Peety

I'm leaning towards considering Peety, by far, the best fragrance by Pregoni. This is glorious!!! The usual lemongrass-dark herbal-vanillish combo of O'Driù is joined by a "bearish" smell. Smells like a bear ... the opening is not as brutal as other previous Pregoni's fragrances. There's some Laurhum in it, some Lalfeogrigio and, yes, even some Leva but somwhat, smells different from any other O'Driù I experienced so far. It's like O'Driù remixed. The main hallmarks are there but they're assembled to result completely different from the original... The remarkable animalic presence is not disturbing at all. It's a combination between amber gris and castoreum to my nose even if I initially thought it was civet (hence the opening's bearish smell). It provides great warmness and depth and it's joined by rose, woods galore and a moderately sweet vanilla/tonka/cinnamon combo. There's an overall dryness provided by pepper and woods but the composition never walks the line of harshness. In fact, it's smooth and extremely refined while mantaining an overall assertive character. There's nothing challenging about this fragrance if not the first couple of minutes of animalic-spicy blast. Composition-wise, I find it excellent and, honestly, I've never smelled something like it. There's a funny aspect going on during the evolution: The fragrance opens with a blast to soon settle down to a moderately powerful middle phase. When you're ready to think it's almost gone, it surprises you by starting to tremendously radiate. This final phase (which is the best part of the whole fragrace) goes on and on and on for several hours. The magic of synthetics. --------------------- The *personalized* version, while showing some remarkable differences, at the same time it doesn't feel *radically* different. The fragrance still preserves a thick leathery-musky-balmy structure but the vanillla, after the initial blast, gets tamed down brutally leaving space to a nice appleish-cinnamon combo that while sounding gourmandish, it totally skips the edible aspect of the accord introducing a metallic, sort of nose-tingling vibe the drives the fragrance towards more modern territories. The interesting aspect is that, despite the slightly metallic accord, Peety still feels incredibly warm, subtly animalic and sort of visceral. Again, there's NOTHING challenging about this composition, in fact, is quite easy to like. What, IMO, really changes from the "standard" version is that the base is less woody, less peppery and more about a spicy floral musk combo. The woods get almost killed in the "augmented" version. A funny thing I'd like to point out after several wearings is that Peety works subliminally. You think it's gone but then you get whiffs of its peculiar projection and this goes on and on and on...Projection! This is the point of stregth of this stuff. Don't get me wrong, Peety is not a projection monster (at least not after the first two hours or so) but I find it smelling a lot differently when smelled up close. This is a very well done fragrance but if smelled in projection, this stuff is killer. So unique. That's why I personally believe a paper strip test doesn't give justice to the composition. In the end, I've to say that with or without the P, this is a top quality fragrance. Both the two versions are well worth experiencing if you're into original fragrances. Again, unique without being odd. Rating: 8.5/10

