FRANCESCA BIANCHI
UNDER MY SKIN
Under My Skin opens with a bold kick of black pepper and spicy nuances, intertwined with a zesty burst of grapefruit and a hint of lavender's calming floral touch. As it settles, the heart reveals a rich bouquet of Bulgarian rose and orris root, complemented by the warm, slightly spicy essence of carnation. This intriguing blend paves the way for a complex base, where the sensuous layers of leather and vanilla mingle with the deep, resinous qualities of Tolu and Peru balsams. The final dry-down is an enveloping experience, marked by the warmth of musk, ambergris, and earthy oakmoss, rounded out by the creamy richness of sandalwood and tonka bean. Under My Skin is a unisex fragrance that thrives in any season, making it a versatile choice for various occasions. Its moderate sillage and impressive longevity mean it's suitable for both day and night wear, adapting seamlessly to different environments. This fragrance stands out in its category for its sophisticated balance between warmth and spice, making it an excellent pick for those who appreciate depth in their scents. If you're drawn to fragrances that blend both boldness and elegance, think of Under My Skin as a more refined alternative to classic leather scents like Tom Ford's Tuscan Leather.
edit_noteEditor's Read
The opening leans on spicy notes and black pepper, then a orris root and carnation accord takes over within the first hour. What you'll smell on skin hours in is leather, castoreum, and peru balsam — the base does the heavy lifting here. Wears across seasons without obvious peaks. Verdict: a solid mid-tier pick with broad appeal at 4.1/5.
