TIZIANA TERENZI Andromeda Extrait de Parfum

Named after the mythical princess wife of Greek hero Perseus is Andromeda, a constellation located in the northern sky, between Cassiopeia's and the Great Square of Pegasus.
It’s infinite beauty inspired the genius 𝐏𝐚𝐨𝐥𝐨 𝐓𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐳𝐢 to create 𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐄𝐃𝐀 the fragrance 𝐛𝐲 𝐓𝐢𝐳𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐚 𝐓𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐳𝐢, a prismatic fruity floral cocooned in a majestic oriental foundation.
Opening with the radiant essence of ylang, silky roses and pear blossom, carefully lifted by the fresh juiciness of bergamot.
𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐄𝐃𝐀’s introduction packs such a beautiful punch, that I assure you, it would conquer your heart in a blink of an eye.

As the scented constellation begins to develop on skin a sugary peach, coconut and jasmine become the shining stars, revealing a creamy nectarous aroma of alluring proportions, carrying the blend into a foundation where flirtatious vanilla and tonka meet with ebony wood and soft cashmeran, gifting the wearers with a unique blend that is both playful and deep.

Andromeda's bottle is a masterpiece. A heavy golden cap with a celestial motif on its top and a white, ceramic-like bottle just as heavy. Obviously, a very pretty addition to my perfume collection. As for the fragrance itself, I find it very intriguing: a mix of smoky flowers, an extraterrestrial peach and some weird (but in a good way :), alien grass. Definitely an out-of-this-world olfactory experience. It does share some similarities with Erba Pura, but Andromeda's beauty is rather ethereal unlike EP's loud, super-confident 'personality'.
I really enjoy Andromeda and I'd love to try more of Paolo Terenzi's creations in the future. 5 stars from me!

This is a love for me. It's slightly sweet, the peach coming through nicely, and has that lovely woody dry-down while still keeping some sweetness. I prefer this on the skin rather than on clothes and it lasts quite a while on me (8+ hours).

This is one of the few that gives me goosebumps when I smell it (suffice to say I'm in love).

Truly and deeply one of my signature scents.
I bought a bottle in 2016 on a layover in Kiev. I had 3 hours to spend and was spending most of it in the duty free shop. When I tested this one I fell in love straight away! I walked around a bit, kept smelling my wrist and after an hour or so I decided I had to have it.
The price was bigger than I expected, Which was easily justified as it’s an extrait de Parfum.... and I can now say, it’s so worth it.
This lasts all day and night, with a sillage that is big but not overpowering. Any time I wear this I get compliments.

It opens very fresh, definitely get the bergamot and grass but I can smell the peach straight away. After a while it turns a bit softer, a little powdery but there’s still a deepness to it. I just can’t get enough. I’ve had this for a while now, maybe over a year or even 2 and I have barely used 1/4th of it.
I love this perfume so much. A true gem!

This smells to me like what a wealthy woman 30s to 40s driving around in a white Mercedes Maybach S-class convertible in the summer would smell like. Its so luxe and sweet and beautiful and smells mad expensive and very well done. I love it and there is nothing basic about it. That ebony note is so interesting too.
