Riflesso

Restricting the rich hue of gold-amber cognac, Trussardi Riflesso comes encased in a beautifully ribbed glass bottle. It's a slept-on fragrance that can be described as an undiscovered gem, deserving of much more attention than it currently receives. With its captivating scent and incredible value for money, Riflesso has the potential to become an exceptional everyday signature fragrance. This perfume opens with a well-balanced fruity accord featuring invigorating notes of grapefruit and green apple. As it develops, the fragrance blossoms with floral hints of geranium and lavender, culminating in its noteworthy tonka bean and leather dry-down. While some may draw comparisons to certain YSL fragrances like La Nuit de L'Homme and L'Homme, Riflesso possesses a unique and distinguished character. Riflesso strikes a balance between modern elegance and seductive charm, making it universally appealing. Its versatility allows it to seamlessly transition from professional to casual settings. While its performance is moderate, a few extra sprays after a few hours won't hurt, considering the affordability of this fragrance. Opting for the larger bottle is a sensible choice, and carrying a decant for on-the-go use is a practical idea. Given its affordability and exceptional quality, stocking up on this fragrance in its smallest size wouldn't be a bad move either.

So, I'm here again! Firstly, I really love the scent. A combination between La Nuit de L'Homme and YSL L'Homme. It's just gorgeous. It has apple and tonka bean, with added leather (a note that both YSL fragrances don't have). However, I'm very disappointed by the performance. It doesn't last long nor projects well. It is gone by 6 to 8 hours on clothes (while many fragrances I've tried before doesn't seem to fade away until at least 12 to 16 hours). The projection is moderate for the first hour. I think it'll not be redundant if you guys get this when you have both of those YSL fragrances. But if you want to get it, just try this one first (as a sample) before buying a full bottle. See if it works well on your skin/clothes. It is great, but I really have to learn to love it. Maybe I'll bring more updates when I use it more often. ---------------- RATING Scent Opening - 9/10 Scent Drydown - 8.6/10 Longevity - 7.5/10 Projection - 7.5/10 Versatility - 9/10 Uniqueness - 8.2/10 (it is very similar to those YSL fragrances but I'd still consider it as a unique fragrance that sets itself apart from other cheapies) Value - 8.5/10 Presentation - 7.8/10 (the bottle is horrendous and not elegant at all, but the sprayer is incredible) ------ Overall - 8.3/10 (Good!)

Trussardi Riflesso is an aromatic, woody and fruity fragrance. I had read about the resemblance to La Nuit de L'Homme by YSL, and now that I have tried it I can say that especially in its opening it bears similarities to both La Nuit de L'Homme and L'Homme by YSL, due to the floral aroma with ozonic sensation and tonka bean that also have the aforementioned fragrances. However, with the passage of time it develops its own characteristics, it becomes more fruity with a lot of apple presence and adds geranium and leather, which give it a creamy sensation.. The aroma seemed ideal to use in spring, but even more so in fall because of the warm notes it contains. Still, I think it could be used almost at any time of the year and in any situation. For those who want compliments with this they will get them. It lasted about 6 hrs. in my skin and a little more in clothes. This fragrance Is in the same style of fragrances as Boss Bottled and Allure Homme, because has fruity notes with a base of Woods and spicies. It is not a substitute or a clone for the YSL fragrances mentioned, but it does bear similarities.

What a charming fragrance; relatively simple, cheerful, bright and soft. The fruit is well balanced - not too sweet, not too sharp. I find it uplifting and comforting and although my teenage daughter described it as "beautifully generic", to me it is distinctive enough to be more than a little above my usual dumb reach stuff. (Given that generally I only go for cheapies under £30) It's a very versatile scent I would think - seasonally and socially. Could be a date night frag, if you were dating the boy or girl next door (ie. It's not a grand romance, sweep 'em off their feet style of thing, but it's cuddly for sure!) Office safe, unless you work in the ante room of Hades, in which case you'd be wearing Lynx. I just don't get why some people don't like the bottle; to me it's a pretty cool 50's style thing - looks like the fender on a classic sports car... So, this started off as a strong like for me and is creeping up to "love" status - like a relationship that begins with friendship and because of the warm, positive glow, builds into something lasting.

One of the best releases of the Italian "designer" perfumery in several years. Yes, maybe inspired by two well-known YSL fragrances, but maybe it improves both. As clear as it sounds... This one has its own vibe and "that" Italian style, sure. Also, It's masterly blended and the performance is good. Sophisticated, seductive, elegant... Trussardi Riflesso is a winning hand. ... For a modern gentleman. ------- - Longevity: +6h to 8h. - Projection: Moderate first 2h (1.5m), closer but persistent the rest (0.5m). - Mood: Classy, seductive, elegant, confident. - Ocassions: It's a great signature scent perfect for modern and charming gentlemen. Suitable for almost all situations: Office, dates, cocktails, afternoon & night outings, hangouts with friends, formal events... - Seasons: Suitable all year round, except the hottest & coldest days. This is pure Italian seduction. No more no less.
