Classic and familiar smelling (this is a revamp of the 1916 Colonia, after all) Essenza is a light, very clean, feelgood masculine fragrance that smacks of refinement and Italian chic. "Refreshing" and "luxury" are words that spring to mind and spring/summer are the seasons where it will shine, but I believe it could be worn all year round. Longevity and projection are not stellar, though being a myperfumeshop.com.au

Lasting Hours:6+ Fragrance:Eros Parfum Bought the decant. Fell in love with it. Got the full bottle 💯. Comparing this to the EDT, it has a more powdery dry down while the EDT has a creamier (vanilla) drydown. It's not as sweet as the other Eros and also not the loudest, the sillage is amazing though. This scent also sits closer to skin (high oil concentration) Better for people who prefer a matur shopee.com.my
