Cerruti 1881 Eau de Toilette 100ml Spray Flavia cut with sea salt —

cut with sea salt — the opening is sharp and zesty

Ambroxan and salt air — Olympea opens like standing on a cliff above Mediterranean water

Two or three pats with a cotton pad

Star anise and vanilla still do the opening heavy lifting

Cerruti 1881 Eau de Toilette 100ml Spray Flavia cut with sea salt —Cerruti 1881 opens with galbanum and bergamot that green, slightly sharp opening that leans herbal rather than fruity. The heart softens into carnation and rose, then settles into a warm amber and musk base that doesn't announce itself. Eau de Toilette, 100ml spray. Two or three spritzes in the morning sit close to the skin, closer to a second skin scent than projection. Good for someone who wants fragrance that whispers rather than shouts.
