Bel Sole
Bel Sole by Perris Monte Carlo is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with bergamot, cedarwood, grapefruit and cardamom, moves into ginger, lime and juniper berry and dries down to musk. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Grapefruit Bitter, slightly sweaty citrus. More grown-up than lemon.
- Cardamom Cool, aromatic spice with a eucalyptus lift. Smells expensive.
Heart
- Ginger Warm, zesty and slightly soapy. Bridges citrus and spice.
- Lime Sharper and greener than lemon. Reads a bit tropical, a bit barbershop.
- Juniper Berry Gin, basically. Piney, dry and bracing.
Dry-down
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
