Sempre Solo Tu

16. november 2014 Can ́t say much about this fragrance other than it is a sandal bomb! 1 tiny spray reveals the sandal beast out of the red bottle of EDP. The composition is mostly based on 4 notes IMO: sandal, orange, vanilla and wood. This perfect symphony is masterfully accompanied by light hints of raspberry and waterlilly, however they are very submissive here. A good quality perfume with a heavy sillage and great lasting power that is velvety and spicy-creamy, good for autumn nights. Seductive and sensual. I haven ́t tested the original "Solo tu" on skin yet, but the sniff from the lid gives me an impression, that it is also very good one. P.S. My box of "Solo tu sempre" has a very short list of ingredients, so i believe it still hasn ́t succumbed to the IRFA rules and that ́s why i enjoy it so much.

I bought it at a store around the time it first came out. So I can't blame myself for being seduced by the bottle and buying it online without smelling it. I thought I liked it but the more I wore it the less I liked it. Way too much raspberry and the jasmine doesn't help. Not as much rose. I remember thinking maybe it would have done better in a plainer bottle, one that isn't blinding fire engine red. But I'm beyond sweet fruity scents, so I stopped trying to think of ways to make it seem better. I remember trying to sell it on eBay and no one knowing anything about it since it isn't a well known perfume maker so it didn't sell. Or it took awhile to sell. I may have put it out on the curb.
