Trussardi
A unique visual signature based on accords, character, and seasonality
Nashi pear's creamy, honeyed character dominates immediately, lending an almost fruity-floral sweetness that feels simultaneously fresh and powdery. Lilac emerges quickly, its tart-violet character clashing slightly with the pear's sweetness, creating an initially slightly soapy impression—like a fragrance caught between fruit-forward freshness and vintage florality.
The rose settles into the composition with notable restraint, joining lilac in a soft, slightly dusty floral embrace that's predominantly powdery rather than dewy. Heliotrope's subtle almond-cherry character creates a gentle sweetness that prevents the heart from becoming austere, whilst the overall tonality feels cool, almost creamy—like smelling a well-worn powder puff rather than living flowers.
Serenolide and cashmeran establish a transparent, skin-like base that's barely perceptible beyond four hours. What remains is a whisper of powdery sweetness—predominantly heliotrope's almond notes merged with the cashmeran's woody-vanilla undertone—fading into near-invisibility with minimal projection or lasting presence on fabric.
My Scent arrives as a deliberately subdued statement—a fragrance that whispers rather than announces. Nathalie Gracia-Cetto has constructed something fundamentally soft-focused, where nashi pear's waxy, almost creamy stone fruit character immediately establishes a creamy sweetness rather than brightness. This isn't the sharp, green pear of more assertive fragrances; instead, it reads as honeyed and almost soap-like in its initial impression.
The heart reveals the fragrance's true identity: a rose-and-lilac duet that leans decidedly powdery rather than dewy. Lilac brings its characteristic grape-skin tartness, which prevents the rose from becoming saccharine, though only just. There's a faintly soapy quality here—that clean, almost vintage laundry note that suggests Gracia-Cetto was courting a nostalgic sensibility. The interaction between heliotrope's almond-cherry undertones and the lilac creates a gentle tonality that feels distinctly floral without floridity.
