recently got a 5 ml decant of this and I'm blown away. best citrus fragrance for me, massive projection, with a single spray, my gf and my mom both said it is so strong they can't be around me, meanwhile I couldn't even smell it. I think this fragrance has a note or note combination that really reacts with women's senses. This is a truly remarkable creation and definitely the most wearable out of the Orto Parisi collection. Can't recommend it enough if you want a super strong citrus fragrance.
It’s a masterpiece, crushed orange green leaf along with the crushed over ripe almost rotten in the sun oranges. I don’t get the sweatiness at all but it’s deep and dark as far as citrus goes. Doesn’t project as a beast but it definitely lasts and lasts
I definitely get a more lemon-lime like smell from this one. Animalic body odor type musk at the top but dissipates quickly on my skin. Sandlewoody base helps this last forever.
This is a magical fragrance it opens up as strong citrusy but quickly in turn in to this musky sweet fragrance i was blown away as when it opened i was like woow thats too strong citrus buy but very quickly in like 10 mins in turned into so musky and i loved it i just ordered my full bottle now along with Megamare both are beast
I have a friend who makes dupes of fragrances and he said, that for him, orto parisi as a house is hard to duplicate because they use very expensive materials, he already cloned hundreds of fragrances and the most expensive to make was clone of megamare
@@rightlyguided2201 I’m happy to know Gualtieri is using expensive raw ingredients! The synthetic nature of the smell doesn’t correlate to expensive in my head.
@@SeldomlyOften Aaron Terrence Hughes said in his Begamask video that, Bergamask has the most expensive synthetic molecules, so yeah Alessandro uses only synthetics but the highest quality ones.
Bergamask makes huge use of Javanol which is a synthetic Sandalwood aromachemical and it is hella expensive. Especially for the high oil concentration in these fragrances we can say that it does cost a lot to produce
Cool cool. Recently been wearing quite a bit of Cartier's Declaration edt getting me back into that methylhexanoic acid vibe. 😄 Certainly not a scent for everyone, but also strangely alluring with that bitter orange.
On the bergamask cap there is an insert in Ethiopian horn, as on megamare there is a mother-of-pearl insert, and in terroni there is a piece of lava stone, and so on.....
Hi, I don't understand why my Bergamask lasts a maximum of 35 minutes, an hour. Same thing with the one from the perfumery, same batch 01245. It's not a fake, it's 100% original. Online I found several users who complain about the same batch and not only that but also about others. Is something like this possible? But in these cases shouldn't that batch be recalled? Because it's the Orto Parisi and Nasomatto that has the least performance among all the ones I own. In this circumstance what should I do. Thanks
@@MrRoccale not really sure how it works with recalling. Longevity is highly subjective because of how you evaluate it. Some people consider longevity only the projection phase, others the full skin scent phase. I’m kind of in the middle and Bergamask last like 8 hours easily on my skin.
Definitely agree with most of the comments. Iv definitely had mixed feelings from other people Towards it lol . Think there’s a few others from line I prefer, but still happy I own a bottle . Thanks 4 the review 👍
I have a love/hate relationship with this one. Some days, it's a super-addictive, animalic citrus musk. At other times, I can't help but think of overused urinal cake.
yeah I totally get it and can 100% relate: really loud, bold fragrances can be fatiguing so it's 100% normal to have to be in the mood for stuff like this.
I just got this. I honestly can't smell the citrus at all. Seems more like the sweaty, earthy, musky smell, and that's all. When I think citrus, I think Hacivat. This didn’t give me anything close to that. I guess, like you said, it’s a different citrus that i don’t recognise. It also didn’t last as long as i thought it would. I really enjoy the way you review.
I've been interested in trying this one for a long time. I think it is time for me to finally get a decant so I can try it out. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
This reminds me of my trip to Napoli and amalfi coast ( different citrus in this region I know) in a heatwave a few summers ago. My wife absolutely despised the opening, she ran away for the opening. It’s less animalic than musc ravageur to me. I enjoy it but not sure if it’s the ‘ultimate’ citrus, I only have space for one more in my collection. If you had to recommend an alternative to sample, long lasting but maybe less animalic what would you go for? Thanks
Ok I think it’s user error, just rewatched the vid again. I accidentally got a bergamask facial when opening this sample capsule. Then I dowsed both my forearms in it thinking mmmm nice citrus. I’ve accidentally bombed my entire house with this scent 😂😂😂😂 ffs. Complete user error and skill issue.
Hey man, those capsules are dogs**t so not totally your fault. If you find this too animalic and sweaty you might want to try out Acqua Viva by Profumum Roma.
Try hatkora wood by ajmal. It is very close to bergamask but opening is a bit different, not so animalic I would say. Definitely same DNA with Bergamask. Aqva viva is citrus, but way different overal.
Been looking to get a sample of Bergamask without success but I recently got a sample of Megamare, and having heard so many colourful descriptions of the scent I was a bit let down. It was much more linear than I had imagined and surprisingly not that challenging. Beast mode for sure but not really my cup of tea, still willing to give Bergamusk a chance though, as I like the idea of having a statement piece as well as a conversation starter fragrance in my collection.
Orto Parisi as a whole should be approached as 'wearable statement pieces', it's the best way to accept them. As per Megamare, try wearing more of it (or even less) and in different places. It's a weird scent that could lead you to be blind to it.
@@SeldomlyOften I think you described it perfectly in the video but to reiterate I agree that without the story element it all kind of falls apart. Nothing wrong with that as it’s all part of the wearing experience. Also thanks for the advice, I’ll give Megamare another go.
@@SeldomlyOften It was one hour after i sprayed it. I get the synthetic essence of this perfume but i love the blending and i don't give a rat's ass about negative opinions about this one, i have it in my top 10 to buy list for quite some time, i think it's time i make myself a present and buy it...
This fragrance is basically huge amounts of Javanol and other sandalwood like aromamolecules + citrus + lavender and thus Orto Parisi signature musc. The sillage is killer.
... and those synthetic materials are not exactly cheap, I might add. So we get good ingredient value for money, on top of the eccentric style of perfumery and excessive performance. Good stuff and very inspiring...
It's a rabbit hole. Very soon you will have hundreds of raw materials on top of your collection of commercial fragrances. There are quite a few molecules, commercial bases and musks though that you can safely wear as minimalist/solinote perfumes without having to blend them into anything - if your nose can smell them at all. For example I find javanol difficult to appreciate in isolation... I believe it is the main component in one of the "Molecule" series scents.
@@lidoraz6974 it’s potent stuff, I spray 2-3 sprays under my t-shit or shirt, it helps smooth out the bright opening and makes the muskiness a lot more subtle and realistic. The cool thing is that everyone has different needs and wants 😊
@@lidoraz6974 it really depends on the frag and on the person. This one is quite abrasive in the top and quite potent on the bottom, putting a layer over it really helps make it more wearable. I might change it up according to the temps and the situations. I'll definitely make a video about spray routines.
@@ognjencorovic I wonder how many people would pick up the funkiness without a hint. I would think most would more likely say it smells like bathroom cleaner than sweat.
I highly, highly disagree calling them a "synthetic mess" that's insulting man. Synthetic? OP has some of the most pure, aged ouds I've ever smelled and I'm middle Easter before you get an ideas of me not knowing about oud.
@@isamahdi3367 I don’t mean it in an insulting way AT ALL. Synthetics are totally fine, they allow for a powerful and extreme rendition of the ingredient they are portraying. Orto Parisi is a bold house with bold statements, to achieve this you need to skew towards chaos, somewhat abandoning balance and elegance. I love Gualtieri and all his stuff btw 😌
When I tested it in store a while ago I was underwhelmed. I’ll give this and Megamare a full wear and I’ll come back with my full opinion. I’ve always stayed away from aquatic perfumes, My first one will be Megamare, I feel like I need to go “balls deep” for my first one (the phrase fits the brand so I had to 😂).

