Lavanda Fizz by Esperienze Olfattive

*****
Year: 2011

Notes: bergamot, grapefruit, verbena, lavandin, lavender, neroli
As the name suggests, Lavanda Fizz is a sprightly hesperidic, spiked with some lavender, within the context of a classic Eau de Cologne (but in Eau de Parfum concentration).

With a wonderfully effervescent citrus and lavender blast, its natural freshness is truly captivating. The demure verbena reinforces the citrus aspect, but it's the sweetness of neroli that adds a lovely touch to the composition as a whole. Right until the very end, all the ingredients are well-proportioned and blended exceedingly well, with a drydown that's just as sweet, bright and clean as the mid notes.

Perfectly unisex and extremely easy to wear, it's literally a breath of fresh air when compared to many modern, and somewhat ostentatious, niche releases. Possessing modest sillage, and persisting for around three hours, one wished it lasted just as long as other releases from this impressive niche house.

Regardless of this minor quibble, it's an excellent effort that all lovers of Eaux de Cologne should investigate.
