Somewhere between fresh laundry in the wind and vacation under palm fronds
...I find Siracusa.
It's a feast for the nose.
Why does hardly anyone talk about you with the intensity with which they talk about Duchessa?

Basically, this may be a personal problem, but fall and winter fragrances find their way to me much faster than anything fresh, floral and summery.
Siracusa was one of the first fragrances that caught my attention so much that I had to have it.

It's so special.
Somewhere between citric, creamy and green (how the hell does palm leaf smell? I've realized that since Siracusa. I'm thrilled!), it strikes the right balance and envelops my senses with a surprisingly intense longevity and sillage for a fresh fragrance.
It sets the mood for summer, palm trees, sun, beach vacations. At the same time, it has too much citrus to be one of the many sun cream fragrances, although it does have a touch of this vibe. It has a pleasant freshness, but is not a pure fresh underwear fragrance.
It combines the best of all summer fragrances in this direction for me (except for fruit, which is absolutely not here) and thus leaves out exactly what makes me avoid many perfumes labeled as summer fragrances. It's not too creamy, it has tension, it's fresh, but not too fresh...
For me, it cuts an excellent figure in any situation in spring and summer, it's not too shouty or loud anywhere, but not too quiet and unobtrusive for the evening either.
For me, it is perfectly balanced and tuned.
It definitely symbolizes one thing for me: the balanced middle between everything is not always boring.
I am thrilled.

A summer fragrance with a really good shelf life
The house of Gritti is known, at least by me, as a house that seems to create summery scents.

i was allowed to test Pomelo Sorrento briefly, but I wasn't blown away by it. But I also have to say that I didn't really test the fragrance intensively. Nevertheless, it didn't strike me as a fragrance that would appeal to me.
I had only tested Arancia Ambrata intensively, but that didn't really appeal to me either and now this candidate came under my nose.

At the beginning, you are greeted by a lovely, fresh start that is also slightly creamy at the same time.
You immediately get summer vacation vibes! Lying under a palm tree, the sun shining and enjoying life. Pure summer vacation! Summer, sun, sunshine!
It's slightly creamy, citrusy and as silly as it sounds, the fragrance is reminiscent of a palm leaf.
Unfortunately, I hardly notice the almond note, but the vanilla note is perceptible in the background and rounds off this whole summery flair completely well.
Pure summer! Really a pleasure so far and makes you want to go on summer vacation!
Over time, a sweetness is added, but it is not as annoying, unbearable or even penetrating as with other fragrances Some note makes the fragrance super delicious and therefore special. but unfortunately I can't define exactly what it is, whether it's the creamy notes or tiare, I can't say for sure.
The fragrance still radiates the citrus paired with a creaminess, but a minimal floral note is now also added and all this is supported by a wonderful vanilla note.
Really super successful! Up to this point, the fragrance really is a wonderful summer scent!
Over time, a certain solar note is added and this is the first damper for the fragrance, because it is annoying and also pungent.
But in the fresh air, this note tends to fade into the background, yet overall the fragrance is just great and the fact that it is still perceptible after about 2-3 hours is surprisingly good for a summer fragrance, especially when you compare it with the other summer fragrances from the house that I have been able to test so far.

Over time, the fragrance becomes creamier and creamier and now dominates more and more. The citrusy notes also recede more. But the creaminess still gives you a light summer vibe.

In the drydown, the fragrance now becomes minimally smoky and the sandalwood note gives the fragrance a gentle finish. The creaminess is still there but now rather subtle.
I was also surprised that the fragrance really lasted all day on my skin.
Really impressive for a summer fragrance and damn rare.

I think the fragrance is super successful and this one solar note was the only negative thing I noticed, but fortunately it tends to fade into the background in the fresh air.
But the performance for a summer fragrance is really excellent and in combination with the fact that it is really well made and also smells great, I hope it will move in with me for the summer at the latest.

Oh, I'm already looking forward to summer :-)))

The fresh laundry scent
Siracusa can be described well with the word "extraordinary". On the one hand, the fragrance smells of a kind of sweet note (chewing gum note), which probably comes from the almond - on the other hand, for me it is also a great fresh laundry fragrance that fits perfectly into spring/summer and also has a good shelf life. Despite the chewing gum note, the fragrance is by no means unpleasant, but this is what makes it special and gives it a slight "creaminess"

Summer fragrance
This was my summer fragrance for this year and probably next.
It was the first fragrance I smelled and bought from Gritti. Since then, I've been a big fan of the company and now own several great fragrances from Gritti.
The first spray is quite intense and reminds me of chlorine.
This first bite in the fragrance subsides within a few minutes and a summery, creamy scent develops.
For me, it lasted wonderfully throughout the day and the sillage was really great for a summer fragrance!
The fragrance is very individual, like most Gritti fragrances, and has earned me many compliments.
Going for a walk in San Marino with this? Yes definitely!

Freshness in a bottle
I bought the fragrance some time ago and have now finally tested it for some time. In the opening, the fragrance is citric and aquatic, with time you can smell the almond note and in the dry down the vanilla is still easy to smell. I associate this fragrance with freshly washed laundry hanging on the line in bright sunshine. If you like clean scents, this is the one for you. H/S is average
