A light, airy, effervescent citrus/vanilla.
For me, citrus/vanilla scents are my favourite scent profile, along with gourmands. I have tested so many! (You can see all my comparisons under my review of Unknown Pleasures) and have just purchased Dulcis in Fundo for summer (which I absolutely love!) Il Colore del Vento might just be the better option for high heat and the summer citrus vanilla I’ve been searching for! I also love the inspiration behind the scent, which made it instantly more appealing.
Il Colore del Vento (the colours of the wind) is a light gourmand. It opens with an airy mix of vanilla, bright citrus, a nice balance of sweetness, and a touch of coriander which gives the scent a cool, slightly limey freshness. As it dries down I get a light, sweet, candied fruit smell with hints of zingy ginger and a little spiciness. It isn’t overpowering or heavy in any way. I get zero coffee and no cardamom (thank god!) but there is a slight effervescent quality to the scent in the mid, which I guess is due to the champagne note. This would work all year round and in high heat. Very well done, very high quality, no nasty base notes and at quite a cheap price. Beautiful 10/10
This isn’t similar to Lira, which is cakey, very sugary and a bit heavy. It also isn’t like Akro Bake which I find has a horrid ambroxan smelling dry down. This is closer to Chilli Candy Crush, but still very different and unique. The more I smell this, the more I love it.
