The Character and History of the Fragrance
Dolce Fiore Lattimo is a unisex eau de parfum released in 2019 by the niche house Dolce Fiore.
The composition is part of the Murano Collection, a line where expressive perfumery meets a vivid, memorable character.
Lattimo is built around the contrast of juicy fruits, warm amber and gentle sweetness.
Its character is both cheerful and rich: citrus freshness quickly gives way to a velvety fruity heart before settling on the skin into a deep woody-musky accord.
The Fragrance Pyramid and Development
The top notes open the fragrance with sparkling bergamot, blackcurrant and mandarin.
The opening is juicy, slightly tart and dynamic, so Lattimo makes an immediate impression and does not fade into the background.
In the heart, fruity nuances of passion fruit and raspberry meet amber and ylang-ylang.
The exotic tartness of passion fruit adds vividness, raspberry softens the composition, while white-floral nuances and amber make it rounder and more sensual.
The Base and Wearability
The trail reveals patchouli, vanilla, a woody accord and musk.
The base leaves a warm, sweetly woody impression and supports a very pronounced sillage, making the fragrance especially suitable for occasions when you want to emphasize your individuality.
Lattimo is a good choice for those who enjoy expressive fruity-sweet compositions with ambery depth.
Thanks to its unisex positioning, it can smell different on different people: on some skin, juicy fruits will stand out more clearly, while on other skin, vanilla, patchouli and musky warmth will take center stage.
For daytime wear, moderate application is sufficient, while in the evening the composition can be applied more generously.
Specific recommendations for applying this release to skin and clothing have not been provided, so it is best to adjust the number of sprays gradually, taking into account its high intensity and your personal sensitivity to the fragrance.
Perfumery Style
Lattimo is credited to Christian Carbonnel and Chris Maurice.
Their work centers on a striking transition from a fresh citrus-fruity opening to a rich ambery base, giving the fragrance a cohesive and multidimensional character.
For a similar mood, you might explore Tom Ford Black Orchid, V Canto Stricnina and Giardino Benessere Febe.
At the same time, Lattimo maintains its own distinctive profile: passion fruit and raspberry stand out in the heart, complemented by pronounced vanilla-woody depth in the drydown.
No other concentrations of this fragrance are listed in the available data.
