“Fiore di Riso” is such a well crafted feminine floral perfume. Yes, it’s not special and groundbreaking, but it’s so elegant and non offensive, that I instantly liked it.
Opening with a mixture of light, sweet citruses and indolic, a bit green jasmine “Fiore di Riso” got me hooked from the first sniff. It evolves around tonka bean making this very sweet and I’d say even warm, even though the most prominent vibe is “fresh”. The drydown brings a subtle jasmine scent on a warm vanilla/tonka base.
Feminine and pretty.
Even though silage was excellent, longevity was slightly dissapointing, around 4 hours on my skin.

I sprayed it on a few times in a shop, and every time I loved it..I remember it starting off with a fresh blast of apple-like smell and then settling down to a caramel-suede-like skin scent..
Now that I own a bottle i feel like I understand it so much better!
The initial freshness was orange flower, mandarin and bergamot (the fake apple I used to catch), and the dry down is a mix of jasmin and benzoin with just a hint of vanilla..I never noticed jasmin before!
Usually not a fan of jasmin, i find this perfume wonderful – it is very well made, very wearable and very close to skin..I think it has a potential of becoming ones signature 🙂
By the way, on their website the following notes are listed:
top notes: White flower accord
middle notes: davana (could use some help with this), ginger, marigold
Base notes: oakmoss, sandalwood

If there is no orange blossom in Farmacia SS Annuziata Fiore de Riso, then my nose must be out of joint today! No matter, there is no disputing that glistening white flowers are in abundance. Very feminine, very perfumey, thanks to the notable presence of benzoin. The composition is sweet, so this is nothing like the night-blooming jasmine soliflores. Nor is there too much overlap with Thierry Mugler Alien, one of the more famous jasmine perfumes today. Far from being an alien, lab-constructed perfume, Fiore de Riso feels and smells as though it came from the golden age of perfumery, pre-Y2K, back when the design houses consistently put out worthy perfumes in a steady and dependable stream (not true today…).
Fiore de Riso smells lovely and luxurious, like white petals sprinkled with vanilla sugar and then dipped in gold.
Thank you, pitbullfriend, for affording me the opportunity to test this enticing elixir! I am happy to have had the chance to test a perfume from a house established in 1561–three hundred years before Creed and two hundred before Guerlain!!!!

Creamy, warm, sugared lemon. A LOT pretty, a little sexy. But in no way juvenile or overly foody. I absolutely love this one. And while I do wish it had a bit more projection, it definitely feels very much a part of me when I wear it.

I got this sample hoping it would be a ‘poor man’s’ version of Bois D’armenie ($160 for 100 ml vs $230 for 75 ml). I love a strong benzoin scent, and for those who are knew to it this is one of the ‘powdered’ notes (the other noteworthy one being iris)
What Riso does right is bring in vanilla, similar to Bois D’Armenie and Diptyque’s Eau Duelle. In all three it is the rich, creamy vanilla and warm, polished benzoin that shine, making it wear like your favorte fall sweater.
The opening of Riso hints at citrus, but it is too weak to make much of a splash. This scent goes the distance, at least all day on me, and silage is moderate. Most certainly a fall scent, and one could easily mistake it for a showcase on amber. Caron’s Parfum Sacre calls to mind, less the spicy edge.
This gets thumbs up from me.

You can smell very powdery white flowers at the beginning, gardenia the most. Im not a white floral fan really but this is ok so far, not too overbearing. It is a strong scent though so far. After about 10 minutes out comes a lovely tart-ish jasmine (not cloying or indolic) and it takes alot for me to say that as I usually hate jasmine, mixed with some tonka and soft benzoin. MMmmm this is lovely. It kind of has a white-ish feel to it, but I don’t rally understand the name (translation: flower of rice). I thought it would be a gourmand, but it’s not really, apart from the tonka but overall its a lovely scent, quite original too.