Pre-Personalisation Feeling a fizzy citric opening with herbal accents and a little powderiness joining later (tonka?), all backed up with a purring animalic warmth. 6 hours in now and it's delicious. Somehow classical yet modern, it's a beautiful trick to play and so hard to sit on that knife edge. The drydown has some similarities with Chypre Palatin, with it's not quite chypre radiant alive nature. "Brand new you're retro" , Tricky. It feels as if it would be current in 1892 or 2092, it's a wonderful effect. If Guerlain released this today (obviously sans pee inclusion) it would be hailed as the second coming of Jacques Guerlain, high praise but it's got a timeless quality that's hard to describe. It's beautifully radiant and wafting, not aggressive, but assertive. Still performing great after 6+ hours. In terms of it's controversial nature, I think it's isn't some kind of beast at all. It's approachable, interesting, unique but has anchors in the past, and a warm furry castoreum animalic nature, but nothing to be scared of in the slightest. In fact I would have liked it to be more barbaric, but I'll take that back as it would reduce the great wearability, that's one of Peety's strengths. It's perfect as it is. Still pre-personalisation, but about 1ml leaked out during shipping, so it'll be a 2ml pee pee personalisation this evening, for extra subliminal power. I'll revert with personalised comments tomorrow... <><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><> Post-Personalisation Peety is a very clever creation, post personalisation I can see how it was blended to share some urinous accords to blend and subliminally suggest the pee. It accents not the ammonia aspect but the steam off your piss accord. I’m sorry I couldn’t think of a better way to phrase that. At opening the bitter sour citric accord is extended and intensified, and the powdery vanilic/tonka element is supressed slightly only emerging in the heart. Overall the animalic warmth is still present but takes a more feral edgy direction. Alfarom mentioned a metallic accord appearing in the personalised version, and I’m noticing this too. The heart is smoother and more saturated, the closest approximation I can think of is the effect of adding Iso Super E to a fragrance, things are a little more diffuse and blurred. I notice a new coffee note in the heart, which is interesting as I drank coffee heavily yesterday. The drydown shares the ever so slightly crotchy animalic warmth of the original, perhaps intensified slightly. The whole thing is still smooth as butter and believe me no-one is going to think you sprayed yourself with piss (unless you tell them). Please don’t misunderstand, this perfume (personalised or not) is really not very challenging at all, if you dig AplS, Peety will seem tame. Do not be scared... I loved the unaugmented version (a beautiful perfume), but I prefer the personalised version for what it is. It’s a performance piece, a little bit of art and self-expression, and there is just something very special about that. You either get it or you don’t... To be honest I wasn’t expecting the change to be as marked as it has been, and I can only guess the balance of actual/subliminal effects. Pre testing I think I was a little sceptical (but still intrigued) of the whole personalisation aspect, but I have been won over, Peety is wonderful stuff, a masterpiece even.

ایده ی مطرح شده از سوی آنجلو در مورد اضافه کردن "پی" به عطر "پیتی" برای من مثل یه قیام بزرگ و فوق العاده علیه ترکیبات رز بوی اورینتال ِ حال به هم زن و خسته کنندست. گند بزنید به این ترکیبات ناقص الخِلقه و تصنعیِ متقلبانه ی نخ نما که هدفی جز خالی کردن جیب مخاطبان و فتح مارکت ندارن. این برداشتیه که بنده از درخواست اورازیو پروگانی داشتم و تحسینش میکنم. ایده ها و حرکات خلاف جریان رو فراموش کنید؛ با اونچه که خواسته شده یا بدون اون؛ فارغ از هر نوع نگاه و تفکری باید "پیتی" رو ستود. پیتی یه عطر لطیف اما خشنه؛ یه عاشق درونگرا و یه شاعر معترضه. پیتی عبوری از قتل عام بوته های رز با گلوله های تگرگه؛ تماشای یه سیل مهار نشدنیه که جنگل و خاک و باغ و هر آنچه بر مسیرش قرار داره؛ در هم میشکنه و در خروش کف کرده و آلوده ی خودش غرق میکنه. یه عطر زیباست که از تحقیر ایده های حاکم بر مارکت هیچ هراسی نداره و با ارائه ی فضایی زیبا؛ اعتراض خودش رو به بهترین شکل اعلام میکنه... رز با حالت سبز، گلاب آگین و کمی میوه ای در شروع کار حضوری درخشان داره. اما این حضور درخشان به شکل طعنه آمیزی با دارچین و فلفل و میخک خشک؛ در هاله ای خاکی، چرکین و نمور احاطه شده. این شروع پیچیده مهاری بر رز هست که به زیبایی اون بوی تکراری رو در خودش ادغام کرده و به آرومی بسوی خاکی و دودی شدن حرکت میکنه تا تنباکوی گیاهی-دودی بر این جریان خاکی، انیمالیک و میوه ای حاکم بشه. همراهی کهربای نرم و ملیح با رز میوه ای در حاشیه ی کار تلاشی بر تلطیف فضای طوفانی حاکم بر کاره؛ جایی که فضایی دودی، خاکی، گیاهی و کمی چرکین از همراهی تنباکو، دارچین، زیره و ادویه های مختلف؛؛ خبر از طوفانی مهیب میده. نم زده، آلوده، چرکین و سرکش؛ سِیلی هست که وحشیانه قلب کار رو در می نَورده تا اثری از اون لطافت رز-کهربا باقی نذاره و بوی گِل و لای حاشیه ی رود به همراه عطر تن درختان و شاخه ها و گیاهان رودخانه ای که در این خروش درهم شکسته شدن به مشام برسه. قلبی عمیق، تاریک و خیس از همراهی ادویه ها با وجه گیاهی تنباکو که خاص و نا به هنجار عمل میکنه!!! فضای "خیس"، نمناک و چرکین حاصل از همراهی ادویه ها و تنباکو که پس زمینه ای خاکی(خاک مرطوب) داره؛ به زیبایی پچولی چوبی، گیاهی و حس دارویی ضعیف رو با خودش همراه میکنه. به مرور اتحاد پچولی با خاکهای مرطوب قدرت می گیره و در کنار رایحه ی برجسته ی دارچین؛ فضایی لطیف اما عمیق و تاریک خلق میکنه که حس قدم زدن در یه شب بارونی پاییزی رو داره؛ پرسه هایی آمیخته با تعمق و دلتنگی که من عاشقشم! این فضای زیبا و ناب که شیرینی خفیف و محوی از همراهی کهربا و تنباکو داره؛ بدجور منو شیفته ی خودش کرد: غلیظ، تاریک، عمیق، نمناک، دودی و کمی دارویی. پیتی به زیبایی در این فضا به راه خودش ادامه میده و تنها تغییر عمده، رگه هایی اسپایسی و چوبی-خاکستری هست که به این فضا اضافه میشن. پیتی به زیبایی و با وضوح تحسین بر انگیزی در فضاهای آشنا اما پیچیده سِیر میکنه. بارونیِ خاکستری رنگ، کلاهی که سایبون چشما شده تا کسی از نگاه صاحبش چیزی نخونه؛ تصویر مردی با سیگار برگ گرون قیمتی گوشه ی لباش که داره از یه خیابون بارون زده و خلوت در نیمه شبی راز آلود عبور میکنه. کسی نمیدونه دلتنگه یا خشمگین؛ نا امیده یا معترض؛ دنبال کسی میره یا فقط یه پرسه ی شبانست؟ هرچه هست اسرار آمیز و مرموزه؛ حتی اگه کلاهش رو برداره و بشه نگاهش رو دید؛ نمیشه چیزی فهمید ازش. پیتی؛ مردیه که از عشوه های سرخ و شهوانی، از رزها و گلهای دیگه و از عطرهای جذاب فاصله می گیره و ابایی از تحقیر روزمرگیها و آنچه عُرف هست و مرسوم؛ نداره... دست مریزاد! کامنت: م.ع (سایت لوکس بایر (با امکان تست سمپل

