Aqua Amantia

What can I say absolutely stanning performance this fragrance smell expensive so beautiful smells. This smells what I am looking for this summer not too sweet not to Spicy not too overdose. Very unique wow wow wow 10 /10/10 fantastic

Very nice take on a fresh, citrus/ grapefruit / fruity summer scent. Smells like a lemon sherbet garnished with a cascade of redcurrant (that has an acidic fruity taste and smell) plus grenadine syrup. But it's not sugary at all... remains acidic tart and somehow crisp. Screams summer, beach parties and a lot of colourful cocktails. I don't get the rhubarb others may find (to me rhubarb is bitter and no bitterness here), but I smell the hibiscus, like the one I can find in hibiscus tea (that I really like; in Italy we call this tea " karkadè" a name from the Ethiopian "karkadeb" where such tea is typical ). This is a very easy, young fresh summer spray, to be reapplied often cause it has 1h lasting power, alas. PS: very similar to A Girl in Capri for the zestiness and fruity note. AGIC is way more longlasting, though.

At first spray i get overwhelmed by the strong cedar smell(even tho it's supposed to be a base note?). It takes me to an early summer morning in a cabin in the pine woods. Kind of reminds me of my grandpa, so a unisex scent, almost men's cologne vibes. If this hadn't evolved, I would've pressed "dislike" on this one for use for myself. I'm not sure what hibiscus is supposed to smell like, but I had an evening tea with it in it and I wasn't a fan of the taste... Sour and flowery, a little bitter maybe. Grapefruit is noticeable in the drydown, that has a slighty more feminine hint, maybe because of the flowery notes. I would call this a fresh/refreshingly, green, citrusy and possibly soapy scent suited for warm days in spring and early summer :) something for the calm, nature lover!

A floral suitable for the warmer months. Grapefruit keeps the scent a bit crispy, almost soapy, and the hibiscus is very pleasing and fresh. As it's a simple scent, I think it could blend well with some linear vanillic fragrance if one wishes to twist it a bit. It's a light and carefree fragrance for sunny days! EDIT (11/2023): As I am decluttering my perfume shelf, this is going. I don't reach for this and now that I smelled it as part of critically assessing my perfume portfolio, this has a chemical smell to it that I dislike. It might also just be the grapefruit, I don't know, but it is too Fairy-like. I bought this in 2022 to satisfy my hibiscus graving on a budget, but honestly just invest in Hibiscus Mahajad if you want a realistic and natural smelling hibiscus.

Super tart. Like mouth puckering tart. The warheads candy of the fragrance world. Fresh and interesting, will definitely wake you up in the morning, but kind of one note and not something I want to smell that often. I like it in a weird way but more as an oddity, I think. Grapefruit, rhubarb, and some sort of hibiscus concoction that is almost sour- this could have gone no other way. I’m assuming the brief for this was “tangy” and that was accomplished.
