A marine fragrance with a different opening
The opening is like it has a lot of seaweed, really marine and an effect similar to anise, probably is the mix of bay leaf with some other note.
A lot of bay leaf in this stage, I don't know if I like it or not, but it's fresh, it's summer.
Good opening projection, more than a meter and a half.
After 10 minutes a strange phase begins, it has a sweet part due to the grape that is very noticeable, I think the combination does not add up, right now this sensation of sea-sweet does not make sense, it is not unpleasant, it simply does not add up much , although it is quite unique.
So we have a very marine opening, afterwards a sweet-marine part and now the marine-mint combination begins to dominate, and very pleasant bursts come, the mint reminds me the one used in AdP Colonia Club that almost gives a more spicy cottony sensation, than sharp mint, it's an easy to wear marine fragrance with some surprises during the first stage.
After 3 hours it seems that it has gone but it holds, blurred but already present in the form of a fresh breeze, which forms a pleasant bubble.

The best Frangrance One until now
The first feeling is quite good, it feels like you are smelling something of good niche quality.
The mandarin is delicious, oily, woody, with a touch of vetiver, all well sustained, more serious and more mature than Date without a doubt, it does not have the sweetness that I didn't like about it, it's something else, although I understand that it has some date dna in common. The wood is very noticeable, nothing artificial.
The aroma is not groundbreaking but it's really well done, a kind of what Parfums de Marly offers but richer.
It's long lasting, and with perfect sillage, it's not close to be soft but also not overwhelming (it is more content than Date) and you can smell bursts all the time.
Black Tie is elegant, classy, masculine, except summer and the warmest part of the spring is totally versatile, it can be used in any situation, I have tried all three by Morillas from this house and I think this one is the best of them.
Although it isn't listed in the notes, it has to have leather, a leather with more quality than Guilty Absolute but more tamed, with that dark, masculine and lively wood and the orange that remains quite well, is the main accord.
Although I have found it to be an excellent perfume, the price is high compared to what can be found in that range, they are simply in different leagues, but it is not the only brand that does it, there are many niche houses that do the same and they don't have so much bad hype, the bottle is the most beautiful of the line, matte black, the cap and the box are a shame, there is nothing good to tell about it, there are Walmart cheap perfume packaging with better quality. But talking just about the juice, it's over a mid-range quality perfume, for comparison I think it could be in the cost range of half it official price.
Smell: 8/10
Longevity: 8.8 / 10
Sillage: 7.7 / 10
Price: € 329 / 100ml
Recommended: High (in sales, 50% off)

Fresh salty citric potion
Foconero is different from the typical summer scent, it's a little bit citric without being a citric perfume, it is a little salty without being marine, it has class, elegance, body, nothing garish, for me it is the sensation that leaves a cocktail of these thick with a little citrus peel, and the salty edge.
I don't know if the full price is excessive to be honest, as a perfume I find it very cool, elegant and wearable, but apart from that it brings back memories of when I was visiting Milan one June and we had a cocktails evening, with people well dressed, on the terrace, with the river, the music, the good vibe, that's Foconero.
But there will be people who will find one more salty fresh perfume.

Magic by Paolo Terenzi
First sensation is that we are smelling something serious, full of quality and complex, like a mix between the sweet oud sensation of Kemi by Kemi and Black Phantom.
The opening is balsamic, leathery, with a sweet touch, some earthy feeling, it is sweet but not too much, and with oud, it has a green touch, bay leaf and pepper are noticeable, all very balanced.
He manages to mix and create something, not just a succession of notes, as as it progresses he tends to a tobacco, with jacket-type leather and a pinch of honey.
It seems that it may be an excessively heavy perfume but it's not, the balance is so good that everything is well integrated and it is one of those that surrounds you.
Projection and performance, without complaints, high, you feel bursts all the time.
It's a difficult perfume to classify, enveloping, a little sweet, a little fresh, a little dirty, trying it is very worthwhile.

Amazing quality-price fragrance
Let's start with two things, first this fragrance was 7€/60ml that it's absolutely lovely for the quality, the fragrance is fresh, clean, with a lot of lemon but also you can feel the mandarine and the soft musk in the base, beautiful. But also let's be honest it's rated nowdays with a 8.5, it's not even close to that. Just because something it's cheap there is no need to score it with that rate.
You want a citric cologne, with no artificial smell and with a touch of softness, go for it! also it's an EDP so it's not bad around 3/4 hours of good longevity. More than recommended as a basic citric one above the ones that you can find for that price, even the bottle is quite nice.
