Lemon oil on a viola's fingerboard

Unlike Il Padrino I really like the name/theming of this fragrance. It really does smell like a string instrument. It reminds me of when I'm changing the strings on my guitar and applying lemon oil to the fretboard. A STRONG lemon note precedes a really nice woody heart. Oakmoss, cedarwood, and sandalwood come together to produce a creamy refined character.

I haven't tried Town & Country that Viola is being compared to, but to me it seems like a cross between Homme Anniversary and Outlands. It's got the lemon candy and traditional woody character of Homme Anniversary (without the leather), and it's got the smooth sandalwood and ambery drydown of Outlands. I don't like it as much as Outlands, but I think I prefer Viola to Homme Anniversary. Not full bottle worthy for me, but an enjoyable scent. Very good performance, lasts much longer than is being given credit for in the previous reviews.

the new viola

... still has the scent of polish: fine citrus freshness combined with oily warm woodiness. You smell it while you play - awake and familiar.

And its sound: still a bit nasal - in this bright blur a slight stiffness. However, the lower strings produce a wide, warm, unpretentious sound.
it will never be as radiant as the violin - never as lushly expansive as a cello -

it remains a bit more modest, warm-hearted, and soft.
Thus, this scent perfectly reflects the character of the instrument: unpretentious, fresh, woody-warm,
limited, moderate, and adaptable.

Another BR540 x Elysium crossover (Town & Country / Lucius dupe). More lemony, but the citruses as a whole are rough just like in Basso.

Amazing performance but overwhelming incense and nutmug combo is just to much. Not for me

A rather citronella type opening with a long lasting deep woody base. Not the best creation from Sospiro by any means.

A creative citrus-woody blend with a dominant woody presence. Moderate longevity and projection make it an average choice.

Love. Confusing-ish open dries to an oakmoss-incense blend over wood. Reminds me of LL MdC 30, but woodier and less spicy. Love both. Keeps improving.
