A Bellini Cocktail On A Crazy Summer Evening
Bellini is an Italian long drink and a cornerstone of the history of cocktails, one of the most refined, stylish and nifty drinks. However, the Bellini is an Italian long drink and a cornerstone of the history of cocktails, one of the most refined, stylish and nifty drinks. However, the recipe is straightforward: mix some peach puree nectar with an excellent sparkling white wine like Spumante or Champagne, and you can sip a bit of heaven. Giuseppe Cipriani, the owner of this cocktail, created it in 1948 in the well-known Harry's Bar in Venice for the inauguration of the exhibition of paintings by the artist Giovanni Bellini. It is said that the particular pink colour of the cassock of a saint portrayed by the painter inspired Cipriani to create this drink. Originally, the cocktail featured Campagne, white peach pulp and a touch of raspberry puree, which gave it a slightly pink colour. Bellini owes its international fame not only to its pleasant fruity and sweet aroma but also to the many artists from all over the world and regulars of Harry's Bar, who have spread the knowledge of this cocktail all over the world.
And Jerome Epinette has seen fit to capture the essence of this Venetian cocktail and enclose it in this perfume. Of course, that's nothing new as other noses included this deal several years ago, for example, Sheer Beauty, Luscious Pink Eau de Parfum, and Play It Spicy Eau de Toilette to mention a few. In St Tropez presents an unexpected opening, with aromatic reflections of precious cooking herbs ranging from marjoram to thyme, finely chopped and soaked in citrus juices. The dark greenish and leafy tone might come from the velvety geranium, which oozes earlier than expected. This initial blast results from blending the harsh notes of citrus fruits and the spicy notes of black pepper. But it is not too bad; indeed, it is anything but unpleasant. As soon as the more citric part fades, the darker flaps emerge from my skin, like those typical slightly burnt liquorice roots, deep and dense. Meanwhile, in the background, I hear the presentation of the D.N.A. of Vibrant Leather Eau de Parfum, that unmistakable accord that comes from the union of the fruity notes of pineapple with the leathery ones.
The heart announces with the soft and fruity accord of the Bellini cocktail; the peachy tone is noticeable, and so is the Prosecco's boozy and bubbly touch. To contrast and balance this fruity and sweet aspect, the nose chooses a fumy and gummy element, the incense. Without making the mixture too clerical, the crystals of this ingredient manifest themselves clearly. The smell is that of pure unburned resin, not that of the thick smoke that emanates when ignited.

The smell is that of pure unburned resin and not that of the thick smoke that emanates when ignited. The picture is that of a bold man dressing in a linen white shirt, and sipping his Bellini long drink while smoking a cigarette.
The olibanum’s resinous facet continues up to the final stage along with the peach gentleness. In the dry-down, the cologne is pretty close to the OG Vibrant Leather Eau de Parfum. Of course, I even receive the deep notes of modern patchouli with a tinge of saltiness, but the cologne never gets too dirty or too marine. The perfume now sits close to my skin, but now and then I catch tropical whiffs of leathery pineapple, which can be confused with Vibrant Leather from now on.
Curiously enough, when I first smelled while ago the three perfumes in this “Vibrant Cities” collection, I hadn’t hesitated about whether to take them. In fact, I quit. If In St Tropez seemed to me the most original and intriguing one, alas In Fiji and In Tulum reminded me of something I already owned or smelled around. Among St. Tropez, Tulum, and Fiji, this is the most fruity and boozy. Recalls Vibrant Leather, no question about it, and the Bellini’s peach dominates. But just yesterday, in the ZARA shop, this perfume was standing alone on the checkout counter and was on sale for just over € 12. I bought it, and I have not regretted it, also because overall the perfume is pleasant, and its light blue-tinted bottle together with the magnetic cap alone is worth the price it cost me. I find it suitable for summer days and evenings, including late spring in Mediterranean locations where the climate is already mild and warm, because of fruity facets. The smoky, leathery chords make it more masculine, but don’t give it enough strength to face the colder seasons. On me it has remarkable performance. I feel it when I move, and it remains present for several hours. To conclude, I find it a noteworthy fragrance, which at times recalls the OG but proves to be unique and original, a worthy flanker. Keep in mind while available for all those who adore leathery and incensed families with a fruity but never too sweet touch.
I base the review on a 100ml bottle I have owned since August 2022 (BC 20400, 2022-02-09).
