The year 2010 gave us Mexican Lyme Il Profumiere. Massimiliano Torti — the creative mind behind this fragrance.
Brand country — Italy, with its deep-rooted relationship with the fragrance industry. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
The fragrance is very long-lasting, staying on the skin for 12 hours or more, gradually revealing its notes
The scent will linger in the air even after its wearer has left.
The perfume has a fresh scent that is not too intense, so it does not overwhelm those around you with strong essences
A rich and elegant fragrance that gently unfolds on the skin and lasts most of the day, leaving a delicate trail
Fragrances for spring and summer unfold with light citrus notes, floral and fruity accords, filling the composition with freshness, airiness, and a feeling of carefree lightness on warm days
The note pyramid of Mexican Lyme unfolds as a living composition, where accents shift smoothly and sequentially. The style of Il Profumiere is clear in details that define the fragrance identity. Nothing here feels random, and the structure feels complete all the way through.
At olfactory-group level the composition is built around Citrus, Wood, Floral and Spicy.
When the pyramid is blended into one block the notes arrive together with a glittering citrus mood: Bergamot, Bitter Orange, Cedar, Heliotrope, Lemon, Lime and Mandarin. In this case 7 notes act as one coherent layer, building sunny vitality that feels seamless.
The middle and base stages are perceived as a smooth transition from opening to trail, which keeps the fragrance coherent.
The accord architecture is shaped by these accords: Citrus, Floral, Wood and Spicy forming a compact and readable structure. The stylistic positioning is unisex, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived.
Taken together Mexican Lyme holds a coherent structure — the opening sets direction, the middle layer carries the identity, and the base secures the trail. This is the type of composition best judged on skin.
