Solarissimo Favignana

Bellissima Favignana!!! Bellissima Sicilia!!!!!!!! The immense and hard to describe day in one of the most blessed island on Earth,the sweet warmth of the pastries,the carnal warmth of the southern citizens,the warmth of a joyful day on a lost landscape...........

Nice unusual sweet scent, to me it smells like orange marmalade in sugar with expensive vanilla rum and something smoky. It's a shame it's been discontinued.

This is really fresh fragrance with moderate amount of depth into it. At opening there's very strong presence of sweetish, little bit bitter lemon and bit of ginger next to a pirates rum bottle. Gotta say i find that lemon note pleasing, i have smelt more synthetic ones and this is actually closest to real lemon in a fragrance i have smelt. Ginger is very faint and is there only to give it a bit edge. Reason i called it a 'pirates' rum is, because it is romantisized version of rum, what you would expect jack sparrow to drink since he seems to drink it all the time. It is not scent of real rum, nor it is meant to be, nor i would want it to be. Haven't heard any woman ever say that after your bar-run, you would smell good with that 40%alc rum on your shirt. I wonder why. Compared to that image, this rum is more like disney-version of rum. Recognisable as rum, but stripped out of that -hey honey, im home - at 4 am - vibes. Drydown is more vanillic, sweetish scent. Note of lemon wont last long, and since top notes fade pretty quickly (1hour tops), it gives room fast to depth, created beautifully with base notes of amber and cedar (tobacco i cant find with my nose). Sugar and rum are pretty much always present in this fragrance, so if you dont like sweet scents, this is not for you. I wondered before blind-buying this, what does sugar smell? In this, best way to describe it is bit marshmellowy, heated sugar. It is present for entire life cycle of the fragrance, more or less, but it is not overly sweet for me, fits in perfect with other notes. As i said, decided to blindbuy this since in my experience Azzaro is designer that is affordable, with great performance and most important, they make great smelling fragrances. However, as i said, you have to be friend of sweet scents to justify blind-buy. Sillage is strong in the first ~hour, then it levels to moderate for ~3 hours, slowly decreasing to intimate fragrance for last few hours. So in summary longevity is ~6 hours for me, and i use routine of 3 sprays to skin, 2 to clothes. If i spray only to my skin, it has poor longevity. On skin, sillage is strong in first 5minutes, then it fades to nearly intimate scent that can only be noticed if your nose is very close to spraypoint. On the other hand sprayed on clothes, rum seems to claim more space to itself and fragrance will turn bit more rum-vanilla scent. In clothes longevity is forementioned, ~6hrs. I also have to say that i find this fragrance very close to unisex, i would personally say this is just an amount of a inch towards men, based on how few notes mix and smell in this. However i would bet that most would say this is completely unisex fragrance due to sweetness of it. In overall, this is very fresh, sweet vanillic fragrance with some depth into it. I will see myself using this majorly in spring/summer/fall at daytime. If i were to pick only one season, it'd be summer. I find this fragrance not to be age restricted by any means, i wouldn't blink if i would smell this on man in his sixties, or man in his twenties (like me). Sweetish notes give the impression of youthfulness, but hey, don't we all want to be bit younger than we are currently. Value is great, i got this under 30euros and i know it sells even cheaper in some sites. I have wasted more money, with better known brand, with much worse scents than this. 'Tis a bargain for most of the people. Imagine jack sparrow, serving you platter of lemon, marshmallow and ginger, with side of his special rum bottle with 1% alcohol in it. In his cedarwood-built ship. To me that is exact scent i get from this, however DO NOT BUY this only based on that image since there may be different opinions of what jack sparrow smells like.

Solarissimo line by Azzaro has very pleasant & nice smelling scents. Favignana is a beautiful & youthful spicy & light ambery, slightly sweet daytime fragrance for summer. There are distinctible notes of light amber, ginger, sugar, mild boozy note and mild vanilla. The opening has nice lemon note. Performance is moderate/average. I think it's a bit stronger than Azzaro Solarissimo Levanzo which I like very much. But I have to try it again to confirm this. I highly recommend it for teens and young guys. Quite youthful, casual, versatile and playful daytime fragrance.

Sweet heat! Best worn in cooler temps to tame down the ultra sweet sugar & to allow the dusty spicy slightly rummy base to shine. I only get lemon if sprayed heavy & that’s not really what this one is all about. Close silage, moderate longevity on skin, 24 hrs on clothes. Casual AF. Seems like any age can wear it due to the opening sweetness & spicy dry base. Fun scent, I spray the curtains & my pup 🐶 occasionally with this one too. Scent 8/10 Performance 8/10 Value 8/10 (under $10/oz)

It's a good fragrance but very synthetic. I can't say I can detect any of those notes listed in it though. But nice never the less.

Not anything like the other two in this collection which I really like! I really wasn't into the scent itself and found myself having a hard time wearing this because I have so many other fragrances that I reach for before this. Gave it to a friend after 2 wearings lol

I’m being serious when I say this; All I see when reading that name is “favourite vagina”. As a gay man, imma stay away from this one haha

Had a sample of this that was fantastic but then got a full bottle that smelled a bit like pissed on Christmas ham 🤷🏻
