Another hyped fragrance promising to revolutionize the world, but it also makes a huge splash upon entry. Gentlemen, this is a bomb; I don’t know whether to call it a masterpiece or just well-assembled. That almost rubbery oud is there from the start, giving off an asphalt vibe, like freshly tarred roads. Upon application, you get a citrus and pepper blend that reminds you of gasoline, but without the usual earthy or rotten tone of regular gas, always with a metallic touch. The dry down is curious. The mint is very noticeable, giving an exquisite green note that’s a relief, because without it, everything before would be overwhelming. There’s also vetiver, adding a spicy touch and reinforcing that greenery. I’m surprised the rose and neroli don’t have more votes; they’re crystal clear and project like iron for about three hours. It’s very distinctive and complicated; that rubbery oud is curious. I compare it to Fantomas by Nasomatto, something peculiar and unique. It’s quite unisex; cold and moderate temperatures are your friends, while heat would be madness. That spicy-green-mineral profile makes it ideal for formal or semi-formal occasions, but with certain nuances that require at least a blazer, not a tuxedo. It lasts 8-9 hours, on clothes I wouldn’t even count. In summary: something to stand out and that will make you explain the story of why the perfumer created it. Certainly, you’ll have more conversation topics.
Another fragrance with all the hype promising to revolutionize the world, yet it makes an absolute racket the moment you put it on. Gentlemen, this is a bomb; I’m not sure if I should describe it as a masterpiece or just a well-tuned machine.

Upon application, you get a citrus and pepper blend that reminds me of gasoline, but without that earthy or rotten tone of normal gas, always with a metallic twist. The drydown is curious. The mint is very noticeable, providing an exquisite green note that’s a relief because without it, everything else would be overwhelming. There’s also vetiver, adding a spicy touch and reinforcing that greenery.

A peculiar fragrance. Second decant I’ve bought, and same vibes. I like it a lot, but I’m not sure if I’m ready to buy the full bottle. Honestly, I don’t align with the impressions I’m reading about it. To me, it smells floral, with a strange aldehydic hint and a smoky part. I don’t get asphalt, gasoline, or leather, or at least not with the prominence others notice. Maybe the name guides people’s olfactory impressions. Given the theme, I expected something more masculine, but it seems totally unisex. The scent reveals the natural quality of its ingredients. Projection and longevity are very good (7-8 hours), and it stays closer to the skin. What I’d highlight most about Nuvolari is that I don’t think it reminds me of any other fragrance, and that’s a great merit.
This is an ode to the adrenaline of motorsports, capturing everything from the smell of asphalt to engine oil. Haha, Cristiano Canali is an olfactory alchemist who seems to have a doctorate in ‘olfactology’. This fragrance is as complex as a V8 engine, if you know what I mean. It’s a high-speed olfactory experience, I’d say. I’m blown away.
