Moscado

This is a true gem for clean/soapy notes addicts. I would never tell by the name , colour of the packaging or the notes that this would be immediately placed at the top of my ranking for clean citrusy not so quiet luxury fragrance. Amazing! My summer hit! Bought a full bottle after testing in F&M. It is a rounded, sophisticated and a very italian expensive hotel smell, just out of the shower in fluffy voluptuous cotton towels feel. It vaguely resembles well known Melograno by Santa Maria Novella, but way better: less dust - gentle powdery citrus with a distinct summer breeze - very airy and classy. I full heartedly recommend it! As a “clean/soapy notes” junky IMHO I know many perfumes in this range : Penhaligon’s Cousin Flora, Scent Journey Lido Life, Marseille Soap, SMN Fieno/Melograno, Profumum Roma Acqua Vita - and I mean not a washing powder note clean, but summer breezy shower/ citrus clean, without any hint of cleaning products citrus. I would imagine Lora Piana should have smelled this way - if clean citrus could ever be compared to luxury , then that is it. Price is high but the quality is impeccable - the wafts of heavenly clean fluffiness is with me for 4-5 hours, nothing that suffocates or irritates me in it even in heat 30+C. Thumbs up for this creation by Gael Montero. The most surprising thing here is the name, notes and story behind it: I would expect something much heavier and oriental. Instead, thank goodness, I get the scent of my summer dreams.

In a nutshell, this perfume smells like an ultra luxurious soap. It opens clean, airy and softly opulent. It has that refined, freshly showered elegance you would expect from a high-end boutique hotel; velvety white florals, creamy musks and a smooth radiant freshness that feels both comforting and sophisticated. It is the kind of smell that feels effortlessly expensive, polished and quietly indulgent. I am so happy to have discovered this beautiful gem of a perfume as I am a sucker for clean scents. Furthermore, the bottle is a piece of art as are all the bottles of this brand.

Very seriously on my 2nd bottle since summer - total drunk in love with this one! Patting myself on the shoulder for finding the unique scent with best (for me at least) combination of timeless class and agrumi in a cloud of light soapiness, with amazing sillage that seems no one to have or know. It is also my 2nd review of this bellezza. Just occurred to me as a description of a scent : if one of you - Chanel 22/18 lovers - would be mandatorily sent to finally shower with a Sicilian lemon soap - that is what you would leave in a trail after exiting a luxury hotel bathroom.

I’ve been diving deep into clean, musky fragrances and this is probably the cleanest scent I’ve come across. It smells like fresh hotel bedsheets and Dove soap — ultra-smooth, musky, and comforting. Less creamy than Musk Therapy but with slightly better projection. Very easy to wear and feels quietly expensive. If you like Gentle Fluidity Silver but don’t enjoy the gin note, this sits right in that lane. Simple, refined, and effortlessly clean.

An elegant, feminine, and well-balanced fragrance. It opens with subtle accords of spices and citrus, reminiscent of delicate tea-like nuances. The sillage remains noticeable for quite some time, before the composition softens into a more powdery and creamy character. Enveloping and refined—a beautifully classic perfume.
