Is this really a Sorcinelli?!
Don't get me wrong - I like Filippo and his creations. And I also like '_scusami_'!
However, I was used to something different from him so far... Either incense in all variations from light to dark, or birch tar smoke, or calamus in 'epicentro' as a quirky bitter-herb component. There was always something with an edge. OK, maybe except for 'Rosa_Nigra', which is just clear and pure.
Upon the first sniff, I immediately thought of Mugler and his jasmine powder bombs, which you can often smell from miles away. In terms of intensity, '_scusami_' is no less. However, here delicious ripe fruits join in, particularly the mirabelle stands out pleasantly plump and juicy.
The fruit fades over time, leaving a powdery-sugary floral bouquet that drifts into a gentle, soft whisper of light wood and musk over many hours...
Overall, again very convincing in quality, but in a blind tasting, I would never have guessed Filippo ;-)
PS: The absolute highlight, in my opinion, is the bottle. What unfortunately cannot be captured in the photos at all is the color! The bottle and cap are adorned with notches, fitting the story (real notches in the cap, the bottle is smooth and only the lacquer has scratches). The bottle and cap are coated with an iridescent lacquer that reflects violet or gray-blue depending on the light. The lacquer would also be a hit for any car :-)
