High end hand lotion
Leo opens with a bright, creamy-sweet kumquat/orange - after a few moments the brightness and sharpness of these notes is replaced with a soft, woody floral base. Quite feminine, it smells like a high-end hand lotion, slightly powdery with musk and tonka coming through. Performance is pretty good for this type of fragrance, usually they stick to skin. But the scent itself is a bit lacking in my opinion, too generic and tame.

Summery-Cared-Creamy and Airy
After a long time, here’s a review of a Terenzi fragrance, as I recently purchased one after several months of abstinence from this brand: Leo from the wonderful Luna collection. I already own Cassiopea and Orion from this collection. Price-wise, the MSRP is quite expensive, but most can be found for 50% less. Regularly, these are a hefty €285, but as mentioned, most can be bought for around €140. It’s worth it if you appreciate the signature of Terenzi fragrances.
With a score of 7.3, Leo is rated quite poorly for niche standards. The rating doesn’t sound too bad, but for niche standards, it’s a bit of a penalty. Many Terenzi fragrances are positioned in this range, so I would say: Make up your own mind. Many here don’t like this style or have a dislike for the brand. Personally, I find this brand very catchy, modern, and of good quality. For the modern casual style, I think this brand is top-notch.

The bottles of this brand are great, especially due to the oversized cap. Only the sticker looks a bit cheap, which could have made this brand appear more beautiful. The cap with the constellation is quite impressive in the Luna collection. This Leo represents the zodiac sign Leo.
Now to the most important part: The scent. Under inspiration, "Musk Therapy | Initio" is right at the forefront. Even though these two fragrances have some parallels, this one is not so close in DNA. The commonalities are clearly the creamy-light fluffy musk notes, the quark-like mandarin, and the clean flowers. In terms of style, it’s similar, but in terms of DNA, it slightly reminds me of "Decas | XerJoff".
The Luna collection is overall white in color, and this color fits perfectly here. A clean and well-groomed scent that can be wonderfully worn in spring and summer. The start features a wonderful fruity-sweet-quarky mandarin paired with other citrus notes. The mandarin is very present in the opening and delights with this great quarky-creamy clean DNA. Some floral notes follow, but these floral elements never become too feminine or overpowering. It remains a clean-bright scent with this fluffy-bright musk and a hint of exoticism. There’s also a slight bubblegum vibe present, but never too overpowering or cheap. With this citrus freshness in the background, it’s a great DNA that never becomes too heavy or overwhelming. In the base, there’s some benzoin, which is nicely rounded and slightly balsamic. Along with some wood, tonka sweetness, and of course, well-groomed light musk that is present throughout the entire duration. For me, it’s an absolutely wonderful scent that, in my opinion, is suitable for all occasions due to its clean aura.
Performance is quite good, especially for this type of fragrance. You get a fresh clean scent that lasts a minimum of 8 hours with initially really good sillage. It’s worth it if you want to perform fresh and clean in everyday life.

Overall, a great scent for both ladies and gentlemen who enjoy this "white" well-groomed freshness. This slightly exotic DNA will surely appeal to most people, especially since such fragrances are rarely represented in the mainstream.

From first love to pure repulsion!
At the beginning, I must mention that I come from the countryside! And I mean real countryside. With everything that goes along with it! The cows are next door, and you not only know all the people by name but also the cows! Something like that. In any case, we don't have a perfumery here. Not even a drugstore! Therefore, visits to the perfumery are not only rare for me but also something really special!
I received a 20% code for all brands at the perfumery P..... (I'm not sure if I can mention that here) by mail. They had VIP Days. My sister lives in Dortmund, and I casually suggested that I visit her with Mom. So, armed with my voucher and full of excitement, I headed to the perfumery. I started to tremble because I saw that there was now a huge corner with niche fragrances! Byredo, Terenzi, Xerjoff, Initio, so many new brands. I turned bright red and was actually overwhelmed right away.
A really very, very friendly and knowledgeable saleswoman was by my side. She quickly noticed that I already knew quite a bit and was totally open and interested in scents! She took her time with me. After a while, we arrived at Terenzi. She said, "So! I think I can gauge you a bit! May I just spray something on you that will accompany you for the rest of the day?!" Of course, bring it on. I thought the woman was great. Honestly. I would have loved to have a coffee with her right away. She sprayed Leo by Terenzi on me! By the way, she mentioned that it was her favorite scent for going out!
Inhale, pause for a moment. I got huge eyes! What is this?!! I had actually never smelled anything like it. I could sense citrus notes, but I wasn't sure. The lady said, "It's great, isn't it?! I knew you would like it!" She was right. I found it amazing! Extraordinary. Fairly speaking, I must say that the opening was intense. A bit biting and just strong. The typical Terenzi synthetics, you either love them or you hate them.
Shortly after, the magic of this fragrance unfolded: Creamy, powdery citrus notes. Soooo beautifully blended. Polished, elegant, confident. Striking!!
I was looking forward to testing it further throughout the day.
By the way, I bought Animalique. Oh man, I was so happy about the purchase that I almost cried.
But then this: Mom and my sister were waiting for me in a department store. Proudly, I walked over and presented my bag. Mom squinted her eyes, even needed a tissue. "My God!! What is that?!!? You didn't actually buy that, did you?!" And my sister started sneezing. Hatschi, Hatschi. "Wow Anna, that really doesn't work at all!! Did you really buy that?" - they smelled Leo in the air! I said that I bought another one. Both were very happy about that. At first, I found it amusing, but in the restaurant, Mom asked me to please sit a bit further away because she couldn't breathe because of the scent. She was unfortunately serious. Accordingly, the drive back home was quite tense! An hour and a half of complaining about my beloved Leo.
A few days later, I got a decant. The scent wouldn't leave my mind!
I sprayed it on again. Terenzi synthetics, authentic, soft citrus. Powder. Powdery musk, powder fluff. An adult cloud full of energy and confidence. I loved it. It drew me in!
Mom doesn't need to know about this!

Inspired by the zodiac sign Leo, yes-yes.
Inspired by Initio, Ascendant Musk Therapy.
Just as mandarin-y and creamy. H&S is definitely stronger.

The citrus gang takes the stage:
Musk base shakes,
synth joy bubbles,
until the chemical wood saw kicks in
and everything goes out of tune.

I don't think it's bad. The top and heart notes start somehow at the same time. A blend of citrus notes and flowers, relatively dense, drifting....

Light rose and violet soapiness with sweet lemon cream on top. Wild mix. Feels somewhat forced and not well done. Might be good for ladies.

Summery fruit bomb!
Normally not my thing, but Leo grabbed me and convinced me. Not too sweet but very fresh.

Absolute insider tip from Terenzi. Fresh-creamy scent that is very well received and not at all overpowering.
