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.
