About this fragrance

Written from the structured record above — note pyramid, accord weights, perfumer credit and era.

Launched in 2015, Zegna Neroli is a crisp, bracing take on the citrus aromatic genre. The opening is a sharp, sunlit burst of petitgrain, bergamot, lemon, and mint, with a ginger kick that adds a lively spark. This is not a soft, powdery neroli; it is green, bitter, and refreshingly direct. As it settles, the heart reveals a more complex character: neroli and jasmine provide a clean white floral core, while lavender, rosemary, and cypress inject an herbal, almost medicinal coolness. Rhubarb lends a subtle tartness that keeps the composition from becoming too soapy. The base is where things get interesting: cypriol (nagarmotha) and moss give an earthy, woody depth, while ambroxan, sandalwood, and musk provide a smooth, modern finish. The result is a versatile fragrance that feels both classic and contemporary. It suits men who appreciate a sharp, green citrus with a woody backbone—ideal for spring and summer daytime wear, whether at the office or on a weekend outing. Collectors of aromatic citrus scents will find this a worthy addition, especially given its discontinued status.

中文簡介

2015年推出嘅 Zegna Neroli,係一款爽朗直接嘅柑橘芳香調。開頭係 petitgrain、佛手柑、檸檬同薄荷嘅尖銳清新,加上生薑嘅辛辣,好有活力。中調轉為橙花同茉莉嘅白花香,但唔會太粉,反而有薰衣草、迷迭香同絲柏帶嚟嘅草本涼意,大黃嘅微酸令成件事無咁皂感。基調用 cypriol(香附子)同苔蘚帶出泥土木質感,再加 ambroxan、檀香同麝香收尾,現代又順滑。整體適合鍾意綠意柑橘嘅男士,春夏白天用一流,返工或放假都啱。而家已經停產,收藏價值更高。
