Riviera Verbena

Incredible opening! Raw, bitter citruses, surrounded by green notes. Herbal but fresh, dazzling and sunny. The heart of the perfume is artistictly composed. Jasmine and rose are very gentle and clean. The fragrance becomes more soapy, in luxorious way. Still retains the citruses aroma. Only complain is that musk-vetiver base comes to the fore soon and absorbs the weaker notes. On my skin turns almost masculine-fresh. After few hours it is not airy and light. Patchouli makes it more and more dark and a bit woody. But it is a nice ending, distinged point. Riviera Verbena is one of the best perfume I've ever tried. Pleased with projection (moderate) and longevity (6-7 hours) also.

This is excellent. VERY unisex. It reminds me a lot of Verveine by L'Occitane but on steroids. My wife wears Verveine daily and uses it also as a room spray. Riviera Verbena is much better IMO. Long lasting for an EDT and has moderate projection with a huge initial blast of citrus and vetiver. I definitely get green notes. This is very well blended and I don’t find it overly synthetic at all. Excellent spring/summer fragrance!

Wow freshness to the top. The bubbly citrus with a hint of bitterness is mouth-watering. The herbal notes are incorporated masterfully to make you feel like you are picking fresh greens in your garden. Invigorating and uplifting. Very decent performance too!

One of my favorite perfumes. Will be buying more when I finish my bottle eventually. I love the lemon scent in this and I just can’t get enough of this scent.

I don't agree with top "smells like" section as I own both neroli sauvage and Eua de Rochas. Maybe there in the same profile but aren't similar in scent. Riviera verbena has a beautiful opening and mid, citrus, petitgrain and verbena dominant that's very refreshing with a high quality citrus note (lemon). This is a citric/green fragrance through and through. Overall this has good performance for it's scent class. When the dry down happens (around 2 hour mark) it transitions into a calone heavy musk, which I don't personally mind, but the difference in scent profile between the opening and mid, to the dry down is pretty drastic as they are basically two scents. It goes from citric/green into marine territory. If you aren't a fan of calone you might want to avoid, but I enjoy it was it makes this fragrance non-linear. That being said, I still prefer the opening and mid overall. 7.5 out of 10.
