Description
The creation contained in this Extrait de Parfum was born from a journey of exploration, which the mind accomplishes through memories that come together in the childish dream of a fairy country. The chiaroscuro of memory becomes, with this nectar, an explosion of colors on the screen of imagination, access to the glare of the dream. A scent that you do not expect, and which surprises you from the first moment. poetry nectar ready to kidnap you, to make you fly on the wings of the Ippogrifo among rainbows of wonder that only creativity can render. A citrus bouquet lying on a bed of rose petals, supported by the effervescence of oxygen. Sweet and deep counterpoints of lovable fruit are chasing each other, expertly held up by precious woods and by the warm embrace of vanilla, amber and musk.
Saiph was launched in 2017.

I received this gorgeous bottle for my birthdays. I have to say it is definitely unique but the longevity is just ok. There is anything i could compare the smell to.

Fizzy patchouli.
Woody yet fuzzy patchouli. It has musk, dews, woody citrus, patchouli, ozonic notes, cedar, cedar.
Nice.
GonZo – :
Interesting but this given description seems overwrought compared to the real thing.
A familiar heavy musk and vanilla with green ozonic notes feels nostalgic somehow.
I can’t stand Iris usually and I can’t detect it at all in this composition so Iris lovers may be let down. The passionfruit comes through a little while after application but takes on an unexpected banana peel note that somehow still works.
It’s comforting and calming, great choice for an evening in with a book but this is not a showstopper or attention getter. Finely done but ultimately still feels phoned in compared to many Terenzi compositions.
Scent: 5/10 it’s nice but ultimately uninspiring for me. It is not offensive in any way but it will get lost and ultimately forgotten if I had it in my collection. Objectively it is nice just not interesting.
Projection: 4/10 at rest, if you have it on your neck or in your hair, you will have no trouble smelling it for a while but after two hours, I couldn’t get anything unless I was point blank.
Sillage: 3/10 for the first hour then I couldn’t notice it at all and didn’t notice anyone else become aware of it.
Longevity: 3/10 sorry Terenzi, I love you gals and guys but this one falls way short of some of your powerhouses. Thats fine if thats all you want and short-lived pretty scents have their place, but you have spoiled me with Laudano Nero (please never change it) and Ecstasy and Orion which performe like monsters. By comparison I can’t justify this brief longevity.
Would I buy a bottle: No. not because it’s bad or smells too mich like something else, it just isn’t enough or a projection or longevity or memorable scent enough to buy it.
