Relent

Írisz, halk eukaliptusz, háttérben citrus, pézsmával... Nyugodt, harmonikus illat. Nyáron kaptam meg, nagyon harmonikus, minden évszakban használható darabnak érzem. Nincs benne semmi erős gyümölcsösség, sem kátrányos felhang. Egy növényes, pézsmás összhang.

Just a brief review here - i believe this would only please those who can put up with dominant iris notes. I can also smell something tangy, although that will not be the usual citrus smell...

After opening with a marked albeit short-lived citrus demeanor, Etro RELENT becomes essentially a floral woody musk fragrance. Through the middle stage, there is a touch of a tarrish note which seems similar to the one found in the drydown of LOLITA LEMPICKA, but for the most part the musk dominates. Eventually, in the drydown, RELENT manifests a slightly ambery quality, but it is quite subtle, so I wouldn't call this an amber or oriental perfume by any stretch of the imagination. The florals in this composition are rather, as they say, “abstract,” meaning not easy to discern much less identify. Everything is so finely blended together by the end that RELENT becomes virtually a skin scent. I would recommend this composition to people who really love musk, since that's the star of the show. There are some brief appearances of other detectable components, but they are all rather short-lived. The musk, in contrast, abides on and on, becoming lightly tinged with amber in the drydown...

It is a mixture of cheap soap and rotten citrus fruits...
