Orange Crush

Fugazzi

85 /100

6 SPRAYS(8h)

A juicy, sweet, citrusy fragrance. Charming in its simplicity. Sweet orange remains the dominant note throughout the entire wear. Amber adds a pleasant warmth to the fragrance. Orange Crush reminds me a little of Moschino Funny! However, Moschino Funny! is cooler and more floral, while Orange Crush is fruitier, sweeter, and warmer. The longevity is impressive for a citrus fragrance – 5-6 hours. The sillage is quite soft. If you want to prolong that feeling of summer, Orange Crush would be a great choice. 🧡

Lake of Echoes

For the first few seconds after spraying, this fragrance reminded me of Chlorophyllipt, a throat medicine - damp, green, mossy and dense. But the effect faded quite quickly, and I began to notice patchouli. At first, it smelled deeper and more chocolatey. Then it became herbal and smoky, while the chocolate facet lingered only as an echo. At the same time, the fragrance once again became more medicinal. Patchouli dominates throughout the whole development, and I can barely smell anything else. Towards the end, there is a slight hint of labdanum, which also enhances the medicinal impression. Personally, I find this perfume difficult to wear, but for patchouli lovers, it could be an interesting addition to their collection. Longevity: 6 hours. The fragrance remains on the skin even after a shower. P.S. The perfume itself is green in color, as if it had been drawn from a lake in bloom, but it leaves no stains or traces on either skin or clothing.

Taro Whispers

Taro is a starchy root vegetable that is used in cooking as an alternative to potatoes. I’ve never tried any dishes made with taro, so it’s difficult for me to say whether there’s any similarity.🤷🏻‍♀️ The fragrance is undoubtedly gourmand, warm and cozy, but at the same time somewhat unusual and intriguing. On the first spray, I noticed sweetness, powderiness and a note I can’t quite describe. Gingerbread? Baba au rhum? Marzipan? Or old cookies in a grandmother’s cupboard? This note smells slightly caramelized, buttery and dusty, with a dense, slightly grainy texture. Maybe this is what taro smells like?🤔 Overall, Taro Whispers reminds me of the smell of baked goods. It starts out sweeter and more caramel-like, while in the dry-down, a vanillin sugar smell remains on my skin. Longevity is 4–5 hours, but the projection is weak and the sillage is almost nonexistent. I think it would be a good fragrance for autumn. This perfume won’t become one of my favorites, but it was an interesting olfactory experience.💛
