Share what you noticed: opening, drydown, sillage and the moments when it works for you.
It works well for me. At first, neroli and juniper jump out. Then the spices blend with geranium and statice. In the dry down, there’s a green, resinous, incense-like scent from the mix of vetiver, pine, spruce, myrrh, and frankincense. It reminded me of Loewe Essence, but Itasca feels higher quality. Ideal for spring, summer, and autumn, perfect for daytime wear. Long-lasting scent with moderate sillage.
It works well for me. At first, neroli and juniper jump out, then spices blend with geranium and statice. The base is a green, resinous, incense-like scent from vetiver, pine, spruce, myrrh, and frankincense. It reminded me of Loewe Essence, but Itasca has better quality. Perfect for spring, summer, and fall during the day. Long-lasting with moderate sillage.
From the first second to the very end, Itasca screams class and masculinity with a retro style. No feminine notes or sweet florals; it’s all classic chords radiating testosterone, very much in the vintage masculine vein. Vetiver takes the lead with rich citrus, potent aromatic notes, woods, Iso E, and a sweet balsamic touch reminiscent of Vertofix. It doesn’t get boring: it’s complex, with fine layers and a masterful, high-quality structure. It deserves its place among the great masculine classics (even if it’s from 2010). As it dries down, I notice a delicious tobacco note. If you’re looking for something fascinating and classic, like pre-reformulation Guerlain Vetiver, don’t think twice, just try it. It’s unique. Well done by Lucien Ferrero. Rating: 8.
