      1888 (2013) • CASAMORATI🔺, ScentAdvice

      1888 is clearly a strong, punchy fragrance, as reflected by the color of the fragrance itself. It’s a warm spicy scent, with a peppery amber with floral or even herbal touch.

      My first impression was that of a cola syrup scent with a herbal or minty backdrop. After a few minutes, it becomes warmer and deeper, and the spices become stronger. It actually reminds me of a deeper, higher quality and spicier version of the L’Oreal Men Expert Barber Club products that I use on my beard. Although that’s supposed to be cedar wood, but it does surprise me that 1888 doesn’t list more wood notes other than sandalwood and birch.

      Later in the drydown is becomes a bit sweeter, which I feel like stems from the patchouli, although I read people say it’s a honey-like sweetness, which I can get behind. Especially, because it also gets creamier. Very pleasant and indeed quite an addictive scent.

      The longevity is amazing, but if you’re looking for an even stronger (and more expensive) fragrance that smells almost identical, check out Moresque Contessa.
