Milano Fragranze Panettone Eau de Parfum manages to seize the scent of freshly-baked panettone; stuffed with orange zest and raisins soaked in rum kneaded into buttery dough. It was candy however not overwhelmingly sugary to me, because the orange lifted it, the butter enriched it, and the rum added depth to the vanilla. The notes are:
- prime notes: bitter orange important oil, mandarin important oil, ginger important oil, carrot seeds important oil, davana important oil
- coronary heart notes: Rum Pure Jungle Essence, Eternal flower absolute, tagete seeds important oil
- base notes: Vanilla absolute, vinyl gaiacol pure
The opening is a distinction between sharp, candy, and bitter earlier than smoothing and billowing with springy, buttery bread. The primary minute had an underlying bitter citrus layer with juicy, freshly-squeezed orange dribbling over, with rooty, carroty sweetness. I used to be making an attempt to decipher the entire notes–and ran out of time!–earlier than it was wealthy, buttery, and flaking with a bready high quality and nearly no citrus left to speak about.
Given one other 5 minutes, the citrus got here again and remodeled into extra candied orange and rum-soaked raisins enveloped by candy bread–precisely what panettone is. They married collectively right into a extremely gourmand, decadent deal with that evoked the actual deal. It was fairly linear from this level with the perfume getting barely weaker over the subsequent a number of hours, however the spiced fruit and buttery bread features lingered, albeit softer.
Software
For testing, I used 1/3 of a 0.7ml pattern vial dabbed to the underside and topside of my wrist space on my left arm. I used an unscented moisturizer previous to making use of the scent as that is additionally my swatching arm (aka, extremely parched at any given second) as I discovered scent didn’t maintain effectively right here in any other case.
Longevity
It lasted for eight hours till it was a skin-scent and about 14 hours earlier than it was fairly tough to detect on my pores and skin. The sillage and projection have been average with the sillage not beginning to drop till the third hour.
Private Ideas
Panettone was one thing that I made a decision to strive alongside a really espresso gourmand scent–why not!–and it was spectacular simply how reasonable it was. For that side, I had fun testing it out and seeing the way it wore, but it surely didn’t convert me into shopping for a full bottle as a result of I do know I’d favor so many different perfume types over this.
