Cologne Grand Siecle 07

its citruses (green tangerine/clementine, orange) are more about the zest than the juice. vetiver and wheat give it a satisfying depth and a little bitter darkness. true, that it is fading quickly but it's very natural smelling (obviously without any synthetics), and it works almost therapeutically uplifting & comforting (very good for winter mornings). and it is my pavlov-scent: I always use it after workout and sauna, so I already feel relaxed, happy and in perfect condition even if I only spray the perfume on my wrist (without the 90 kilometres on my racebike before:-) it's the best citrus-cologne I know....I always need a bottle of it at home!

A noble and elegant cologne that might have been created by a perfumer for the Louis XIV’s court. A unique item in the Parfumerie Générale range as Cologne Grand Siècle is composed of 100% natural organic ingredients (an aromacological gesture).

If you will enjoy this cologne, I recommend to try in winter season. Each notes will become clear. Summer heat loses or weaks this material. It's nice work.

First impression is a combination of colours; grren and orange with a hint of yellow. A cologne with definately tangerine (not orange) and a little sharp lemon. The green brings to mind tomato plants whilst the fruit is still green (which sets me a little on edge as I'm allergic to the plants). It doesn't change character, it just fades. On me after 20 minutes it's all but gone; after an hour it's hard to detect where it was sprayed.

Very nice cologne: citrus, spicy-woody. Very interesting composition that works, smells unique too. It's also feels organic and Earthy. Would love to smell it on a guy, since it has more masculine vibe to it. Love it!
