I tried it today and it’s a marvel. It doesn’t just smell citrusy; on the skin, it becomes something animal. It will definitely be my next purchase, highly recommended, bravo!
@davidmerinom12 David, either you haven’t smelled Risvelium or you haven’t smelled Seminalis. They are more alike than a chicken and a squid.
Starts with an unexpected citrus explosion of pineapple and tangerine, but soon darkens to become too animalistic for my taste, as if the initial fruit rots and transforms into bergamot.
It opens with strong, almost candy-like lemon and grapefruit. Then the lemon blends with something fresh, damp, and earthy, like muddy soil; some say it smells like cannabis and they’re right, there’s a hint of it. I also detect a smoky touch, but overall it’s a citrus-earthy (damp) fragrance, like a wild citrus.
Risvelium is versatile and combines nuances of other fragrances from the house, but with its own personality. It has a Bergamask-type citrus note with a tropical plus, musk and amber à la Brutus, a smoky dry-down à la Terroni, and a green touch à la Viride, perhaps with a hint of Megamare algae, without falling into aquatic territory. It’s a tropical note on the opening, like pulp, that turns into a citrusy skin scent and shifts to green and dark tones, resembling a Carolina Herrera 212. If you haven’t tried Orto Parisi, start here; it’s not complicated or challenging. Don’t expect a typical musky citrus; Gualtieri plays with the unexpected. It’s a tropical citrus that turns into a green jungle without losing acidity. Imagine going from a tropical market to exploring the surrounding jungle. I wouldn’t recommend it if you don’t like subtle green notes. Don’t expect a fruity profile like Xerjoff, Creed, or Lorenzo Pazzaglia. For those seeking greenery, it’s a delight. Mature profile, unisex but leaning masculine. Versatile for all year-round except cold winter or excessive heat, and for all occasions if you control the applications (not for intense sports). I wore it to work and it was liked. Performance and projection are perfect: lasts 9 hours on skin with two applications. Projects well for the first hour at over a meter, then settles closer to the skin but remains pleasant. As always, test on skin before buying niche; your skin is the best judge.
Smells like freshly cut grass, exactly. Strong scent, though not as much as others from the brand. As it dries down, it becomes lighter and more pleasant. It’s a strange scent; I wouldn’t say it smells bad, just weird. I don’t see it for getting compliments, but rather for turning heads. Longevity seems good, though I haven’t tested it properly yet, and I can’t comment on the trail and projection.
The first thirty minutes are brutal: lemon, lime peel, and fresh herbs. Then that seminalis note creeps in from below, turning milky and soapy, though less raw than the original. In my opinion, it adds no novelty if the perfume lasts 7-8 hours and only stands out in the first half-hour.
Once again, the pleasure of commenting on Gualtieri. Thanks Amanece: sun, humidity, and heat. Imagine looking out the balcony of your room; the scent of freshly squeezed grapefruit, passion fruit, and pineapple reaches you. Then that freshness of freshly watered and fertilized garden hedges mixes with the juice. At the same time, you feel gusts of breeze carrying scents of leaf litter and incinerated fruit peels over the wet mulch two streets away. That’s Risvelium. Longevity, projection, and sillage in the Gualtieri style… nuclear. No compliments, but reactions everywhere. Again, he’s done it. The nose and genius of Alessandro.
Risvelium is versatile and gathers nuances from the house with its own personality. A touch of Bergamask citrus with a tropical plus, musk and amber à la Brutoni, a smoky touch à la Terroni, and a green note à la Viride with a hint of Megamare seaweed, without going aquatic. It’s a tropical note like pulp that transitions to a citrusy skin scent before turning into dark greens, similar to a Carolina Herrera 212. If you haven’t tried Orto Parisi, start here; it’s not as challenging. Don’t expect a typical citrus-musk; Gualtieri plays the unexpected card. It’s a tropical citrus that turns into jungle green without losing acidity. Imagine moving from a tropical market to the surrounding jungle. I wouldn’t recommend it if you don’t like understated greens. Don’t even dream of a fruity style like Xerjoff or Creed. For those seeking greenery, it’s a treat. Mature profile, unisex but leaning masculine. Versatile all year except for cold winters or excessive heat, and for occasions controlling applications (not for sports). I wore it to work and it was a hit. Performance and projection are perfect. Lasts 9 hours with two sprays.

Your skin is the best judge.
Smells like freshly cut grass, period. It’s a strong scent, though not as much as others from the brand. In the dry-down, it becomes lighter and more pleasant. It’s a strange scent; I wouldn’t say it smells bad, just weird; I don’t see it for getting compliments but definitely for drawing attention. Longevity seems good, though I haven’t tested it thoroughly yet, and I can’t comment on sillage and projection.
