Quattro Pizzi I First tuberose fragrance from Casamorati I Feminine Energy & Summer Vibes I ATTENTION: Don't buy Hype, test it first!
Based on the first reviews from the perfume fair, I was expecting a lot from Casamorati - Quattro Pizzi; it was said to be a beautiful tuberose-coconut fragrance with other exciting notes such as rum, tobacco etc.
It has to be said that the notes in and of themselves naturally set a certain expectation - so I was all the more disappointed by the actual realization. I think that the current rating will also drop to between 7.2 - 7.4, as the first "hypers" will also have to justify the price that many have paid.
Now to my personal feelings and please respect other opinions, perfume is always subjective:
- For me, the fragrance starts off really feminine with a tuberose focus; if you want, you can smell a very, very, very small amount of rum, but hey, no untrained nose can actually smell that effectively. A slight peppery note with the tuberose, yes, I'm getting used to that. This peppery note is balanced out by the slightly sweet davana, but as a "normal person" you can't really smell that much of it.
- This minimal spiciness disappears fairly quickly, however, as the tuberose spreads out more and more and exudes a more feminine sweetness. Coconut, yes, is slightly noticeable with the tuberose, but the coconut is held back by the tuberose; really extremely restrained. The tuberose is not warm like in Decas, but rather on the fresher sunscreen side due to the coconut.
- In the drydown, the tuberose is then encased in light tobacco and the tonka bean takes it in a slightly, but really slightly sweet direction - but here too, tuberose is the main player.
- The projection is quite alright, mid-field. The durability is slightly above average - but neither is outstanding. Not bad, that's just the way it is.
The comparisons to Naxos are absolutely incomprehensible to me; if then a feminine Decas; I don't want to be derogatory, but the Casamorati - Quattro Pizzi is clearly far inferior to the Naxos olfactorily, let's keep it real; it's a fine tuberose scent with a little coconut here, a little spice there, but nothing really "earth-shattering" from my point of view, at best you effectively get a little sunscreen and beach vibe here if you're creative.
Definitely test it and don't buy the hype: you may find that this DNA appeals to you massively, and that's fair enough. But with this fragrance and the amount of money involved, I wouldn't recommend buying it blind.

Slightly oriental cologne? Nice, but the spark doesn't want to jump over...
