I love this perfume !

Magical fragrance capable of evoking positive and joyful memories in me. An energetic and sparkling cocktail of fruits that dance around a flowery heart and a woody / leather base. At the beginning we find the passion fruit, the pear (which in this perfume I sincerely adore), which marry well with a flowery / incensed heart (attention, distant incense is not a clerical incense) which together with jasmine, magnolia and currant make it a real beating heart of this perfume. To close the immense and lasting drydown of this fragrance is a woody / leather base that well support all the wonderful structure of this perfume. I am not a lover of fruity perfumes but here I had to change my mind absolutely to the point of having immediately bought a bottle of it all for myself that especially in this beautiful period I enjoy wearing and envelops me with its magical fruity, fresh, juicy scents , wonderful and flowery. A beautiful fragrance with a wise use of raw materials by Lorenzo with absolute and high quality materials as well as, being an Extrai De Parfum, in very high concentrations.

Honestly, I love it and I will never be able to do without it again.

Absolutely recommended for all lovers of fresh, fruity, flowery notes.

To really wear on any occasion you want.

For any age and is absolutely unisex.

Very long duration and wake, Promoted!

Pure Amazing Xtacy

I thought the P was for the Pear and passion fruit, A for Amber and the X for unisex but no, after wearing this again i realized it stands for something else, Pure Amazing XTC (ecstasy) , because that is what this fragrance invokes in me! No i am not saying this has MDMA in it just like neither does any of Aaron Terence Hughes fragrances, but they have MDMA as a note and i believe it is not only because one of the chemicals in those fragrances can be turned in to it, but rather that the fragrance invokes that energetic feeling without the use or need of narcotics.

So this has been compared to Erba Pura which i don't have but i do have another it is compared to which is Don't Ask Me Permission and i love the smell of both. How i would separate the 2 is that this is truly a unisex fragrance with a slight lean more to a masculine side, while Don't Ask Me Permission leans way more feminine especially because of the peach note. One more i could compare to is Pacific Park but again that is more feminine.

When i smelled Don't Ask Me Permission i fell in love with that scent, but i don't have a girlfriend that i could give it to, to wear. If i did i would without a doubt, because i would love to smell that on a girl, i really would. When i found PAX not that long after testing Don't Ask Me Permission with it's leather and wood notes in the base and no peach note, i thought this may be a more masculine version that i could pull off, the wait for this to arrive from Italy took ages and i was so excited and wondering if this would be the magic unisex or masculine version of Don't Ask Me Permision i had just fell in love with but had nobody that i could give it to smell it on them so when PAX arrived and i was correct, of course i was just over the moon! This is one of these white musk, fruity kind of fragrances that i can wear with ease and the thing i also love about it is that it is very long lasting and projects really well. This is something i always look for in a fragrance. It would be good especially for summer temperatures where most others would struggle in the high heat, while PAX absolutely thrives!

From what i have read this is a much better performing Erba Pura, and it comes in Extrait De Parfum concentration so that will be why.

If you have tried Lorenzo's latest summer fragrance which was the highly hyped Summer Hammer then when you go through all the stages and get to the last stage that sticks with you for the rest of its longevity then that is close to what you are going to get with PAX, they are not exactly the same but close enough that you can layer PAX on top of Summer Hammer when it gets to that stage.

Summer Hammer has more stages than PAX but its projection power wavers between the different stages and by the time you get to the stage that relates to PAX it becomes pretty much a skin scent and is the perfect time to then spray PAX on for the rest of the day boosting all the lovely, sweet juicy notes. You only need a few sprays of this and if I smelled this on someone else and didn't know what it was i would have to ask them what it is and where to get it and in the UK people are not as forward coming as in other countries so when people compliment you or feel the need to ask something like that then you know you have something special.

Honestly, when i smell this i just get this immense feeling of joy and almost on the verge of ecstasy.

Like an other reviewer said, this fragrance just has this sweet juicy energetic feel to it that will definitely have you in a good mood ready to go out and enjoy the summer weather. If you like fruity fragrances like i do i can promise you this will be the one that gives you that oomph feeling and you won't feel like you do with some fragrances where you can feel like something is missing to give it that spark. This is complete and ready to go. I wish i wrote this earlier in the summer but hey, people in the lower hemisphere will be coming in to summer soon so maybe this is one you should be picking up in preparation for your summer parties and night outs. Not only that i couldn't find the words to describe it in all honesty until i wore it again today and i just had to try let other people know just how great this fragrance really is.

