The moderate punch / appearance attested by the knowledgeable Monsieur T. I can not confirm for once. An older batch (2015) gives here a veritable longevity and density that goes far beyond the siesta...the equally present laurel can thus be worn with a lot of grandezza and cojones (if available) not only at Mardi Gras...

Here's a lot of citrus and herb already in the opening. Lavender, moss and patchouli are probably the MainPlayer here. The candy department, however, should be massively overwhelmed with this fragrance because sweet is here at most the smile of Ramon when he rattles the castanets ... Actually nix with oldschool - at least for the staff with style. Another successful collaboration with a famous artist started in 2008 with worldwide star Shakira. The company developed a line of new signature products inspired by and created for the singer. It is in 2009 that the company changed its name what it is today—simply, Puig. A license agreement was signed with Valentino to launch their new fragrance. One of the latest success was acquiring a majority stake in the Jean Gaultier fashion house.INFORMAL AND CASUAL. Its fresh and herbal smell make it a perfect ally for the daytime, whether in the office or for any event sunlight. The fragrance would actually what for the wonderful Woody Harrelson the last with his buddy Matthew McConnaghey in True Detective has left an almost epochal impression (at least in the first season).

A crucial event in the 1980s was signing the contract with Carolina Herrera to create and market all her fragrances. The success with her perfumes spread into the area of fashion industry and the company started producing Herrera’s fashion. In late 1990 one of the first celebrities who created their personal fragrances, Antonio Banderas, formed an agreement for production with Puig. The company’s business grew more and more and they turned on acquiring even more brands and expanding the portfolio of their products. They moved on with Nina Ricci in 1998.TIMELESS FASHION. Despite its long history of life, it has always maintained itself among one of the most promising national perfumes. Agua Brava reminds me less than 'Eau Sauvage' of the "gurgling torrent" theme; this is more like a deep, dark forest; the reminiscences of Pino Silvestre that appear in some of the preliminary comments are no accident. In the long opening, however, I find the Agua Brava to be quite prominently masculine spicy. Prominently represented is a juniper note, which can certainly make you think of genever and other juniper spirits (this pithy note can also be found in Ginepro Nero before Erbolario). There are even more herbs and spices grouped around it, which are responsible for the austere and tart notes in the kitchen cupboard. Children usually don't like them because they are too bitter and somehow too unpleasant: Bay leaf especially, and sage, lavender, and clove, which I tend to smell as clove, also fit in here. But that never turns into a somehow warm-brown 'oriental' direction: everything remains clear, fresh, dark green, unsweet and dry. As a perfumer Rosendo Mateu is responsible. It must have been a youthful work of this Spaniard, probably Catalan by name, because he still created new fragrances in 2015, over 45 years after this fragrance. After decades in the service of large and small brands, he has in old age even founded a small label under his own name.
