Oh Romeo......
In the duty-free in airports one can run into the most forgotten and obscure scents...It is in an airport that I found Romeo again.
To my nose there are a few scents passing by in this most charming bottle: an aura of CK Eternity, a dash a DKNY, a hint of Manifesto...yet there is more, an underlying herbaceous nature that is aromatic and very relaxing without being medicinal. It is in fact a very pretty and well kept herbal garden with a citric aura.
Romeo Gigli Profumi has -on my skin- a lot of faces, but in the drydown it shows its true face; a multi faceted beauty that although at times (and no doubt on certain chemistries) seems fleeting, is a well crafted and very elegant Italian seducer, a Romeo that delights with soft kisses and a tender touch that beautifies and refreshes the olfactory sense.
A scent perfect for the office, or any other place/occasion where one wants to smell nice without that it fills the room. A bed-time scent or an: "I am not in the mood for a 'perfumy' smell yet I wanna smell fresh like I just came back from a long walk in the wind and passed some herbal gardens"
Romeo Gigli will give you just that; one beautiful and tender whiff at a time.
The bottle is a thing of beauty all on its own -- Why? Well....I have a LOT of perfumes, but none with a Shakespeare quote from Romeo & Juliet on it. Just for that I had to have this one (again) in my collection!
Romeo and Juliet: Act 3, Scene 2:
"Spread thy close curtain, love-performing night,
That runaways' eyes may wink and Romeo
Leap to these arms, untalk'd of and unseen.
Lovers can see to do their amorous rites
By their own beauties"
Silage is: a tender Romeo...what else? -- Longevity is....act 1, 2, and, very lightly into act 3. Enjoy! : )
