Descripción

My first perfume from the brand, and it’s really good. The opening was misleading: it’s totally masculine, alpha-male, hard, and intense. After a while, it softens and becomes fresher. You can detect the salt along with cardamomo and woody notes emerging in layers. Lasts about 10 hours on skin.
Foconero isn’t your typical summer scent; it’s citrusy without being citrus, salty without being aquatic. It has class, elegance, and body—nothing shouty. To me, it smells like a dense cocktail with citrus zest and a salty rim. I’m not sure if the price is excessive, but as a fragrance, it’s super cool, elegant, and wearable. It brings me back to a June in Milan, having an aperitivo on a terrace: well-dressed people, the river, the music, and great vibes. That’s Foconero. Others might just see it as a fresh, salty breeze.

It’s a fragrance with a familiar opening but different. Aromatic opening where you notice citrus, lavender, thyme, and something spicy, with that salty touch, the turning point. It becomes wearable due to its woody trail (oakmoss, cedar, sandalwood) in the dry down. It’s in the style of Percival by Parfums de Marly, but with many steroids. Notable long-lasting performance, heavy trail, looks better on spring and summer nights. Completely unisex, casual and informal, for people from 25 years old. Scent 8/10, Trail 9/10, Longevity 8/10, Projection 8.5/10.
Extraordinary perfume, one that smells different from others like Percival by Parfums de Marly or Green Irish Tweed by Creed. While it follows that style, it’s more aquatic, akin to Light Blue Intense, but with a twist that makes it unique by blending marine and green facets for great complexity. It has niche-level quality with natural ingredients. Although the longevity isn’t the best, for a summer scent, the performance is acceptable. It conveys the sea, tranquility, and cleanliness; it’s versatile and easy to understand. I recommend it, even if the price is high. The only flaw is the cap, which sometimes doesn’t fit well or stays on, a minor detail for this price point (similar to Mancera’s screw-top issues). The presentation and scent, however, are excellent.
It was one of the first luxury niche perfumes I was lucky enough to acquire; I don’t know why I went for this one, but I don’t regret it, I enjoyed it a lot this summer. Foconero has a bit of everything: the creator Paolo Terenzi was inspired by the Sorrento coast, that smell of the dock that mixes brine, greenery, and atmosphere. I don’t know if he recreated it because I wasn’t there, but it reproduces that feeling of salty sea with green tones well. Opening is creamy citrus, nothing sharp, clean lavender (steering clear of the old-school stuff), and juniper is the protagonist with bitter traces that pair well with the salt. There’s no seaweed smell; to the overall citrus and green, the salt gives it a marine twist and the ozonic notes add a spicy, airy vibe. Here come hyacinth and Ylang Ylang to give creaminess without losing the previous character; the juniper bitterness fades and leaves a salty, green citrus that moves toward woodiness with creamy sandalwood, soft. The weak point is longevity, normal for its price. It’s for summer or temperate environments to refresh, but costing €190 for 100ml, it could last longer. I love the presentation: a cool box, luxury in the relief of the golden sprayer ring, rectangular shape of the Classic line. I share that the cap comes off easily; it includes a practical travel spray without the luxury, hidden in the box, a detail that’s appreciated. Longevity is just okay, 6 or 7 hours on skin projecting for the first hour or so. It’s a delight, great for warm summer days, it shines then. It’s versatile, works for casual or formal wear, and at night it smells very refreshing. I don’t think it’s that easy or unisex; I see it as masculine, the juniper bitterness and salt can give an odd vibe. It feels niche, it gives a twist to typical blue or beach perfumes, worth trying before buying. I understand the comparison with Percival, but they don’t have much in common: Percival is more amber and musky, this one is livelier and more pleasant, recreating a port atmosphere thanks to the salt and ozonics. Maybe Percival pleases the masses more, but Foconero seems better to me, more complex and with greater evolution, something I adore in niches. A pity it’s so expensive; with a lower price it would be a must-have. A good perfume that left me satisfied with high note quality.
Hard to find; I don’t know why other Tiziana scents are easier to get. I really like it because, while it could go the typical aquatic route, being citrusy gives it a green touch that makes it creamy. I don’t wear it constantly, but I get bursts hours later, and people have complimented me when I greeted them. The cap is a hassle, but the presentation is clearly niche. The creaminess makes it pleasant, and it works well where it doesn’t get cold more than a few times a year. I like it and plan to get a backup just in case.
Extraordinary perfume, it’s one of those that when you smell them can be in the same style, not similar or equal, to others like Percival by PdM, Millésime Impérial, or Green Irish Tweed by Creed. It’s more marine, like Light Blue Intense, but it has a twist that makes it unique by combining marine and green facets that give it complexity. It has undeniable niche quality in natural ingredients. Although longevity isn’t the best, for a summer scent its performance is acceptable. It conveys sea, tranquility, and cleanliness, it’s very versatile due to its marine base and green accents. I recommend it because it’s easy to understand and pleasing, even if the price is high. What shouldn’t be allowed is the spectacle of the cap that sometimes doesn’t fit and can’t be held, a detail to improve as Mancera did with screw caps, but it’s minor. The presentation and the scent are good.
