I’m a 28 yrs man and I wear this perfume since.. about 10 years ago. was my first perfume.
I think I’m kinda into citrus. I had some other good perfumes but this comforts me most, and so versatile. it’s not a best perfume I have but like many other citrus based perfume it suits in most situation, style, weather and things.
oh except I go around and trying to petting some street cat. cats hate this. don’t know why.
I can say this feels feminine, but not like really feminine like someone smell this scent on boy/man and think ‘oh that’s gotta be his girlfriend’s perfume’. more like ‘oh. he’s kinda gay’ kinda perfume. doesn’t matter to me. I don’t look like a masculine anyway and I never tried it.
and I don’t think any ‘bro’s out there will try this so no problem.
a reliable perfume. cheap. not too unique. nice to have one.

Agrumi di Sicilia is a staple in my wardrobe. I have been using it for years and I have repurchased it every time I finished a bottle.
The images it conjures up in my head are as follow:
Somewhere in Tuscany or in the south of France, a beautiful lady effortlessly stylish and chic is going to the outdoor market in the village. It is early in the morning but the sun is already heating up the atmosphere and people are wandering the narrow cobblestone streets just relaxing and feeling joyful.
Yes, that is how I feel when I wear this fragrance, JOYFUL!!!!!
Agrumi Di Sicilia, for me is part of a lifestyle rather than just wearing perfume. It doesn’t require you to think about anything. It is fresh, clean, and uncomplicated. You just know that when you apply this fragrance in the morning after your shower, you just get on with your day. Whether you are exploring the city or you are lucky enough to live in such village.
The opening of Agrumi Di Sicilia, on my skin, is all about the bitter orange and the tangerine. It is of course citrusy, fresh and a little bit spicy. It calms down quite quickly and then the orange blossom and Jasmin join in bringing along with them softness and a little sweetness to the composition. In the dry down the musk comes out but it is very soft and by this point I notice a slight powdery feel to this fragrance.
I enjoy this fragrance very much. It is clean, it is soft, it is light. There is no sillage but for me, this is perfectly done because I see it as an addition to your higiene routine throughout summer time.

Despite Ms. Patricia Weiser’s comments on how this is a scent only for the madames and girls of the world, this scent can quite EASILY worn by men. In fact, it holds quite a lot in common with 4711, Neroli Portefino and other pitosporum and bitter orange fragrances. Fragrances designed for either gender, not designated for one. This fragrance can be worn quite easily by men, regardless of how women feel about smelling this on their husbands. This fragrance has the capability to be masculine or feminine, depending on who wears it. Because, lets face it, 9 out of 10 fragrances can be called as such if the public doesn’t know what you’re wearing. No 5, Opium or Poison anyone?
Anyway, this fragrance opens in a superbly realistic citrusy way with bitter orange and perhaps a bit of neroli and orange blossom shinning through. It stays that way for a while before the true aspects of Neroli Portifino and 4711 shine through. Holding more than half of its notes in common with the aforementioned scents, it’s no shock that they would remind of both. Once it goes into its second stage, the floral musk one, it gets ever more beautiful and can remind one of one of those olden day soliflores that everyone waxes lyrical about (not without reason, of course) and then it dries down to a soft musk and a slightly noticeable sandalwood. There’s a soft spiciness wafting in and out during this entire affair, perhaps pink or green pepper, that creates a little bit of a dusty sensation when inhaled for a little bit. Makes me sneeze, but I guess that’s what I get for sniffing too attentively. One of my favourite citruses, and perhaps the only one I’d use regularly. Quite an exquisite scent for the price range, and I’d perhaps pay up to… maybe $120. (When you look at the Allegorias and some of the other 100mL scents you can buy for under AUD$120 rrp, this is pretty shinning)

This is a very light, breezy, citrusy summer scent. Simple, but oh so European – something you’d find in the little corner pharmacia in Venice and popped in with your shopping as a little treat. The bright orange and tangerine leap from the bottle and settle quickly into a lovely mix of citrus, soft white florals and something a little sexy – a quiet whisper of musk.
It’s not harsh or in your face, you won’t leave a heavily fragranced trail in your wake. But for $20, you will feel fresh, clean and ready for a bright summer day. I’m so happy I stumbled upon this – there’s something so decadent about a using a European full body spray and this one’s a winner.
The citrus is realistic and maintains it’s integrity – no cat pee here. The florals are pretty and well balanced, and the musk adds just a touch of sexy. This is marketed as unisex, and it can absolutely be worn by a man, but I find it feminine and beautiful and I’m sure that I’ll go through a couple of bottles of this by the end of summer.

I found this fragrance quite soapy on my skin. Reminds me of those beautiful soaps from Italy with the fancy packaging. I do like this but wish it lasted longer

Straight from the bottle this is delicious. Doesn’t last though. It is great for a pick-me up on a grey afternoon. I have been layering this with my Chanel No.5 to freshen up throughout the day. Does this crime carry a terrible sentence?

AdS starts out as a basic citrus. This recedes into a very feminine floral powder mix. Initially, I agreed with Patricia in terms of wearability. It just seemed too feminine for me to wear consistently. I thought it was nice, but I didn’t really think I could pull this one off. Since I couldn’t find anyone to trade this with I just decided to wear it at night at home. To me, the top notes were fine. It’s what I would consider “basically” unisex, though I think it leans feminine. It’s fairly unoriginal – not in a bad way. It’s just that citruses’ are a dime a dozen. Orange is basically the opening note. And it just fades so much from there. I also noticed some musk with some very light jasmine. The middle notes are just very light overall.
After wearing almost the whole bottle, I’m starting to think a man can wear this. But, it’s not something I’d purchase again. It smells good right out of the bottle for a few minutes but all in all it’s just not the type of citrus I want to wear.

This is recommended for both men and women. Men, don’t try it. It’s very sweet and flowery. I love it on myself, but would not want to smell this on my husband. This is a lovely summery frgrance. I wish I could read all the Italian reviews.
