Maestrale by Profumo di Pantelleria

*****
Year: 2006

Notes: bergamot, rhubarb, rum, coriander, cardamom, lavender, carnation, jasmine, iris, vetiver, cedar, ambrette seed
A salty woody-musk concoction, with touches of rhubarb, coriander and cardamom would be the best possible description for Maestrale.

Quintessentially masculine, the citrus and rum are too ephemeral, with a nearly inconspicuous floral heart that only serves to add a slight sweetness. Later on, the vetiver imparts a woody dampness, which complements a discernible plant musk denouement. But, generally throughout, the cedar is the star of the show.

Both simplistic and minimalist in its stature, it stays close to the skin and possesses average longevity.
