Benessere

Very agreeable fragrance soft and comforting.

This is cheap pleasant fragrance extremely well balanced, in fact recognising single notes is almost impossibile. It is a signature, in fact smells like no other and is still there after more than 25 years. If only could have higher longevity would be a best seller fragrance. After a morning shower, in spring or summer, it is a must, But also sprayed on bedsheets before going to sleep. It has the magical power of aromatherapy, not for granted in all fragrances. The name in italian means 'Feeling good, wellness' and is really able to make you feel better, relaxed. Overall, I suggest to give it a try. Test before buying. Please note that the bottle is now different: transparent cylinder with light green jus and silver cap.4/5

this green one was the first of the series of Benessere by Collistar. It came out years ago and I used to buy the small 15 purse bottle. It's a very pleasant fragrance which smells like no other. It's both green and spicy with a light sweet floral edge. It doesn't possess great sillage but a good staying power. It is meant to uplift your mood and wellbeing. The matching body cream in the jar is marvelous. It is very good on your head to relief headache. It is a smell of freedom. I used to wear it while reading "The horse whisperer" so I always associate this scent with that book.

Review of "Profumo di Benessere" I don't know - is "Profumo di Benessere" the reformulation of it? (the one with grass on box). I've tested it today and it is so powerful aldehyde. Very 60/70-ties, heavy, condensed. It smells like ballpen ink, actually like jasmin, hyacinth and lilac essential oils condensed to that degree they start to smell like ink.

Anybody knows if this was discontinued? TY
