write a statement, but as there is only one review of it so far, I think that a second one might be helpful for one or the other potential buyer...
I personally find it very similar to many other fragrances in this genre of colonias, intensas and co.
The citric is okay, although unfortunately it seems partially(!) artificial, which always triggers this slight toilet duck theme for me.
There are citrics and citrics: some are quite good at creating a good natural freshness with citron or grapefruit or seeds, others have this unnatural citric. Here, it's not harshly synthetic, but a little, which I would actually like to see a little differently in fragrances in this price range.
It is also fresh and has what it wants to be, namely the characteristics of a cologne.
The sweetness is rather subtle, but also lingers in the scent, which recedes and evaporates more and more with each passing hour. I think you should have the flanker in your desk drawer at the latest after lunch during your lunch break on a hot day if you still want to have some of the scent in the afternoon.
I detect a little (but only a little) of the pepper very slightly, the woodiness in the base is definitely there, the musk fixes the freshness somewhat, but rather restrained.
The citrus becomes duller, sweeter and rounder over time and this sweetness reminds me a little of sweet Italian pastries (at least thematically appropriate).
If any of you are looking for a citrusy cologne companion for summer, there's no end.
For me, Colonia Intensa Eau de Cologne is close to this, but I think it's simply better made. It's more of a mass product nowadays and is certainly more common than ArteOlfatto, but for me it's primarily about the scent and what I actually want: a fresh, citrusy eau de cologne (yes, this is officially a perfume, I know, but it's not as long-lasting). In this respect, I would be "out" here with Paropamiso.
