Description
The house of Tiziana Terenzi, known for its scented candles, presents its first Extrait de Parfum line in 2012. The line is inspired by fire with four different experiences of journey. “The hypnotic power and beauty of fire are always present in our lives, connecting us with great symbolic power to our emotions and to all of creation. The four new perfumes embody the four stages of a journey consumed by fire. In fire, every emotion, every image, every fragrance comes to life and exists almost independently from our thoughts. Our perfumes capture the indomitable spirit of our emotions. The creation of these perfume essences comes from the never-ending quest to depict and capture emotions. These perfumes embody the powerful Faustian desire to try to hold on to a beautiful moment, and the constant exploration of the “self and the non-self”. The fragrances are named XIX March, Ecstasy, Gold Rose Oudh and White Fire. The ones that have “black soul” are Gold Rose Oudh and White Fire and are labeled with leather label, while the ones with “white soul”, labeled with wood, are XIX March and Ecstasy.
XIX March is inspired by La Focarina di S. Giuseppe, the night on 18th march when traditionally a bong fire is build to burn up twigs and bushes winter leftover and welcome the spring. “The air is filled with intense smells: fresh and new, yet nevertheless ancient.”
Top notes: orange, green leaves, mint, nettle. Heart: lavender, cinnamon, clove buds, jasmine. Base: sandalwood, cedar, vetiver, musk, nutmeg, rosemary.
It is available as 100 ml Extrait de Parfum.
The nose behind this fragrance is Paolo Terenzi.

Truly unisex, a mix of aromatic greens, herbs and creamy sandalwood. It’s crisp and clean, and the scent stays close. Completely office safe, nothing difficult or unnatural about this composition. Total respect for the house of Terenzi!

An energizing, masculine sandalwood and cedar based fragrance, this lovely composition mixes the woody notes with some interesting green and spice notes such as green leaves, mint, nettle, lavender, cinnamon, clove buds, jasmine, vetiver, musk, nutmeg, and rosemary with winning results. The overall feel is a bright, cheery, waft of spring air as one takes a leisurely stroll in a forested area. Very elegantly blended and a safe pleasing scent with moderate sillage and projection. Easily unisex although leaning a bit on the masculine side. This is one that needs to be discovered!

Gorgeous smell. If it had a better performance it would be a masterpiece.

I got a really good deal on this so I pulled the trigger and so glad that I did. Just to mention that this was a blind buy for me. Back to the juice. I really like this one alot. I was looking for a green fragrance that didn’t come across to bitter and this is the one. Really nice and natural smelling. I wonder why this house doesn’t get much recognition. They are pretty reasonably priced given it’s an extrait de parfum. I mean for about same price as Nassomato with three times the juice, you can’t go wrong. Highly recommended for something very unique that satisfies your search for a natural green effect.

It’s fresh and clean upon opening. There are crisp greens and sour citruses. Very subtle florals come and go, as though an afterthought, and are not central to the composition. Its lush and juicy, and feels like a sunny spring day, after a cleansing and revitalizing rain. The crispness nearly stings my nose, but it is not at all offensive. The lavender presents beautifully, in a more green than floral manner. The mint is also tastefully represented; its fresh, well blended, and not overt. It brings images of a snappy green pepper or a fresh salad to mind. Unisex, pleasant. Cheerful, light, yet calm.

A very nice fresh aromatic herb fragrance. The lavender and mint are very evident. This is definitely a unisex fragrance. The lavender is tamed by mint and green notes. I like the thought of stinging nettle in here. The wood notes combine with these to create a nice essentially green fragrance. There is nothing harsh here but softly aromatic. I think Wild Hedgerow would have been a good name for it. Very pleasant.

This is an amazing scent. The only problem I have,and I hope I don’t ruin this for anyone after saying this, is that I detect a certain note in this that smells like a diaper rash cream I’ll never forget that smell. It starts to go away on the dry down, but every since my memory reminded me of that, I can’t not smell it now! Grrrr I want to love this but I’m a little on the fence right now

XIX March is an absolutely phenomenal lavender-based perfume. I love it because lavender is certainly the focus and is present throughout almost the entire 12+ hours it lasts on my skin, but it also isn’t necessarily obvious, as there are other notes that compliment the lavender so perfectly. This is not a lavender soliflore, but a complex lavender-based fragrance.
It begins as a bright, fresh, herbal and citrus perfume. I detect lavender, mint, and lemon. While that was lovely start, it soon changes completely. The freshness wears away, and suddenly the lavender takes on a darker personality as it combines with woody cloves and fragrant nutmeg. Nutmeg is one of my favorite notes, and it is hard to find a perfume that showcases it well, but it is natural and abundant in XIX March. All of these herbs and spices play together so beautifully.
So the first 20 minutes is herbal, but the next 12 hours are a darker scent that skillfully straddles the line between masculine and feminine. In the base there is a hint of sensual musk that makes the perfume just a little bit creamy. Indeed at times it smells like Nivea lotion mixed with herbs and spices, but I love that about it. I also think I can smell rosemary here and there, but I am never completely certain.
I thought Ecstacy from this house was my favorite, but XIX March is the one I actually bought.

An amazing herbal brew that unfortunately fades very quickly….. The initial green attack fades away after only half an hour…but what an amazing 30 minutes….;-)

Outstanding simple fragrance.
Fresh, herbal and comfortable in an incredible way, opens herbal green, but the herbal touch is in the right and pretty cool so far, it appears something vegetable and mint next to what appears to further strengthen the freshness.
Later comes a lavender as that of a very comfortable touch and keeps clean, delicate as a feather, giving a velvety aspect in all of this, there is a floral touch together as white cotton.
Going to the base, vetiver giving a touch almost earthy woody as it blends perfectly with the herbal aspect and built an extremely comfortable chord, unique sense of freshness and
