Blu Mediterraneo Mandorlo di Sicilia - Eau de Toilette

Smells like a lemon sugar cookie, and I love it. If you are a gourmand lover, this is for you! Great for spring/summer!

Absolutely loved it!!! If you are looking for an affordable alternative to Kilian’s Love, don’t be shy - this is it!! Will definitely repurchase.

Try Before You Buy…

I was so excited for this perfume that I blind bought it. As soon as I tried it, I was so disappointed. At first, it smells just like anice (a Liquorice/root beer smell). After a few minutes, it turns into a generic sweet smelling perfume with a touch of anice. I get very little-no almost scent. My MAIN issue is how WEAK this perfume is. I have to soak my skin and clothes in it to be able to smell it, and even then, it fades almost immediately into nothing. So disappointed.

Love it! But it may not be for everyone.

Personally I think this fragrance smells amazing, it's one of my favorite perfumes I've ever used. However it is a very heavy scent with a very sweet smell, one spritz is more than enough. If you prefer light florals or a something a bit more subtle this is one you might want to skip.

SO GROSS.

Disgusting. This fragrance is TERRIBLE. wanted something that smells like sweet almond THIS IS NOT IT. When on the skin at first you get this root beer scent which is tolerable but the dry down is where I say absolutely not. This smells like a plastic doll that had been left in the sun.

Amazing cream soda vibes

Wow, this so amazingly unique. I blind bought this based on reviews. It’s like a summer version of Hypnotic Poison. Root beer/cream soda, fizzy almond and anise vibes and I LOVE it. The bottle design makes you think it’s going to be a fresh men’s cologne type of scent but then it’s so far from that. If you love Hypnotic Poison and are looking for something lighter and summery, give this a try.

Synthetic and Cheap

Exact, like literally exact dupe of Love Dont be Shy. Same synthetic scent, same nauseating vibe. Buyer beware.

amaretti cookies in a bottle

This does not smell like a root beer float! If you’re Italian ... it smells EXACTLY like amaretti cookies!! Also known as almond cookies in English but that specific recipe for sure! Great scent, definitely VERY heavy on the almond, it’s all I smell! To be expected of course! So good.

Signature Scent

Still is my signature scent after wearing this for 4 years! Smells like a rich vanilla root beer float!! Not too sweet and is perfect with my chemistry. I am complimented on this perfume every time I wear it out!

Root Beer

A nice summer fragrance. Indeed, it does smell like root beer.

MUST HAVE!

My absolute favorite fragrance, I’ve gone through at least 10 bottles! I get so many compliments every time I wear this. It’s super sweet but doesn’t smell like candy or a cheap fragrance. There is nothing that compares to Mandorlo do Sicilia.

Put off by this scent

I tought I liked this perfume. Hadn't smelled it in a couple of years. So it was a bit if a blind purchase I admit. And I am put off by the scent. Smells a little 'fake'...like a scent they'd put on a plastic doll or something.
