Allegria

Allegria, lively with happy botanicals and the most fascinating mint perfume I've experienced. Mint and basil paired with passionfruit, mouthwatering and exotic. Tart, bitter and delicately sour with citrus, bracingly fresh with eucalyptus. Cleansing but not sterilizing. Blackcurrant leaf and buchu play like minty dark masculine berries. Fuzzy mimosa, moss and musk... mmm...such heavenly textures that harness the aromatic notes. Cedar grounds them further into a warm woody base. Fruity small white blossoms, tonka with a touch of smoky coumarin, and amber drip like warm nectar. Allegria reminds me very much of CK IN2U for women, although just like that scent, this too renders a unisex vibe. Rouge Bunny Rouge delivers deep, sweet aromatics that brighten the spirit.

Fleetingly flirty fresh flit through a field. Genuinely clever, quirky, herbal-green-citric freshness with basil & mint dancing an exceptionally classy aromatic duet. This sort of spring-transparent-diaphanous deal often doesn't do well on me but it's hedged about with some really interesting, bristly, medicinal-aromatic tangs and whiffs from the eucalyptus and hawthorn and other deep-hippie-knowledge stuff to keep it fascinating. The sweet / fruity edge of passionfruit and mimosa would normally be enough to alienate me but instead just adds a sprinkle of happiness on top of the more nichey notes. Makes you feel like skipping ... but all too briefly, sadly. Lasts only 2-5 hours on me, on skin or fabric, which just makes me sad. And is a serious letdown for something this pricey from a house that can make scents which are almost inextinguishable (its Embers burn happily on my wrist for a whole day.) Still: for a bright sunny floral/fruity/herbal with lots of mint and white musk to do good things for me - that means it's something special, as they're all big hurdles for my nose. If you like Florabotanica/Rosabotanica this is likely to please - not because it smells alike, but because the really offbeat and original take on the dewy-fresh spring skip genre is similar. Not a blind buy but a definite to try, because if it got this close to winning me over it might well seal the deal for you.

The opening is delightful - like a garden full of juicy fruits (I can smell the passionfruit tempered by bergamot) and luscious herbs - mint, basil to name a few. I don't care all that much about the heart of this scent, it has a bit too unisex vibe, masculine even - herbal, with a hint of eucalyptus and soapy amber, it becomes nicer when it hits its base - sweet with hawthorn and tonka bean. The eucalyptus is still there, and possibly oakmoss as well, but at least they have a more feminine company. I love the opening, dislike the heart, and like the base - do I like the scent as a whole? Hmm.. At least it has a nice progression and is not as flat as many scents of today.

It is a spash of a nice mochito coctail with a hint of almond :) Refreshing and unique.

Aromatics in green;)Unique, herbal, green and more than a bit spicy.Like a big party of old friends in a late summer evening.Weather is still warm, after the rain.Big garden behind a village house. Bergamote, a doctor, is an owner.And it was her idea to call everybody from a high school to meet here. Looking at not very tidy lawns we can meet here a cumin, geranium and some other plants.All of them green and juicy with shiny leaves Mint, who always comes first is already chatting to basil and they are also open to eucalyptus memories.Some funny situations just being recollected:)Mimosa in a smart, yellow dress just entered wearing sunny perfumes, nobody would think they are Sunflowers.And what has she brought with her?A fabulous gingerbread with spices,sweetened with almonds.Some chats,friendly buzz, greetings and hugs.The last one is mysterious Mr.Buchu who moved to Africa, making there a politician`s career.Tall, straight and smiling is holding a cedar essence promised last year to his friend Moss. It might be a long and fascinating evening:)So have a nice meeting!

Fascinating scent. Overwhelmingly grapefruit and bergamot (and what smells to me like geranium leaves) on top that almost immediately dry down to a very green, herbal scent, with a bit of earth to it. It reminds me very much of the feel I got from wearing Clinique Happy in high school - it's that same kind of clean effervescence without overt sweetness. I find t very unisex, especially in the middle and base notes. This is one that I like to spray on before bed - it's nice to wake up to the soft, ambery base notes. Spring and summer without smelling like a beach - it's a spring or summer day when there's a chilly breeze. One of the most beautifully complex scents I own - this one is a journey on your skin.

Is anyone willing to sell this pls pm me :(