If Aloe Blacc's song "The Man" could be translated to fragrance format, this would be it. You probably thought you'd never run across a non girly floral...well this is it. If you can single out at least 6 of the notes in the opening, then your nose deserves to be in the Museum of Arts and Designs. With that being said, eventually you're able to smell the entire perfume pyramid on your skin. This is a complicated floral and one to be explained in Layman's Terms. To keep it somewhat simple: This floral is bittersweet and uber musky. Although labeled as a floral musk, that can be a little misleading. That's like saying Will Smith is a rapper. Peety has tonka but it's not a gourmand. It has rose but I can't summarily pass this off as a rosey fragrance. The fun notes are present such as jasmine, tobacco, some orangey stuff etc..but like I said, all the notes are noticeable for the most part. Realistically, the note breakdown is a waste of time. All you need to know is if you're a manly man then you need to at least check this one out. Here's another tidbit for further perspective, Peety is in my top 20 of all time favorite fragrances.

Peety by o'driu is nicer and much more weareable that i expected. According with some comparisons where It is compared with perfumes like kouros i expected a very animalic perfume. However this is an animalic scent, that's true, but very sweet and balsámic. I find It very similar to perfumes like under my skin by Francesca bianchi or C21 by bepolar (also Angelo Orazio pregoni). The opening is very intense, with a Big charge of tobacco an cinnamon and the animalic vibe of Jasmine. Then It becomes more balsámic and ambery giving a very pleasant scent to the skin. I havent tried adding my own pee to the perfume because i had only a sample but i would like to see how It behaves when someone does that. The performance of the perfume is good! It has a very good longevity with moderate sillage, even intense during the first hour. I think It is unisex, better for cold weather i can see It also as a night perfume. Scent: 8.5 Longevity: 9 Sillage: 8 Quality/price: 6 Originality: 9 Versatility: 6 Global: 8.5
