A True Corinto

Indeed, anyone who knows its (presumed) father, the "Carlo Corinto pour Homme," this extremely green-herbaceous fragrance, will immediately recognize the related DNA in the initial sniff. While the top note is still dominated by herbaceousness, a new floral component quickly follows. If I can trust the fragrance pyramid, the geranium is likely responsible for this.

Overall, the scent proves to be worthy of its year of release, without excessively swinging the powerhouse club. It undoubtedly has strength and endurance, but it doesn't overwhelm you; it remains, so to speak, "foreground in the background" and always delights with a calm, natural, and self-evident presence.

A flawless and beautiful old-schooler on the verge of transitioning to the "modern age," which is still available in the bay at reasonable prices. You come into my cabinets in the "rose corner," my good man, even if behind blockbusters like Acteur and Pavarotti, as you ultimately focus not on floral notes but rather on green herbaceousness...

With brand names like "Carlo Corinto," there are usually only two options:
Either a cheap department store private label or an extremely cool Italian.

Man, you write such great comments - unfortunately for me, they're mostly about scents from a corner that's rarely mine. Trophy - of course.
