Idilios by Rubini Profumi
Cristiano Canali, 2025.
The newly launched Idilio is very different from the rest of the line.
Andrea follows the path of slow perfumery at its best – his perfumes are rounded, polished compositions deriving from the condensed idea.
I tested Idilios when the fluid was just produced and three hours old, but it smelled very promising. Look at the picture: blue sky, silky clouds, and pink inner glow. That’s Idilio — quietness, inner peace, and satisfaction.
Regina Vergine by Cristiano Cavagna
2025.
Regina Vergine (2025.) delivers an interesting contrast of green top and honeyed, waxy, warm and sweet drydown.
This is the fifth addition to the Cristiano Caravagna line La Tuberosa Secondo Me, inspired by tuberose.
Hakuna Matata by 27_87
Rodrigo Flores-Roux, 2025
The founder of 27_87 Romy Kowalevski, grabbed the attention with a single message: “Bananas are taking the stage – vanilla is over!” and presented a memorable fruity-floral-amber: Hakuna Matata is a blend of banana and white florals, supported by musk over radiant and warm amber-vanilla base.

Jasmin de Toscane by Jacques Fath
Jean-Christophe Herault, 2023.
Tilia by Olfactive Pharmacy
Mark Buxton, 2020.
Olfactive Pharmacy caught my eye because of the coherent visual branding that follows the story and the concept, quality packaging and three interesting perfumescreated by Mark Buxton.
Olfactive Pharmacy is a German apothecary brand from Köln, founded by the pharmacists Oliver and Holger Dubben.
I liked on-the-spot Tilia, a vivid, delicate and faithful interpretation of linden blossoms in a spring air – a light composition, wearable as a go-to, but with character.
Tendresse d’automne by Tobba Parfums
Jasper Lie, 2023.
Le Grand Jeu by Voyages Imaginaries
Isabelle Doyen, Camille Goutal 2021.
The tropical composition is opulent and quite sweet but radiates from warm, sun-kissed skin in a very refined way.

Sex and the Sea Neroli by Francesca Bianchi Perfumes
Francesca Bianchi, 2019.
Summer is dense – so why hold on to the stereotype that summer scents should be light, transparent mists?

Chemical Love by Maison Olibere
Luca Maffei, 2018.
