Riflesso Blue Vibe

Riflesso Blue Vibe, Trussardi's 2019 masculine fragrance by Véronique Nyberg, is an unusually layered scent: everyone who describes it calls it gourmand, floral, aromatic, ambery, leathery and citrusy all at once, which suggests a sweet, boozy character with plenty going on around it.

Yuzu provides a sharp, slightly bitter citrus brightness, and rum brings a sweet, warm booziness. Hazelnut adds a toasty, nutty sweetness, while davana contributes a fruity, almost apricot-like liqueur note. Geranium and artemisia give the aromatic, faintly green side, keeping the sweetness from becoming cloying. Tobacco and leather supply the dry, smoky depth, and amberwood closes with a warm, resinous woodiness.

This is a scent for men who want something more characterful than a standard fresh fougère. It suits cooler months and evenings, when the rum, hazelnut and tobacco have room to show. If you enjoy sweet, warm masculine scents with a leathery edge, Blue Vibe sits in that space.
