Impression made on a sample
Lovely scent. I mean it's already described by others. Oud is mainly present at the beginning. It hangs strong in there for around 40 minutes, and afterwards it still stays there, milder for around 20 to 30 minutes. On the same level of intensity come the core notes. Until now they (core notes) hanged in there for 3 hours, and now the final (warm) set of notes come into play (very intimate) for the last 5 hours.
I looked for a bottle, and I think the second- hand price is a really appealing compromise for 100ml EDP (new, not so much) : so, since I am a FM fanboy I will have to say the quality of the juice is close to them, but not quite there (hence the approval of SH price) .

It's a very mature and 'serious' perfume but still young' ish??? It leans masculine.

Silage wasn't really tested, thus I gave it a 7. To be continued
I didn't test it during a normal day of usage (sweating, ect. ) , just leisure so longevity is also still tested.

Dei gratia gloriosus Venetiarum
About the fragrance:
At the beginning, the oud pushes through and rattles full throttle into the nose, drives over the olfactory receptors and slams into the skull with bestalic force.

Florian, whose parents must have been very creative in naming him, comes from the deepest Orient, contrary to expectations. The first impression alone makes you immediately aware of this. You can perceive a slight animalic quality, then the rose fully unfolds, envelops the oud and becomes one with it. It is a fresh rose, not a dark one, a light one. Cardamom lends the fragrance a masculine, light spiciness. The fragrance then becomes darker, deeper and more masculine in the DD, probably due to the incense and civet.
It seems as if Florian has descended into the mystical catacombs of Venice at night.

Despite the rather "simple" oud-rose combination, the fragrance has a certain complexity, which is to be expected in this price category. Untrained noses will almost certainly detect a similarity to Ombre Nomade, although the Gritti is much more floral and less fruity. Above all, in terms of P/L, it is a step ahead of the LV, especially if you can get it cheaper.

H/S is bombastic. It lasts and lasts, on clothes for days. One spray in the morning, off to the office and still smelling of it in the evening during sports. What more could you want.

The vaporizer is very powerful, ideal for ASMR enthusiasts and for all those who love auditory stimuli. The bottle is high quality in velvet and the cap is actually, according to the website, dressed in 24 carat gold and decorated with the logo of the Gritti dynasty. Inspired by the clothing of Venetian Doges. There is a very clear reference here to Luca Gritti's ancestry, whose roots lie in an Italian aristocratic dynasty.
All in all, not a fragrance that stands out for its uniqueness, but for its quality.

Ruby red
When the dust of the Wild West met ancient civilizations, Florian von Gritti galloped in as a perfume outlaw. Cardamom, ginger and saffron, the spiced gunslingers, enter the saloons of our senses with a bang, their aromas as sharp as the gunshots of a duel at sunset.

The Arabian Taif rose, accompanied by eaglewood and myrrh, is like a fearless band riding across the dusty plains of the Orient. At the heart of this adventure, the precious oud sits enthroned like the hidden treasure of a long-forgotten city, surrounded by the spicy notes of cardamom and the dramatic presence of Taif rose towering above them as a silhouette, wild and untamed like the spirit of the West itself
Sandalwood, incense and civet form the foundation of this masterpiece, like the quiet moments around the campfire, under the endless canopy of stars, telling stories of freedom and adventure. Somewhere a hyena is pacing around, searching in vain for the civet.

The bottle, a tribute to the elegance of Italian aristocracy, blends with the roughness of frontier life, a symbol of the union of culture and wilderness.

Florian, the Ruby of Gritti is the call of adventure, the echo of treasure maps and forgotten legends, wrapped in a fragrance. He brings the calm after the storm, the contemplation around the campfire, while the last embers light up the night with stories of freedom and adventure.

The Florian in Animalik PUR
I actually bought the Florian blind and was thrilled by this little water. YES, it has a certain similarity to Ombre Nomade but is still completely independent. The similarity is probably due to the oud.
Speaking of oud, it contains real Laotian oud. You don't often find it, but in this price range, you should expect at least a little bit and not like in Oud Maracujá Whether you can smell the real vs. synthetic, I don't know. My olfactory bulb is not fine enough for that :-) Now to the fragrance progression
The opening is strong and very oud/herb-heavy. More than 2 sprays are not necessary. No alcohol smell or anything like that. Everything is perfectly balanced. The dark tartness of incense and civet dominate in an almost linear progression. I also somehow perceive an oud plum, although it is not listed here, I have the feeling that it is there. Not sweet but nicely tart.
After about 10 minutes, something sweet is added, which I can't interpret but which must be the rose. It is well hidden in the background but still present. The fragrance lasts for hours on my skin. It can even be felt on the skin after showering.
Florian is not for everyone and is definitely not unisex. This is pure animalism.
I still have to find out what occasion I will wear it for. Definitely not a fragrance for every day. It's just special.

I don't really want to smell like Flo
When I first smelled the fragrance I was very surprised. Florian sounds boring to me if your name is Florian please don't get me wrong;) Andreas might have done it, but let's leave that aside. Let's get to the fragrance; here you get the good old rose oud DNA. But really a very nice oud note, hardly animalic. If someone is looking for a nice elegant rose oud scent, this is a good one. Pleasing oud! Might have a similarity to Ombre Nomade for untrained noses which is not entirely wrong but a bit more wearable. And rosier!
Have fun testing :)

Powerful oud perfume. Floral elements fade after a couple hours and it’s all woods then I think the sandalwood and oud last rest of the journey.

Opens rose-cypriol, reminding me of Favonius/Mana. Cardamom/saffron give it a nutty praline vibe like Haltane. Opens strong, but fades fast.
