Fruwoodyrose

This is a fantastic fruwoodyrose EDP!

Lightly juicy, not cloying, just a tad woody to render it warm, reduce the "wetness" that fruit notes can at times evoke. It is a fine concoction, a reminder of "proper" scent, well balanced, never vulgar, simply a stand-out of the crowd for love of unusual roses.

Love at first spriz! I give it a full 8 also for longevity and sillage (arms length). A classy number to wear everywhere, at any given time of the day and night. Try to believe, you won't regret it. But don't expect something extraordinary. This is just unique without stretching that far.

Summer; boring Sunday afternoon

The bottle is beautiful and impressive. A bit scary for me with the sharp edges. The intensive colors imply something dangerous, mystic. – Oh, forget it!

L’ACQUAROSSA...
1st stage: strong attack of citruses and fruits, a bit synthetic.
2nd stage: creamy, featureless end.

However it misses anything that could be bothersome, still can not catch intensive attention in my opinion – only with the bottle. It can be perfect wear for average days, when you do not want to bother with listening your skin and following difficult aromas.
I am sorry, if I offended someone with my opinion.

What is a strong woman?

In the "Interesting Facts," it states that the face of this fragrance is actress Chiara Mastroianni.
The apple doesn't fall far from the tree. She is the daughter of Catherine Deneuve and Marcello Mastroianni. Two strong personalities and excellent actors. Genuine and not artificial like some other actors today.
One could really label this overlooked Fendi fragrance as a scent for a strong woman. At least at first.
Not that strong women should necessarily be equated with extreme feminists! I think strong women have a healthy sense of self-confidence and self-worth. They are at peace with themselves and know what they want and who they are. They still have their primal instincts, are helpful, lovable, and show emotion.
Their lives are sparkling, but also have ups and downs. They don’t let anyone take the bread from their plate.

Okay, enough about that ;-) It should be about the fragrance.
Unfortunately, I can't agree with the statement from Ergreifend this time. For me, there aren't too many fragrance notes present. But unfortunately, the dried plum, which I know to be juicy, fruity, and meaty, gets lost. At first, you notice it, as if you were adding plums to a gravy and can briefly inhale that wonderful scent. So, you only smell the plum, not the sauce! Then immediately the citrus notes come in, bitter, a bit rough. The dominant notes in this fragrance are clearly the roses and everything that goes with them. A potpourri of heart notes that cannot be denied. You can't distinguish between rose or wandering rose. It just smells rosy. Cedar, yes, is there! But thankfully only subtly, occasionally calling out "Hello." The fragrance could be made a bit "rounder"; at times it feels a bit cool.
After a few hours, it becomes quieter, softer, and musk reveals itself. It caresses the scented areas.
All in all, a rose fragrance that is really more for the "strong" woman. It is not a rose scent for girls. And the slightly fruity aspect - which could be much more, as it would fit beautifully - is like a little "evil" to keep L'Acquarossa from being too tame!
