Top notes are citron, lemon and bitter orange; middle notes are orange blossom, neroli, sichuan pepper and rosemary; base notes are vetiver, patchouli and amber. The bottle feels heavy and the cap is solid metal, overall one of the best bargains I've come across in fragrance.
It smells 95% same as 4711, just lasts good amount of time and 4711 vanishes without a trace after 1 hour.You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. A bright burst of citrusy 'well being' that always takes me back to my childhood when a bottle was always available for the whole family to use ! These type of bright fresh topnotes tend not to have longevity - an acknowledged problem with even the priciest of the ‘family’ usually mentioned along with Bright Neroli (we’re looking at you, Neroli Portofino). They mention that it's an excellent fragrance from an excellent seller, with a stunning masculine fruit scent.
Back in 2018 when it appeared this fragrance was most popular, I had my doubts about Ferrari's Bright Neroli because, well, what on earth would a car company know about fragrances? However, an important caveat: in my experience citrus scents perform with greater variability across skin-types than do any other scent group. This fragrance is totally unisex and doesn't lean masculine or feminine (as is the case usually with neroli-based fragrances). It's Spring now, and my mandarins, and Meyer lemon's are in full bloom, with my grapefruits budding and ready to flower. I guarantee you if you know those cereals you will know exactly what I mean when you smell this fragrance.I'd like to preface this review by saying Neroli/Citrus Blossom is one of my favourite natural scents, if not my absolute favourite. While it's more of an ambience than an attack, you can still detect it on skin up to 5-6 hours later. It isn't artful, but the effect is that it lasts considerably longer than many other releases in this style (though it's worth mentioning that even the heavily applied neroli does fade away at a certain point, giving the spotlight over to a "white floral" heart, which is more prominent here than in other notable neroli fragrances, like 4711 or Neroli Portofino). I find it interesting that others are saying it is more feminine, but since I am used to looking through the world with a feminine lens that could be why.
Firstly, in terms of fragrance it's different in a way that will be preferable to many; the neroli note is brighter, for example and Tom Ford went back to create an 'Acqua' flanker of NP precisely to cater for this.
The middle notes feel highly "refined" and subtle, akin to a well crafted cocktail of orange blossom and rosemary.
Great Deal
