    A mild grapefruit with lavender, musc, sandalwood, amber, and a mild rancidity of jasmines. The tobacco & the incense stayed at the background with some traces of iris, & ylang ylang, and MAYBE a mild tiny vanilla.
    I don’t see this as gothic as much as i see it a mild creation of autumn human! with that sour jasmines and musky lavender. It is the safest of their collection so far, BUT, as i wrote it before and writing it again:
    These guys wants to create new things for the sake of difference ONLY rather than a thing that captures senses! i mean they are trying so hard to create a DIFFERENT fragrance & NOT a DIVINE one that makes the world mouth waters and strives to get. I feel in each of their creations that they tend to get away from anything usual or even any harmonic combinations of notes used even if this combination will make their creation SUPERBLY amazing just for the sake to say “We Are Different”! and even if their creation will turn to be unbalanced and none harmonic they tend to leave it that way and shockingly they release it! i don’t mean to go on a replication phase, but at least put things together that forms a balanced essence, something that describes the stories behind the form and the names of the fragrances quite well! I guess they are doing this because of their “what so called” controversy over the world wide fame “Chanel #5” (which i personally see as a flop)
    I just want so hard to love any of their fragrances but i just can’t, i won’t stop trying tho as i will re-sample “Italian Angel” again cause that in particular i see has a potential of love on a minor D. Moreover, maybe i am not used on certain combinations because of lack of more experience! i believe i didn’t sniff nothing yet and hungry for more.
    Eventually, I will give this fragrance more time, cause i just applied it few minutes back (since i begun writing this review) and i think it is developing quite well on my skin after it calmed down!

    The first impressions are not always the correct ones. Or when they are correct, they can not capture all aspects of a subject or person and thus lead to hasty conclusions. I realized that the quickly judgment of the work of Angelo Orazio Pregoni let myself take the exotic aesthetic and the provocations without realizing that they were only the surface of something more interesting, which is only revealed from the moment we accepted the challenge to let Angelo as a perfumer and artist takes us out of the comfort zone and make us to think about what is really happening. In this sense, it is worth visiting the Facebook page of Angelo and read the articles he published on fifi.ru site, which lead us to know a little more of his mind and his principles.
    I do not intend here in a nutshell be able to pass things that the perfumer want to Gothic Angel, which is the second messenger in his line of angelic theme; this is more an invitation to know it. With Italian Angel in mind, the first thing I find myself thinking here is about the things they have in common and in which they differ. In common you can see some basic notes, especially a creamy and gustatory aspect, the fact that they are both scents larger than life, the kind that seems to fill an arena with its vibrant aroma and full of detail. But the impression I have is that while Italian Angel is an excellent caricature and a baroque exploration Italian aromatic culture Gothic Angel seems, like the artist makes clear, to look at the past in the Gothic art movemen but without one caricatured representation. It’s like, with such move, Angelo explore the past aiming indeed an unknown future style and certainly longing for the divine as the very Gothic art.
    I see in Gothic Angel one aromatically structured formula that makes me think more about the architectural style of that period and its stained glass than the painting itself. I have the impression that we are facing something that certainly sees the divine and the light, which already differs from the dark caricature I imagined. I see the use of ambery materials and in a rough form serving as the arches of the olfactory structure that develops. And the aldehydes with incense function as the glass on which the other notes of the art is painted, creating the effect of an intense and magnificent light to me.
    The aspect from the past here makes me think, for some reason, the contrast between sensuality and temperance of Chanel No. 5, but played in a way that the structure becomes typically something of Angelo creations. There is to me a soapy appearance between the austere and luxurious, where aldehydes seem to raise the aroma of bitter herbs. There is a painted floral sensuality in vibrant hues and at the same time without a definite shape, but one you can feel her sensual, erotic and complex contour past the olfactory rays of light output, mixing the sacred aspect of incense. A powdery tone and between the iris and violets smell makes me again recall a similar dynamic that found in Chanel No. 5, which is repeated again at the base by the presence of a beautiful sacred and rich aroma of sandalwood. At this point the harmony allows you to realize once again the amber and dry materials of the opening, which bring the composition back to the present and future, and a creamy and vanilla scent that is very cozy.
    Gothic Angel is interesting in what seems to be a kind of dichotomy in his scent. While it has a larger than life aura and worthy of an arena of performance there is something in its scent that brings me a feeling that I associate to Gothicism: the protection. The combination of warm materials such as frankincense, sandalwood, vanilla and powdery touches create the feeling that I am involved and secure under its aroma (and wouldn’t this be one of the duties of an Angel?).

    Ahahaha! It seems strange that someone votes this fragrance, since, apart from me, no one has yet smelled it. Gothic Angel will be released only at the end of March!
