Dedicated to Our Inner Little Girls
Everything about Signorina was meant to not_impress me. The fact that it's a secondary product to a high-end fashion accessory line, the obviously fruity-floral-gourmand composition, the cute bow, the very pinkness of the perfume. And yet, when I sampled it, I was immediately taken in.
Make no mistake, this is not some run of the mill scent ordered by the marketing department so that Ferragamo may have something to console those who can't afford their shoes. Thought, soul and effort have actually been put into this juice.
Scentwise, it strikes a balance between coffee shop sweetness and the crisp tartness of Cassis, with a tendency to get sweeter over time. The Panna cotta announced in the base makes itself obvious from the very start and blends well with the florals, of which Peony is the most prominent. Drydown is mostly Musk with maybe just a smidgen of Patchouli. Compared to some of the Miss Dior (Cherie) flankers, Signorina seems to boast much better quality of ingredients. My only minor concern is the Musk which does tend to get a bit shrill when the perfume is applied on fabric. Yet, on skin this doesn't manifest.
I've been wearing Signorina every once in a while for some months now, and it's proven a very welcome addition to my collection of stark chypres, full-blown orientals and pearly aldehydes, a tribute and outlet to my inner child whom I finally learned to appreciate.

Sweetish Pinkish Muskiness
Salvatore Ferragamo is usually hit or miss with me, but the strange thing is that the very same perfume can be a hit or a miss on two different days! For some reason, the base which appears in most of their fragrances can be appealing or unappealing to me, depending upon, well, who knows what circumstances!

In the case of SIGNORINA, the musky base seems a bit less chemically than in either F or F FOR NIGHT (which is the eau de parfum of the "daytime" eau de toilette). The rest of the composition is a fairly familiar refrain: pinkish florality, sweetish patchouli, all quite detectable but without going overboard. The pink pepper must have been wielded with a very light hand, because I barely detect it and am usually quite sensitive to that note. In my experience, pink pepper (baies roses) often overpowers the rest of the components with which it figures in a fragrance.

This is a perfectly fine everyday perfume. It's pretty and polite but has just a touch of a naughty edge because of the patchouli and the musk. I am reminded by this creation of La Perla J'AIME, except that J'AIME crosses over the line to the dirty side with a somewhat heavy muskiness which I do not find very appealing.

SIGNORINA is more like the younger sister of the racier J'AIME. Still innocent but looking perhaps one day to emulate her older sibling, the cheerleader who got knocked up in the locker room.

Miss Wonder on a Detour
When I saw advertisements for this fragrance in magazines some time ago, the thought immediately crossed my mind that there is an attempt to reach the successes of scents like Coco Mademoiselle and Miss Dior. The bottle design strongly resembles the Miss Dior appearance. That's not necessarily a bad thing and is often practiced. One thing the advertising campaign achieved: Mari's curiosity shot through the roof. Checking it out here, the fragrance composition also sounded promising. After Feline's comment, I couldn't hold back any longer.

Soon, I stormed into the nearest perfumery with rosy cheeks from excitement. The object of desire was quickly found, even quicker it was sprayed, and just as fast the nose was wrinkled...
For a fleeting mini moment, the scent was fresh, the blackcurrant came, waved, but quickly left. Then the fragrance became very floral - and something incredibly musty was added. Could that be the panna cotta? Something definitely smells like bad milk with rotten flowers. No, Mari doesn't like that! This note comes very quickly and stays until the end, making it impossible for me to wear the fragrance. I tried it a few more times, but no, no, this is not going to work out between the Miss and me. Nothing creamy, nothing delicate. Strangely sweet-sour. Just a big BANG and shaking. It actually makes me feel nauseous. I find that sneaky.

I'm sure Signorina will find her fans. I will NOT invite her to any of my legendary pajama parties. Ha!

Signorina with Extension
I watch the World Cup with interest - while I appreciate the athletic performance.

That "our boys" have been knocked out doesn't bother me, as I found their performance weak.

But at the moment, I do feel a tendency towards England rising within me, perhaps because I have experienced beautiful times on the island.
I like the British dry humor, accompanied by exquisite politeness.
I cannot free myself from sympathies either.

And so, the Signorina EDT has long held my sympathy.
It is chic, with a kick of cheekiness.

Of course, I also want to fairly give the EDP a chance, but I search in vain for that cheeky attitude there.
The EDP is more sensible and, due to its rosy notes, more ladylike.
Jasmine conveys elegance, and a smoky note feels mature.
The berry panna cotta is somewhat delicious but unfortunately fades away too quickly.
The other ingredients, especially the patchouli, shine through in their longevity.
To stay in World Cup language - this is a Signorina with extension.

Although the EDT is more fleeting, I prefer its carefree attitude and its more pointed design.

A football game doesn't necessarily gain class through an extension.

Where Love Falls
A visit to a perfume shop is - to put it bluntly - a bit like (love) life. We have a large market with all kinds of models, colors, shapes; there should be something for everyone’s taste, some test just one and remain loyal to it for a lifetime, while others switch regularly and need fresh air more often. There are also those who never find the right one. Some are true objects of desire, we long for them and want to have them, they exude an incredible allure - and either we eventually dare to approach them or remain unhappily in love for various reasons. And sometimes, we come across ones we never had on our radar. But then we like them right away, so to speak, the legendary love at first sight.

That’s how it was for me and Signorina. I would have never noticed this fragrance had it not been on the sale table in January. Here were all those who had to spend Christmas alone and didn’t have the luck of lying under the Christmas tree and making someone happy. What a shame! Signorina was part of a set, red packaging, somewhat clunky design - no wonder this special edition package didn’t sell. But hey, now there was a 40 percent discount!

So it was indeed worthy of a sniff, and the perfume saleswoman (or should I say: matchmaker) and I were equally astonished. On my skin, this fragrance is... How should I put it... Delicious! The panna cotta is the note that stands out the most for me, paired with floral peony and fruity currant. Fortunately, I can’t smell any pepper or patchouli, as those are my no-go notes. Here we are again with real life: everyone has some traits within them that the other doesn’t quite like.

I was really surprised by how long Signorina stayed with me. Normally, I diligently reapply throughout the day, but here it’s enough to apply the perfume in the morning. Plus point for loyalty. I also find it pretty, pink and bows are totally my thing. Overall, I think Signorina is an underrated gourmand that comes across as very feminine and whose sweetness is also office-friendly. Those who find LVEB too heavy and are looking for something smarter will like this one. If the squeaky, intrusive quality of Sì doesn’t appeal to you, you might find happiness with Signorina. And if you think the strawberry in Celebrate Now could have been designed a bit less candy-like, you should take a sniff of Signorina.

Well, we have many ideas and plans - but who knows where love falls!

Sorry, but no matter how many times I smell it, I still don't understand why this is described as gourmand.A typical feminine designer scent

Lovely currant-rose for the lady. Mild sweetness + creaminess from delicate musk cream, without being intrusive. Charming all-rounder.

You are so different from all the others (summer scents)!
Herb-sweet blackcurrant with panna cotta.
For the Italian moments in life.

Even the delicate rose signals: I'm the weakest in my family! My siblings are much more powerful! Delicate fluffy panna cotta.

Blackcurrant panna cotta paired with a pencil note... quite interesting & far less sweet than expected. Light and pleasant!

Peppery-floral opening that transforms into a creamy-floral. I like the lady and don’t find her sweet at all...

I don't smell anything cupcakey, etc. Pink pepper/ jasmine/ peony come through very strongly.
Less sharp than Dior J'adore with a creamy aroma.
