Hmm... When I read the comments here like this, I begin to doubt my olfactory sense. Animalistic? Sweet? Leather? Oud? Can't smell anything. Maybe it's hiding in the back corner somewhere.
My first association: 80s men's shower gel "Sport", admittedly in a noble variation and very loud. I had sprayed this on a hut hike in the Alps with a generous spray and reaped an "oh - freshly showered" from the waitress at dinner.
Other assosciations are actually Tiger Balm and Vicks Vaporub - especially if I don't dose the substance extremely carefully. Maximum one spray - if you can do it, better half a spray. Then I also feel some wood in the fragrance. I'm wearing the scent on my forearm right now, eight hours ago a short spray - chocolate or animal? Absolutely not to be smelled.
I really think V. is way too loud. Olfactory techno disco with the level at its peak. Two sprayers of this are a good recipe to keep the environment at bay. At the beginning of my perfume affinity I was enthusiastic about this extreme durability and silage, meanwhile I find it too penetrating.
The crazy thing is that if I dose it very carefully, I don't think it's bad at all - but anything but gourmand or pleasantly wrapping. And I also perceive forest very differently from virid - perhaps a eucalyptus forest

This is a fragrance that you wouldn't necessarily expect from maestro Alessandro Gualtieri. Most of the perfumes from this brand are very controversial, but Viride is extremely pleasant and pleasing. Beforehand, I would like to point out that my review will be very subjective as I am a fan of the Orto Parisi and Nasomatto brands and have tested and have many of their fragrances in my collection.

The name Viride says it all here, the scent is green through and through, reminiscent of a damp forest with beautiful spruce and cedar, and someone has even lit a bonfire in the distance (slightly smoky) I would classify the scent as a fougere and perceive a pleasant floral. The lavender in this fragrance is exceptionally beautiful and lends a gentle freshness. I also maintain that Gualtieri has added a small pinch of oud, which gives the perfume a certain depth. I'm not sure if tobacco plays a role, but as the fragrance progresses, I perceive something similar to tobacco.

Viride develops floral and powdery. In the drydown, only musk and woods remain. The composition is not sweet for me. Who is this fragrance made for? For someone who doesn't want to make a flashy statement with their perfume, but who goes through life with confidence and knows exactly what matters."
It is not a blind purchase. (Like all other fragrances, it had to be tested)

The Green Afghano?
Take an exhausted Black Afghano, fly it into the depths of the Brazilian rainforest and leave it there for a few years. After a few years, you come back to him and no longer see the Black Afghano, but this very Viride.

It has a lot of the Black Afghano. The smokiness, the wood, the cannabis-like note. But it has that one crucial difference that makes it so unique. The green. It's a real wall of green when you smell it for the first time. A wet forest and its soil come to your nose. The wood, the leaves and the earthy soil can each be perceived very well and quite authentically.

For me personally, it is less wearable than Black Afghano, but as an art object and olfactory experience, it is clearly the more interesting fragrance. There aren't that many strong, authentic green fragrances that aren't turned into some kind of summer scent and massacred. A really interesting and cool green fragrance for fall-spring.

If you like Black Afghano and want a really good green twist on it, you've come to the right place.

Weaker version of Amouage Bracken
A pleasant green fragrance, despite it doesn't bring anything new. The fragrance opens with a synthetic grassy note, maybe there is some pepper, cedar wood (?). The unisex fragrance leans a bit on the feminine side, with moderate sillage and longevity. It reminds me on a cheaper take on of Bracken by Amouage.

Green softy
It is possible that I have a less powerful version than the old ones, because I would say that in terms of silage and lasting it is a rather weak creation of Alessandro.
As for the smell, it is a "simple" fougere that for me has nothing special, it is only correct. It is a green scent of ferns, oceanic forests, not conifers, and not green like mint and eucalyptus, nor like fresh grass.
I would say that it is a classically masculine fougere, relatively elegant and quite discreet.
Another dissappointment, as I am quite fan of Gualtieri, not one of his many haters around there.

A slightly bitter, yet fresh and clean spicy-green Fougère, balanced by a dusty earthy resinous-woody base. Nice evolution. Male-oriented.

Green, velvety, woody, earthy, with the slightest sweetness of conifer wood drying off. More masculine, really beautiful and elegant.

High levels of clove-camphor give a slight medicinal taste to the herbaceous greens. Part lumberjack, part dentist
