Faboulous Fig, Weak Woods...
Michelangelo goes on with a highly aromatic, slightly sweet and green fruity fig. Moving to the early heart the composition remains highly linear with the aromatic fig front and center, now adding what can best be described as a banana-like facet to the mix with faint additional floral hyacinth support. During the late dry-down starting about 2 hours into the composition's development the fig vacates, revealing natural smelling cypriol derived woods in the base with hints of mildly aromatic supporting patchouli through the finish. Projection is minimal with the composition little more than a skin scent for most of its lifespan and longevity well below average at about 5 hours on skin.

Of the four Onyrico compositions I have had the opportunity to sample so far, Michelangelo is the one that easily stands out as the best of the lot with an aromatic fig open that is so natural smelling and truly sublime. While the composition doesn't develop much for the first half of its life cycle, the fig does add in a gorgeous banana-like facet that completely blends into the aromatics perfectly, enhancing the already stunning effect. From the open through this point the composition is a fabulous winner but alas, things fall apart to a degree in the late dry-down. In truth, there just isn't much backbone to the composition, and when the aromatic fig vacates about 1.5 to 2 hours in, there barely is anything left to smell save a faint combination of natural vague woods and patchouli that you need to put your nose directly to your wrist to detect. The finish certainly doesn't smell bad at all, but after the impressive open its faults are only emphasized and one can't help but be somewhat disappointed. Speaking of disappointments, like all the other Onyrico compositions I have tried so far performance is relatively poor. Onyrico is a new brand, and maybe they need to tweak perfume concentration levels going forward with additional experience, but so far all of their offerings need a much higher concentration level, or at least it certainly appears so. The bottom line is the 160 Euros per 100ml bottle Michelangelo is a largely successful composition that has an absolutely addictive fig open, only to lose momentum in its spineless late woody dry-down and all too short-lived performance, earning it a "very good" 3.5 star out of 5 rating and a solid recommendation with the stipulation that you don't mind reapplying throughout the day. I should mention that each Onyrico full bottle comes with a refillable travel atomizer. Maybe the folks at Onyrico realized that you would have to top off constantly and were proactive in accommodating?

Who smuggled in the nut?!
I confess that I really enjoy the stories that Onyrico presents with each of its fragrances. They have nothing to do with the perfumes in my opinion, but they are very pleasant to read. When looking at the fragrance pyramid, I was a bit afraid of a killer fruit basket, but - fortunately, theory and actual scent perception diverge here as well.

Michelangelo starts off lightly, fresh, and green, with a distinct fig that is accompanied by a pleasant splash of grapefruit, not citric-acid sharp, but rather zesty and bitter. I can't perceive all the flowers listed in the pyramid as individual components; for me, it just becomes a little bit more floral - until....
Tadaaaaaaaa ........
the hazelnut appears!! Don't ask me where it suddenly comes from, but I can smell it very clearly (I repeated the test today, and the nut is back). This nut lingers for a little while before Michelangelo exhales its fragrance life with its warm woody base.

Unfortunately, this happens after just 3-4 hours, but the scent is so light that you can easily reapply it.

Spicy-floral herb meadow. Dark, aromatic figs grow on the tree.
Michelangelo leans against the fragrant trunk. Creative lunch break.

A harmonious mix of green, fruity, and floral notes, spicy, woody, and green-resinous. Not standard, but everything fits together. Good!

Fruity & woody-citrusy fig, Davana, Magnolia. Then berry-like, balsamic, but always defined. Despite the fig: good!

Dark, unsweet fig scent (without coconut!) accompanied by fruits and woods. Oud?
Like a still life in painting.
I really like it!

My favorite fig scent...
The fig is always present, but never annoying, thanks to the incense and woods.

Starts sharp-green. Develops more and more into spicy fig-green on dense grass, wood, and a bit of earth. Unexcitedly beautiful.

Very nice fig scent, naturally fragrant. If Guerlain were on the bottle, the ratings would be higher.

An opulent pyramid. I smell some citrus, delicious fig-coconut, green, creamy. Can't perceive anything else. Still lovely though.

A fig tree - fresh, green, woody, and with plenty of fruity fig. Plus a few magnolias. Nice scent but not my type.
