Profumum Roma Acqua Viva EDP

Description

Acqua Viva is the scent of lemons still on the tree, bright, zesty and unsweetened. Profumum Roma built it around Amalfi lemon, capturing the bracing, clean smell of the zest rather than a sugary lemonade. Broom flower from the slopes of Mount Etna adds a green, sunny floral touch, and cypress and cedar give it a dry, woody backbone. Reviewers describe a sherbet-like burst of lemon that resolves into a hint of barbershop fougère and soft woods. It is simple in the best way: a pure Mediterranean citrus.

Fragrance Pyramid

• Top: Amalfi Lemon
• Heart: Mount Etna Broom
• Base: Cypress, Cedar

Performance

Longevity: Moderate. Profumum's citrus is richer than a typical cologne, but it is still a lemon scent and fades faster than the house's heavier gourmands.
Sillage: Moderate, clean and bright.
Projection: Arm's length for the first hour or two, then close to the skin.

An honest note: lemon is a naturally fleeting note. Respraying in the afternoon is normal for a citrus like this.
