Primo

Girls, girls girls, all you bitchin little girl scouts blasting this scent to death before you even smelled it. Let me answer some questions you young ladies had. 1) YES Lava has a scent. ( ever been to iceland and stood close to a lava flow?) I guess not because you had to sell girl scout cookies , because mommy asked you. And before you ask, yes I have been there and smelled it. But to be fair, this fragrance does not really smell of lava ( thank god) 2) I hope you all HATE this fragrance . I hope none of you buy this. I absolutely freaking love this stuff. It does not smell like anything I have smelled before. For some strange reason I get gucci envy vibes. But it smells nothing like Gucci envy for men. So i do not know why I had to think of this. Please do NOT buy this. So I will be the only one smelling amazing . There is this scent called dior homme sauvage. You can all buy that. Now, be good little girls for your mommy's, and keep on saying: THIS SMELLS LIKE ALL OTHER FRAGRANCES, or, FAKE SCENT NOTES ARE THE DEATH OF PERFUMERY. Please do not smell this, or buy this. To all the people that wrote a positive review: you guys rock.

This perfume is very sweet/syrupy grabbed by boozy smoked pimento (kind of Sauvage Elixir/Boss Scent Elixir 1st 2-hour projection) + aromatix fougère DNA (I can only detected in the air, which masculine DNA you may see in many desinger fragance such as Boss/Sauvage) + combo of smooth patchouli and slightly sweet roasted Italian express coffee/cocoa in drydown. The Noir vibe in this perfume is quite light which is not too dark and not too smoky as Boss Bottle Absolu/Niche fragance like Amouge,etc... I just has a little bit aromatic smoky woody vibe. It open with beast-mode projection in 1st 2 hour, then it suddenly drydown into mild or even weak fragance. I wish the basenote in drydown will amp up after maceration cuz it so sexy and masculine. Longevity is high about 8-9hr, but mild projection after 2 hrs. Overall, it's a very sophisticated perfume when you smell it closely, but in the air what i could detect is only sweet spicy aromatic fragance. This perfume is not suitable for newbie or young person who has little experiment in using perfume.

Now this fragrance is something which I wore to my wedding. It's a scent which provides a tingling to the teeth and an absolutely unique thrumming throughout your veins. I describe it as a metallic tomato soup kind of smell, which is enriched with pimento, grapefruit and creamy tonka. Having said that, the woody element of it cannot be ignored either. It's a very delicately crafted composition where the artistic expression of the fragrance is godly! It feels fantastic to wear at any time of the day, however, do not use this fragrance if you are feeling fatigued as it will overwhelm your senses due to its complex, effusive nature. Absolute Banger. Beast Mode. 100/10. I wanted to gatekeep this, however, I also want to shout its praises from the tops of mountains. Meow

This is absolutely superb. Not groundbreaking but utterly pleasing. Certainly one of the best modern day fragrances out there. The maple sap & pimento are heavenly blended! It just smells divine and its performance is superb. Warm, sweet, delicate but not in your face like all the others. It has a twist, mysterious, alluring, sexy, manly, well mannered, very smooth & stylish with the Italian Trussardi DNA present in its core. Nothing for hoodie and track suits enthusiasts or lovers of harsh fragrances. This calls for a certain elegance and style. Primo is a love story for me.

I personally found Trussardi Primo different, daring, and niche-quality. If it was from a niche house, everyone would talk about it. To me, it starts strong with the Tonka beans, but after the top notes I feel a great balance between warm/lava notes and the cold/ metallic ones, with the the pimento pircing here and there. I do not get amberwood at all. Longevity is impressive and projection very good I have a 10 ml sample, and I think I will buy it... also because the bottle is stunning itself. Very solid release from Trussardi!
