Sapindales
Not the only one of its kind
An early summer breakfast in the garden. The rising warmth elicits a soothing and invigorating aroma from the trees. At the same time, the dew cools the air down a little and provides a fresh breeze from time to time. Although the lavender and geraniums are not yet in bloom, they are already trying to create a wonderful veil of fragrance over the flower beds.
A really beautiful summer fragrance for relaxed days, which certainly works in other seasons too. Serious, mature, straightforward, unagitated and a touch elegant. The greatest quality of this fragrance is its unobtrusiveness and simultaneous depth. An almost unique DNA in the perfume world, because it is not alone! There is a brother...
The Sunday Cologne is very similar to Acqua di Parma - Quercia, although the latter was released ten years later. La Quercia is the oak (Latin Quercus). A fitting name that aptly describes both fragrances - even if both perfumes "only" work with (oak) moss. However, the similarity between the two fragrances only becomes apparent after a good half hour. The Sunday Cologne is initially much fresher. Here, you sit down at the breakfast table with a freshly showered bergamot citrus.
For me, Acqua di Parma is the "Intense" version of Sunday Cologne. Spicier, woodier and a little louder. But still far from a shrill perfume. I like the spicier Quercia a little better - on top of that, it has better longevity. Both fragrances are wonderful - Italian-inspired - summer perfumes that stand out from the usual citrusy-aquatic mainstream. Summeriness is achieved here through a woody freshness, which is certainly not always so easy.
Sunday Cologne and Quercia - two fragrances that subtly spread a good mood.
