Quercia

Big fan of this fragrance. I had been looking for something in the aromatic fougere style but in a very smooth subtle more versatile way. It doesn't show many notes but the super high quality and unique variety of the materials they use give it subtle complexity . At first spray it smells like a very high end shaving foam. But it very quickly starts to bloom into a creamy, velvety earthy aromatic fragrance. Then the patchouli comes on very smooth and it gets really mellowed out by the oak. I normally hate patchouli but it works very well in this. It then settles down to a creamy smooth earthy aromatic. At this stage I'm smelling moss, sage, maybe a speck of rosemary. It's like if I was in the fanciest open air barbershop in the middle of a creamy aromatic forest getting a shave. It's not a loud fragrance that is going to pierce anyone's nose. Performance is pretty good. A solid 2 hours of good projection. A good arms length sillage . It won't become a close skin scent for a good 4 hours. But it will definitely stay on the skin. After a shower I was able to still smell it . It is very versatile. It kind of reminds me of Replica at the Barber but this is better in every way.

The first time I sampled it/smelled it I could straight up smell the lavender and felt like it was more of a feminine fragrance, my sister said it was a very manly fragrance after trying out/wearing the sample i lost the lavender and could only smell a very powdery woody aftershave cool fragrance with a hint of bitterness to it but nice. received a few compliments at work and bought a full bottle 10/10

Very elegant fragrance. Smell like a yacht club, very groomed man. I liked the way oak and lavender are so well done mixed. Definitely remind me of wealth.

I love it. It reminds me of cool shade in summer or oak leaves in fall. Handel’s aria “Verdi Prati” comes to mind.

Powdery woods, very comforting. Like the feeling of an endless crop field (not the smell)
