Alessandro Mazzolari for women and men

Soft, gentle Alessandro, my signature scent, unique like the sales assistant at Mazzolari's.

Enchantable in one word. Not too sweet because of the presence of bitter almond. Powdery and coccon! I tried all the fragrances with almond note but this one is the perfect balance!

Almonds dripping w/honey set against a backdrop of soft powder. I'll take two please......

I've had a love affair w/this scent for a coupla years now. We're still madly in love w/no end to the passion in sight!

Alessandro is one of the only scents that I've ever come across that I would consider signature scent worthy. She's heartbreakingly unique w/an ambery colored depth minus the actual amber.

Sweet but not toothachingly so. The almonds provide a bit of a roasted bite w/out being bitter. The vanille is done brilliantly taking a backseat to the whole thing filling in only where really needed and not standing out in the least. Then there's the heliotrope.....soft, round, powdery, w/out weighing anything down. It fairly buzzes w/life and a frequency of it's very own. Alessandro resonates in the place of jazz for me. She smells like the sound of a late night saxaphone.

I can see San Francisco at midnight perfectly. The scent of this beauty swirling around you keeping you warm,inviting those close to you to come in closer, needing to come in closer. Honestly~this perfume is the scent of a story. Your own very personal one of course!

She's perfect day and night. She doesn't get too far away from you but she holds her own. Sillage 6/10, longevity at least 8 hours. If you love honey or almonds~she's an absolute must try!

At first it smelled just like sugared almonds but immediately the honey notes come out and the almonds morph from straightforward wedding almonds to lightly roasted ones, making this slightly more interesting. It is still a powdery scent but not overpowering with the powder, just enough to give a soft cloud like feel. The almonds aren't really bitter but there is a hint of sharpness, just like almond extract. Nice comfort scent.

To me Alesandro is trully captivating. I love almonds, powder and I love black (sour, morello)cherries and although there are NO cherries in this luxurious potion, when I first applied it, all I could think of was black cherry liqueur. :-)
This really is a dreamy, powdery scent, rather fascinating, very graceful and elegant, as well as somewhat cute. It is not complicated or intricate, to me it is straightforward, a little dry, but warm, light and breezy, bittersweet and charming. I would say that it doesn't seem to last very long on me, but maybe that has something to do with your individual nose/chemistry, as people around me say otherwise.

Alessandro is my elegant comfort scent. I just fall into the softness of it. It is a very feminine powdery almond scent. I love almond scents, and heliotrope, but I did not think I liked powder scents...until I tried this one. I do not find the almond bitter at all, and the honey is just the extra bonus of the fragrance. This is the only one of my fragrances that I esteem enough to keep in its box. It just feels gorgeously self-indulgent when I take it out to wear it.
