The last couple of days I've felt like wearing FENDI THEOREMA.
The bottle
It has an interesting bottle because it slants upward, making it both a tactile and a visual delight, and the box is handsome and different with an Asian-type closure, as can be seen in the link.
The notes and classification
It has notes of jasmine, amber, vanilla, musk, oakmoss, and sandalwood. Is is classified as an oriental fragrance and is somewhat spicy.
How does the fragrance develop on the skin?
I bought this unsniffed, because I was told by several that it smells like chocolate and oranges. Surprisingly, it does. These notes flow beneath the whole of the fragrance.
It is not a linear fragrance, so it is pleasurable to wear it through the various stages as it develops.
It starts out with a blast of orange/jasmine with bits of chocolate woven underneath. This is the only time it has a sweet aspect, and that part doesn't last long. After a short time the amber, sandal and musk play into the rest of the notes. The dry down is not sweet, but rather, it is interesting, perhaps giving credence to its name Theorema. At that point, it feels like relaxing in an orange grove eating bitter dark chocolate. It has good staying power and wafts gently as I move my arms.
Can it be worn by both men and women?
Yes, I believe it could be worn equally by a man or a woman.
Is this a gourmand fragrance?
I didn't include this, when I first reviewed sweet orange fragrances, but I added it later, because it feels more like orange blossom, as it develops to the base notes.
The chocolate is quite strong, so I'd likely include this with chocolate fragrances that I like.
Do you wear this?
What do you like about it?
