Aquincum

Sit back and relax.. Aquincum is peace in a bottle. The perfume is bright and refreshing upon spraying. I immediately caught a gleaming stream of light, clean, white florals. Soon after you will be greeted by some fuzzy lavender and citrus, with a woody vanilla floating in the air, providing enough body to please your olfactive sense. The perfume dances between ozonic and puffy floral notes. You can clearly imagine beams of light, bending with the bouncy waves in a pool. The atmosphere dampens further, and the sun begins to hide behind trees, you meet a more slight sophistication on the dry-down, light, fresh, sparking booze and a mossy base. The dry down is nothing far off the opening, these darker facets are subtle and I believe are responsible for the great longevity behind this scent. I would wear this easily as a day to day scent. The reach for this would be excellent and fairly frequent. Suited for all weather, besides the colder seasons.

It pierced through the hot dry air during the summertime here. I recommended this to any white floral freak, who wants a new, fresh long lasting perfume. Aquincum does it all, and I am fascinated to find new facets with each session of wears. A secretly complex composition, a piece of art.

Aquincum is a fragrance that takes you places. The second I sprayed it, I felt like I was chilling in a forest. The sun was shining through the leaves and the air smelled all fresh and woodsy. Then, as the scent got stronger, I felt this warm, sunny vibe, like when you're wrapped in a cozy blanket. And the honeysuckle and linden blossom notes are sweet and pretty. But the real star of the show is the lily of the valley. It's the most pure and delicate floral scent ever, and it reminded me of those perfect spring days when everything's in bloom. The base notes of vanilla, tobacco, and amber balance out the sweetness and make the scent last forever. This one is definitely a new fave!

Having spent many afternoons in the bathhouses in Budapest I was drawn to trying Aquincum. The refreshing florals and ozonic accord paint a realistic facsimile of the initial breath you take upon entering the buildings. Adding to this is a slight minerality you get from natural spring waters. The slight sweetness and musky combination adds to the experience of the general tranquility and relaxation an individual would tend to seek when visiting these historic places. This is a fragrance with all year versatility, but it will absolutely shine in the warmer months.

Floral soap In a green garden with a jasmine bush, floral soap is flowing from an old pump. The distinct soapy scent of purity blends with flowers and greenery and fills the nose with freshness and soap bubbles:)Reminiscent of Chanel No.22. And a week later, the scent emits more sweetness - beautiful! Just like the new bottles with a wonderful round cap made of different types of stone.

Lovely spring aromas come up immediately with this scent. The top notes smell like a blend of flower petals laying in a steamy, hot bath. When the heart notes emerge, they give a glimpse of minerals. This fragrance makes me feel like spring is here! Later, the base notes bring forward floral and melon mixed with herbs from a moss-covered hill. This is an elegant and vivacious scent!
