A growing appreciation
The first time I tried this fragrance on my skin, I was not impressed. It smelled a bit cheap, and synthetic. I was, however, in a perfume store at the time. After leaving, a few hours later, I noticed a very appealing scent that followed me. I sniffed the usual spots where I had applied my samples, and found that THIS fragrance was the one I was smelling. I went back to the store and bought a bottle. I got it home, and my first day wearing it, it smelled a bit different without all of the competing scents. I liked it, but I did not love it. I put it kind of in the back of my collection. I used it very rarely because it never jumped out at me as something the would be OUTSTANDING for the occasion. Then, this fall (2022) after 2 years of having the bottle, I tried it again. I had been classifying it as more of a summer scent before, and had only worn it in warm weather. When I put it on in the cool of fall, and went about my day, the fragrance opened up ENTIRELY DIFFERENT. I was drawn to the scent.
The florals smelled less flat, and instead I can smell the complex bouquet of the various floral notes. The apricot and cedar wood offer this spicy sweetness to the backbone of the scent, and the amber melts the florals and this spicy sweetness together with just a hint of oud in the background to add a slightly wild untamedness to the overall character of the scent.
I am falling in LOVE with this scent this fall. It evolves slightly throughout the day as I wear it, but the projection is enough that I can constantly get full (but not overwhelming) wafts of the scent as I move throughout my day.
The scent is reassuring, and beautiful. I feel composed, confident, intriguing, complex, and a bit mysterious as I move around and leave the trail of this fragrance behind me. The more I wear this scent in the cooler weather, with my autumn attire and colors, the more I fall in love.
I TRULY recommend this scent, but do yourself a favor and keep it for fall, early winter, and ealry cooler spring days... these are the times when it TRULY shines.

Impressing
The feminine impression of the bottle aroused my interest when I switched from buying glasses to local perfumery. It's so new in the turquoise squad, the prices weren't even in the system. Sweetly sniffed from the outside, seemed almost bouquet-like to me! After spraying it looked different...

So much suede and cedar wood! After the original impression came like a blow into the pit of the stomach. After the first minutes some other notes came up, some blue rain and a little lemon. I thought Amber and Ambra were identical, but this time I think Amber means Bernstein. Supposedly a mixture of benzoin, vanilla, styrax and fir. Sweet, resinous, warm, cozy. The scent's none of it. That doesn't have to mean anything bad, years ago I had a Pure Leather bottling. Uomo is similarly leathery-smoky. Very good Very strong! So be careful with it. Held me a little over seven hours.

So:
Cedar and suede in the goose-step, while the weakening rest lags behind.
Very peculiar. Statementduft? At least it's conspicuous.

Who invented it...?
Got the bottle as a gift. At first I was a little thoughtful ! Gisada? What on earth is that?
After I put a sprayer on my wrist, it was clear that this is not an 0815 perfume. The complexity for more niche fragrance than designer bottle.
Once the perfume has calmed down after application, the true quality from Ricola Land presents itself!
Starting from absolute fruitiness (strongly apricot) over hearty wood, which ends in the amber-, suede final an absolute all-rounder.
Very well received in the office as well as in the evening at dinner and in familiar togetherness.
Fragrance is almost catching, shelf life 4-5h, silage good - but could be better.
However in sum, no mistake - plays all pieces with bravura.
The price for 100ml with € 120 is rather crisp....

Unfortunately annoying
The first time I sprayed Gisada Uomo, I was pleasantly surprised. An elegant, almost luxurious vibe with fresh spice and fine woods. Unfortunately, however, the fragrance quickly....
The initially harmonious composition becomes intrusive and unpleasant over time. Instead of depth and development, what remains is a penetrating, almost synthetic note that is simply annoying.

A bad buy for me - a shame, because the first impression was promising.

A leap into the unknown
"Gisada Uomo | Gisada" was my first fragrance from the Gisada brand and to be honest, I didn't expect it to make it onto my shelf at all. The first test on the test strips didn't really convince me, but something motivated me to try it on my skin.

The "Gisada Uomo | Gisada" opens to my nose very spicy and very cognac-heavy, even if this is not included. The lemon, which is supposed to be hidden in the top note, is completely hidden from my nose. As the fragrance progresses, it becomes softer and sweeter but always with a certain spiciness and slightly woody. I notice relatively little oud, which is positive. For me, it's a very well-rounded fragrance that doesn't come across as too simple.
My description probably deviates somewhat from the fragrance pyramid, but I'll try to describe my fragrance experience.

The bottle is high-quality but not a big surprise/special feature. For the price range, however, perfectly fine.

The fragrance lasts well and the sillage is relatively close to the skin, which makes it perfect for the office. But it would also do well in other environments. For me, it's definitely a universal winter fragrance that I wouldn't want to be without.

Strong earthy, leathery, woody base mixed with dark amber + a splash of cocoa bitters. Animalic opening but picks up light fruits + florals.

A solidly made all-rounder for every day, but without corners and distinctive character. Wood synthetics in the background are irritating.
