Fragrance description

Italy is my favorite travel destination which I appreciate for its atmosphere, fantastic food, architecture and joie de vivre. The perfume I would like to present to you today reminds me of a typical spring morning in Italy after the rain, when the sun is shyly peeking through the shutters, life in the fruit markets is already in full bloom due to the loud conversations of the residents, and there is lemonade made from freshly squeezed fruit on the table.

Cologne Cédrat is an extremely refreshing perfume based on citron, which is considered the ancestor of all citrus fruits. Sparkling, juicy citron oil from Italy opens the scent and it's incredibly intense and photorealistic, like peeling a giant lemon and dragging its peel across your face. I love this opening, which is effervescent, strong but not sharp, very natural, slightly spicy thanks to the combination of black pepper oil from Madagascar and pink pepper from Argentina.

The citrus is present from start to finish, but over time the scent becomes woodier, slightly herbaceous, thanks to the combination of bergamot and yerba mate, which give the scent a slightly more masculine undertone, making it more long-lasting and moving the composition towards modern cologne which is also long-lasting, especially considering its citrusy character.

Although it is not a revolutionary fragrance, I love Cologne Cedrat, because it is fresh and clean, but also very classy. Like all the fragrances of this brand, it offers us an amazing experience, especially with the high quality that shows the beauty of the main ingredient, surrounded by other perfectly selected ingredients that highlight its different facets.
