Zhirinovsky White

Zhirinovsky White (Jean Jacques Vivier's creation) is a wonderful scent for spring and summer, very citrusy and fresh, mild spicy and woody, a versatile scent for any occasion. The notes are: Top Notes aldehydes, sea water, orange and mandarine Middle Notes ginger, rosemary, bergamot, cedar, chilli pepper and neroli Base Notes sandalwood, amber, musc, tonka bean and egyptian vetiver It opens very citrusy, sour juicy oranges followed almost immediately with aquatic mandarines, a beautiful fresh combination. There is also at the background a note of lemon-floral-soap feeling, very weak, very discreet, almost undetectable but nice. After some time I get the mild ginger, the weak rosemary and the vivid bergamot along with vivid cedar. There is also a mild sweetness with a pinch of bitter, without overpowering the citruses especially the orange which is here. I guess this is a beautiful neroli note. The pepper is very discreet. When it dries down I can feel the vetiver, the sandalwood well mixed with amber and vivid musk. The tonka bean is very light, almost invisible. The longevity and the projection are both moderate with 4 sprays. I highly recommend it as a spring-summer office scent or for every occasion as it is very versatile, pleasant to the nose and non offensive. The quality of this juice, is remarkable for the price range it belongs. Just close eyes and smell it. It's not a cheap scent's feeling. It is sold in 100ml EDP bottles.
