Idi di Marzo

Topnotes are incorrectly listed, it's - pear - uva fragola (a grape-sort that is a *grape*, but literally translates into "strawberry grape", so there's NO strawberry in it.) - pink pepper - peach Beautiful pear and peach combination hits my nose right at the start, it's super sweet, like overly ripe pears with a slight acidity from the peach, tonally it's warm and mature. It's a great fruity top suitable for people of most ages. I could imagine people of any age group wearing this, but if I had to "put the tail on the donkey", I'd say it's a feminine leaning fragrance aimed at 25-40 year olds. The sweetness turns into a similar fruitiness to sweet wine almost, the grape and peach is pushing more forward and then after like half an hour it begins becoming very floral. I'm getting a lot of ylang-ylang, jasmine, mimosa, a little bit of tuberose and it's absolutely stunning. It's such a potent floral accord with many different distinct kinds of flowers all without that feeling like it's pulling on a nose-hair, it's sweet but not thick, bright but not sharp. This is a homerun. Lastly, the base notes, it's getting incredibly complex with a sweetness coming from the vanilla/benzoin and myyrh and a dominant mixture of mate, tofu balsam and sandalwood it delivers this warm, slightly sticky woody smell. almost balsamic and mossy, like a really hot day with the smell of flowers, wood and resin in the air, full of earthy deep aromas Again, absolutely beautiful.

The hidden gem of the collection 🌼🌺🌸 ❤️

This is giving me strong shades of vintage Amariage by Givenchy mixed with Giorgio by Giorgio Beverly Hills (with a hint of White Shoulders and Tatiana). Stunning scent for an older sophisticated woman who wears tailored clothes and big hats to church making it decidedly not me or my style. I love it for the memories that it brings back of those women for me when I was a child though, and will keep it to cherish the nostalgia.

Quite a kitchen sink of notes, but mainly mimosa, ylang and tuberose and only the soft impression of fruit. "The Ides of March"
