Rosa Limone is a citrus, floral, Amber scent created for Men and Women in 2022.
Review
This scent is immediately fresh and tangy with the brightness of Sweet Lemon and Pink Grapefruit. A note labeled Marine Accents adds a slight aquatic vibe, and Damask Rose can be felt just under the surface, but this is not a Rosy fragrance. Amber creates a soft warmth in the base, with Agar Wood adding a hint of a woody quality. In the opening, it creates an essence of sipping on Lemon water on a terrace overlooking the sea. As the Amber sets in, it feels like being on at terrace in the evening with the warm air floating around you as you take in the sparkling moonlight on the sea. It remains very fresh and light, making it the perfect casual scent. It will work well in an office setting as well as for running errands or relaxing on your day off. It is suitable for all seasons, but will feel best in the Spring and Summer time when the sun is shining bright. It has been vaguely compared to Chanel Chance and shares similarities to the Perris Monte Carlo Italian Collection. Try this sample and let us know what you think!
Inspiration
Rosa Limone is the perfect marriage of Rose and Lemon. It is “pure vitality in liquid form”, evoking Summer in an aquatic garden.
Notes
Sweet Lemon is felt immediately upon first spray, giving a nice tang to the start of this scent. Pink Grapefruit matches this tangy energy, with Mandarin and Bergamot helping to keep things refreshing. Marine Accents add a faint aquatic vibe as the gentle floral nuances of the heart set in. Damask Rose lingers softly, but never makes this a truly Rosy scent. The Rose is paired with lush Jasmine, earthy Geranium, and the creamy essences of Iris and Ylang Ylang. Even with all these flowers, nothing ever becomes too floral. In the base, Amber and Ambrette Seeds bring a subtle warmth. Creamy Sandalwood pairs with the Amber notes, mellowing any sharpness that comes from the Patchouli and Agar Wood, which bring a gentle woodiness to the finish of this scent. Even with the warmth in the dry down, you can still feel the sparkling qualities of the citrus notes from the opening at the end.
