Are you kidding me?
Ah Bottega, ... you have such a beautiful bottle, but what is wrong with you? Because scent progression, durability and sillage are a single trio curiosity. Or is that just grumbling at a high level and I should have totel my Kommi merely "funzt with me not"?!
Hm, at least I'm not the only one who complains about a too short shelf life ...
The opening and the first half hour are top: very fresh by the fruity bergamot, the bright pine and the slightly sweet, yet spicy juniper - striking, expressive, special. But then a light resin comes in, which seems a bit overdone, but fortunately is only more noticeable for about 20 minutes. After this three-quarters of an hour, the fragrance now projects very nicely, as the rest of the heart notes increasingly join in: (even) more spice from spicy allspice, cushioned by a lovely labdanum and later a pleasant leather. A masculine and warm melange at the same time - great! Henceforth, this hardly changes, but thins out somewhat in the next 2.5 hours - at the expense of the sillage.
And that's it, at least on my skin.
What a short pleasure! But a shelf life of just under 3.5 hours, it can not have been. Drum had to comparison purposes a second test here:
Hardly sprayed on the shirt, showed basically the same course, but on the one hand about 20% more intense and on the other hand significantly delayed - so it seemed to me: three sprays in the chest area were the first hour really pleasant, but in the connection was now the shrill resin still a little reinforced by a light leather, which seemed more dashing here than on the skin. And this mix then lasted longer than 2 hours, until the fragrance began to slowly harmonize again, reducing its projection back to half arm's length, and thus smelling better. So what works on the skin after three quarters of an hour, occurs on a shirt only after a good 3.5 hours! Really too bad. Thus, unfortunately, the fragrance flops for me, in that this EDT either smells great on the skin, but with max. 3.5 hours much too short, or about the same time on a shirt too demanding, and only then really pleasant to wear.
So that's "not right with him" or "does not work with me". The only advantage: on a shirt projects the fragrance depending on the textile 10-12 hours at half arm's length. Kind of crazy and therefore also to be advised against a blind buy. Because should not be found for this Italo somewhere an instruction manual, you will certainly hear many a resounding echo in the community that calls there
