    I recall the old bottle; and I also recall if that’s not the best gourmand I”ve ever smelled. Then it becomes a scent you just want to spray in your wrists to boost your mood. This is a scent that you can spray to impress, feel happy, and relieve stress. I might get it in the casamoratti new bottle

    Hey Sebastian, once again... fantastic review! This is one of the best gourmands I've tried to date, absolutely top-notch stuff. I love the way you really dive into the details of different notes, it makes it really easy to imagine what to expect. The explanation of the caramel/toffee/butterscotch differences was a really good touch, I also hadn't known! The fruitiness thing to me actually came from the fact that the almonds bring out an amaretto/marzipan experience, which to me has similarities to cherry, kind of like how Dr. Pepper has a marzipan-ness about it. I hope this helps, and thanks again for the content 🙏💯

    I also got the Italica today. I have applied this and I am enjoying it as you speak and to be honest, yes, I get the fruity note, the berries. To me, this smells like toffee with berries. Delicious fragrance. And you are a master at describing fragrances as they truly smell.

  • @femlin1994
    @femlin1994 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I should test this again. I felt like the dry down was very different from the cold sniff and initial spray. In the dry down, I got an Allende and La Capitals vibe, which might explain the fruity note. It also reminded me of Cruz del Sur II (which I love) with the lactonic note and it just seemed like too much information. I washed it off afterwards, which I now regret. I’ll give this another try.

    I'm looking to pick this one up in the winter. I received a sample of this with 1888 (Wow), Mefisto (great tea) and Dolce Amalfi (Wow). I immediately picked up the bubble-gum Dolce Amalfi for summer, and Italica also blew me away similarly but for winter. Truly edible smell, I have to imagine if you caught a glance of this on someone in winter you'd be pretty impressed by what hit your nose. I'll probably go 100ml but I'm only concerned that it will last the rest of my life given the potency.

      Okay it looks like that's not entirely correct. They're in the same family of tree, but independent trees. The almond tree is actually more closer related to the peach tree than cherry. However, there is a similarity in the smell due to this relationship, and that's from benzaldehyde (present in almonds, apricots, plums, cherries, peaches). It's also apparently a byproduct of the deadly poison cyanide, which almonds produce in their shell, and eating a handful of raw wild almonds could kill a child.

    I'm in the minority here I guess but I did not like this one. I love gourmands but this was too almond-y or something. Lira is my favorite. Just wanted to say that I don't think it's a safe blind buy. Thanks, Sebastian!

    Hey! I tried it in store and wasn't really impressed, tbh... Felt a bit too sweet for me. It's Xerjoff, so the quality is there, but it seemed borderline sickening. Maybe I need to spend some more time with it, have a full wear. Maybe sometime it'll happen... Loool One that I love and that acts pretty beastly, that I don't see mentioned anywhere, is Prada's Infuson D'Amande... Strong almond and Iris. Packs a punch, creates almost like an aura of softness floral base for a strong almond scent, that's not sweet to my nose. It's not quite gourmand, but I find it pretty unique. Love it! Just curious if there's other people that know of it... Thanks for the video, Sebastian!😁👍

      @@Summerdew123 I don't know if it's a skin chemistry thing or not, but on me it's pretty beastly... To the point that's one of the few fragrances that I can't wear around my neck cause it literally chokes me out, even with just one spray... Or maybe different formulation? Don't really know, but I got mine a few years back. I've used a few others of the same line and, though performance varies, never seemed weak to me...

      @@Summerdew123 Yeah, maybe it's really a batch thing. You're right... Nowadays you never know! 🤷🏻‍♂️ I tried a sample of Lira and it was pretty powerful in the beginning, but if phases out quickly, like fireworks! Loool Thanks your comment + answer! 😁👍

    I didn't like it because it smells so much like cherry and surprisingly there is non on Fragrantica notes.

    Fuuuuuuuck I didn’t need you to do this! I have a 5ML I’ve been using and I looooove it! I’m gonna get it eventually I just don’t want to drop $305 for the 100ML. They did just make a 30ML but it doesn’t have the tassel. You’re a bad influence, I have vanilla diorama and ambre nuit on the way now. Great review, I’ll just go ahead and get this I guess.
