Pomelos

This weirdly reminds me of Coco Noir, although they barely have any notes in common other than grapefruit and jasmine. It’s not as bright and uplifting as I thought it would be. It has the citrusy punch, but it’s subdued, and there’s something about it that reminds me of leather seats or the scent of a new car. I actually am loving it so far. No headaches yet. It’s citrusy, leathery (although no leather in the notes), slightly powdery and soapy, overall.

Fresh floral green with hints of fruits. I have the 75ml version, like the ones in Note >...> collection, which is indeed very pretty to look at... the green rinestones evoke a feeling of spring. Pomelos is a kind of sweet grapefruit but I honestly smell very little citrus here... it's mostly delicate and young flowers, with buds and greenery, wet young wood full of sap. I could say this smells like the baby from a marriage between Kenzo Le Monde Est Beau and Chanel Cristalle edp. Elegant, delicate and serene, it could be unisex too. Silage is rather soft and lasting power average. Pleasant and innofensive, probably appropriate for mornings and days more than evening. Lovely and recommended to those that like fresh perfumes, smooth, no screeching notes, no sharp angles.

Very soft and lovely.. Nothing near sharp and stingy as grapefruit sometimes can be. Yes it is fresh and clean, but as I said, soft as well. Stays rather close to the skin, and though it's a lovely scent, I don't know if it would be worth it to have such a fragrance for it's original pricetag... But that's up to the buyer of course.

The best Peach Blossom and Rhubarb blend. Very good perfume, elegant smell, not sweet but floral, excellent for summer days and weddings. It makes me think of a wedding when I wear it. Stays close to the body, but doesnt last more than 2-3 hours. So its a poor projection for such an expensive perfume.

Powdery grapefruit and floral scent. I have smelled a much better and more natural rhubarb note in perfume, this one is just okay. And to me overall Pomelos comes across as a “perfume” smell, meaning it’s a little generic. Not bad, but not a great scent. I personally can’t imagine ever reaching for it. Pomelos is currently on sale on the Micallef website if this is something that works for you.
