Fragrance Review - Alba di Seoul by Santa Maria Novella

🔥

The opening of this fragrance is soft and creamy. At 15 minutes the scent is still soft, and I am getting a soapy undertone. I am not picking up any Green or Pine notes yet. As the fragrance continues to develop, at 30 minutes this is another fragrance that truly does not reflect the notes and accords listed on Fragrantica. To my nose the fragrance is soft and creamy with some sweet undertones. I am really not getting any woody or green accords. At dry down this fragrance has become a skin scent with some mild projection. The fragrance has dried down to a clean Lavender scent with a slight creaminess to it. Not bad, but also nothing spectacular. I would wear on a flight or to a meeting where I did not want to overpower the room. Performance is fair, but this is definitely a scent that is made for the wearer to enjoy and not so much as a compliment getter. Longevity on my skin was about 4 hours.
