Grapefruit...again...but different...better ?
In the search for a summer fragrance for 2024, you can't quite avoid grapefruit...the sales figures for Pomelo Sorrento are through the roof...let's see if there's an alternative...
This one starts with a really sour, tangy grapefruit...briefly intense...vetiver notes underline this tanginess right at the beginning and soften it into a slightly earthy note...some Szechuan pepper is more likely to be suspected than recognized...
This effervescence/acidity quickly subsides and makes way for a delicate peony - underpinned with angelica / osmanthus....round, not too sweet or even obtrusive....
After some time, a hint of mild cedar remains, mate - vetiver now more distinct...less earthy...and that definitely lasts for some time..
Definitely a summer fragrance - if you think it smells like grapefruit for a really long time, you will be disappointed - citrus aromas unfortunately don't last very long on the skin - nevertheless, its freshness persists for a surprisingly long time.....
Radiance at the beginning and briefly clear - then it becomes more discreet to almost restrained..
If you are looking for an alternative to the Gritti product for the summer - not a bad idea to try this one out

Peppergin in the Rose Garden
In the French rose garden we are invited for a glass of gin. The clock shows shortly before five and the thermometer 31 degrees. Spontaneously, a fragrance must still be selected: Poivre Pomelo could well fit...
But after the first sip I have to find out shocked that the fragrance does not develop as I would have imagined or wished. So with haste emptied the glass, got up and said goodbye. "I'm afraid I have to go now! It was my pleasure. Until next time!" All that remains is a soapy whiff of citrus gin.

Poivre Pomelo can convince in the opening all with a summery freshness. I must immediately think of an aromatic gin with a few dashes of grapefruit juice, creating a tart fruit note. Harmoniously, the intense sweet pepper can then be perceived, which provides a tasty spiciness. In fact, I can almost taste the scent on my tongue. With lemon pepper in the nose, the rose garden is now entered and the first disappointment sets in: The flowers have fallen victim to the heat and only give off a subtle, wilted hint. Instead, the garden earth comes to the fore with a cedar note. The gin now seems full-bodied, not to say befogging, due to the addition of mate leaves. Still light peppery notes add variety. In this initial period, the fragrance actually impresses with a plastic aroma spectrum.
However, it loses already after five to ten minutes in sharpness and character. A floral note (I smell peach) gains the upper hand, along with the sour grapefruit, and the fragrance remains arbitrary for the rest of its life.

Finally, my initial horror stems from the fact that after a strong opening, the fragrance becomes relatively monotonous and veers into the sporty-active in a penetrating way. I miss a more coherent implementation of the basic idea and the courage to the (in approaches very successful) pepper note.
