Nice smell, stupid name!
Hello and welcome (once again... you know that...) to a new comment from your dearest, but unfortunately endlessly babbling comment writer :D
Today I come to the brand Maison Mona di Orio, of which I had only tested two fragrances so far and therefore the brand is rather unknown to me. The fragrance I present here is called "Suède de Suède", which sounds pretty stupid to me, as it would mean either Sweden from/to Sweden or suede from/to suede leather. Of course, only if I'm not completely wrong. You probably know a lot of comments from me, so you also know that I'm not exactly a language genius :D

But since the fragrance contains suede leather, I assume that suède means suede leather and not the country where the climate activist Greta Thunberg comes from (Sweden :D), who not only triggers discussions about the climate, but even sparks some fierce discussions because of "sitting on the floor in a train",... well. It would surely be more interesting to find out if Greta uses scents for example (after all she is a vegan, so it's unlikely that she uses "normal scents") :D
Oh yes, IKEA also comes from Sweden and... oh you see... I jump from one topic to the next, but I told you I was a chatterbox, didn't I? D
On the other hand, it could also be that I simply can't think of anything at the moment that I could write about this fragrance here, he he.

But since I mentioned Greta earlier, I could tell you about it endlessly and moan how great it should be to be as young as they are, but since you're all as old as I am here, you can surely feel what I feel, maybe even stronger, since some of you are older than me... he he... okay okay, I won't deepen this topic and prefer to come to the fragrance :D

The fragrance:
Pepper's the first thing you can smell around here. But the pepper is neither stabbing nor any other way to run away, as it can sometimes be when it should be dosed too much. No, the pepper even smells quite pleasant, which is also due to the fact that nice, sweet smells radiate in the background, which I cannot yet determine more closely. The sweetness is slightly fruity at first, then more flowery, so it could possibly be the osmanthus.
The next thing that you can smell quite well is the leather, namely the beautiful, soft suede, which I like quite well in contrast to the "normal" leather. Beside these main scents I notice some woods, some patchouli and a light, oud-like note, which disappears quickly.
In the middle part it still smells of soft suede with a now weakened pepper. The other scents mentioned are also getting weaker, leaving a small, gentle sweetness. By the way, the background is now also horny :D So by this I mean that you can now smell beaver horny and thus also a little bit of animal scents. With the exception of musk, I don't really like such animal notes very much, but here these scents go well with the suede fragrance.
From the base you can still smell the leather notes very well. The pepper is now even weaker, but the woody notes become stronger and you can see that it is cedar wood. Woody and leathery, the fragrance finally ends.

The Sillage and the shelf life:
The Sillage is mediocre at first, but then it subsides slightly. You don't have to get very close to smell the scent, but you can't smell the scent at long distances. The shelf life is with about eight hours, more or less, quite good!

The bottle:
The bottle is cylindrical and has a rather thick base. There is no label, instead the name of the fragrance and the logo of the brand were printed directly on the front. At the upper part there is a gold-plated plate, on top of which there is the spray head and on top of it again a disc-shaped, gold-plated lid with an embossing of the brand name. It's a little simple for my taste, but still okay.

So, here we have a soft leather scent with above average sillage, which smells good and leather fans can have a look at it, even if it shouldn't come across as soo incredibly spectacular. For me it is an everyday scent, so mainly for during the day in autumn and it is also unisex. For the ladies it is not too leathery and woody, and for the gentlemen it is not too sweety-soft.

Well, you can test it or not, because it's not a must for me. Interested people don't make a mistake if they let the scent touch their skin, but blind you shouldn't necessarily order such a scent (although I generally think that you should never order a scent blind :D).

Well, now I'm coming to the end without talking any more here and then talking about things like comics, Star Wars or the age of perfumes and so on... you see, I can do that too! :)
Whereby the newest Star Wars movie can be seen meanwhile and I could certainly tell a lot more, but don't worry, I'll stop first :D

Well then, have a nice evening and see you next time :)

PS: And excuse the jokes with the age. These are just jokes... so leave torch and pitchfork in the basement or something (incredible that you still have torch and pitchfork today!!!)
