A citrusy, peppery fragrance, with herbs and spices from far-away lands and resins from mysterious plants.

Lorenzo Viloresi Theseus
it starts very similar to Terre Hermes EDT by very vetiver citrusy notes but it changes the direction to woody and green scent still dominating the vetiver note
niche the quality is there for sure. it’s deep and rich. performance is really good considering its EDT.
I got compliment the first day I used it.

اگر میخواهید سرگشته و شیدای این عطر نشوید باید همچون اولیس گوشهای خود را با موم ببنید و خود را نیز به دکل کشتی بسته) و شاید باید چشمان و بینی ( دماغ ) خود را نیز مسدود نمایید .
در آن زمان همچون نقاشی کور رایحه ی عطر را در جان خود احساس نمایید

A warm torbid Vetiver. Hazel shadows. Very elegant and classic.
Reminds me a lot Eau Sauvage Parfum de Dior. Which seems to be the direct copycat actually.

Theseus is clearly the starting point from which Lorenzo Villoresi developed his fragrance *Forever Now* for the Gucci Museo. It strikes as a woody aromatic composition with a remarkable green / herbal element and subtle / undefined floral patterns. Fresh and spicy, perfectly unisex, very easy to like, not overly complicated and with a decent lasting power. Personally I’m not excited but I can see this becoming a great all-rounder for anyone looking for an easy-wear which takes the distance from the sticky sportsy fragrances available on the market.
I’ll stick to *Forever Now* which I find overall more refined, more vetiver prominent (which is always a plus in my book) and with nicer spicy-floral patterns.
Rating: 7/10

THESEUS is a perfect “sunshine in bottle” fragrance. Based on the notes I did not expect what I got at all. First – this is VERY aromatic, but underneath the herbal and aromatic opening notes there is something that smells like pure bliss – sunshine, sunkissed skin, warmth, happiness. For this cold weather outside I could not be happier to try this. Unlike others stated – this actually had a very nice longevity – 7 and more hours, though it did stay very close to skin.
THESEUS is completely unisex, it has this warm, sweet vibe, but it’s also very aromatic and herbal. Nor too masculine, nor feminine. A really good choice. A must try for sure!

I am big fan of his perfumes. There is so much range and I love this smell, is different. I like to wear in the morning when I go to work. The citrus smell is soft and it reminds me of a morning after the rain, it has a moss combination.It is unique and beautiful.

absolutely not synthetic..a pure tea fragrance..a shame its loose duration and sloppy sillage!
Performs better in hot days!

I don’t think it smells synthetic, either. On my skin it starts off smelling like old-school NIVEA cream, a bit later more like Kamill hand cream, the one heavy on the chamomille. Refined, high-end versions of both, obviously. Hours into the wear the herbs and spices become a lot more distinct and prominent, but the scent never loses that creamy chamomille feeling. The drydown is quite sweet. A slightly herbaceous, creamy comfort scent for sure.

I really like this fragrance, and doesn’t understand why others smell it synthetic. I think it is absolutely not synthetic, (as Villoresi does not have any synthetic parfums I think), so this is a very sophisticated, rather masculin scent. Maybe confident woman can wear it.
