Acqua Fiorentina
Acqua Fiorentina by Creed is a feminine-leaning eau de parfum from 2009 in the luxury price tier. It opens with apple, bergamot and blackcurrant, moves into damask rose, peach and jasmine and dries down to sandalwood, cedarwood and white musk. Expect around 6 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Apple Crunchy and tart or soft and red, depending on the treatment.
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Blackcurrant Tart, dark and slightly catty. Adds bite to florals.
Heart
- Damask Rose The rich, jammy, honeyed rose. Deep and slightly wine-like.
- Peach Fuzzy, warm and slightly creamy. Soft rather than sharp.
- Jasmine Heady, sweet and slightly animal underneath. Rarely subtle.
Dry-down
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- White Musk Clean, soft, laundry-like. The 'smells like nothing but better' note.
