This fragrance is a bracing cologne of coastal Italian citrus
rinds-chinotto, blood orange, cold-pressed lemon and green mandarin with
ambrette seed & clean musk.
There are many variations on cologne. The original Italian, French,
German, and Hungarian recipes usually call for citrus (lemon, bergamot,
etc.), herbs (lavender, rosemary) and neroli (orange blossom
distillate). The scent is instantly recognizable. Most classic colognes
are very pleasant. Every day wearing for that out-of-the-shower scent.
With varying degrees, they often do not last. Eau de cologne technically
refers to the low amount of fragrance oil in the final product. They
aren’t traditionally built to last.
D.S. & DURGA's Italian citrus varies the formula in a few ways to create
a fresh citrus scent where the citrus actually last into the dry-down.
Firstly, the citrus pallet is wide. They use five distinct coastal
Italian fruits in a certain proportion to create a bright beginning.
There is the most Italian of fruits – Bergamot, lightened with the even
fresher, yellow amalfi lemon, the oceanic select red mandarin distillate
(with its peculiar clam note), sweet red blood orange, and bitter orange
chinotto peel. Instead of the herbs of classic colognes, they use violet
ionones to keep the sweet going south. In the base the liquid crystal
smell of copaiba balsam, a white resin from South America, blends with
incense absolute, and oakmoss. This gives an after thought of citrus.
Copaiba for the fresh peppery bergamot, incense for the orange-lemon
notes, and oakmoss for the green. Overall Italian Citrus is lush and
lasting and the fragrance, like the Italian coast, is carefree and
bright.