Gualtieri sitting in his old chair, biting a pencil, with a cigar. Suddenly he looks at the cleaning lady, the only one left in his workshop at night, breaks the silence, and asks: ‘What was the name of that famous perfume that sold so much?’ He takes a drag, exhales the smoke, and replies: ‘Aventus, right?’
Grapefruit all over the face, that’s Risvelium. But not just that, it quickly becomes denser. A blend of all its siblings to finish with the smoky touch of Terroni. Nuclear power and sillage, though not at the level of Megamare. I’d say it’s better for spring and cold autumns, because in summer it can be overwhelming since it’s citrusy, musky, ambered, earthy, and smoky. I don’t see it as very versatile. The grapefruit holds up the entire life of the perfume like a champion. Another great work by the niche’s enfant terrible who always leaves us speechless.
A bittersweet experience. At first, I hated the smell, just freshly cut grass; I couldn’t see myself wearing it. I kept it thinking about selling it, but when I smelled it again, I was surprised: finally noticed the pineapple, and the scent was more pleasant, though it still had that grassy base. Now it’s more wearable and I’m not selling it. It’s extremely citrusy and although it’s unisex, I notice it leans more masculine. Maybe it won’t get many compliments, but it definitely grabs attention. Perfume for the brave, for those who don’t fear the opinions of others.
No disrespect intended, but here’s my personal take. Orto Parisi confuses transgressive with grotesque. Their fragrances seem like collages of synthetic molecules that impose sensations through suggestion rather than real pleasure. Risvelium smells like a failed attempt to synthetically recreate freshly cut grass with wet earth, bitter and coarse, mixed with herbs and all wrapped in a laboratory scent. That ‘originality’ is just a pose; there’s a disconnect between artistic intent and actual enjoyment. Plus, that extreme longevity others admire is torture for me: an abrasive, vulgar, and dirty trail that invades everything. Orto Parisi seems like an exercise in olfactory narcissism. It’s like carrying a Bluetooth speaker playing trap music on the subway; people could use headphones, but they prefer everyone to hear what they want, even if you don’t like it. Every nose is a world, but try before you decide.
To be brutally honest without intending offense: Orto Parisi seems to confuse transgressive with grotesque. Their fragrances feel less like art and more like a collage of synthetic molecules trying to force sensations that only some accept through suggestion. Risvelium smells like a failed attempt to synthetically recreate freshly cut grass with wet earth—bitter and rough—mixed with oregano, thyme, and tomato plants, all wrapped in that chemical factory smell you always get. The originality they praise so much feels more like a pose than substance; there’s a total disconnect between the artistic intent and the actual pleasure of wearing it. On top of that, the longevity they admire turns into a persistent torture: an abrasive, vulgar, and dirty trail that contaminates everything in its path and invades your personal space. Ultimately, Orto Parisi feels like an exercise in olfactory narcissism. As I mentioned in another review, it’s like having a Bluetooth speaker playing trap music on the subway: people could wear headphones, but they don’t because they want you to listen to what they’re listening to, even if you don’t like it. That’s what happens with many fragrances like this. But as always, every nose is a different world and everyone lives their experience their own way, so just try it and decide for yourself 😉
Piercing citrus opening, between grapefruit and bergamot. Then blackberry appears, and the ‘dirty’ musk wraps everything at the end. Longevity worthy of Gualtieri: huge. High projection. P.S.: Creed Aventus (in its best years).
The citrus lasts 0.0000001 seconds. Then it becomes dark and very heavy. I don’t recommend it, though, it lasts on the skin for a lifetime and a bit more. Don’t buy it blindly.
Very subjective. It can seem simple or complex. You can intellectualize it or not. Risvelium has a lot of personality; it’s rough and casual. Citrusy tropical opening, spectacular and long-lasting; afterwards, the herbal part reminds of dry oak forest, wheat fields before harvest: it literally smells of vegetation beaten by the sun. I perceive a fizzy bitterness that suggests tonic, not gin and tonic, just tonic. Very pleasant musky drydown. After using it for about fifteen days (the level stays the same), I think a reasonable use is 3 sprays. It has a strident first phase, but when it dries, it softens. If I compare it with other perfumes I use a lot, like Dior Eau Sauvage Parfum or Boss Triumph Elixir, I think they are better balanced; I say this because Risvelium has about 4 very strong hours, but after the fifth, it drops quite a bit (I’ve asked several times). It performs very well, but it doesn’t last effectively for 24 hours nor does it work with just one spray. The ‘wild vegetation’ narrative is original and appropriate; I like that it’s different. And I like that it’s polarizing; I appreciate noticing some negativity sometimes. I appreciate having something like this, something that needs many uses to understand.
