Onda Vero Profumo 2010 Eau de Parfum

Very helpful Review
Horse Balm is Available Cheaper Too
First of all:
The extrait versions of the three Vero Profumo perfumes have divided the perfume world - some are enthusiastic about the quality and the scents, while others report stinky experiences.
The EdP versions are said to be more wearable and suitable for everyday use, yet still retain the character of the extraits.
Well, I was curious and ordered a sample set of the three EdP versions. I was particularly eager to try Onda, as no review could give me a particularly good impression of the scent.
This is what you can expect: A saddle. A dark, old saddle. And horse balm. Somewhere, a horse is galloping through the scent. It rides through a forest, over damp ground, moist moss. It smells dark, pungent, almost musty.
Can a perfume be more repulsive? I can hardly imagine it. At the same time, there is a strange fascination emanating from Onda. It is interesting and simultaneously disgusting.
Is the scent wearable? In my eyes, no. If at all, then only for a very self-confident and "robust" woman whose presence already attracts attention. Either a grande dame of the old school or a matron.
The quality, on the other hand (as with the other two scents), is excellent, and for that reason, I give it a 40% rating.
To all perfume enthusiasts who are looking for ever more unusual and extreme perfume creations, I heartily recommend the Vero Profumo Trio, especially Onda.
For everyone else: Do yourselves and your environment a favor and stay away from this scent!
Overall, the hype surrounding the Vero Profumo scents remains a mystery to me (as a non-perfume enthusiast of the aforementioned category). The other two scents (EdP) are not as repulsive as Onda, but they also did not blow me away with their beauty.

"Sensation seeking behavior" :-) Just to find out what falls under the art of perfumery, you could give it a try ;-)

I don't think I'm "robust" enough for this scent :-) Although, following the motto: sensation seeking behavior, it might be worth a try.
