From A(qua) to Z(itrus)
After several "Aquas" I tested first F from Ferragamo and now Z from Zegna. Two fresh fragrances, which stand for their unconditional suitability for everyday use, combined with a quite remarkable quality for the rather small purse. Although both made it through my personal test phase with a 3+, they did not pass the entrance examination into my collection. But I really like fresh all-rounders. If I didn't already have 5-6 scents in the indicated direction and autumn wasn't just around the corner: Who knows?
Rather than F (described at the appropriate place) Z goes more in the aquatic direction, but does not have the intensive-penetrant something of Cool Water, of which I still do not know whether I should find it rather attractive or annoying. For me it's like sushi: Every now and then I really feel like it, but it's nothing for every day. Z is more like blue jeans or sneakers. For me it is better than the popular Nautica Voyage, it meets all the requirements of a fresh aquatic with a few floral to spicy notes that raise the fragrance above the "shower gel standard".
But I am currently comparing Z with Montblanc Starwalker, of which I still have almost 100 ml in stock and which I approve of the same suitability for everyday use... just "in better" (although even cheaper, if still available). This is not due to more endurance or strength, but to a more musky and spicy note and consequently less aquatics. All in all, however, I can definitely recommend Z for freshness fans. It is not an excitement, but a sporty and solid companion, if one has not already found it.
