Salis

I own a few fragrances from Erbario Toscano and I have tried a lot of their products as well. Most of them are of very good quality but this is for me their most successful creation. Salis is a very unique scent. I wore it in scorching weather and I felt breezy without a hint of that synthetic smell that I find in most “fresh” perfumes. Salis is fantastic because it’s also weird. Behind me a trail of sea salt and algae, the kind of crisp freshness that I get when I chop some fresh parsley. But it’s not parsley, it’s the sea that’s evoked with great sophistication in a bouquet of flowers. I can smell it all day, and I want to smell it all day. It changes so much from the opening to the drydown that I never get bored. Definitely one of my favourites for summer although I like to wear my perfumes all year round. A must try for everyone. A must have for me.

This perfume is aromatic, fresh, one of a kind. I tried it in a tiny Erbario Toscano shop in Firenze. I sprayed it on my left wrist and smelled: immediate regret! Did not care for it at all. Later that day, walking in the gardens of Palazzo Pitti, i got a wiff of a herbal, fresh, gorgeous smell.. the perfume had become this cool, ocean-y and lovely green scent, could not stop smelling my wrist. It's summer in a bottle, and memories of a hot summer vacation in my favorite city. It's unisex, and sooo long lasting! Only thing ut can have a reminecens of mildew on some people.

This perfume is completely different from anything that I own and I love it! I don't like salt in perfume but here it is brine and it evokes the sea shore, likely helped by the "red algae". To my nose the composition is mysterious and nothing stands out as something I can easily identify. I'm walking along the cliff top, overlooking the ocean and there are blooming flowers and a few cedar trees nearby.

Salis is an interesting perfume. The marine notes are the ones that stand out the most, but myrtle is very present too. This was surprising for me, as myrtle is not all that common in perfumes. If you don’t know what it smells like, it is a fresh smell like licorice or anise, but it is different from them too. It is not minty, but a herbal fresh smell, a bit sweet too. Gotta try it to understand it. Performance is good in general. I find it suprisingly more natural smelling than maaany others of the same kind. It is not for everyone, because it is quite unique. More masculinr leaning, but only slightly. Recommended if you like marine perfumes with a twist.

Purchased this as a blind buy and it totally surpassed my expectation. In a good way that is! As the name suggests it's a saline scent: ozonic, watery and transparant but luckily not fragile or weak at all. The brine of the sea really stands out. Combined with the yellow flowers the fragance transports you right to the dunes with the sea in eyesight. Wear this to the beach or if you want to go there but can't. Super original and fresh summer scent that performs adequately. Last but not least: good value for money.
