The Certain Something

I was curious about the scent because I recently treated myself to Limone di Sizilia and wanted to test more from the brand.
With Fresco di Vetiver, I have asked myself several times in the past few days whether I like it or not. It has that certain something; otherwise, I wouldn't have spent so much time with it. A fragrance that you must constantly smell.

Lilac and lily of the valley hit me right away. Just as quickly as the curve rises, it falls again. There's a tingling in the nose. A small, brief freshness kick, comparable to inhaling eucalyptus/camphor, clears the nose additionally.
Immediately after, the scent becomes creamy green; I can perceive the vetiver well. But this earthy tone is by no means too much or intrusive for me.

The next facet then puzzled me. In combination with the arriving dry-powdery sandalwood, it smells to me like a medicinal ointment. It’s unusual, and I like it. I feel the same way as my husband, who said he had smelled it before but couldn't place it.
I have the impression that the fragrance unfolds more and more, becoming warmer and more soothing. The sillage is very good on my skin.

Fresco di Vetiver has an exciting scent development and is also wearable by women, in my opinion.
I will not be purchasing it, but I am happy with the sample, which I can enjoy for some time.

Dein Kommi hat auch das gewisse Etwas auch wenn meine Duftrichtung eine ganz andere ist:).

Schön geschrieben, Pokal. :) Klingt intressant, jedoch habe ich manchmal auch meine Schwierigkeiten mit Sandelholz...
