Pegaso

Truly gorgeous, herbaceous floral with notes of Angelica. Fresh and a little spicy but not so much that it leans fully masculine. Anyone could wear this, it’s beautiful and I don’t have a problem at all with longevity. In fact, this got stronger 30 minutes in! I would recommend this.

Very soft woody-citrus scent with a poor sillage and longevity...unfortunatelly because it is a would be a perfect elegant summer scent for men and woman equally. Pity...

I don't know where I got the idea that this was a fruity floral - perhaps the mental image of a pink winged horse? Needless to say, my expectations were borne out of whimsy and grieviously injured by reality. Despite being quite assertive, Pegasus doesn't have any sharp edges. It is bountiful and bursting with life. Opening with a bright and cheery basil/bergamot the fragrance becomes softer as it progresses, the iris bringing Pegasus back to a more pronounced and feminine keel. Even the pepper is relatively subdued, adding an interesting facet without becoming too dusty/prickly. The drydown comprises cedar and the creamy sweetness of benzoin. This remains very much androgynous though, adapting itself to its wearer. I don't consider Pegasus a very engaging perfume, Etro seems to make quite intellectual perfumes, not so much the thrilling 'shagging in the back alley' kind. With this in mind, I would recommend Pegasus as suitable for men and women working in the office.

Pegaso was a speed love for me! I smelled it and Ambra in a store and fell in love with both right away. I was obsessed with them for the day but my love faded the next morning. Pegaso smells like straigh-forward cardamom to me! I was very surpriced not to find it on the list. That's why I can't separate any notes I smelled there as the combination combination smelled exactly like cardamom when I tried it. Considering the fact that Pegaso smells like the spice in baked goods to me, could it be that I loved it because I was very hungry at the time? After all I don't really even want to go back to it anymore.

I've got a bit cold, so it was such a pleasure to inhale this. It opens a bit medical, but only in the best way, very aromatic, first I was surprised by a burst of basil and pepper, followed by sweet neroli and warm resins. I love how it all plays together. It smells a bit of eucalyptus actually and together with warm resins makes a weird, but enjoyable mix. I'm not particularly fond of woody fragrances, but this smells lovely. I think it would work perfect on a man, but it's definitely unisex, so a woman who enjoys woody fragrances should give this a try.
