Direct inspiration and 30% more ?
So, it is no secret that some of the famous Terenzi creations smell like established scents from the Market .. I am looking at you Kirké and Bürdel !

So, the V Canto line was not under my radar at all, and the bottles are not easy to find or test, therefore a blind buy for not such a good rated line is not an option.

I got some nice samples for Giambellino, Guercino and Misiarte and after I tried this highly rated Naxos wannabe, I had to write a review ... like a first impression, actually.

It does smell similar to Naxos, much more floral and less honey like .. the scent is an absolute joy to wear and I would consider buying a bottle of this, as the scent profile is very nice and airy.

But where it hits me hard is the price: 315€ at the time of writing this review !

I mean, come on Cereria Terenzi .. you copy a scent which was copied originally from Pure Havane from Mugler.
Only God knows why L´Oreal decided to kill the Mugler brand and discontinue everything from there .. but that played well in the end for Xerjoff. I know that Mazzolari has a copy paste scent for Naxos and now V Canto too?

I see no point in this release, as we already have Naxos at 245€ for the 100ml still, who is this for .. maybe V Canto knows something I don´t.

A versus with Naxos will follow soon.

What do you think?

A slightly flowery Naxos. Very beautiful!
The Giambellino is already relatively reminiscent of Xerjoff Naxos. Not compelling in the top note, but definitely after a short time.

The fragrance starts with this great citrusy mix of different citrus fruits, but everything is very relaxed and soft. A pleasant sweetness is also immediately noticeable. After a relatively short time, the recognizable Xerjoff Naxos vibes come through. There is no honey listed, but something in this fragrance gives you such a feeling.
Plus these super pleasant floral notes. It's not overpowering at all either, just pleasant.
It gives the fragrance a certain depth. It also creates a great creamy impression.

The Giambellino is super elegant, serious, soft and beautiful.
Compared to Naxos, it is simply a little softer and more floral.

The performance is also really good! It holds and projects well.

Nice thing!

The better Naxos ?
I got this fragrance from a friend yesterday and tracked it down.

At first, it doesn't smell or
Almost not at all like naxos.
After a short time, however, an incredibly beautiful ...softer naxos emerges which for me personally is more appealing and more beautiful than the naxos.
Great quality.
I found it a little more floral than the naxos which I don't think is a bad thing either.
I love the lavender in this fragrance which in my opinion is better and more beautiful than the naxos.

H/S I don't need to say much about it as it is an extrait de parfum.

I think so far this "naxos" is the more successful and more beautiful brother of naxos.

Have fun trying it.

The lavender-tobacco profile is nice but all too familiar. The caramel overdose really does not make it better.
