The Italian kiss of the cherry blossom
When I leave my apartment building to go to the bus, I pass a short path lined with four trees. Inconspicuous, a passageway through the maze of high-rise buildings. But for about three weeks a year, the path between the trees turns into a sea of pink blossoms and announces exultantly, "Now it's really spring!"

What I enjoy here with us mostly quietly for me alone, is in Japan a giant event. The annual cherry blossom and the associated Hanami festival is so important to the Japanese that even in the blossom season daily in the news is reported by the degree of opening of the flowers in the various areas of Japan and at the end, in addition to the weather map also a "cherry blossom front" map is inserted, which shows where the pink blossom dreams are just in full bloom

Again, so much culture board in advance of the scent description I, know, but I just can not resist sharing interesting with you, sorry, not sorry.
But yes I come now also to the fragrance. Acqua di Parma interprets the cherry blossom, how could it be otherwise, with an Italian/Mediterranean flair. The prelude of the fragrance is the citrus, which, I am now already accustomed to the brand, again very natural effect, although these are not as intense compared to the blue Mediterraneo series, they are here only companions and not star of the perfume.
With the citrus then also quickly mixes a cherry note, this initially reminds more of the fruit than the flower, but in the course of the perfume it becomes more and more floral.

Then in the heart we have a really beautiful cherry blossom. Delicate, sweet and gentle, it envelops and caresses one, like a pink silk scarf that gently brushes the face. This fragrance does not shout out its existence, it does not need to. Like the delicate pink flower whose name it bears, it is a stylish understatement. To put it in colors: it is pink, but not squeaky candy barberry pink, but an elegant gossamer pink hue. This then also becomes paler and paler towards the end, when the white musk mixes into the fragrance and lets it fade gently.

A little Japanese spring in Italy
My signature summer fragrance 2019 was for me quite clearly "Sakura" from AdP. A surprise from Italy that really stays in your nose. Acqua di Parma rocks a new page with its "Signatures of the Sun" Collection. Transparent flacons with black label and golden writing. Fits the rest. Simple and noble but also more expensive than the yellow or blue squad in the assortment. The other self-confident offshoots of this collection should also be appreciated for their looks. (Camelia, Osmanthus, Vaniglia and Yuzu). Osmanthus was also high on my list this year.

To the fragrance itself:
This is how quality smells from start to finish. Sakura generally doesn't smell like every scent out there. This fragrance makes it different and really good. Light, sublime, eye-catching and flowery. This fragrance is not off the peg and immediately indicates that it has class. One smells here that this smell will not be so favorably to be acquired. A scent of quality must first be able to achieve this. Here one gets mediated rather to wear Dior or Chanel Cotour. Bravissima AdP.

Opulent open the soft mandarin and is followed by a kind of mild honeydew. A sparkling golden yellow bergamot sweetness. But it doesn't last too long. It is replaced by a noble freshness. This freshness carries the colors Sakura flowers pink, white, light blue, but also yellow/orange. There's nothing Cyrtrically angry or colognesque about it.
I don't feel the pepper much. Everything makes him quite feminine in the beginning and then he swings into a unisex scent. Gentle men dare you!
The Sakura flower simulated here is rather a young green rose, almond blossom, marzipan, cream, pink chewing gum ala Hubba Bubba and cotton candy. Light musk ala Micallef is extremely valuable. The fragrance doesn't seem 1 second heavy! So in good German stay fresh and flowery white all day long. A clean scent for Japanese majesties.
Everything never gets in the way anywhere. Gently woven and sealed. What a perfume! The creepy thing is the veil you pull behind you. You want to talk to such people, covet them, embrace them. It's magical.
I can't get that smell of green almonds out of my head.
Smell inexperienced customers could nastily call him a flowery marzipan water based on musk.
But at Parfumo we don't think that one-dimensionally. We are kidnapped into a simulated Japan in April, in Osaka, where all the Sakura trees bloom. We are prince or princess all in white and we wander through a sweet-fresh rain of flowers. You can already tell I'm not very good with the kitschy.
Just let yourself be kidnapped. Experience royal lightness. I got the 180 ml bottle right away.
Let's see if I still want to share some of it.
If I give nothing, 20 and 100 ml are also available

Delicate cherry blossoms
I deliberately chose the title tender cherry blossoms because the blossoms are very tender and fragile, beautiful with a gentle fragrance. I find the fragrance fine in its kind - somewhat fruity with pleasant but restrained sweetness, flowery floral this but very subtle, almost only a veil. I see him more in the ladies, but please also the gentlemen used perhaps now and then this direction ( why not). After approx. 2 hours the tender cherry blossom says goodbye and is only very weakly perceptible. It leaves a creamy fine sweet powdered trace on the skin. A great candidate for the summer and for people who follow the motto - less is more. I like the mixture of everything a bit, it develops in a word very fine and feminine. Price in the upper segment, beautiful bottle and a recommendation for the tender beings among us who want to spray themselves rather carefully than strongly.
