Profumum Roma Dolce Acqua Eau de Parfum is primarily a scent dedicated to creamy, cherry-almond and vanilla that goes from incredibly sweet to more lightly spiced vanilla over time. There was some powderiness about mid-way through but didn't linger through the drydown, which was characterized by...
Profumum Roma Dambrosia Eau de Parfum is a love letter to figs from its earlier, greener stages to its jammier, ripened fruit. At times, it was grassy, then milky, almost like coconut, before sweetening, becoming jammier, and sitting on a creamy, almond nuttiness. The sandalwood played a minimal...
Profumum Roma Santalum Eau de Parfum is an ode to sandalwood in its woody richness, and later, creamier undertones, accented by drier spices and subtle sweetness. It had a cooler, earthier opening that lasted for less than 10 minutes before warmer sandalwood and myrrh arrived and pretty much never...
Profumum Roma Rosae Mundi Eau de Parfum is an ode to tea roses surrounded by woody stalks, fresh green leaves, and rich soil. The rose was the star, merely supported by the other notes, through the majority of the scent's life on my skin, though the drydown was progressively woodier over time.
Profumum Roma Alba Eau de Parfum is a softer gourmand that made me think of lemon-drizzle almond cake but someone went for reduced sugar, because it didn't have a genuine, cake-like sweetness to it; the fragrance was airier, smoother, and creamier. There were light spices that were hard to discern...
Profumum Roma Sorriso Eau de Parfum is all about the chocolate! It starts off with darker, almost bitter, chocolate paired with sharper orange. The chocolate turned drier, more powdered, then sweeter with creamy vanilla. As the scent developed, the chocolate became milkier, sweeter, and the orange...
Profumum Roma Arso Eau de Parfum is heavily smoked woods with a resinous undertone that gets less smoky and smoother, drier, and a little spiced and sweet as the heart unfolded. Initially, the pine was the most dominant wood but then dry cedar met it and harmonized as a duo of woods. The smoke...
Profumum Roma Dolci Pensieri Eau de Parfum is an indulgent, candied rose with sweet peony; the two together have an almost syrup-like quality and lean somewhat into the aroma of ripened fruit. The vanilla drifted in and out of a range of detection but was more present in the drydown where the rose...
Profumum Roma Fiore d'Ambra Eau de Parfum is a heady dance of white florals and amber. It is a linear scent that started with stronger, dry, powdery white florals before marrying with lightly spiced amber. The amber slowly enveloped the white florals with an almost caramel-like sweetness (it did...
Profumum Roma Patchouly Eau de Parfum is for those who love a darker, earthier patchouli with cocoa powder that softens and sweetens as the amber and sandalwood strengthen over time. The drydown was mostly patchouli-amber with darker, more resinous sweetness and a touch of spice. The notes are:
