Maria Callas

The Merchant Of Venice · 2023

Fresh · Citrus · Floral

The Merchant Of Venice Maria Callas is a fresh, citrusy women's fragrance that suits spring and fall days, whether at leisure or at work. It opens bright and lightly spicy with Italian lemon, Italian mandarine and Madagascar pepper. In the heart, rose, currant and neroli meet green notes, so the floral and fruity side turns sweeter while the green keeps it crisp. It dries down to a soft, woody base of Georgywood, Texas cedar and amber. Longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick spring and fall, with leisure, daily wear and the office leading the occasions. Its character reads mostly feminine and modern. Fragonard Concerto and Iceberg Twice have a close profile.