Totally disappointed by the hype. Maybe that’s the only thing. For me, it’s a grapefruit with camphor at the start that gives way to insignificant changes during its extremely long life. At least I tested it in time.
Gualtieri perfumes that generate massive hype in the niche world. The mystery of hidden notes and their exaggerated campaigns, combined with the brand’s eccentricity, only fuel doubt: is he a genius with abusive dosing, or just very lucky? After his latest launches, I think they’re selling us smoke rather than quality. Exotic concepts that end up being pretentious, simple, and even vulgar fragrances. No real evolution; they always use the same base with minimal changes to the top and a fast dry-down. This smells like Nudiflorum leather but with an excessive use of Iso Butyl Quinoline, making it harsh, piercing, and annoying. A touch of synthetic grapefruit and blackberry gives a brief, fruity citrus opening without using natural citrus. It’s like taking the base of Nudiflorum, removing the jasmine, and adding citrus and fruits. Gualtieri’s creativity has become more vague lately, always delivering the same thing. If you’re looking for something introspective or supernatural, you’ll find a rough, routine perfume. Nothing special. Cheers.
A unique scent; for me, it’s like a ‘passion fruit foot’. Unfortunately, this perfume doesn’t perform as well on my skin.
Alessandro Gualtieri’s fragrances are always a delicate topic: for some, they are masterpieces; for others, synthetic and bad-taste attacks. The truth is probably somewhere in the middle. To be honest: I love Alessandro’s products, since Black Afgano was my gateway. So, even if it seems biased, I’ll try to be objective. The inspiration is an ayahuasca ritual in Peru, a near-death experience. Or, in other words: you vomit, defecate, and tremble. That explains the name, since ‘Risveglio’ means ‘awakening’. Once the ritual is complete, you feel ‘reborn’, ‘awake’, or ‘enlightened’. It provides a different perspective on the world: it’s the bridge, the gateway from the physical world to the metaphysical. It sounds like Cuarto Milenio, but everyone can think what they want. But what does Risvelium smell like? The interesting part is the emotion it conveys. It’s inspired by spiritual rituals and transmits a weird vibe, as if you were at a ceremony. It’s not sweet or easy to digest at first impact. It’s intense, complex, and totally genderless. It’s the kind of scent that forces you to stop and feel how it acts on your skin. If you’ve been bored by perfumes lately, this will wake up your attention. Seriously: Risvelium is not just a fragrance, it’s an awakening. Or at least, you’ll enjoy trying to decipher it. Surprisingly citrusy immediately. Anyone who, like me, expects an acidic, green, and herbal blend with artemisia, tea tree, neroli, camphor, or similar, will feel out of place. But first things first: the opening is citrusy; the grapefruit definitely plays a major role, but thanks to a slight pepper note, it develops more like a fizzy sensor on the skin. There’s also something wet and earthy; I think the mix of fermented citrus and wet earth creates this ‘beetroot’ note. There’s also a slight vetiver smoke, similar to Encre Noire Edt, but less present, more subtle, and not as dry as the Lalique version. The base is, then, although more muted than usual, the typical one found in many Orto Parisi creations: the oud (artificial), or rather, dark, woody notes with a slightly fecal touch and an animal note of ‘urine’ and ‘sweat’. But if you’re thinking of a fragrance with an oud base and an animal touch, you’re in the wrong place. The notes are barely perceptible, if they are, and it’s the typical Orto Parisi DNA. So, what is Risvelium? A Bergamask 2.0? A Terre d’Hermès style with steroids and dirty hands? Yes and no. The parallels with other Orto Parisi are obvious, and Bergamask is also a citrusy and dirty fragrance, but: Bergamask is significantly more animal due to the musk, though less earthy. A slight comparison with Terre d’Hermès can give an idea, although the French perfume is much cleaner, more defined, and elegant. One was made by an architect, the other a hippie traveling the world with a backpack and a guitar. In short, despite all the comparisons, Risvelium is a unique fragrance, even within the Orto Parisi universe. And surprisingly wearable, if you have a certain olfactory journey and an open mind.
A unique scent; for me, it’s like a ‘passion fruit foot’. Unfortunately, this perfume doesn’t perform well on my skin.
