Adam & Eve's Dress

Adam & Eve's Dress In the beginning was the Word... and the Word here was the fragrance. Thus did the Italian Lorenzo Pazzaglia intend it to be... and so it was, a poetic and symbolic presentation that inspires and connects. This perfume is born as a new page in the eternal tale; the story of the first creation, where Adam and Eve stand beneath the shadow of the tree, searching for the meaning of innocence and desire at once. It opens with a touch of fig, the fruit forever tied to the legend from the very beginning, symbolizing the knowledge and temptation that led to the fall. Blended with bergamot and white peach, as if they were the promised fruits of paradise. Here, the echo of the first leaf that covered the body resounds, but the fragrance unveils rather than conceals, revealing a beauty never written in words. At its heart, fig leaves intertwine with jasmine and soft vanilla, like the threads of the dress Eve once stitched from the shadows of Eden and the light of dusk. A delicate hint of spice, reminiscent of cinnamon or nutmeg, lingers, recalling that first curiosity, the desire that drove humankind toward knowledge. The base is the root of the earth itself: fig wood, its white sap, soft musk, and noble sandalwood. A warmth akin to that first embrace after the fall, when the body was no longer just a body, but memory, sin, and eternal allure, wraps around you like a comforting blanket. Performance: Moderate leaning toward good, like an echo that never fades. Sillage: Moderate, accompanying you like a secret moment between lovers. Longevity: Lasts between 6 and 8 hours, an enduring presence like the shadow of a tree that never dies. Value: Fair for those who seek a fragrance that carries within it a poem, not merely a bottle.

A&E’s Dress is an outstanding green and fig scent. Upon first application you are hit with green notes that smell like heavily wooded areas that have dense bushes on the forest floor that produce various berries, such as raspberries and blackberries. There are some slight florals lingering in the background that prevent the green tree notes from being too rough. As the fragrance dries down the fig fruit and sap make itself pleasantly known. Towards the end of A&E a slightly minty note appears, which was a pleasant surprise (I greatly enjoy mint in fragrances). It should be noted that you will need to truly enjoy green based fragrances to appreciate A&E. The projection is certainly above average as it can be detected for a handful of hours. So be careful on how much you spray—especially if you work in an office environment. The longevity is very good as well. I get about ten hours of performance. A&E is similar to Debaser, Wanderlust, and 195 AC. Debaser has a sharper opening without the floral highlights and limited performance—on my skin. Wanderlust is a bit more fruity and playful along with lesser performance compared to A&E. 195 AC is very similar with less dense green notes that are enhanced by soft incense. 195 AC has very good longevity with moderate projection. For the money and performance I recommend A&E for people looking for a green focused fig fragrance that will last through the day.

“Complete portrait of the fig, in every aspect: from the branch, to the leaves, to the zest, to the pulp” The perfume describes itself perfectly. Imagine freshly dewed, vivid green leaves; you crush them wildly in your hands, the sap clings to your skin, and in a moment of reckless impulse, you touch your face. That’s exactly what this smells like. Think of picking figs straight from the tree; that sticky milky sap left on your fingers, that’s the core of it. As far as I know, there’s no true fig-tree extract, only impressions built through accords; and here, that illusion has been mastered beautifully. It doesn’t smell like a ripe fig at all; this is unripe, milky, leafy green; vivid and pure. Never fruity, never sweet. As it dries down, sandalwood gently rises, shifting the scent from lush green to a soft, woody finish. Utterly beautiful! I’m in love, beyond words. 🍃 Tag(s): lush, leafy, super green, vivid, dewy fig

I have to say that it is one of my favorites that I have tried from the brand and that it works best with my skin. We mainly find a very realistic Hugo aroma, from the fruit to the tree, green, slightly acidic and with just the right amount of sweetness. It is an intense aroma that can be felt but without becoming cloying or bothering anyone. Its projection remains strong for approximately an hour and then decreases and becomes more moderate. On my skin it lasts about 7 hours, making it one of the longest-lasting products I have tried so far from Lorenzo. High quality, as in all the others, although perhaps this is one of the least original and unique aromas, since there are many other fig options on the market that are similar. I don't rule it out as a possible future purchase.

After unleashing my negative mood to describe how disappointing a bunch of Pazzaglia fragrances were, this is an exception. This is my gem, this is nothing I smelled before in terms of fig fragrance. I love that it is perfectly balanced, it doesn't fall into the basic sweet coconut fig combo, nor into the green harsh vegetal type. Often fig scent also tend to smell like a "boojee room spray", strong and sharp with no chemistry with the skin... Not here! This one is green, round, and creamy at the same time, a fig tree infused by the sun, never cloying, completely unisex. This is a comfy, extremely enjoyable fragrance that last the entire day.