It seems hard to find, I don’t know why other Tiziana ones are easier to get. It projects a lot, because even though it follows the typical marine path, being citrusy it has a green side and becomes creamy. I don’t wear it constantly, bursts arrive a few hours later and people have complimented it at the end of the day when greeting me. The cap is a pain, but the presentation, not being the best, is clearly niche. The creaminess makes it pleasant and it goes well where it doesn’t usually get cold more than a few times a year. I like it and I’ll try to get a backup.
For me, this is definitely not a niche perfume, plain and simple. I’d be annoyed following so many people who claim scents like Layton aren’t niche just because the masses like them. This smells generic: it could belong to any blue fragrance, with similarities to Abercrombie and several Montblanc designer houses, which I’m far from. To spend that amount, it needs to be different, to turn my head, and that doesn’t happen. You’ve heard it a thousand times; anyone will think you’re wearing one of those evoked designer and cheap scents. It’s not purposeful, interesting, or fun; it’s an old formula as old as Coca-Cola. If they say it has poor longevity, turn it off and move on. It’s a generic designer fragrance in a niche bottle.
It’s like taking Abercrombie’s Fierce, using better ingredients, adding green, marine, and salty notes, and you’d have Foconero. Clean, bright, fresh, and masculine. It has generated compliments for me. Performance is moderate, about 6 hours; it projects very well for the first two hours, then it settles into a bubble. The price is high, but if you can find a deal, don’t think twice.
One of the fragrances that surprised me most positively when I bought it on recommendation without testing it first. I’m someone who applies perfume generously, so I don’t expect a spray to last forever; I use it 6 to 8 times and it lasts my entire 8 to 9-hour workday with a stable sillage. The scent is pleasant and invigorating; in my stressful construction job in Panama, it keeps my mood up and generates compliments from both men and women. It’s not a Fierce or a Percival (which I love and use to avoid trouble), though if there’s a family resemblance, they’re second cousins. It reminds me more of Oceanía by Roja in some facets. I collect fragrances because they make me happy first, then others; I hate having to explain why something I wear is art. If you’re looking for something pleasant, easy for everyone, that generates favorable attention without being overwhelming and makes you happy all day, it’s worth trying.
One of the fragrances that most pleasantly surprised me after buying it on recommendation without testing it first. I’m one of those who applies perfume; I don’t expect half a spray to last seven centuries. I use it 6 to 8 times, and it easily lasts my entire 8 to 9-hour workday with a stable bubble. It smells pleasant and invigorating; it puts me in a good mood in the stressful construction environment in Panama City and generates compliments from both genders. I try to understand the urge to categorize it as Fierce or Percival (which I love and use to avoid trouble), but they are distant cousins, nothing redundant. It seems more akin to facets of Roja’s Oceanica. In conclusion: I collect and use fragrances because they make me happy first, then others. I feel I have to explain why a fragrance is art or purposeful. If you’re looking for something pleasant, easy, that generates favorable attention, doesn’t overwhelm, and makes you happy all day, it’s worth trying.
By the way, the price isn’t an issue; you can easily find it online for around $100, much less than what designers charge for their fragrances.
From my perspective, this is what Percival by Parfums de Marly should have been. Foconero is the niche version of Percival, with an upgrade in performance and quality. It could remind you of Fierce’s DNA, but broadly speaking, they’re definitely not interchangeable (though that happens with Percival and Fierce). Despite being niche, it remains very pleasant: fresh, ozonic, and salty, with that last note mixed excellently. It’s sharp and noticeable. Personally, it’s well worth it. If you like Fierce, the Montblanc Legends, or even Percival, this will likely be your taste too.
Personal opinion: This is what Percival from Parfums de Marly should have been. Foconero is the niche version, featuring an upgrade in performance and quality. It recalls the DNA of Fierce, but it takes things to a whole other level and is definitely not confusing (unlike the confusion between Percival and Fierce). Despite being a niche fragrance, it smells amazing: fresh, ozonic, and salty (don’t let that note fool you; it’s blended excellently). It’s sharp and noticeable. It’s absolutely worth it. If you like Fierce, the Legends by Montblanc, or Percival, you’ll probably love this.
Lately, there are reviews that attack others’ perceptions; people who are intolerant or believe in a supreme taste. But watch out: reviews aren’t sacred, tastes differ, and you need to form your own opinion. There is no single best fragrance for everyone; tolerance and respect are key. That said, Foconero didn’t excite me at first: the lemon is there, but it’s very artificial and clashes with the salt, which I’ve heard with such clarity only a few times. It smells dirty, impetuous, and unbalanced, as if all the ingredients are fighting for control. But it needs time; it reinvents itself. The lemon fades, ylang-ylang enters, and the salt shines like under the sun, with cardamomo. The sandalwood is shy, the cedar is integrated, and the oakmoss is wonderful. Over time, it becomes creamy-aquatic, soft, and rounded. It has a slight fougère DNA with lavender that moves it between aquatic and fougère. It’s not totally niche; it’s a group of pleasant fragrances for the day that don’t stray from the norm.
