Description
“The stylistic pathway of the Moon Collection continues in its many forms, geared to explore confines never reached before in the art of perfume-making, driving us in this dreamlike journey towards cosmic spaces that are ever more mysterious and secret Porpora is the name of the work contained in this precious passion red bottle, decorated with a gilded jewel-shaped cap and depicting the lunar phases with fine lacquers in fiery red. The creation is inspired by the magnificence of the famous Red Moon which sometimes leaps out, in a sudden fiery ball of light, from behind the horizon. Perhaps the most magical and mysterious image of this long trip down memory lane, made by the child in us as we reflect on the most peaceful, carefree period of our lives. Alarm, enthrallment, excitement and wonder when faced with so much magnificence are all enclosed in this precious creation, which opens with a bold top note provided by the Rose Absolute, surrounded by wild forest raspberries and spices, such as cinnamon and cloves. The bouquet of top notes then settles on an irreverent, brave heart, almost throwing all caution to the wind, thanks to an innovative intertwining of the sensual seductive power of Bulgarian Rose and the hypnotic effect of Poppy, contrasted by the mystical strength of incense and patchouli. This fine creation is sustained and characterized to ensure an extraordinary persistence on the skin, by the power of the chestnut wood, amalgamated with resins of Benjamin and Myrrh and enhanced by the mild strength of the precious blend of Amber & Musk, kept safe for more than thirty years by the Terenzi Family. The olfactory seal for a unique, rare essence.” – a note from the brand.

Hello Guys .. i finally got this, honestly this smells VERY EXPENSIVE ROSE FRAGRANCE with hint of minty note , may be because Damascus Rose has that touch to it .
It has slight touch of Cartier declaration d’un soir intense minus the spicy note .
It is very strong , i sprayed 1 spray on both my arms and it started choking me in the car and had to roll down the windows to get some fresh air .
Lasts forever .. Perfect for winters & also when you want something to last forever in HIGH HEAT .
AMAZZZZZZZZING BOTTLE.
But sad point is its nothing very unique i will use to layer it some good quality Oud or Something Very Spicy .
But if you want just Rose Scent that lasts forever go for it .. 10/10 for that ..
For uniqueness 7/10.

Perfume of male intelligence!
Fat burgundy rose surrounded by incense. A chestnut can be heard very well, it resembles new furniture or a grand piano on which there are roses.
Longevity: 10
Sillage: 10

Fragrance -Porpora Tiziana Terenzi
Bottle from – 2017
Porpora opens on my skin with a burst of moderatly sweet and loud blend of rose and raspberry followed by warm spices and with a wisper of smokey incense and earthy patchouli lurking at the edges.Then as it lingers on the skin,it slowly moves into a sweeter,musky,ambery and resinous scent with an astonishing touch chestnut.Porpora is very similar to Portrait of a Lady by Frederic Malle. He’s got that dark sexy vibe going on,and I Love him.

Opening reminds me extremely of Oud & Rose by S.T Dupont. But the perfume changes swiftly into a more wearable and enjoyable rose.
FIDERN – :
i own Portrait of Lady and i love it to death!! after completely wearing Porpora i can surely say that its shockingly amazing and similar to POAL, however the deepness and richness of POAL stands out! but still Porpora is a great value for money in case u want to have something like POAL in less budget 😉
9/10

The opening is a Damask rose and therefore smells like rose water. Then a strong vegetative warm spicy patchouli comes up and lingers. The overall scent reminds me of some other familiar perfume (perhaps Chichi Sapil for women). This fragrance is not for the weak hearts.
The longevity and sillage are fantastic. I am not talking about hours; it lasts for days.
I love the bottle design and the story behind it.
theSiskin – :
I have sniffed this fragrance before! and i think it’s kind of similar to “Portrait of A Lady” somehow.
It has rosy, cosmetic, with leather and raspberries. It is red roses, amber, incense, patchouli, cinnamon, myrrh, musk, and cloves. It reminds me a bit of “Flamenco” by Ramon Monegal with that rosy sweet patchouli.
It is also another impressive creation by Tiziana Terenzi.
