minty fresh green
This is a very nice crisp refreshing scent for shure..
The mint and the tea is so well blended . i just got this bottle and dont know it will be in the summertime . But i can imagin this would be a treat on a hot humid summerday.
testing it now in Wintertime i still enjoy it.. It slike a fresh breth off air. cool winterbreath blowing thrue the forest off pine trees and cedar.. I can feal the flowrs linger to. I guess it is the Jasmin that makes me thing off spring and Narcissus aswell. There is somthing green like freshly cut flowers (narcisuss)and there is also that tiny wiff off Rose , just enough to give it some romantic feal and a little warmt..
The Grapefruit and citrus is also present. and makes it juicy fresh . its a tad dry in away on the grapefruit note .
I like this one very much. I blind bought it do to the fact that i wanted some more Minty forest feal like Nuit Etoilee
It had a tiny bit off similarity , but not much IMO. quite different in fact . this has much more to do about the tea note and a kind off chewing gum Minty feal
They are bouth beautiful in there own ways

hm im starting to feal that this is slightly to green for me. Not shure if im going to keep it after all...

Minty refresher
Aqua Allegoria Mentafollia is a wonderful summer edt. If you are a lover of mint, it doesn't get much better than this one.

The mint begins immediately, and the initial spritz carries some citrus with it as well.

However, in the heart of Mentafollia is a light rose, a hint of jasmine, and more than a pinch of tea. Together, they give the fragrance a lovely shape, if not depth.

To my delight, the mint note remains most of the way down into the base, which is vaguely woody, and very clean.

I am lucky - on me, Mentafollia lasts for hours. For an added summer treat, refrigerate it before spritzing, and it will help you through the most unbearably hot summer day.

Aromatherapeutic Mint, Mint, Mint
Well, I'll have to write quickly to get this review off, as the last few drops of my bottle of Aqua Allegoria MENTAFOLLIA are now mingling with my skin and will soon dissipate forever into the cosmos. I was reminded of this composition by HERBA FRESCA, mainly because I was so surprised that there should be two mint entries in the AA series. When I reached for my bottle of MENTAFOLLIA, I was also surprised to find that I had drained nearly all of the 75ml. I even had to wrench off the nozzle in order to access the last little bit!

To my nose, MENTAFOLLIA is a successful aromatherapeutic mint composition. This is mostly about mint, with an emphasis on spearmint, but some green tea leaves are present as well, ultimately producing something akin to the aroma of Moroccan mint tea. Although mint festivals are not really my idea of the basis for a bona fide perfume, I don't think that MENTAFOLLIA ever aspired to be such a thing. I regard this as a unisex cologne for hot weather wear. This relatively simple combination of notes is super fresh and super clean, in addition to being uplifting.

MENTAFOLLIA reminds me somewhat of the BBW TRANQUIL MINT line, which explicitly claims to be aromatherapeutic, and this composition is that to me. I would definitely consider replenishing my now-depleted supply of this refreshing cologne, so I'm obliged to give MENTAFOLLIA a thumbs up, but with the following caveat:

FOR MINT LOVERS ONLY!!!!
