Angelo di Fiume

My sample opens with a blast of alcohol which may be because it's aged but all the alcohols go away in a minute and left me with a yummy scent which I can't get enough of it When I first checked it's notes I imagined a very girly,fruity,super sweet caramelized gourmand something in the vein of Viva la juicys but I was wrong.ofcourse it IS gourmand and it is sweet but not a syrupy sweet fruity one.it's caramel note reminds me of Xerjoff Lira's caramel just that here it's paired with cherry licore.all in all I can pickup caramel(not a gooey one),vanilla,a boozy cherry note,an unlisted tonka bean,an unlisted cacao,in a base of woody,slightly smokey,slightly balmy,slightly powdery notes.a gourmand for grownups which is wearable by both men and women.oh and yes,I can get the Pink Sugar vibe in it but this is like a more balanced,more refined,niche version of Pink Sugar More than a Pink Sugar dupe It's like a child of Xerjoff Lira and Cacharel Gloria on me For now I'm adding it to my wantlist but considering it's price further wearings will indicate whether I truly can't live without it or not

مارک بوکستون عطار عجیبیه من از غالب کارهاش متنفرم اما سه تا کارشو خوشم اومد که یکیشون عاشقشم، یعنی آکوا سانتا با اون بوی عجیب جلبکی گیاهی اش و دیول این دیسکو از برند دیگه اش که بنام خود مارک بوکستون باز خوشم میاد چون طبیعی ست و البته فقط تک پاییز و به تنم نشست، اما این کار بعید کسی بخواد بخره بپوشه و من نزدیک پنچ شش سال که هنوز کمتر ده میل ازش مصرف کردم.پنچ تا کار سر جنون از نوبهار تک حراج گرفتم که دوتا خنک هاش واقعا مفت گرون و حتی یکبار بیرون نپوشیدم و گذاشتم رد کنم.اما این یکبار زمستون رفتم تو یه پاساژ کامپیوتری و داخل مغازه ای بودم چونه میزدم که یکی از رفقای صاحب مغازه اومد داخل گفت بوی قند سوخته میاد!! طرف گفت آره اما بوش قشنگ و فکر کنم عطر باشه، منم گفتم مال من قندسوخته نیست اما خوب واقعا فرقی هم باهاش نداره. من بیشتر بخاطر یه کاری از سرج لوتنس که دیگه ندارمش اینو گرفتم و دوستش دارم اما غیرقابل پوشیدن و پول حرام کردن بود.بدون تست نخرید و تست هم کردید جوگیر نشید چون محال بشه پوشیدش. البته فارسی نوشتم چون تو فرهنگ های دیگه ممکنه کارامل و قندسوخته باهم براشون عشق باشه کمااینکه من عاشق رز هستم از هر نوعش اما ایران ما رز دوست ندارند‌. پرفورمنس میشه گفت هشت از ده و خوب واقعا

I can see that this one gets mixed reviews, which is understandable, because the scent itself is actually nice, and can be categorized as fruity gourmand, however, i think Angelo di Fiume may garner more positive comments should it have better performance. For me the main scent is smoky caramel and cherry, with vanilla always sing at the back. As for silage, it is moderate at its best. Longevity? It radiates only for 4-5 hours, and then it is hiding into skin scent... And like the others I thought that the skin scent would disappear in a few hours, but when I checked the shirt that i used today (i wore the perfume at 7 am, changing clothes at 5 pm), i can still sniff the perfume on my clothes. So yeah it stays very long with very weak silage after 4-5 hours of application. The flacon is gorgeous though....

I wanted to dislike it as two people whose reviews I follow have disliked it also, but I couldn't. Yes it is very sweet, almost cloying, but nothing beats the fantastic smoky vanilla drydown. It is almost angelic in it's sweetness, it wraps around the wearer like a fog, blinding completely. I don't really know if I will ever find an occasion I will wear this, but I crave a bottle of this. Why? Well, I don't know. I just do, I find it simply non resistible. As for the "generic" part, well I disagree. There is nothing too generic in ANGELO DI FIUME. It most certainly has niche quality, the notes are perfectly blended and the whole composition is flawless. Is it worth the 145 EUR? Doubt it. But what can one do upon falling in love? :)

Very similar to Moresque’s Diadema but without the leather note. It is less sweet than Lira. I detect fruits like cherry and raspberry, then some caramel, finally a few slight floral hints and a soothing, ultra refined vanilla. I find it quite pleasant for any time of day and for all year round. It is a very fruity sparkly gourmand. Subtle but very present throughout the day. Whoever insinuated this resembles Aquolina’s Pink Sugar is out of their mind. Too far from that screeching scent! Feminine leaning and my cup of tea! 10/10
