Neroli Mediterraneo
Neroli Mediterraneo by Perris Monte Carlo is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with bitter orange, mandarin and bergamot, moves into ginger, geranium, neroli, orange blossom, petitgrain and sichuan pepper and dries down to cedarwood, iris and musk. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bitter Orange Marmalade without the sugar. Sour and slightly medicinal.
- Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
Heart
- Ginger Warm, zesty and slightly soapy. Bridges citrus and spice.
- Geranium Rosy and minty at once. Reads masculine more often than not.
- Neroli Distilled orange blossom. Green, soapy and elegant.
- Orange Blossom Sweet, soapy and sunny. Neroli's warmer sibling.
- Petitgrain Bitter twigs and leaves of the orange tree. Dry and a little green.
- Sichuan Pepper Buzzy, citrus-tinged pepper. Tingles rather than burns.
Dry-down
- Cedarwood Dry, pencil-shaving woodiness. Clean and structural.
- Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
