Scusami

Filippo Sorcinelli Scusami Opening: Juicy fruits, clean musk, and a soft ambery sweetness. Heart: White florals slowly intertwine with the fruity accord and clean musk, creating a smooth, elegant transition. Drydown: An overripe plum with a delicate balance of gentle sweetness and subtle tartness, wrapped in soft florals. Nostalgic rather than gourmand. Performance Longevity: Around 6 hours, with 10–12 hours as a skin scent. Projection: Moderate to moderately strong for the first 1–1.5 hours, then gradually settles close to the skin. Some fragrances tell a story. This one feels like remembering a memory that may never have truly existed. It feels like trying to grasp a hazy, nostalgic memory. I'm chasing a blonde girl in a white-and-blue floral dress through a field of flowers. She's smiling, but her face is impossible to see—washed away like an overexposed vintage photograph where sunlight erases every detail. Everything around us is alive with color, yet as she drifts farther and farther beyond my reach, the sky slowly darkens. My vision fades with it... until everything turns completely black, and I suddenly wake up. If a woman wears this, she becomes the girl in that memory—the one everyone quietly longs for but can never truly reach. If a man wears it, he wears it to remember the girl he once fell in love with... the one he could never forget. This isn't a fragrance that reminds me of someone. It reminds me of the feeling of losing someone before I ever had the chance to know them. Song association: Max Richter – On the Nature of Daylight

perfectly sweet candied fruits and flowers, never overwhelming and positively addictive. this is almost certainly sorcinelli's most accessible, mainstream scent but to me it's executed well enough to still be worthy of the price point. it doesn't come across as simple to me, it's certainly not as complex as his usual output but it's still an appropriately high-end scent- you don't get something like this without a good understanding of your domain of expertise. scusami feels like a generational masculine scent except it doesn't suck and you won't smell it absolutely everywhere for five years straight. this is not to say it's masculine-leaning, more that a confident man who doesn't need his cologne to stroke his ego or affirm his sense of masculinity will get a lot of mileage out of this. i personally love sorcinelli's churchy, gothic scents a lot but i will admit that they can be a little too challenging for a professional setting whereas this ticks all the right boxes as far as what i look for in a mature, everyday scent. frankly i would humiliate myself for a scent that's just the opening of this but i'm doing the rest of it a disservice in saying that because it's phenomenal from top to bottom. presentation-wise this is a pure unisex scent to me. maybe not such a unique choice for femme-presenting people given their breadth of options here, but definitely for the masc. my only gripe is that it's somewhat fleeting, on my skin i get 4-6 hours or so.

Scusa : a word that in its simplicity contains a lot. It is the conclusion of a journey of introspection and awareness, an act of courage, which makes us put aside all the feelings of pride that belong to us. And it often frees us, it makes us feel better, because too often we keep within us that hardness that actually does nothing but wear us down. Scusami is a fragrance that opens melancholic, floral, in my mind the image of withered flowers comes to mind which, perhaps after saying this word , flourish again, and give us a green, flowery and fruity landscape. I do not agree with the fact that it is considered out of Sorcinelli's style, because his style is not incensed (there are many of his fragrances without this note), but it is to give us art and emotion, and here is perfectly and again successful.

i’m going to start this off by saying this is a very linear fragrance it is not polarizing not insanely unique but it is still great. It’s soft florals and sharp fruits. It’s a little feminine which is okay. Right as you spray it your hit with berries and other assorted fruits then as it softens up you get some slight woods and a little sweetness from the sugar. Overall i would say this is a feminine fruity floral spring scent. Even with the basic composition that has been done hundreds of times i still think this is top 3 all time for me. So bright so uplifting and just smells incredible so easy to wear and so mass appealing. 9.8/10 performance is decent

My God this is stunning in every aspect. This is the very definition of high end niche perfumery at its finest. I'm not much of a fan of fruity flower based fragrances but this one nearly swept me off my feet. Instant love! The performance, projection and sillage is above average & the overall composition is absolutely stunning! I find this to be so addictive that I simply can't get enough of it. Please, do yourself a huge favor & sample this house. Anyone who dislikes this fragrances needs their noses checked. There's so much going on here I could never do this fragrance justice. Sample it & you can thank me later

wow. I begin by saying that it is a decidedly feminine perfume. I have no doubts about this. it is definitely a great good 90's perfume. it reminds me of lou lou of cacharel or anais anais. There is a nice gourmand touch certainly due to the royal icing. the notes that are most present for me are fruity musks, cassis and all the flowers, mirabelle plum and citrus fruits. the heliotrope concludes the whole wonderfully. a crazy trail and longevity. 10/10 give a gift to your women, they will be delighted with this umpteenth wonder of filippo.

