Bianco Puro
Bianco Puro by Tiziana Terenzi is an unisex extrait de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with bergamot, mandarin and lemon, moves into saffron, clove, mango, lavender and caramel and dries down to patchouli, vetiver, myrrh, musk, sandalwood and vanilla. Expect around 10 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Bergamot Sharp citrus with a faint bitter edge. The opening of about half of all men's fragrances.
- Mandarin Soft, sweet, almost powdery citrus. Gentler than orange.
- Lemon Clean, sour, instantly recognisable. Bright but burns off fast.
Heart
- Saffron Leathery, medicinal and slightly metallic. The signature of modern niche.
- Clove Hot, dry and dental. Powerful — a little goes a long way.
- Mango Thick, sweet and tropical. Creamy rather than sharp.
- Lavender Herbal, clean, slightly medicinal. Barbershop in one note.
- Caramel Burnt sugar. Rich, sticky and unapologetically sweet.
Dry-down
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
- Myrrh Bitter, smoky resin. Ancient-smelling and slightly cool.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Vanilla Sweet, creamy and warm. The most comforting note in perfumery.
