Description
Mandarino di Sicilia is a complex citrus fruit. In the cycle from flower to unripe fruit and full ripeness, its perfumes change. By recreating it in its entirety while removing any source of interference, Perris Monte Carlo pays homage to this gift from Sicily. The olfactory experience is exhilarating. Like living through all four seasons at once: the flower, the green leaf, the peel with its semi-bitter notes and the sweet flesh. Completing the bouquet are Jasmine, Geranium and Amber. The result is a powerful fragrance that transports us to Sicily: on a beautiful sunny day, the sunbeams warm the fruits and release their sweet, heady perfume…


Notes: Top notes are Green Mandarin, Yellow Mandarin, Bitter Orange and Petitgrain Paraguay; middle notes are Orange Blossom, Geranium and Jasmine; base notes are Cedar, Musk and Amber.

Release Date: 2018

Longevity and layering

Did you know that fragrance longevity can be greatly increased by beginning your routine with clean, moisturized skin? We recommend starting with a shower gel or soap that is either neutrally scented or in the same scent family as your perfume. Then, add a moisturizer and/or body oil and allow it to soak in. Finally, add your fragrance on top. This added moisture barrier will hold the scent molecules for more time, allowing the fragrance to last longer. Think of it as a primer for perfume!
You can also layer scented products (including lotion, soap, body oil, perfume oil, and other alcohol-based perfumes) to add depth, intensity, or a variety of other facets to your final fragrance. We suggest beginning with similar scents (such as two different citrus or vanilla fragrances) and testing those layering combinations, then branching out to more experimental pairings. Feeling stuck? Shared notes, even in very different fragrances, can help bring the final scent together. The sky's the limit - have fun!
