The more I wear I realize that something in the drydown reminds me of Clinique Happy.
Fresh bright citrus, but on the sweet candy like side. It's unfortunate how accurate and pure it smells, although, to most it'll come off as that "artificial flavor candy" scent. But this is what Amalfi lemon actually smells like. The base is very well done, you can smell the Lavender all the way down, good and long lasting too. Great for summer. Lasts long even while sweating outside.
Perhaps not surprisingly, Mandarino di Amalfi Acqua is very similar to Mandarino di Amalfi. There are differences but they are of nuance rather than of substance. The Acqua version is always an intimate scent from start to finish. It has aspects of both Monotheme's Verde d'Arancia and Mandarino di Amalfi. There is the opening which gives you mandarin, grapefruit, mint, bergamot, lemon, basil, shiso, a hint of black pepper and floral notes fifteen minutes in. About 50 minutes in it's gone more Italian classic cologne with the citruses turned down. There's also some coriander noticeable at this point. Three hours in the coriander and the black pepper have gone. Now there's mint, basil, jasmine, shiso, musk and a general floral accord. It stays this way for another hour or so before it starts to fade slowly. Four hours in and the drydown is very reminiscent of the Neroli Portofino drydown with a bit of extra herby green and soapiness added in. Five and a half hours in it's broadly the same - a rather nice soapy, clean, musky, herby accord. Seven and a half hours in and it's really quite faint. Nine hours in you have to go hunting for it on your arm. Eleven hours in and it's just about gone. At the risk of stating the obvious, Mandarino di Amalfi Acqua is a perfume for day wear rather than going out in the evening, and it's a spring and summer one, although I think it wouldn't be out of place in the very early autumn. I prefer the original Mandarino di Amalfi to the Acqua version but I think the price is prohibitive for a proper full bottle.
I love it! My favorite summer scent!!! It smells clean soapy citrousy! Exactly likes its name it smells sweet minty mandarin! And the best of all is that lasts I can smell it on my clothes after one day and on skin lasts all day! Such a delightful joyfull fragrance!
Nice scent. Reminds me of orange tic-tacs.
