A spark of love
“Even a spark sheds light”
This fragrance plays easily with me: a fruity opening quickly leaves space to one of my favorite combinations: Iris and violet, made even softer by a barely noticeable jasmine, very pleasant.
The result is a creamy, soft and sensual fragrance.
So,did this spark fly? Definitely yes .

Medical practice
The fragrance reminds me of a dentist's office. It's certainly recognizable, but definitely not a crowd-pleaser...a matter of taste. But I have to say that I love finding interesting fragrances that are challenging and not mainstream, so a definite plus for that! If you like clean fragrances with synthetic DNA, you might find a favorite here.

Very delicate and light, feminine, almost elegant. Scintilla smells good - but inconsequential.
Blind test:

Slightly sweet, fruity start (I'm guessing Williams pear?). Certainly synthetic, but not unpleasant.
The fruit disappears very quickly and it smells very delicately of flowers (I can't clearly smell any type, but can pretty much rule out rose, tuberose and neroli). It becomes more and more synthetic, but remains pleasant and becomes fresher rather than sweeter.

The whole thing is really VERY delicate and light, feminine, almost elegant. It smells good to me - but inconsequential.

After just under 15 minutes, the fragrance is so close to the skin that I can barely detect it. It smells pleasantly light and fresh (which is how I imagine a clean laundry fragrance should smell) - not sweet and not floral. Undefinable, definitely synthetic - but I have no problems with that here at all!

This is probably one of those fragrances that gets very different reviews. And I could imagine it being a headache candidate for many people!

Just looked it up: Scintilla means spark or flying spark. Unfortunately, that doesn't get me any further...

When drydown becomes a highlight
After the first spray, I notice a slightly sweet and herbal scent (like the faded memory of licorice).
The herbal impression intensifies over the next few hours (I'm guessing the mixture of pepper and the various flowers?). Unfortunately, I don't particularly like this fragrance on paper or on my skin.

The big "but" for me comes after about 5-6 hours. The herbal notes then fade completely. What remains is the scent of a soft aftershave (just like my father's as a child). Can also be compared to a much softer, weaker version of Baccarat Rouge (here I am really only referring to the "drydown" aspect of BR). Ambroxan in more subtle and far less artificial.

The sillage is rather restrained. I sprayed carefully during the skin test (as even a few sprays can have an almost overpowering effect with some fragrances), and after about 4 hours I only perceive the fragrance close to the skin.
The longevity itself, on the other hand, is good, after about 8 hours I can still perceive the fragrance (close to the skin). A plus for me at this point, as I don't want to have a fragrance permanently in my nose, but prefer a little "whiff" every now and then.

If Scintilla only consisted of the last "aftershave" part, it would be perfect for me.

Mostly synthetic to my nose, I smell no fruit, no sweetness. Just synthetic accords and a bit of violet and iris, making it a bit powdery

Fresh clean shampoo type of scent, its nice, pleasant and a bit generic, while still somewhat unique. Hard to explain lol, I like it it's OK I guess
