Līgo Svētku (Ligo Holiday)

Līgo Svētku is a wonderful woody, aromatic and fresh spicy fragrance for men. Very manly and very refreshable, I love it! It opens with citruses, vivid bergamot and orange, followed by a smell of fresh cut grass and cool mint. Afther some time comes to the surface a vivid lavender note with a bouquet of spicy flowers in a woody base. The fern appears after the lavender calms down, a very pleasant feeling, green and fresh with a pinch of orris root. In a few minutes traces of resins, very weak, apper along with mild oakmoss which strengthens gradually but never overpowers the lavender and the fern. The dominant notes are lavender, fern, green notes and oakmoss. The longevity and the projection are moderate with 5-6 sprays. I highly recommend it for summer and spring, day time or night, but not for a heat wave. They sell it in Russia 500 rubles, about 8 US dollars the 100 ml.

Okay............. This is the second fragrance made by a Post-Soviet house that I own. And it's as much "okay but far from something I'd really wear" as the first one, Dilis Atlantica Odyssey. I think comrade GRAF is being a little bit over-patriotic about all those post-Soviet colognes 'cause none of them is really worth any attention. At least, none of those I tried so far. But we'll see what the house of Sergio Nero can offer; and it will be the last post-Soviet house I'll ever try if it won't get close to something I'd really want to wear.