This has very slowly but surely become my summer favorite. It is as green as it gets, as cold and crisp as it gets and as fresh and refreshing as it gets. It`s amazing stuff for unbearably hot summer days over 30 degrees in Celsius. Mind you, this all is coming from a girl who close to hate cold, green and fresh perfumes but even I have to admit - in summer this is a must have. Word of advice - do NOT sniff it close up right from your skin, it will feel almost bitter. Rather allow summer wind to whiff around you and bring perfectly crisp and fresh whiff of scent to you that will bathe and soothe your soul.

Super green perfume! Here Lorenzo has inserted an entire fig tree, leaves, woods, fruits, everything! The extremely green fragrance, with well-known notes of fig, is woody, slightly scratchy due to its green woodiness, I am not a lover of green and fig scents but fortunately they didn't bother me in this. Everything is well blended with the various chords present, a must have for lovers of the genre.

Adam & Eve’s Dress opens very green and almost minty, strongly reminiscent of Ichnusa by profumum roma, with a slightly masculine, woody edge. As it develops, the scent becomes juicier, less masculine and more rounded. The base is soft, lactonic, and woody with an almost edible quality. I also detect a hint of lemongrass, even though it’s not listed, which makes it even more intriguing.

What I get: bergamot and green fig with an indistinct woody backbone. A green and citrus fragrance. Good lasting powder and silage, not a beast as other Pazzaglia's creations. Revitalizing and great for super high temperatures. Nothing more, nothing less and I love it for what it is. I totally adore this kind of green woody profiles so it's quite easy for me to fall for it.

Sweet fig and watery green notes with a designer take I enjoy this a lot so fresh and juicy with woods I could see this getting a lot of hype the one downside is it not unique enough if you just starting with the brand or in fragrances in general this is for you safe fresh woody green sweet and additive worth a try for sure

Complex, green parsley vibe. Reminds me of a savory pineapple cocktail; smells gourmand. The fig is present all the way through; there is like mint or lemon balm in there. Like a magic door opening for your nostrils. If you like sex-sea but want something different, this is all the way different, but just as good.

i'm surprised by how much i actually like this scent, lorenzo was never a house that took my interest to go out and sample but when the opportunity to try this one out fell into my hands i was positively surprised. smells very fresh, green, figgy and overall joy-enducing and has this zen calmness about it

this is the greenest perfume i've ever smelled, and that's all i can say about it, because it really is just *green*. its projection and longevity are monstrous, so be careful when spraying it. i wish it were more affordable because i only have 5ml of it and i'm saving it as my special treat

Blind bought this & safe too say It wasnt a mistake, this is a very green fragrance so if you are looking for something super fruity this is not it, there is definitely some fruits but nothing heavy there is a note that gives it this cooling aspect that I really enjoy as well.

Very clean minty and green , excelent for summer. REFRESHING. Personally i think that Lorenzo Pazzaglia is overrated but this fragrance is very GOOD.

Fig and herbs Opens with a blast of fresh green notes Dries lore aromatic herbal Lactonic milky fig juice that is a bit spicy

Very green fig. I love it. Good projection and longevity.

This definitely goes in its own direction. The initial blast is heavy citrus; to me, it’s lemon but that is not listed as a note. The citrus is immediately met with a grassy green note. The grassy citrus stays for a while and just screams gardens in the spring time. I am guessing the “grassy green” is the different varieties of fig notes listed, but I never truly identified “fig” in the scent. The mentioned tuberose and jasmine are never prominent, but I suppose they are working in the background to keep this fragrance from smelling like cut grass. After a while, the sandalwood enters and provides a welcomed creaminess and soapiness to the profile. As it dries, the soapiness becomes more prominent. A&E’s Dress reminds me of Creed’s Green Irish Tweed but with more projection and movement. Overall, this offers something a little unique, long lasting and unisex. Overall Rating 8.1/10.

Generally, I don’t think Lorenzo Pazzaglia’s style is very congruent with my tastes, but this one really fit a niche in my collection...I was looking for a green/vegetal-like perfume to wear outside when doing yard work / DIY...this one fits the bill...unlike the previous reviewer, I actually really like that the fig fruit is less prominent, as I have other fig fragrances that are more fruity...this one is all fig leaf and fig branch...literally smells like you ripped some fresh branches (young shoots) off a deciduous tree...perfect for getting dirty & sweaty, yet maintaining some sense of freshness...performance is strong; I usually use 1-2 sprays...got a 30 ml for a decent price at discounters...curious to try Profumum Roma Ichnusa, as I think it more aligns with my tastes, but this was a good budget option replacement

Just smelled this side by side with Ichnusa and they are so similar ! On skin, during the opening, I get more fruitiness and sweetness from Lorenzo Pazzaglia’s, which I prefer, but they are strikingly similar. After 5 minutes, as the scent settles down, I get definitely more depth with the Profumum Roma’s one. As per usual, it looks the PR is in 4D, amazing stuff. Am I biased by the pricing difference? Not sure, but if I had to choose I'll probably go for Ichnusa. In any case, I love Lorenzo personality and this scent is good.