my first filippo sorcinelli fragrance that i've tried. And it's awesome It's a super playful floral and fruity scent which has this clean and musky vibe to it, i believe that's thanks to the ylang-ylang. The fruits are not overpowering, they aren't in a bubblegummy way (like sun-gria) thanks to florals and musks. If you like hibiscus mahajad i believe you'll also really like this one too, or if you just like really palyful scents (this is really likeable on its own anyway.) 8.7/10.

Rarely do I like sweet, bordering on edible smelling fragrances, buut I definitely enjoyed wearing this one! There's a nostalgic childrens' medicine, Panadol syrup, note (to my nose) in the opening that I found very captivating! I'm currently on my first FS discovery set and I'm pretty much falling in love with the brand. Scusami is a 6.8/10 for me! Too pretty, wearable and fem for my taste phahaha, but a very pleasant discovery nonetheless!

Masterpiece! Because to the royal icing, there is a great gourmet touch. Fruity musks, cassis and all the florals, mirabelle cherry and citrus fruits are the scents that stand out for me. This is an excellent example of acidic fruit fragrances. It's sweet, but not syrupy. Most notes, with the exception of fruit and a little cedar, are difficult to distinguish. Precious!

suuuper sweet and fruity. literally cavity inducing in such a pleasant and fun way. versatile, playful, electrifying. amazing longevity, good sillage, stunning bottle. my most recent full bottle, and i regret nothing

It’s tart and juicy sweet fruits with some kind of slight petrichor, patchouli thing going on. Really pretty. Opens very astringent then mellows out into something warm, slightly humid, and mysterious. Love

Sugary sweet fruits, ripe and juicy, dewy florals behind them, strong patchouli note blending all together, gorgeous feels like a sparkling champagne gum drop

Very sweet and fruity opening Slightly alcoholic but quickly turn into fruits (i am getting fruit salad vibes) on a bed of fluffy musk Sweet and juicy plum notes, almong with sugar and florals predominantly rose Ylang gives it almost creamy qualities but overall it's still very fresh and fruity The longer it's drying more edible smelling it becomes I like it but the cassis note is a bit to strong and overpowering for me At the very first spray and whiff i could see the comparison to si, but it is quickly reduced to nothing as this fragrance dries and develops whereas si stays linear and harsh smelling the entire duration

This scent is stunning and normally I’m not into fruity-sweet scents but this has so much depth to it. It lasts all day, until you shower you will be smelling this and only one spray is needed. It’s sweet and very feminine, has a sparkling wine quality and in the dry down I get a seductive amber/rose. I see the comparisons to Si and Miss Dior but this is just way better. I personally dislike Si, something in it is just too abrasive for me. Oh and I get compliments everytime I wear this.

Totally with Q80 on this one. Victoria's Secret... zhuzhed up. I only have a sample of this, and the first time I tried it I agreed with the comparisons to Si, too. I tried it before looking here and was taken aback, given that the other scents from F.S that I've tried are SUPER bizarre. This is one that you could buy for anyone in your life, anyone who prefers feminine scents.

Very similar to Ennui-Noir also by Sorcinelli but less dark and less masculine and less fresh spicy that gives Ennui-Noir a more medicinal herbal soapy scent than this which is more traditional floral and more citrusy. I prefer Ennui-Noir but this is still good. Depends on which floral type of scent you would prefer.

one of the most mass appealing and straightforward perfumes from the unum line, this is a pretty linear fruity sweet scent, with some almost velvety-like powderiness and a sugary-like base. im not disappointed by this, but i do consider this quite boring considering all the other works by sorcinelli 7/10

This is probably the most accessible scent from Filippo Sorcinelli. The comparisons to Armani Si are super apt... this is very similar, but lasts a lot longer and frankly smells a lot better. More depth. Definitely much more tart, though with lots of ambrette. Very lovely. Not really worth buying.

recently tried this, its the most wearable fragrance by sorcinelli, and i dont remember if it was this one of another one that smelled identical (to me), as L'Interdit by Givenchy. Very pleasing, but nothing crazy, for 200+ euros and for the bottle i would've expected more
