Orange Calabria Première Note 2014

Recently there was a perfume-members meeting in Cologne. Being from Cologne (or Immi), I didn't want to miss that. We met in a café and scented a lot of the fragrances we brought with us and exchanged samples. Unfortunately I didn't know about this "tradition", because it was my first meeting and so I didn't have any samples with me. Well, afterwards we visited several perfumeries and smelled what the stuff holds. In the evening we went to the perfumery SF Perfume history. All the time I was looking for a spicy oriental scent in vain until I sniffed the citric orange calabria there.
First impressions: Wow.
He's got something.
The other people present also liked the scent at first sight.
The perfume meeting was very cool. It ended very sociable at the Thai's around midnight and we were lucky - it was the last Saturday before the relevant changes in public life caused by the virus.

But to the smell:
I am greeted by a beautiful authentic load of orange, neither sweet nor sour, with a slight lemony touch. Also reminds me a little of Storcks 'nehme 2' Bonbons.
The citric character is retained and gradually weakens, the white musk comes out slightly. I hardly hear any other notes.
A citric-orange high-quality and very pleasing EdP in the style of a colognes, with reasonable durability, very pleasant on warm days.

The bottle is chic, the cap is heavy and shines beautifully golden. Not exactly a bargain in terms of price, but still within the affordable range.

So I didn't get to know my Oriental, but on these warm days I now enjoy the Mediterranean scent of bitter oranges in my nose - and revel in the thoughts of Calabrian coastal villages, while I let the sun pamper me on my balcony facing the backyard.

If you like "Orange Sanguine" and are still looking for something fresh and orange for warm days, you should also try Orange Calabria. Because the latter is in my eyes even better
