Cold Brew
I found Versilia Platinum with the first sprayer somehow oldschool spicy and pungent and at the same time not unfashionable good. Maybe it's this ambivalence that tempts you to stick with the fragrance to get to the bottom of its secret
The fragrance is a "classic Italian" if there is such a thing. It starts uninhibitedly with a straight punch of bitter-bitter spices, and falls with door into the masculine hardness of the 90s. I have to think of Tony Soprano or Paulie Gualtieri (both characters from the US series "The Sopranos"). Slightly unwashed, white sleeveless undershirt - the so popular "wife-beater", in addition suit or tracksuit trousers, gold jewellery and noble and expensive leather slippers. This is more or less the dress code for the scent mood. Chic-comfortable, coarse-masculine, not completely without taste: the quiet Garry Cooper With this concept Versilia Platinum gives soap and lavender a wide berth. It's downright grandiose: on the one hand, it puts it at a good distance from the classic old-guy freshness, on the other hand, it gives the fragrance its rebellious citric-sour bitterness, which reminds me of cold coffee in the dry-down; or green, unripe coffee beans (?) I personally like that one forgotten sip of espresso, which I discover again next to me in the cup after 30 minutes of writing. Cold and sour it is still a pleasure for me. And also the cold brew technique celebrates this preference, may the hipster disguise it as he likes.
For me, Versilia is this outmoded rebel who, paradoxically, is anything but "fallen out of time". Anyone who creates something beyond classical ingredients without leaving classical music has understood the cyclical-spiral nature of time. This is art by definition and anything but cold coffee
