My least favorite from the Palladiano line. Pepper followed by strong bitter Mint…… it smells like old baking soda toothpaste. I do not like this.

It is interesting to follow the trajectory of the perfumer Daniela Andrier. Over the years and mainly with her work in the Prada perfumery line Daniela went from a mere commercial perfumer to a queen of chic minimalism and a kind of favorite of Italian brands, with one of its customers being the leather articles brand Bottega Venetta.
For its exclusive line that pays homage to the Italian gardens Bottega commissioned Daniela two members, one of them being Parco Palladiano III. This time the inspiration is in the pear trees and a concept of capturing the aroma of the tree in the moment of the autumn, with the pears in the ripe moment, ready to fall from the tree to the grass. It is certainly an interesting concept, distinct within the basics that is usually worked within exclusive collections, but that leaves something to be desired.
I think what is missing here is precisely the richness of the details, which is perhaps a weakness of the chic minimalism that Daniela has become known or a matter of how the client requested the creation of the fragrance. Structurally, what I have here is a woody mineral with spicy dry outlines, something that is not too far from a Marc Jacobs Bang (with less pepper) or a Poivre Samarcande (with less minerals). The succulence of the pear does not become evident, I believe, by mixing with the green contours of the composition. The mint is a distinct touch, used outside its common place of the toothpaste aroma and referring to the scent of the sap of the leaves that are released when they are crushed. A transparent floral scent would fit perfectly here as it seems to lack a transition from tne opening to the base. It could have been used a lily of the valley accord perhaps since it is widely used along with the pear note, which could have helped to underscore it. There is a lack of detail and a certain succulence of the pear to match the proposed theme.

A tenacious peppery, bitter aromatic-green, and woody scent on the masculine side of unisex. I also get an unsweetened fruit-water note from it, almost like the juice that might come from a watermelon rind, but it doesn’t smell like melon. I can’t quite place it. I thought I could detect the mint right after spraying, but it was quickly overwhelmed by the pepper and woody notes, and it never really smelled like fresh mint from the garden. This is an unusual scent that requires the right skin chemistry to wear it!

Extremely green and leafy, and woodsy…I find it more suited for men, as it smells earthy, and there isn’t anything remotely feminine about it..there is also a slight peppery edge, I don’t really enjoy the resinous smell it has…there is a certain quality about the scent, but not my cup of tea.
With mint in it I expected a certain freshness, but it is swallowed by the woodsy notes.