The raw instinct of Gualtieri. Risvelium is not a perfume, it’s a manifesto. A contained animal roar in 50 ml. It is, probably, one of the crudest and most visceral compositions within the already transgressive catalog of Orto Parisi. If anyone still expected sweetness, classic beauty, or balance in this house, here Gualtieri finally shatters all mirrors. This was not built to please. It was built to confront. Awakening as a physical act: ‘Risvelium’ is an adapted form of the Italian ‘risveglio’, made to sound more archaic, visceral, or primitive, as is usual in Orto Parisi. It’s not classical Latin, but Risvelium sounds latinized, giving it a ritual, almost alchemical tone. Therefore, from its very name, this perfume positions itself as a call to the senses. But not a gentle awakening, rather a sudden, physical, almost violent one. Like opening your eyes after a nightmare. Like being born without anesthesia. It’s a ‘body awakening’. Opening: the raw blow. The moment you apply it, you perceive an abrasive and sharp accord of bitter, earthy, organic, and metallic grapefruit. No flowers, no fruits, no citrus. There is skin. Body. Living matter. Something clearly animal is detected (though not fecal), a mix of clean sweat, hair, raw leather, and remnants of wet green, as if someone had ripped a bush with bare hands. The sensation is like smelling the back of someone who just came out of a run through the forest. A mix of pheromones and earth. Heart: the vegetal, the mineral, the human. As the composition evolves, greener, bitter, and resinous notes appear, but never softening the general impression. If there is anything floral, it is dehydrated, withered, almost fossilized. The perfume remains dry, austere, with a musky and earthy base. The texture of the fragrance is rough, arid, and yet sensual. There is no sweetness or concessions to gourmand. One can intuit a certain inspiration from the world of hair, sweat, and wet skin, as happens in Stercus or Brutus, but Risvelium is less scatological, more physical. It feels like a self-portrait, like smelling your own chest after a fight session. Base: silent intensity, hot shadow. When it settles (and that can take hours), it leaves a warm, mineral trail of dry salt on the skin. Something similar to the smell of a stone that has been in the sun for a long time. At that height, Risvelium has integrated with you. You no longer perceive it as a perfume, but as part of the body. Performance: total identity. One of its most impactful points is the performance. This perfume doesn’t just project; it invades. Three sprays can dominate the environment for 12 hours. The trail is not annoying, but firm and intense, like a constant breath. It’s one of those perfumes that doesn’t easily abandon skin or memory. When to use it? It’s not for everyone. It’s not for every moment. Risvelium is a perfume of reflection, of intimate territory. For lovers of perfumes that tell a dark, bodily, authentic story. It’s more of an experience than a daily fragrance. It’s not for the office. It’s not to be liked. It’s to be. And to wake up something that, probably, you had forgotten you had inside. Risvelium is the perfume that doesn’t perfume, but inhabits. It is the olfactory made flesh. A deeply human, uncomfortable creation, and therefore, deeply necessary.
I bought it due to the hype. Honestly, I like it, but in moderation. What stands out, without a doubt, is its brutal longevity: it lasts hours without any problem. Personally, what I enjoy most is the drydown, especially after 2 or 3 hours. It’s there where it really shines. In that final phase, it has an aura that reminds me a lot of Erba Pura, with that clean, fruity, and enveloping touch.
I love the opening; it’s a delicious, ultra-concentrated grapefruit, but the drydown is somewhat spicy, similar to Megamare.
Gualtieri has us used to a certain olfactory profile, that’s a fact. Certainly, this fragrance has the DNA of Gualtieri and the other Orto Parisi scents, but why should that be bad? Let me start by saying I own Terroni, Megamare, Cuoium, and Bergamask, and the truth is, it doesn’t feel redundant to have this Risvelium in any case. Since this is the sharpest, brightest, and most ‘commercial’ citrus in the entire Orto Parisi line, to my perception, it screams cannabis, rhubarb, and ambroxan. There are surely many more things, but those are the most noticeable. And its tremendous longevity and projection, easily over 12 hours and projecting 4 feet without issue. Honestly, it seems like one of the best launches.

Sincerely, it seems like one of the best launches.
I don’t care, it’s a proposal that adds nothing new. It’s obvious, and to be honest, it lacks depth. It’s the typical Orto Parisi ambroxan overload. Starts with a full-on grapefruit blast, no brakes. I was scared it would stay like that, but soon it sweetens with a noticeable pineapple. Then it becomes a mix of ambroxan and sweetness, drying out with a smoky, musky touch. The drydown is pleasant; I like how it smells. But I’m not into these aromas anymore; it would tire me out. It leaves a nice trail, almost I’d prefer it on someone else. It’s curious how OP used to dazzle me and now it’s harder. I don’t see a defined use; I see it as cheerful and playful for hot days. Lasts forever and it shows. I liked trying it, but I wouldn’t buy it.
It’s spectacular and the easiest to wear alongside Bergamask. It’s an ultra-concentrated grapefruit that doesn’t fade; after a short while, it mutes a soft pineapple note, nothing like Aventus (they didn’t invent the pineapple scent, and not all perfumes with this note are alike). It finishes a bit darker with touches between amber and musk, I can’t distinguish them well. Longevity and projection are brutal, just like everything Gualtieri does.
