Cipresso di Toscana - The great disappointment of Aqua di Parma
Refreshing like a summer breeze, invigorating, radiant and aromatic. So is the fragrance Cipresso di Toscana
advertised in the advertising text. In addition, the images of a bright blue sky over the steep coasts of the Italian Mediterranean. Ah!
To jump in beautiful! In addition I paint myself the wonderful smell of cypresses and pines. The whole tangy fresh, as one
actually knows from Aqua di Parma.
But what is that, what comes out of the bottle? After repeated application, I can only say, the fragrance must be
be tilted! This is not an eau de toilette! This smells heavy and oppressive, musty and old from the start.
The Italian interpretation of the classic fougère accord? According to my research, a fougère consists of
Lavender, bergamot and geranium. Brut by Fabergé or Bleu de Chanel are mentioned here as typical representatives. A barber shop fragrance.
But what comes out of the bottle has nothing to do with it! To describe it as a sluggish, sticky herbal cream would already be a praise!
Even the creator of this creation is wholly unsympathetic to me. Bertrand Duchaufour, when asked what his favorite scent is, replies
it was "earth." That fits with this herbal all-around toilet tab smell called Cipresso di Toscana.
So, huge disappointment. But the fragrance I can also gain something positive. After about 2 hours, it has evaporated. Really, nothing
like away with it!
