Soavissima Profumum Roma for women

I keep thinking that 'soave' is italian for 'soap'. This scent is like strong but cheap incense, or old-fashioned perfume soap. I would expect to smell like this, were I an old nun... Maybe I was mistaken about liking 'powder' notes... I dunno... But I will not put this scent on, again. Free Soavissima sample, anyone?
NB this is the strongest perfume I have ever encountered. Just one drop hugged me in a cloud of unwanted soap smell for hours on end!

The first thing I thougt was 'this is just like Teint de Neige, but much more expensive', but when de opening dries away it becomes a more ambery, beautiful scent!
I love it!

The initial blast reminded me of a very old open bottle of turned perfume! sour, and not very pleasant on my nose.
About half an hour later, it smells a lot better of sweet almonds and slightly dirty, woody musk.
Not my thing, but the lasting power is quite good.

What a powdery delight! :-)
Soavissima is very straightforward with powdery notes (not mentioned here, but very profound), white flowers and amber that are all floating together - I would say - from the beginning till the end. And the end doesn't come anytime soon! As with other Profumum fragrances, the longevity is amazing! Hours and hours later i am still getting gentle puffs of this deliciously feminine, simple blend. When I say simple - here I mean luxurious simplicity, elegant and refined laces and silk, because again - as with other Profumum fragrances, I am thinking: this is a very expensive stuff that SMELLS VERY EXPENSIVE (no matter how simple or straightforward), it's quite splendid!(Of course, you have to love powdery scents!). :-)
Luckyscent.com says: "...this is the slipper-footed princess of powder scents tiptoeing about..." and I think that's a perfect description. In spite of all the luxury, this is very age-flexible scent, I think - could be easily worn by a 16 or 90 years old princess! :-)
