This is the fourth Homoelegans fragrance I’m trying out and this is the most modest one. I smell melon, cocoa and something watery. Ah! I read I should have smelled cucumber. That probably explains the melon and the watery stuff. Do I smell something citruslike as well?
Tadzio to me is taking a dive in the pool on a summer’s day. I surface again and take in the summer air.
Needless to say: I love this scent.

A fresh and young scent, a bit salty and intriguing. It is interesting,very versatile and perfectly unisex. The oceanic notes are immediately felt, give the scent that marine and salty touch sweetened even by cucumber and orange. I like it, it’s a sensitive and evocative fragrance.
Sillage: 7./10
Longevity: 8./10
Scent: 8./10
Overall: 8./10

Tadzio is a perfect train wreck of bad smells – stale sweat, pee and burnt toast. The culprit is forever-awful immortelle, backed up by pissy blackcurrant and a horrible marine/cucumber accord that would be perfectly at home in a ’90s deodorant. Irredeemably awful.

One of the greatest immortelle fragrances. Ever.

Finally decided to pull the trigger on this beauty, after re-discovering a sample in my drawer.
This is sheer poetry to me, spring like, young and fresh. Both fragrances from Homoelegans are really true to their inspirational backgrounds and feel very coherent as a concept. To me this turned out to be a scent I needed time to warm to, one that stayed in my memory until it finally clicked when re-applying my sample.
Named after and inspired by Tadzio, the young boy, object of affection of the elderly composer in Visconti’s beautiful movie Death in Venice, the fragrance conveys a feeling of lost youth, summers gone and love for the sea. In fact I would love it if Homoelegans would create Tadzio’s counterpart; the aged artist who longs for youth, vitality and beauty.
As with Quality of Flesh Tadzio tells a story, it’s niche perfumery on a sublime level. Tadzio will probably be among my favorite spring fragrances this year. I get immortelle, cucumber and sea notes, and the scent stays for a long time, sillage is moderate.
I look forward to HE’s third scent which I have pre-ordered already, it will be released at Esxence in Milan this week, and I will be there!!!

so sweat like, green as bamboo shoots, when dry down become like cotton t-shirt you sweat on for many days and you just drop it of .. but its unique and remind me of sex panther cologne of odeon and panda of zologist and afternoon of faun of eldo .. the theme is dried sweat
i gave you some similars up there

Tadzio is a very unique fragrance. I haven’t smelled everything out there but in all these years: I have never smelled anyrhing identical.
First it is an immortelle bomb. If you like the scent of immortelle flower then this might grow on you. A very true to life immortelle at that.
Besides the great yellow flower, there is heavy cucumber and sea salt and something tangy I think is the oppoponax peeking through. It smells like Amouage Jubilation XXV, 6 hours past initial application and that reaidue being scrubbed off by l’occitane’s immortelle foaming face scrub while eating cucumber salad by a windy early spring beach. Bery strange indeed.
Ultimately, this is impossible to mistake for any-old fragrance and it’s sharp freshie-warm-vibe is unforgettable.
Scent: 8/10 objectively for originality but ultimately makes me unsure if I could pull it off.
Projection: 7/10 for the first hour or so. It has a good “push” and then calms down to a 4/10 for the next hour and down to a soft up-close-and-personal 2/10 but only becomes a skin scent at the 5 hour mark.
Sillage: 4/10 paradoxically for it’s projection at rest, it doesn’t leave much of a train.
Longevity: 7/10 it lasts pretty damn well actually and survives light water misting or light washing. I’m impressed.
Would I buy a full bottle: No. Not because it’s bad, but because the sharpness of the scent doesn’t mesh with me as well as I’d hoped. It’s good juice but about as niche as it gets. If you love immortelle, this will be your best friend.
