Unico

Wow! Amazing and mysterious. Ambry smoky with blast of citruses at the beginning. Little fougier to my nose! As it dry down, it became little creamy and comforting. Totally worth for full bottle.

I have this by some miracle. It's a pine-woody realistic incense with a lot of green-ambery, sappy resin and a touch of sweet smokiness. This smells like an old brick church on a high windy mountain which refuses to buy mass produced incense and still makes their own from the maple forest nearby. Projection is about a foot. Longevity is more than needed. I like to wear a day and night fragrance, and this is strong enough for be both, so I don't wear it often. This is an extrait de parfum, which means 30%+ oil concentration. For all I know, it could be 40%, but I think it's somewhere around 30%. I would not wear more than two sprays if you're not going to be outside for the entire day. I recommend this fragrance for anyone who LOVES incense and LOVES photorealistic scents. If you want to smell like the you came back from a vigil in the forest, and not in a metaphorical, imaginary way, but in a very realistic way, then you should buy this. Despite the 30ml size, you won't run out of this bottle for a long time, perhaps years if you have a collection. If you have come across this fragrance, then you are probably so deep into collecting that you must have a lot anyway. As a niche and incense lover, I give this fragrance an overall 8.5/10. I positively recommend this to likeminded noses and will use this bottle until it's finished then keep it as a shelf decoration.

One more note. This fragrance is not linear despite the thick oils used. The freshness fades decently fast and it becomes a smooth, somewhat buttery sweet scent with a green spice on top. It is almost Fougere-like and leans masculine. There is an herbal, stem-like quality to it as well. Overtime, it dries down to the incense and the resin, which overall is pleasant and unique, and reminds me of the incense and frankincense and cedar in Boss Bottled Elixir (of course without the heavy designer sweetness) sitting elegantly on the skin and projecting by a few inches.

Unico from Italian House of Indie/Niche Haute Luxury Perfumery Unico Perfume is a Unisex Smoky Amber Oriental Oriental Eau De Parfum. It was released in 2020, is a creation of the artist couple Federica Russo and Giuseppe Amorese. This bottle of mine was the first launched by the House, in this first version in EDP only 67 bottles were produced. An authentic collector's item. A version in the Extrait De Parfum concentration launched in 2022 is currently in production. They intentionally disclose only a few key notes, so that each user is free to interpret their sensations. I feel a fresh citrus, soft, balsamic, differentiated, delicious opening, I would also bet on a fresh spice, maybe a green cardamom. The warmth of an exceptional ambergris also delicious with its famous characteristic salty and sweet at the same time and in high resolution. I also get a discreet fruity sweetness. This perfume is so delicious, bordering on gourmand without actually becoming. A powdery facet without a talcum powder or makeup vibe is also present. As well as a subtle tabacado chord that is not aggressive. Indie/artisanal perfumery, but not at all challenging. Delicious Perfume and Quality That Already Impresses. A pleasant surprise! Continuing... Soon a tea-like aspect arrives, bringing a slightly green and warm nuance to the perfume, intertwining with a fine clean incense mist, a mist of a pure and crystalline smoky incense, a sweet incense of excellent origin. All this makes the fragrance remain in safe and very pleasurable territory. Some dark resins were also used: probably labdanum and/or myrrh. I am truly impacted by the deliciousness of the fragrance and the very high quality of its ingredients. A beautiful composition that plays with warmth and freshness in a perfect and balanced way. Artistic perfumery without denying its main function: to perfume with pleasure! *Limited Numbered Edition: 60/67 Top Notes: Fresh Notes Middle Note: Amber. Base Note: Incense.
