Trussardi's new land: 10 blockbusters in ONE bottle
The commercial blurp: "Vibrant Italian elegance, refined and unique virility, intense and timeless sensuality". Will you be surprised if I tell you that nothing of the kind is the case? This average scent smells like so many other blockbusters we've all smelled before, it's a bit of everything, mimicking aspects of "Eternity for men" (topnotes), "Azzaro pour homme" (attempted fougere-aspect with a hint of lavender) and "Fan by Fendi" in the base... the problem being that all of these fragrances smell better. "My Land" is a hackneyed version of mainstream-fragrances in poor dilution. Staying power is low (2 hs max) and the overall effect is neither "intense" nor "unique", it's simply dull. You know, "My Land" doesn't smell bad at all, but it is devoid of any creativity (and I don't even like the bottle). One could of course argue that this boring fragrance is better than nothing...and one could also say that it doesn't repulse, disgust or cause any harm. But I'd rather save my money and get a bottle of some decent stuff, and why not some vintage Trussardi Uomo?
