Fig Infusion by Essential Parfums
Aromatic, green and woody, Fig Infusion is relaxed and vivacious, and feels airy, creamy and soul-soothing, like being pampered by a deep shade in the peak of a summer heat.
Neroli Mediterraneo by Perris Monte Carlo
Ethereal Neroli Mediterraneo, the latest contribution to Perris Monte Carlo Italy Collection, stays elegantly bright and crisp all the way.
Riviera Verbena by Nicolai Parfumeur Createur
Riviera Verbena (2022.) is light, summery, full-profile marine, with a touch of verbena.
Naples by Gallivant
Naples works as a piously smoky panorama overlayed with yellow, brown, blue and grey, presenting nature and history of the place, but without the noise and fuss the people create.
Le Grand Jeu by Voyages Imaginaries
The tropical composition is opulent and quite sweet but radiates from warm, sun-kissed skin in a very refined way.
Nin Shar by Jul et Mad
Nin Shar is a mythical tale about the oriental, empress rose, her hedonism, and her partnerships.
Jicky by Guerlain – In memoriam Sir Thomas Sean Connery
Each time I became enough annoyed to contradict the theories of “male” and “female” perfumes, gender and fragrant creation, I resorted to Jicky’s argument and the name of the famous actor.
Jardins de Misfah by Une Nuit Nomade
Jardins des Misfah is a rose-centered summery oriental-gourmand.
Pride, Grasse, Monopteros by Der Duft
Rosy and powdery, dry and fresh, light and aldehydic Grasse won me over.
Fils de Dieu by Etat Libre d’Orange
Fils de Dieu by Etat Libre d’Orange (Ralf Schweiger, 2012.) is one of my favourite summer fragrances.Balsamic, citrusy, aromatic, warm, slightly savoury, coconutty. The bottle is almost empty, and I am still enjoying it as much as I did in the summer of 2013.
