Description
Gattinoni Neo perfume par (Neo Man and Neo Woman)was introduced in 2004. Both perfumes are extremely sensual, provocative and aggressive. The name comes from the rubber material “neoprene”, which is used by the fashion house Gattinoni in its prêt-à-porter shows. Female bottle is bright red symbolizing the passion, while men’s is black, representing the mystery. The bottles are designed like a metal capsule.
Neo Woman is a fragrance of the East, characterized by orange and citruses at the top on the spicy – fruity heart: plum, cinnamon, vanilla and tonka. The base is an oriental – wood with notes of amber, cedar, sandalwood, guaiac wood and patchouli.
It is available as 50 ml Eau de Toilette and a 100 ml Eau de Parfum.
rolob – :
A wonderful rich, thick patchouli with a nice dollop of cinnamon.Smooth flowing,warm and spicy. Very sensuous stuff. Niche quality/vibe.
I believe this has been discontinued.
These italian noses and smaller italian perfume manufacturers outshine tenfold what the “big boys” churn out these days.
A MUST TRY.
AdarnedShen – :
I have bought this after hunting for it for months and have to admit it surprised me.
All the heavy woody notes and spices should mean this is quite a heavy one.
But to me it isn’t. The most distinct notes are tonka, almonds (not seen in the notes but I smell them distinctly – or it is the effect of plum and tonka).
Vanilla and cinnamon are humming about while the woods are mainly guiac, amber and sandalwood, but the main player is the middle of vanilla and tonka. It is quite in line with Hypnotic Poison, Jacomo Art Collection #02 and another tonka/almond-scent whose name I can’t remember right now…
I wanted something to either replace Givenchy Organza Indecence OR Mystery by Naomi Campbell: with these two this scent has nothing in common though. The tonka is too much for me.
Though this is no sugar sweet, it has a certain dryness of sweet – like “cantuccini”…
