Passeggiata In Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II

This perfume is very special. special in that it is very very unique, and in that it smells ultra high quality, complex, and very well blended. you must be a gourmand lover to really appreciate this i think. At first i must confess that i was like WHAT IS THIS... LOVED the opening upon first spray, but then I was almost barfing on the dry down. Probably because my nose wasnt used to anything like this, and ESPECIALLY the TEXTURE of this. This is one of the most lactonic scents, ultra thick, creamy milk. This trully smells like the milk froth of a hazelnut latte. Photorealistic latte. This is a very milk heavy latte, maybe like a flat white. Many coffee scents have more of a darker, chocolatey spicey vibe to them. This is different. I think of the color white, this is bright, luminous, creamy and frothy... I really agree with the accord synesthesia, except for the woody or spicy nuance to it. the whole composition is super well blended, where you can't really get the cinammon unless you really look for it at the top. same with all the other notes. you really have to look for them to get them, but the creaminess and luminosity of the tuberose, the creaminess of the coconut, the hazelnut... all add this epic texture to it. that drydown that i didnt like at first, came across as an ultra thick and dense cloying condensed milk. Im suprised lactonic is not even mentioned in the accords. Today is a white winter day above freezing, its overcast but with lots of light. I am wearing baby blue joggers and a white long sleeve T, and this scent couldnt be more perfect as I drink my coffee. This made me imagine like Im drinking a super frothy hazelnut latte. This is so bright, creamy, comforting and just yummy as heck. My nose finally understood that super different drydown, and I'm absolutely loving this. I doused myself with this, even though this is BEAST. MODE! ultra longevity, and bomb projection with the big texture and thickness. Very very good quality scent from Trussardi! now, if you look for something formal, this is not it. This is ultra casual, happy go lucky yummy comforting scent. it's different. and sweet AF! it's a keeper. : )

Trussardi has not disappointed me with any of my blind buys-- they're all high quality. This one especially. It's my newest favorite fragrance. Starts off smelling like a very fancy chocolate tootsie roll scent and then on the drydown goes between smelling like coffee and hazelnut creamer with no sugar to a baked sweets smell as if I had some instant vanilla cake mix baking in the oven. Or the edges of the aforementioned cake when you flip it over and take it out of the baking pan. Or almond biscotti. I love that it's not sickly sweet (even though I love sugar sweet scents) because this can also be used by men. Sometimes that baked goods vanilla drydown gets artificial smelling but I question if it's because of the clothing I am spraying it on. I sprayed it again on a cotton shirt today and I didn't get that scent. Also has a faint incense scent but it's not enough for me to consider this incense scented. I am guessing that's the cedar? Sillage is very good! If someone is downwind from me they say they can smell it. I didn't get compliments but I also didn't get complaints so that's good for me because I just love smelling this on me and I'm glad I am not offending anyone. I asked a friend who criticizes my choice in fragrance sometimes to tell me his opinion on it and he said it smelled decent-- he picked up notes of chocolate when he smelled it. It doesn't last long on skin. I sprayed it on myself and went out to work on my hot and humid outdoor job and within 2 hours I had sweat off the scent. On my clothes, however; it lasted most of my shift; so, about 6 hours out of the 8 hours. I love that I now have a unisex baked-goods gourmand fragrance that isn't cloyingly sweet so I can have my boyfriend try it out. He could wear this Trussardi Passeggiata In Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II , and I could wear Dior Hypnotic Poison so we can suffocate poor bystanders in our immediate radius with a vanilla gourmand fragrance cloud. I hope Trussardi's Passeggiata In Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II isn't some kind of limited edition or discontinued fragrance because I really love this juice!

This is a really lovely fall/winter gourmand that would be perfect for those who don’t like anything super sweet or who want just a touch of femininity in their fragrance but not too much. The coffee and cinnamon notes in the opening could have been too bitter/spicy if not done right, but they aren’t bitter at all - they’re a little dry, powdery, and lightly sweet, like opening a packet of some kind of cinnamon latte coffee drink mix. I almost smell a pinch of cacao in there. The hazelnut note is not like Nutella but like roasted hazelnuts, toasty and nutty and only a little sweet. In the middle the nutty coffee cacao scent lingers and then I smell white florals, which add a touch of delicate femininity. I do not smell the coconut as a distinct note (but for some reason I do struggle to detect coconut notes in fragrances) but it adds sweetness and dimension. I don’t smell much of the cedar in the drydown but do smell dry vanilla and musk, with lingering traces of the nutty coffee cacao scent hanging around. I personally don’t understand those who say this is super sweet or too sweet. I love sweet gourmands - make it almost cloying and I will probably like it. This isn’t that for me. It’s a little sweet to my nose but nowhere near too much. If it weren’t for the white florals I’d say this would be a unisex fragrance. Lasted 8 hours on me with moderate projection. I have a sample and think I want a bottle of this!

Gorgeous cozy Nutella scent. If you love Nutella, another wonderful export from Italy apart from brands like Trussardi, the chances are you feel its very edible gourmand and enjoy it. However, it holds the line between food and perfume quite well, it doesn't come across completely like something that belongs to your kitchen cupboard. It doesn't also smell adolescent or cheap. Florals and coffee doesn't play big part, but do balance scent, cinnamon makes it slightly spicy and very delicious in crisp cold and snowy pre-Christmas winter time (when I first tried it- i got Nutella association immediately as a big fan), whilst in summer, the coconut adds intense creaminess and it acts even a bit animalic due to musk base. For me its one of the best in this genre, a must-try for nutty gourmand lovers, works well with the perfume enhancer/musk thats in black flacon- it makes this fragrance deeper, muskier, brings out florals, and Passeggiata gets a touch more perfumey and more complex in a good way. I really like this Trussardi line, found 3 solid loves out of 6. Flacons are also absolutely beautiful.

I love this perfume! It has easily become one of my favourite perfumes A very delicious, creamy, cozy, sweet and comforting scent. It smells like a very expensive and refined hazelnut spread and takes my imagination to a cozy cafe in Italy serving you a hazelnut cream cake with a cup of hot chocolate on the side. Although there is no chocolate listed in the notes, this scent comes off very chocolatey but still in a high quality well blended way, not too extreme or off putting. I also do not detect any coffee, but the cinnamon makes a very small appearance making it warm and cozy. The hazelnut is a prominent note making it very nutty and delicious. The tuberose and jasmine are also not prominent notes in this perfume but they are there very slightly in the background to make it more blended and add to the sophistication and roundness of the scent. If you love gourmands like me, this is definitely for you. Great sillage and longevity as well lasts a good 8+ hours on my skin. Gorgeous bottle too!
