Neroli Mediterraneo

Neroli Mediterraneo might be the scent with the most bitter, sharp, green opening I have ever smelled. Testing this from a 2 ml official sample, but this is how it gets across to me. Very heavy on petit grain, bitter orange, neroli and bergamot. Luckily for me, it is not a linear fragrance. After the initial citrusy, green and bitter blast, it settles in about ten minutes into a beautiful, luminous floral. Still green and fresh smelling, don’t get me wrong, but very delicate and feminine scent. As soon as the middle notes blend with the top notes, the scent transforms into a floral forward with orange blossom, neroli, geranium and a beautiful touch of spiciness from ginger and black pepper. My favourite part of Neroli Mediterraneo! Couldn’t figure from what notes, cause there’s nothing sweet in the notes pyramid, but it gets also sweeter (doesn’t become a proper sweet fragrance) in the same time. Two hours into this, the base notes consisting of iris and the cedar add some depth and a powdery touch to the whole composition. Not a fan of iris, but in here it quite soft, blends well with the entire composition and it doesn’t overpowers the other floral notes. I find Neroli Mediterraneo a very feminine scent, don’t think guys would like this. Also, it’s the perfect fragrance for spring and summer seasons wear. I think it’s the type of fragrance that would work magnificent in high heat and humidity. Just right for that kind of climate! If I could find this on a good deal, I would buy a bottle even though I don’t live in that (ideal to me) climate. It’s not very expensive but it not doesn’t perform well, it’s a soft scent. It’s advertised on the card that is wrapping my sample as eau de parfum, but it performs like an eau de toilette. It smells so natural and addictive and it transports me into into my favourite place on this planet, the Mediterranean coast!

The first spray felt nice, but Ineasn’t somewhat inpressed, BUT! After minute-two it opened up witb a beautiful felicate neroli accompanied with ginger, geranium and something which teminds me orris! I have very light skin and on my skin it is more of anniris scent than neroli, althougb neroli is there, but iris is even more dominant. On my skin it is slightly powdery, slightly creamy musky scent with green undertones. It reminds me a bit Prada Infusion d’Iris, not the overall composition, but these two have similar elegance and sophistication. I love that this scent has such a beautiful delicate and elegant composition. It’s like a very light and transparent veil blurring the edges and lines. It is a perfect office/everyday scent. I think it suits better for people who are using body oils or rich moisturising body creams as on skin which is soft and well moisturised, this scent will be more longlasting. I’m also afraid that on dry skin the potential of the whole composition doesn’t reach its real beauty. I love to spray this sent after the late evening bath before sleep - such a wonderful and calming feeling.

i got this tester bottle for 30 dollars which is a bargain. the bottle looks great, the atomizer is powerful, longevity and projection is intimate, not long lasting at all. this one smell just as high quality as many other neroli scent: tomford neroli, borntostandout neroli,.... But in short, this is a green, fresh and airy combo of mandarine, neroli and petitgrain. Tbh i cant diffentiate this one with mandarino di sicilia except that this one has more neroli ( also weaker than the mandarino eventhough they both weak)

Sounds like another great summer citrus perfume. If it's anything like Mandarino di Sicilia which I have then it's a love ❤️ for me.

This is such an elegant neroli. It's not loud at all. It whispers. But it whispers beautiful things.
