Scrigno sacro
I tried it from a sample in perfumery in preview, it is an ecclesiastical incense, cathedral, as the incense seems to remain very adherent to the skin not by sillage, (you should try to wear the fragrance) it reminded me of the catacombs, sacred casket , coffin, dust.
In my opinion it is a difficult fragrance to wear, if not for ecclesiastical or gothic characters, it is more a work of art

Please, he's crazy.
Why does one buy Sorcinelli fragrances? Surely not because they are so suitable for everyday use, discreet and unobtrusive.
Why then?
When I saw the ads for Reliqvia, I felt the same way about his popper bottles, which he markets as roll-on scents.
First thought (in Viennese dialect): "Naa...naa..geh bitte...der spinnt jo...der is jo krank."
Second thought: "Sounds now but not so bad, the can even be what, you could maybe wear."
So: Blind purchase, is yes wuascht, if he is nothing, then he pretties up the perfume table, the Sorcinellis can innately yes quite well.

Today he came and I sprayed it on me and the first thought was "Bist gscheit, like Montana Haustropfen" (A herbal solution that is taken for stomach problems).

In fact, this fragrance is evolving more and more into an absolutely wearable Sorcinelli (I'm a little surprised myself), which one associates most with a Freshly Umgeholzten forest, in which a grill stands and charcoal burns, while an altar boy with an incense burner swings neatly and one eats currants himself.

What the scent can do: Intriguing, attracting, unnerving, repelling.
Either you can with this contrasting, constantly changing fragrance, or just not, because overwhelming he can also be.

Very dominant is the Elemiharz and the smoke, which can make it of course something pungent and the currant also something sour.
Gradually, however, this subsides and he becomes softer, woodier.

The fasczniation that perfumer and brand exert on me and many others is certainly sometimes a reason why I buy these perfumes blind and rely on him becoming unconventional.
In this case, the blind purchase was worth it in any case, because he is a little more restrained than his predecessors.
And on top of that, it has that slightly clerical campiness to it. That's also nice.
But otherwise I remain: Please the spinnt jo.

Filippo Sorcinelli for beginners
Unum - Reliqvia I received today as a bottling. I was already very excited about Unum - Reliqvia, because the fragrances of Filippo Sorcinelli are mostly not really suitable for everyday life, or have always been for me something that I can wear 1-2 times a year but not more often. The person behind the brand also triggers a certain fascination for me.

Unum - Reliqvia Is really a bit softer than other incense-laden creations of the brand, but even with Unum - Reliqvia I see the incense as omnipresent note, which sees itself through the whole fragrance. Unum - Reliqvia knows how to distinguish itself from the other Filippo Sorcinelli fragrances, because in Unum - Reliqvia, there is also a woody component that makes the incense softer and smoother. The note of smoke is somehow strange, because it is not present at all and if it is present, it is completely swallowed by the incense note. Unum - Reliqvia has a nice slightly fresh top note with orange and currant, which makes Unum - Reliqvia even softer. The woody and fresh top note successfully manages to make Unum - Reliqvi suitable for everyday wear. The fragrance is not as sharp and merciless as other fragrances from the brand. I must say that I am really excited about Unum - Reliqvia. The fragrance has managed to retain the incense DNA but is gentler and also perfect for newcomers to the brand.

The durability also leaves nothing to be desired. Unum - Reliqvia holds loosely 11-12 hours with me. The silage is especially for 3-4 hours very strong and creates it at overdose to annoy other people, less is clearly more here. After about 8-9 hours Unum - Reliqvia is almost skin tight.

I am really excited about Unum - Reliqvia. Here was skillfully optimized and adjusted and out came a Filippo Sorcinelli for everyone, such experiments often miss, but not with this brand.

Hit the nail on the head!
And from the side! Well, what can I say? Well, CRASS! A woody-resinous-coniferous-balsamic adulation of everything that is "sacred" to the nose of a friend of green-smoky fragrances!
And I am "only" sniffing the "room fragrance" of the extrait! Which smells at least as strong as an otherwise "normal" eau de parfum of another, also very good brand.
The fragrance has nothing in common with the scent of a rusty nail. It is supposed to be an olfactory and visual symbol of a crucifixion nail of Jesus Christ. This "gentle but serious rebel" who ultimately shaped and continues to shape an entire world religion.
Such a "wise rebel" also seems to be in this wonderfully smoky perfume. Someone who loves and lives peace, loves nature and everything in it and fights to respect and preserve it. Defending the forest in all its diversity. He emphasizes the preciousness of rare resins and exotic spices. And sees the abundance in "simplicity".
A fragrance with all the facets of faith in the "power of the elements" and the message to respect them and face them with a certain humility.
A fragrance... a symbolic nail that hits many themes on the head.
Simply... a tribute!!!

Resurrection
A wonderful fragrance. Cleansing. Revitalizing. Historic and yet light and suitable for everyday use. Cold, a little fresh. Blue smoke in cold walls. Bluish rays of sun break through the gray cloud cover shortly after sunrise. Soon it will be spring. Everything begins anew.
The scent for a great day.

After a fresh and soapy spicy-smoky opening, this rather dark and spicy smoky-woody fragrance, settles to a warm and musky earthy-woody base

An overdose of off-putting cumin/cloves marrs the Baroque splendour of woods and incense: an Italian cathedral full of sweaty priests.

Glorious incense, fades slowly to smoke & soap. Takes hours to fade on my skin. I feel powerful and mysteriously beneficent wearing this.

On my skin: opens with a peculiar cumin-like note that smells sweaty and disturbing. Smells like a church but one full of people. Strange.

It smells like a cozy wooden church in the forest, other people love this. Lasts at least 8h with weak projection but leaves a nice trail.
