Cold ocean water
This fragrance is amazing & one of the deepest aquatic fragrances Ive ever got my nose on. This isn't the typical, "freshie, that smells a bit like some sort of body wash or soap".
This is a fragrance that's deep & rich.
It starts off with a bit of synthetic'ness but that's at first spray, give it a good 45secs-min. & see where it goes, to this very citrusy-aquatic. That doesn't stay citrusy very long. Maybe about 10min. & then it goes into what the fragrance is. & that's an Aquatic with a beautiful, fresh, slightly salty, with a bit of an amber accord. This isn't your typical Aquatic, I can't say that enough. Once it's calm down, it's got a touch of woodiness even mixing in with the amber really well. The hedione & seaweed make it ambery/salty/Aquatic with the mix of ambroxan that gives it that touch of woodiness & it lasts!
I'd say this fragrance sticks to the skin for about 9-10 hours. Goes into a skin scent after about an hour or so. Cloths about 12-13 hours. The sillage isn't very strong though, but it projects better off the cloths than the skin. At least in my experience.
It's an all yr round fragrance in my opinion. I'd wear it at night more in the colder months. Because it gives me a very heavy, deep ocean vibe that's freezing cold water. LOL idk why but it's where the frag takes me.
I'm becoming a big fan of this fragrance house Orto Parisi. I think what they do is really good work.
Also, side note, the caps on these atomizers, are awesome! They match the theme/vibe that the fragrance is trying to send.
I'd def say, you gotta check em out but it can't be youngins. I'd say this house is for the 30-40 & up club.
But by all means, beware

Better than expected & worth it
The energy has it
Versace Eros Energy is amazing, for a "affordable" designer, it does its job & does it well.
.
First thing, yes, it's somewhat a clone or inspiration from Creed Aventus but it goes in a slightly different direction & it's all about the citrus.
It comes off a tad bit with the combination citrus/ambroxan/black currant that makes it seem slightly like Aventus but it turns into a juicy lemon head hard candy.
It smells so damn sweet, yet still refreshing, so in that way, the "Energy" is a proper way to describe it. I really enjoy it & it seems that it's pretty damn versatile. I'd wear it most times, most months of the yr.
I want to see how it smells in the colder weather but I imagine it's just a little more ambroxan in the top than anything.
.
The dry down is very pleasant, the citrus takes a chill pill & it becomes a more ambroxan, leathery/patchouli that is a bit dirty but crisp & the citrus/fruitiness is still there in the background.
On my skin it seems to last about 5-6 hours noticeably. It projects for a good 1 & ½ - 2 hours, projects a bit better off the cloths & IT GETS COMPLIMENTS!
Eassssy blind buy & a great fragrance to start a collection, add to & isn't very redundant of a buy. Like I said, goes in its own direction from Creed Aventus & I'd gladly wear this before Creed on most days because Creed Aventus doesn't last very long. (2-3 hours)
.
Another thing. Great fragrance to layer with some leathery fragrance or something that can add well to the dry down like a nice woodiness. Enjoy this & find the energy!

This thing of ours.....
Vesevo is not for the little kids.
If you understand it, you're a part of this thing....

This fragrance automatically puts u into the true "fragrance enthusiast" category. This scent you won't catch everywhere but if you catch it in the air on someone, you'll most likely want to know what it is & what house it's from.
It's a mature banger that works for people, seemingly 27 yrs old & up. Older gentlemen in their mid 40s will absolutely love this.
Me being in my early/mid 30s, I absolutely love it but I'm an "old soul" at heart.
.
When you first spray it on, you get a nice does of cotton candy with cashmere wood. & it develops into a very sensual, woody/spicy, almost sexy/dirty, fragrance that is easily understood in the video I broke it down in, here:

Gucci high stepping into the Niche realm.
I've had this fragrance for about 2-3 years now & everytime I pull it out for a sniff, I say "why don't I wear this more". The reason being, you don't just wear this fragrance anywhere. It's not an everyday fragrance. This fragrance is classy, masculine & isn't offensive, surprisingly.....
.
When you first spray this you get a nice dose of raspberry, rose & spice from the saffron & it's all within this beautiful cloud of Oud that is just so smooth. I believe it's the combination of the orange blossom that helps keep it at bay & not so aggressive. Because if you know Oud, it can really be an in your face, fragrance. That can come off as dirty, super Smokey & obviously woody. Most frag houses will always combine rose & oud with saffron but with this fragrance that's not all you get here & that's also very nice, & separates this fragrance from like a More Than Words, Join the Club by Xerjoff.
.
This fragrance I feel really is an all year round fragrance. Amazingly it does work in summer, AT NIGHT. I definitely would NEVER wear this in the day time unless to like a wedding in the fall/winter. It's very situational, & rather than wear this to say the store or running errands. This is a fragrance you're wearing to show you have taste/class, so weddings, dinner dates, night outs, etc.
Lasts for hours, probably 8-9 hours, projects for about 2 hours or so & when it turns into a skin scent, still very present. That seems very intentional, considering this fragrance doesn't project very loud in the first place. Probably about a foot or two of projection.
.
It's definitely a masterpiece in its own right, Gucci's masterpiece. Because I dnt consider any of their fragrance nearly as great as this one & for good reason. Gucci isn't very consistent with their fragrances. They're ok, but nothing too crazy, inspiring or worth mentioning in most instances.
It's def more niche than anything else they've done. & it's an easy blind buy, for anyone over the age of 26 going into the 30s. A mature young person may love it but either way, happy hunting!

Weekend in the Hamptons
This fragrance is an amazing unisex scent. It combines minerals, spice & aquatics & some how makes it classy.
.
I also, for the life of me, will not understand why everyone says it has weak performance. This fragrance isn't NUCLEAR but it doesn't make it weak. I put it on today at 12:30pm. & we're going towards 4:30, & it's still very present on my skin. It may last longer on the skin than the cloths but I'd have to test that theory.
For instance, I put it on today & layered it/combined it somewhat with Kilian Vodka on the Rocks. & I gave both their own top of my hand spray. Kilian on the left hand & Jo Malone on the right hand. & here we are 4 hours later, the Wood Sage & sea salt very much present on My hands, was catching whiffs of it until about 30mins ago. Which means it projected for about 2-3 hours, to some degree. The Vodka on the rocks, I can still smell on my hand but it is much more faint & a tad harder to pick up thoroughly. I also stopped catching whiffs of it about an hour or two ago. It projected for about an hour or so.
I bring this up because on this site, Vodka on the Rocks is said to have better longevity than this fragrance & I disagree, at least for the day time. & this isn't the first time I've thought that.
.
The musky dry down on this fragrance is wonderful & a lot of people think it leans slightly more feminine but I think it's pretty 50-50. It works for a man with confidence too & it's a great situational fragrance. Summer vacation, a weekend get away to Nantucket or a "all white" outfit party in the Hamptons. Could even work for a day time wedding. Enjoy this in summer/spring even maybe a nice, easy fall day.
.
It's Saturday afternoon in a bottle for those memorable days