SCORES
Scent 10/10 Just gorgeous!

Longevity 10/10 Eternal - This will last all day long in the heat with no loss in projection.

Projection 10/10 Everyone is going to be smelling this on you!

Bottle 7/10 This is its only downfall imo, the atomizer is plastic, and the bottle is a bit boring imo. (It's the juice that counts though, right?)

Price OK, this is roughly £130 per 50ml but you are getting an Eternal, long lasting, high projecting amazing scent that doesn't need many sprays, and it is Extrait concentration so to me this gets the rating of Good Value! 9/10

A big heart

I smelled Pax already knowing several fragrances by Lorenzo Pazzaglia, for whom I have immense respect. The opening of this citrusy and "peppery" fragrance invests me with a sense of joy, of well-being, then tasty and fruity scents arrive, not too sweet and very pleasant, carried even higher by a wonderful flowery bouquet (in the pyramid I read the presence of magnolia, which I usually don't like, but which definitely has its reason here). The drydown is pure relax for me, sweet (not too much) and always characterized by extreme good taste in the composition and choice of notes.
Durability, wake and compliments guaranteed, decidedly unisex.
“Pax is the heart of Lorenzo Pazzaglia” well, I think it is precisely the most appropriate definition: the self-portrait of a great artist through an excellent perfume.

serenity

A Latin name meaning "serenity," this fragrance embodies peace, accented with fruit, a touch of incense, and hints of leather.
It is crafted from measured contrasts: sweet, sunlit fruitiness intertwines with transparent incense, settling into a warm base.
It feels as though Lorenzo Pazzaglia is painting an olfactory portrait of himself in a beautifully contradictory yet harmonious manner.
From the very first spray, you’re greeted with a burst of passion fruit, black grape, and pear, which are balanced by acidic undertones and a hint of black pepper—this sets the rhythm and keeps the sweetness in check.
As the initial notes subside, the heart reveals a clear-toned incense that pairs with jasmine and magnolia, complemented by a hint of cardamom and blackcurrant, shifting the scent from a fruity delight to a more mature, deeper character.
In the background, a woven base of white musk, amber, and Madagascar vanilla, interlaced with polished leather and oud, provides an elegant, masculine presence that avoids any roughness. The fragrance performs well, with longevity exceeding eight hours and a medium to above-medium projection during the first two hours, before settling into a subtle, polite aura.
This perfume is well-suited for evenings in Baghdad or similar cities during summer, early autumn, or mild spring, provided that application is moderate in warm weather.
It's an excellent choice for dinners, semi-formal meetings, or even office wear in an air-conditioned environment when applied lightly.
Its character is mature and fruity, yet enveloped in the dignity of incense and leather, distinguishing it from its counterparts: it’s less green than Ficus in Fabula, less sugary than Choco Raptor, and more subdued and elegant than the exuberant Summer Hammer.
The strength of this fragrance lies in the balance between its fruity notes and transparent incense, paired with a refined base that offers persistence and sophistication.
It may not appeal to those seeking dense church incense or raw, overt oud, but it remains a distinctive presence within the modern fruit fragrance landscape.
This enchanting perfume has a unique charm.
It begins playfully with fruity notes that feel like a lighthearted conversation.
Gradually, it adds a refined touch of smoky undertones, and finally, it wraps up with the warm embrace of leather, vanilla, and amber, extending the evening's experience with you.

Seductive Fruits in Noble Attire

I had the opportunity to test the fragrance some time ago at the perfumery in Cologne.. what can I say, I had been searching for something fruity for a long time and already had Erba Pura on my wish list... I also inquired about Kirke with the extremely knowledgeable salesperson.

However, this fragrance cannot be compared to either of those.

The scent has a rich bouquet of dark berries that exude a heavy and juicy sweetness. Without, however, drifting even slightly into the overly sweet direction..

Its citrus notes give it a light freshness kick, while musk and amber make it appear elegant and opulent... The vanilla also fits perfectly into the mix, but here it is just an underlying nuance.
Rounded off with barely perceptible leather and a hint of oud, the fragrance becomes a grand composition for me. For me, it is the most luxurious, fruitily elegant, velvety, and creamy combination I have had the pleasure of smelling so far.
Dark, heavy fruits brightened by light floral and fresh notes - - in a noble suit of fine velvet, ready for even the most festive occasion..

So noble and elegant does this fragrance come across. A hint of this essence seems to last for eternity.. What longevity...
