Heavy hitting fruitchouli for men
I used to wear a couple of Maurice Roucel creations in past years, Man's Eau de Toilette and Gai Mattiolo Uomo Eau de Toilette, to be accurate, firm, and brave the former, light and bubbly the latter. I came across the fabulous TL pour Lui Eau de Toilette, and more lately, I discovered two other gems, Bogart pour Homme Eau de Toilette and Voyage Eau de Toilette, and now Forte. I seem I like Roucel's cologne quite a bit. Scuderia Forte occupied the bargain shelf of a perfume store; the 75ml size was discounted and offered 15 euro like its sibling Ferrari Black. After comparing them on a paper strip, I opted for Forte was something so captivating going on. I don't think it's entirely up to par with the Essence line, but it seems like it would be a decent workhorse frag. Scuderia Ferrari Forte is not a kind of Ferrari Black flanker, in my opinion. It is a new fragrance, which follows the current market for shareable, fruity, and sweetened perfumes that are successful at night but can also be worn during the day.
Forte is a non-linear cologne that goes through fruity, woody, and oriental stages. I've smelled this a few times on paper and was impressed. A gleaming and chilly start of Italian lemon, pineapple, and crispy apple opens the game on my skin. The sweet pineapple, which is abused in modern scents with Aventus above all, melts with the crisp apple skin and the zesty lemon peel, and the outcome is everything but off-putting. The first thing I get is fruity; the apple is dominant, with like a vanilla-pineapple accord in the background. The result is a fragrance of fruity and delicious output, which does not become cloying thanks to the presence of lemon. Incredibly, both apple and pineapple are perfectly balanced and bring an air of modernity.
The heart unveils an extrovert temperament expressed by cinnamon, fleshy juicy plum, and bright orange flowers. As it evolves, the plum covers the effervescent content of the orange blossom as if it were a soft layer of velvet. Without it, we would probably have a fragrance that would walk toward the same proposal of Silver Scent, for example. However, the cinnamon note was very noticeable to me, and it shows now and then.
Finally, the base takes time to appear, but it has a denser and fuller side when it arises. The dry down uncovers a daring woody-oriental closing vibrant of cedarwood, powdery vanilla, and musky patchouli that exhibits a healthy and assertive personality. Finally, as the frag draws to a close, you get this caramelized patchouli along with the synthetic fruitiness of the opening.
After wearing it for a night, not only has it grown on me, but it has a lot of power and gets a lot of compliments. It smells like a mix of many other fragrances currently on the market; nonetheless, it has its character. The scent has a fantastic performance. The dry down is not cheap with screechy woods or boring ambroxan. Though I do sense a lot of Iso E in the base, but not by itself, it blends well with vanilla and some fruity nuances from the opening. The fragrance does not have an absurd projection, even an Eau de Parfum. It has gained strength, and I feel that exudes well, but only for me and for those who are close, really close. It is not a scent that leaves a trace. In contrast, close to the other fragrances of the Scuderia line, the lasting has significantly improved, remaining more than nine hours on the skin. It is a spring fragrance for evening and night out.
