When evaluating an exclusive perfume from a critical point of view I find it very difficult to justify the existence of purely citrus compositions in this sector. What can be improved from a more popular and affordable citrus to a more exclusive and expensive, thus justifying the price and exclusivity, certainly is the performance and details, but there is still a limit on how you can handle this aspect while preserving the freshness and the lightness of the idea. Another factor that ends up being in this case as important as is the concept sold, which should be as coherent as possible so that the discrepancies do not jump so clearly. Zegna ironically missed wisdom in his Wisdom perfume to sell well the idea.
When you search and think about the concept of Wisdom you realize that experience and knowledge are related and convey an idea of maturity. Choosing a citrus to represent it goes just the opposite of the concept, because citrus does not say that. The nature of a citrus scent is volatile and ephemeral and sells very well the idea of joviality, lightness, joy. Now wisdom? How can something that does not persist and rapidly transform itself sell a concept that carries within itself the idea of something that endures and that reveals itself in part in a process of transformation?
As for the perfume itself, Wisdom sounds redundant in the collection, since we already have Talent playing the role of a citrus scent. Other than that, it also sounds unattractive, an aromatic citrus scent that sells a more classic idea that may differ from a fragrance like an 4711 cologne is in the details to a woody musk base that lasts a little longer. Yet, 220 dollars in 50 ml of something that does not sound original, is not connected with its concept and is redundant within the collection itself is very difficult to justify. In the end, the brand itself contradicts itself offering for $ 90 a citrus that in olfactory terms does not seem inferior (Acqua di Bergamoto). As I said at the beginning, there was a lack of wisdom here.

It is a calm citrus fougere with a distinct greenish herbal hue of lemon verbena at the beginning. No sharp, no overly citrusy or cutting, quite comfortable, and very very soapy clean, especially after a while. It will leave you carrying a huge chunk of a nice neroli soap.
