Z Zegna Energy

ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS!!! The opening freshness green/citrus, sparkling and tonifying is really fantastic: the best example of a energyzing (and sporty) fragrance; i don't detect nothing of syntetic (but surely there will be!), but only a green/yellow wave of energy (lemon leaf, mandarin orange, angelica and galbanum), not so bright (vetyver and oakmoss in the base notes); i don't detect well lavander, probably with geranium they soften the green/bitter opening, and give a very little powder feel; in the bitterness of galbanum i detect a little metallic nuance, however pleasant, especially in the warm climate. It's the best fragrance to open the next spring, and it’s perfect also in the hottest summer. Also the bottle is really gorgeous. Absolutely to try for the lover of green/citrusy/bitter scents. GREAT FROM ZEGNA!!! Very thanks to Debora for this fantastic gift. Wow, i'm happy to be the first reviewer of this scent!!

A fresh, clean and citrusy start. I actually like this fragrance but the performance is very very (VERY) weak. Barely lasts a few hours and that's what makes it a rather sub-par buy. Didn't expect this from the Zegna, A brand who are known for their exquisite items. Yes, there is a bit of slight skank in there as well. Will never buy again as there are better offerings at this price tag.

@usas You must have a fake. There is Zero vanilla in this. Marios4, your Assessment is spot on. The only thing i would exclude is the "little powdery feet". This is bold, Green, well rounded citrus. I don't detect anything powdery.

Z Zegna Enegy is a citrus, herbal, green fragrance. Its opening is citrus, with a strong green note, I suppose it will be angelica, it is quite fresh and practically without any sweet note. The fragrance does not show much change, but with time the slightly salty note of amber is perceived, as well as a little musk that provides a clean sensation. It is a good fragrance to wear during spring, summer, and maybe fall. Its smell is not wow, but it is pleasant, I suppose it was discontinued due to not having good sales. Its duration reached 8 hrs. without much projection.

Maybe my nose is a little off; however, I get a softer Boss Energise in the dry down. Otherwise, Energy is a safe, budget friendly scent.
