Hot of the shelves with the latest release from Cerruti, I passed on the original Vivo, although nice, itwas nothing special. The only other bottle from this house that I enjoy is 1881 Silver. The elixir on the other hand is a banger. Its bold, Intense & modern. Created by perfumers Frank Voelkl Grégoire Balleydier, it blends Eastern-inspired richness with a classic Western fougère structure, It opens with a bright, spicy kick. Pink pepper adds vibrancy, nutmeg brings creaminess, whilst the lavandin injects fresh, aromatic energy. At the heart it deepens into a warm, luxurious core. Saffron provides an exotic, slightly powdery richness, while vanilla & suede add softness, sweetness with a leathery texture. Moving into the base as it settles into a smoky, resinous, woody dry-down. Oud contributes dept with a touch of mystery, cedar adds crispness, and the Amberever molecule enhances longevity with a powerful amber/woody glow. Its striking contrast between fresh aromatic spices and rich, smoky orientals. It performs well, easily reaching the 7hr mark, it projects well for about 3hrs, before settling into a noticable scent bubble. An u usual bottle, looks like a soda can and there is a rotating ring around the neck displays the brand's "1881" code in multiple languages. You align the sequence "V1881" to unlock the spray mechanism. Best worn in the cooler weather, yet it's versatile enough for smartcasual wear, evenings out, or office use. My Rating 7.5/10 Scent 2.5 Longevity 2 Sillage 2 Y/N 1

Today I wore two fragrances. Woke up early and was in an office environment, so even though it was cool, I chose to wear my favorite PDM Freshie.. That would be Galloway. Although I love Greenley and it does have more longevity, I like the scent profile of Galloway better. It reminds me of driving through central Florida I the spring. With the pervasive scent of orange blossom just everywhere and delicious as well as impossible to avoid. The black pepper and musk blend with this accord beautifully. To me, this is about as good as it gets for a spring and summer fragrance. Moving on, as I'm wearing a fragrance just for me while being home after noon, I wanted to smell Blessed Baraja on my skin. I absolutely love this one. It projects wonderfully off my skin and leaves a pretty animalic, dirty, musky scent on me after a few hours (which I love!), even though it's a little bit funky. I feel like this is one of Initio's most underrated fragrances. Do you have any opinions on these fragrances?
