Iridescent green leather
Let's face it, what qualities does a good summer fragrance need? It should be fresh, cool and give the feeling of carrying the shade of a small forest by the sea, but it should also be independent, radiate a personal touch and thus stand out from the mass of fresh fragrances. And of course it shouldn't fly away within a very short time
"Agua Fresca Vetiver" combines all these qualities. The fresh citrus notes in the opening are accompanied by tangy spicy and green notes, with neroli and clove dominating at best, the flowers serving at best for the scent coloring, but are actually not perceptible at all. Also the sparkling fresh Vetiver is present from the beginning, has in this fragrance rather a striking cypress character.
After only a few minutes the impression turns into leather. What makes "Agua Fresca Vetiver" special and unique, however, is the interplay of the leather with the cedar and the earthy notes, which, together with the vetiver, determines the scent for a long time, distinguishes it strikingly from other compositions, contrasts it brightly and darkly skilfully, like deep, warm rays of sunshine the leaves and needles shimmering green in this dense, cool, still dewy cedar grove, on a summer morning, which is just cool enough to wear a leather jacket. This impression lasts a good four to six hours on the skin, on clothes all day long. The Sillage is approximately one hour long on arm-length before it withdraws something nearer to the body. Ambergris and patchouli serve here at best as fixation, are hardly noticeable even in fade-out.
I found my summer scent here by blind purchase. There are hardly any other possibilities than such, as one has to order the fragrance from Spain, but it is so unbelievably inexpensive that one cannot really do much wrong. Especially since the "Agua Fresca Vetiver" can easily hold a candle to much higher-priced scents!
