It’s no White Linen.
I think I would like this better as something I could add to a load of wash, on a dryer sheet, or while ironing a shirt, rather than as a perfume. Kind of a starchy-type smell, neither particularly feminine or masculine. More of a fragrance for clothes than for skin.
I am going to try layering this with another perfume and see if that makes a difference.

I bought Puro Lino after watching Jeremy Fragrance video on strongest smelling perfumes. He recommended it as a laundry scent. I don’t find it as strong as he says but its a nice, clean, fresh scent. As a caregiver to my grandmother who is in her nineties and very incontinent, I use it to cover the smell of urine between washings. It works. Jeremy and Puro Lino – strongly recommended for nursing homes.

Meh. I think this smells lovely on fabrics (no wonder given its name!), but I don’t want my skin to smell of it. Nice geranium, and the cleanest musk ever. Monstrous projection and longevity, I was literally waiting for it to fade.

In the world of “not a perfume” fragrances PURO LINO is a winner in my book. I was wearing the sample for whole day and it was simply adorable.
Even though the aldehydic opening might be off putting for some as it’s rather sharp and chemical, I think it’s the most accurate smell to represent freshly washed linen sheets with a good old old school washing powder (unscented though). It smells fresh, clean and very comfy. As the scent develops, aldehydes calms down and I am left with a beautifully fresh and clean musky lemon verbena.
It lasted around 6 hours and maybe even more as it blends with ones chemistry so well that it’s somehow hard to distinct where my own smell ends and where PURO LINO begins, I did get compliments on how clean I smell around 8 hours after applying PURO LINO.
PURO LINO will be a perfect choice for those seeking a clean, but not soapy scent for their everyday use in “no-scent-policy” environment. You will smell like you just put on a clean pair of clothes. Unlike most other creations of this kind this is also very unique do to the old school chemical vibe from the first hours.

I agree with my fellow reviewer, Puro Lino is a fragrance that reminds me of laundered and starched shirts.
Officina della Essenze successfully completed their mission and came up with this fragrance that, with great sillage and longevity, perfectly depicts the scent of freshly laundered clothes (though I must admit that my laundry smells very different).
Puro Lino was constructed around main notes of aldehydes and musk which give the fragrance a very soapy feel; on top of that I have the feeling that I can actually smell the fabric (clearly linen, not cotton or anything else).
The fragrance reminds me of the good old times when I was a kid and when clothes were washed and spun in two different machines (long before the invention of hypo-allergen and fragrance-free fabric softeners).
I cannot picture myself actually wearing Puro Lino but it certainly sent me on a nice trip down memory lane.

Cleanest and airiest kind of fragrance that I never met in my life before. Clear purity in the bottle. Fresh towels from barbershop dried in the garden. Childhood… grandma closet with white bedclothes – wonderful memory from the past. White shirt of the gentlemen, who is going to the church every Sunday. Cool air which wakes you up every morning during lazy vacation. Puro Lino is really wonderful scent that everybody knows from the past. However it is very modern and comforting, nothing old-fashioned. There is almost chemical freshness that will surround you. I think this aura is created by the aldehydes and geranium; musk (the white one and not animalic) also play important role giving this “fresh shirt effect”. In my opinion PL is the winner in the group of fresh, clean fragrances.
