103 Scent Bar, launched in 2011, sits firmly in the category of a unisex fragrance, rooted in the sweet and gourmet families. By character, it falls into the spicy, sweet, and animals groups. The palette of this fragrance is exceptionally rich: traces of musk, fruit, floral, gourmet, citrus, and whiteflower can also be found — a rare combination that makes this perfume truly one of a kind. Concentration — perfume extract: exactly what it needs to be.
It carries a moderate sillage, leaving a trail that lingers pleasantly in the air. A couple of sprays will carry you through the whole day — longevity is firmly high. Made in Italy, backed by a long and proud tradition. A rich, layered composition that reveals itself differently depending on your mood and the time of day.
The fragrance is highly persistent and lasts on the skin for up to 8–10 hours, gradually revealing its notes and allowing you to enjoy the full bouquet throughout the day
It can be felt in close proximity, but does not attract the attention of those around you
The perfume has a rich aroma that will help you stand out from the crowd and create a memorable image
The most concentrated form of perfume with a deep, multifaceted composition, exceptional durability, and an expressive trail
Perfumes for the fall and winter seasons often contain notes of vanilla, spices, ambergris, wood, and other warm accords, creating a feeling of comfort and warmth during the cold months
The olfactory structure of 103 evolves as a living composition, where accents shift smoothly and sequentially. The creative approach of Scent Bar is clear in the way notes appear and fade. No excess details, only what works, and the fragrance holds its character from opening to trail. Perfume extract supports a balanced rhythm of unfolding.
The gender direction is unisex, which sharpens how the fragrance is perceived. In longevity terms High indicates a stable lasting impression. In projection Middle defines the projection profile in space.
When the structure is mixed the opening appears as one connected movement with a sweet-spicy dessert mood: Almond, Grey Ambergris and Sugar.
The heart and base are perceived as a continuous motion from lift to depth, which keeps the fragrance coherent.
At olfactory-group level the profile is anchored in Animals, Citrus, Floral and Fruit. The framework further includes Gourmet, Musk, Spicy and Sweet. From a family perspective the scent maps to Gourmet and Sweet.
Overall 103 sounds complete from start to finish — the opening sets direction, the heart develops the core line, while the drydown anchors the memory. These are the scent structures best judged on skin.
