TIZIANA TERENZI Kirke Extrait de Parfum

Kirke is a different take on a fruity musk profile. I love the passion fruit and pear take rather than the typical pineapple or bergamot.

For me 4 sprays max gets me through about 9 hours (I usually shower by the 8-9 hour mark). Projection is amazing for the initial 3-3.5 hours. Leaves a nice scent trail and throughout the life of the fragrance It continues to linger in the air.

Great for year round but will say shines bright during the spring and summer. This can be office safe with about 2 sprays as this may offend if you over spray. I love Kirke and glad I was able to add this to my collection.

I'll keep it very simple. As a man, i think, I would admire if a woman smells like that. AMAZING

I love KIRKE. The first spray is definitely fruity, but not cloying. It's delicious, but as it settles I acquire more of a bitter sweet smoked oud. YES, oud, which can be a total turn off for some but I actually enjoy it. Definitely NOT for the weak. The sweetness from the opening lasts only a couple of minutes, unfortunately. Then it's a very sophisticated vanilla musk. I like to layer this with an APPLE perfume, it really brings back the passionfruit and raspberry fruit cocktail from the beginning. I wouldn't recommend wearing this during the day, or any hot day. This is to be worn at night. It's such a beautiful perfume, I like it by itself but love to layer it with Eden Juicy Apple or Cheirosa 62 hair and body mist, it takes it to another level. So intoxicating and sensual, I refuse to stay home while wearing it. This is a DATE NIGHT perfume. The scent is just as pretty as the bottle. It's a spoiled RICH GIRL perfume that could even be layered with Chocolate. Some people have no vision. I LOVE IT. I wouldn't consider it a fruity perfume because of the dry down, but more of a Sugar, Spice & Everything Nice perfume. With a shot of heavy musk. BISOUS

Fruit bomb, absolutely.
Not for everyone, some one take too loud, too sweet.
But I love it.
Even my dry skin pass 12 hours, smell like same.

When I saw the raspberry cheesecake comment, I thought that was too good to be true.. but I get it, it is there briefly in the opening. The opening is a quick hit of raspberry cheesecake, luxurious and indulgent, and then you get the peach, straight raspberry and pear separate but still somehow blended. I don't know the passionfruit note enough to say if it is there, but something fruity and wonderful is. The thing that gets me about these scents is once you smell these, you suddenly understand the difference between chemical and natural scents. The fruit notes smell like real, succulent, ripe fruit. There is a perfect balance of depth to it as well, it doesn't bring the fruit down, just keeps it from floating away. I don't feel like this has too much projection if you wear it properly (don't overspray). I think one spray on the wrists dabbed together and one on the neck would do you. I am not sure about longevity, I have a couple more Terenzi scents on order and now I just can't wait.. Terenzi is very Italian, there is emotion in this scent, I am feeling it, warm energy, it is red petals floating all around me, joyous.

Update: if this was the only Terenzi I ever got I would probably be happy with it, but after a few of them they all have the same weird plastic fruity note that I didn’t get at first. That plastic fruit note has started giving me headaches so that’s too bad. 😟 I found a cheap Arabian style dupe that is close enough for $25 that I don’t need to buy this again. Kind of a bummer bc I did love it at first.
