A sensory journey from a bright, invigorating morning to a serene and reflective afternoon
The name alone alludes to a quite familiar place, but thanks to the rip into the scent this is not a typical bar, but most likely representational of a lazily warm, sun soaked Italian bar, where the air is heavy with citrus and the scents of flowering trees.
This scent opens with a bright, effervescent blast of citrus notes. You almost feel the fizz and pop of fresh yuzu and zeste of grapefruit. From first impression, it feels incredibly refreshing and uplifting from a scent that awakens all of our senses in a resounding sense of liveliness, as it remedies the dullness of everyday monochromatic grey. This citrus accord is bright and cheerful, it is also not sharp or sour. It feels joyous almost like pouring cold prosecco on a hot day.
As the scent develops, a contemporary aromatic rose accord arrives. This is not a delicate, weak rose, but rather a full-bodied, rich, aromatic, lively and complete dimensional rose, with many variables of rose variety every capable of demonstrating a different reflection! This rose is fresh and vibrant, with hints that are spicy, and shades of reds and whites represented in many variables. The rose here, feels like the heartbeat of the fragrance, its the main focus of the fragrance and is a pause for the reflection process representing the core essence of floral joy and sensual relaxation.
The base of the fragrance is where the stage becomes exciting. A rich co-extraction of nard and cocoa makes an interesting perspective here. The earthy, slightly peppery nard adds the depth to the fragrance with the acidic sweetness of criollo cocoa articulating a dark grounding to the brightness of the top and heart notes. This base is the reason for the long lasting persistence and adds a level of sophistication that almost bears a meditative state. It is an odd combination that eliminates negative thoughts and inspires one to let go and receive simple pleasures in life.
