Vecchi Rossetti by Hilde Soliani Profumi

*****
Year: 2008

Notes: bergamot, violet, rose, iris, leather, vanilla, waxed woods

Comment: Vecchi Rossetti is part of the Teatro Olfattivo Parma 08 Collection

"Vecchi Rossetti evokes the smell of the old Camerino theatre, of makeup and aged wood, of flowers and wax, of the air of solitude and fulfilment so characteristic of a theatre empty after a successful performance."

     ~ Hilde Soliani

Vecchi Rossetti is a beguiling potion that perfectly assimilates the above notes into such a masterfully blended whole, emitting a porcelain-like nostalgia to a glamorous bygone era. Contrary to popular belief, one personally doesn't find anything noticeably musty or stale about it.

With only a lenient smokiness being discernible, the presence of the honeyed iris-infused powderiness resides at the opposing end of its olfactory spectrum. With hints of violet, rose and woods, it's a fascinating and unique creation that retains a linear lipstick-stained elegance throughout.

Occasionally teasing with restrained wafts, whilst in possession of exceptional staying power, it's definitely the jewel in the crown of the Teatro Olfattivo Parma 08 collection.
