Confetto Profumum Roma 1996

I'm not really a fan of gourmands. I quickly find them too much, too quietly girly and overwhelming. But this one really appealed to me. Confetto impresses with a rather mature, pleasant sweetness, which is made very wearable for me by the spicy accords and the almost fresh aniseed note (although it comes across as a bit synthetic for me). The fragrance combines a beautiful vanilla with slightly bitter almonds. And the longevity is incorrigible. I sprayed a sample of this on my wrist in the evening and washed it off before going to bed. I could still smell it the next morning. Much weaker, of course, but that lovely almond note was definitely still there. That made me super happy, because I normally have real problems with longevity... dry skin and all that.
I notice that the longer I wear it, the more beautiful, in the sense of softer and more supple, it becomes.
I've also heard from people around me that it has a very subtle suntan lotion vibe, which I thought was great because it immediately evokes associations with the beach and a good time. That's why I now like to wear it in summer, but in small doses. I can't wait to see how it performs in fresh temperatures.

The only thing that's really annoying is the cheap sprayer. I love the attention to detail. All of my niche fragrances have a robust and quite heavy cap that feels extremely valuable. Here you get a thin aluminum case. Could be better. The roll on is practical, but I always prefer an atomizer. Roll ins are usually far too concentrated for me. But I would only take this with me if I wanted to travel with the fragrance. I don't trust this atomizer, which I can turn on myself, not to run out....
