Limonaia

Due to the loud clamor surrounding this essence, the hope of a miraculous feat tempted me—yet my spirits were bitterly deceived. It may be that the measure of the dosage caused my misfortune, or the elixir refuses to enter into harmony with my skin; nevertheless, it reveals itself to me merely as a thoroughly botched product. It seems synthetically forced to me and even carries the vile breath of harsh cleaning lyes.

Unfortunately, for me too, the citrus note in this fragrance has a rather synthetic vibe. Because of this, the scent unfortunately teeters back and forth between a cleaning product and the tart alcoholic drink, making it less like the limoncello that Nonna made herself from garden lemons, and much more like the mass-produced limoncello with added coloring to boost sales. A pity, because I usually really like the concept of a rather tart citrus fragrance.

Citron reminds me of refreshment sticks, it's not really an authentic fruit, but it's very delicious and addictive for that reason.
