Ambiguous, noble, and highly contrasting, the Malatesta fragrance celebrates the grandeur of an Italian noble family, revealing its most intimate secrets. Its graceful floral and oriental notes embody the daring, cunning, and heroism of the legendary clan, narrating its stories and passions that unfold within the walls of medieval palaces.
The scent opens with expressive citrus chords of orange and mandarin, surrounded by the powdery shades of sensual musk. The luxurious heart, filled with nuances of honeyed jasmine, gentle lavender, and precious animalistic leather, seduces and beckons to follow the call of the soul. In conclusion, you will enjoy the tenderness of sweet vanilla, surrounded by notes of dry wood, sharp pepper, and smoky sensations.
I bought a branded sample after reading enthusiastic reviews that it's a masterpiece. Well... the name translates to 'foolish, stubborn', but I feel like 'bad taste' is a more fitting translation. Because it smells like boiled carrots spread out on a piece of paper. I've tested it in various ways, sniffed it over and over again, hoping to detect something leathery... Nope. And the longevity is not impressive, despite being advertised as a long-lasting fragrance. In short, it's not what it claims to be.
