Aureum by Stefano Ricci

A pleasant orange with a good touch of ginger and a slightly green undertone - that is how this starts out.  


The drydown adds a fresh jasmine note, but it is soon loosing the floral side when a spicy-gingery-clover cluster enter a the scene.  At times incense is present too, but in the low-key manner that is neither ceremonial nor haughty.  


After a short while the sweeter side of this composition is revealed: cinnamon and tonka.  This sweetness never overpowers the rest of the mix, and remains obediently incorporated into the whole.   The blending of the citrus/floral/spicy components with executed well.  


I get moderate sillage, very good projection and six hours of longevity on my skin.  


A nice scent for warmer autumn days or evenings; well balanced and made of good-quality ingredients.  3/5.