@@SeldomlyOften I expected something so potent that will blow me out of the water. The opening was pretty nice, and the drydown was unique and musty in a good way.

@@PainfulPig Bergamask is not super complex or anything so there is that. Most imagery comes from association and if it wasn't for the marketing I wouldn't have picked up on much. Once there though, I could tag it to my summer memories in the fields.
My first impressions of Bergamask weren't great initially, I thought it was just citrus and lavender in a nuclear kind of way which I found boring. But after wearing it a few times from a decant I got to see the interesting musks and how it can move around especially on a very hot day. In the opening I do recognize the bergamot, in a Earl Grey tea fashion rather than a juicy citrus fruity way, which is interesting. It's super powerful and long lasting which is nice when you keep getting whiffs of it for hours and hours.
I also agree that the heavy marketing and brand image is detrimental and key to Orto Parisi at the same time. Would I have given Bergamask as much attention if it wasnt advertised and hyped as being nuclear and somehow sweaty ? Would I have given Megamare a second thought if people werent writing whole paragraphs about how long lasting it is, maybe. At the end of the day they're all growing on me and interestingly enough the first one I bought was Boccanera when I knew almost nothing about it, so maybe that tells me the fragrance itself could conquer me without any over the top edgy narrative to it.

@@SeldomlyOften Of all of them I'd say Boccanera may be one of the ''friendliest'' ones. I never saw the official samples but it sounds like they aren't great ahah, that's a shame.

I feel like a handful of them get most of the attention online which is too bad, I'd love to hear more about Viride for instance, that definitely smells unique.
Great review but I disagree completely this brand does not use high quality ingredients; especially, Bergamask, it is the complete opposite. Super expensive stuff being used in this fragrance. Although, I do agree about the marketing being genius and giving more insight of what each one of this brand's fragrances is trying to do. Bergamask is my favorite from Orto Paris linei alongside Megamare. Curiously, my aunt hates it. Just yesterday, she told me I had applied too much perfume and that I needed it to tone it down, but in reality I had just used two simple sprays hours ago,
I also like Bergamask and Megamare the most. When referring to "quality" I wasn't speaking in monetary terms as I have no idea of the costs of raw materials. As dumb and as shallow as it sounds, a lot of Italians tend to cut corners and Gualtieri's approach to synthetics might justify that approach even more as 'he does what he want's because he is edgy', kind of thing (I'm Italian btw); this is a product of marketing also. I don't really care either way, if I like the smell of something I'll use it, if not, I won't, no matter what is in there :)
