Sunsation, I love you!
In fact, today I can say for myself that my first 10 rating has been found.
Getting Sunsation was no easy feat, I had been looking to try this fragrance at least once for over a year. But recently I had the opportunity to purchase a bottle. Thanks to a very fair Parfumo also at a great price, which made me very happy.
This fragrance was exclusive to the city of Tel Aviv, it was / is only available there.
By the way, Tel Aviv is a great city! I was there 6 years ago. Young, dynamic, hospitable, somewhat expensive and outstanding cuisine. The people were great and I still like to think back to Israel today, where I was able to accompany a professional project.
It is all the more fitting that not only the country and the people but also the exclusive Tel Aviv fragrance completely won me over.
But now to the fragrance.
Sunsation certainly has similarities to Rosso Pompei, and yet it is different in some details.
Rosso Pompei, who is surprised, was already one of the few 9.5s for me.
Of course, you either like Terenzi or you don't, but I'm a big fan.
While Rosso Pompei starts with a very strong, fruity grape note, Sunsation is somewhat calmer and less loud. The start is characterized by bergamot and orange, which is clearly perceptible. Underpinned by a subtle spiciness, presumably due to the juniper. Wonderful!
A very subtle and less dominant floral base gradually joins in, which I would describe as white. In this respect, I think I can smell lily of the valley and jasmine in particular. For me, this does not result in any drift towards "feminine", as the notes described at the beginning remain constant.
This DNA is encased in a gentle, soft and harmonious woody note.
I don't really smell patchouli here, although this note can certainly rumble.
In contrast to Rosso Pompei, Sunsation is much softer, somewhat quieter.
The strong fruity note is elegantly flattered with floral notes, so that I perceive Sunsation as much more elegant. Both are clearly distinguishable from each other.
As a rule, compliments are not a criterion for me in a review, but during yesterday's visit to the dentist's surgery I was asked about the fragrance several times. To be honest, this rarely happens to me, but according to the dentist and the dental hygienist, this fragrance was perceived as "extraordinary". They actually described it as "fruity, elegant and masculine", which I was very pleased about.
Some terenzis slip quite far into the feminine range, becoming very floral. Here, however, the fragrance retains its pithy spiciness in the background, which I think is what makes it so perfect.
Projection / silage and persistence are very solid, but less "aggressive" than the Rosso Pompei, for example. This makes this rarity suitable for almost all occasions.
With the story surrounding Tel Aviv, my enthusiasm for Terenzi and this fragrance DNA, it is therefore a logical consequence that Sunsation is my first 10 rating, even if 0.5 points are certainly of an emotional nature. But let's be honest, without emotions it would be boring! :)
