Acqua Classica Borsari 1870 1880

Since 1880 unchanged in its formula and still in demand - I call that a truly timeless fragrance.

As a confessed fan of both classics and natural citrus scents, Acqua Classica combines these two preferences in the most successful way.

Now that summer has finally gotten into gear after some initial difficulties, there have been plenty of opportunities to refresh myself with this wonderful cologne, and here too, you can extend the longevity by additionally spraying the scent on your clothing.

In direct comparison with the EdP Eau d'Hadrien by Goutal, Acqua Classica does not need to hide. It lasts at least as long, while remaining just as subtle and close to the skin as one would expect from a citrus-dominated fragrance.
Unlike Goutal, the Borsari is not so one-dimensional, but shows a beautiful progression towards spicy green notes after the bergamot and lime-dominated top note fades, as has already been extensively described in previous comments.
Although classified as masculine, I also see it more in the unisex category.

Regarding the 300 ml bottle with balloon sprayer, I would like to note that while it looks great visually, it is technically completely inadequate. Anyone wanting a decent sprayer that doses precisely and doesn't just release air will unfortunately have to transfer it or should opt for the smaller size with a conventional spray head.
