Fraaagola Saalaaata is a compelling and unusual perfume of strawberries and salt notes. Available as 100 ml EDP. The nose behind this fragrance is Hilde Soliani.
I was so extremely excited to try this and now that I have, I feel a little let down. It's a very simple strawberry....and not the freshly picked kind but more of the plastic-y ( like Flavorite mentioned) doll hair or lip gloss type. The "salt" smell is very bitter to my nose and only lasts for maybe 3-5 minutes then fades leaving only the strawberry for a couple hours.I'm not repelled by this scent by any means but it doesn't do much for me in general and doesn't really match my personality either. I'll give it another try in the summer and perhaps it'll be more to my liking when the weather is warmer. I have to disagree that it smells like Womanity.....the salt note in this is nothing compared to the salt note in Womanity ( which I adore) and there is no strawberry in Womanity either. They smell nothing alike to me and Womanity is much more complex in my opinion. I am overly glad that I only purchased a sample as this is a very expensive perfume. I think I would have cried if I had blindly spent $300 on a bottle. It just goes to show that just because it's expensive, it does not make it a masterpiece.
UPDATE (several months later) I know I won't be popular for comparing this scent to both Britney's Circus Fantasy and SJP NYC but they really do have alot in common. Circus Fantasy doesn't even list strawberries as a note ( it lists rasberries, etc.) but I smell salty strawberries....I think a better interpretation too (still not really my type of scent though.) If you're not into paying top dollar for mediocre fragrances and wouldn't be too embarrassed to say you're wearing a Britney scent if asked, give Circus Fantasy a try instead ( you can buy a 1.7 oz bottle for about $10 dollars at your local Ross or TJ Maxx.
There are no surprises here. If you want to smell like strawberries but not cloyingly sweet, with a little bit of a sea air tang in the background, that is what you get here. I typically hate big loud long silage scents, but in this case, I must say...that at the price it is going for on some exclusive sites, they could give you more than 15 minutes of silage. It is very playful and simple, but it really lacks depth. It's what I imagine Strawberry Shortcake's hair would smell like (minus the shortcake).
I really like it, long lasting strawberry starburst salt fragrance. My roommate (male) hates it because it reminds him of herbal essences, and although i can see the comparison, this smells of higher quality with surprising lasting power.
