Aqua Allegoria Forte Nerolia Vetiver brings a refreshing twist to the fragrance scene. It’s price matches the niche fragrance market so I can’t complain.

The scent journey, however, is a tale of two halves. The opening act of vibrant neroli really is quite charming but the vetiver creates a stark contrast that might not blend seamlessly for everyone.

In my rotation, I still lean towards the consistent crispness of Acqua di Parma’s Colonia or the smooth transition of Jo Malone’s Lime Basil & Mandarin. They offer a more integrated scent experience from start to finish.

But what about you? Have you tried Aqua Allegoria Forte Nerolia Vetiver yet?
