Giardino di Boboli is already a bit hyped on social media. It's not a typical hype fragrance, but you can often find it in some people's top lists when it comes to fresh spring and summer fragrances. Doesn't have to mean anything, but fragrances that are in the limelight should be looked at. I bought this fragrance a few months ago, specifically because I was looking for a good fresh spring fragrance with good longevity. The RRP of 220€ is clearly too high in my opinion, but it can also be much cheaper if you have a little patience for discounts. I really like the brand Roberto Ugolini by Herbert Stricker and with Marzocco, Blue Suede Shoes and 17 Rosso this is already my 4th fragrance. This brand is worth it.
In my perfume days, I often received letters asking me about fresh fragrances with a long shelf life. Of course, people are often disappointed that a fresh fragrance sometimes only lasts 2-3 hours. It's also not so easy to make a fresh fragrance last without synthetics. This fragrance is definitely a beast, but it's not for everyone. This fragrance is a ramp sow, somewhat penetrating and very intense. There is also a hint of synthetics. There is a lot of criticism in the statements, which also receive approval. Giardino di Boboli is definitely not a fragrance you should buy blindly.
Giardino di Boboli, or Boboli Garden, is a park in Florence. If you google it you will find many beautiful pictures. It would certainly be worth a visit if you were ever in the city. Even though I haven't been there yet, this fragrance is certainly not an authentic fragrance that reflects this theme. What you get here is a fragrance that matches this great green bottle. It's poison green and, like all of them, has a great horn lid. The fragrance comes in the usual orange packaging.
in which direction does this fragrance go? The fragrances listed above are very accurate: floral, fresh, green, fruity and also synthetic. In my opinion, this fragrance also has a slight resemblance to Marc Gebauer's Orange Flamingo, especially in the later stages.
The fragrance starts with a lot of green apple, very unsweet and a great tart apple note. There are also green notes that are quite intense and pleasant and go well with this theme. The rose geranium is also perceptible in the first hour. A note that delivers a beautiful floral freshness. As it progresses, rose gains the upper hand and it is simply a great blend with the apple and the green notes. A little iris also plays a part, along with some woody notes. The floral part is really well done and quite unisex, especially due to the green freshness. From hour 3-4, there is a great soft-rinse vibe. Clean, fresh and pleasant. A pleasant musky note that comes across as powdery and clean. Beautiful light wood also comes through well at the end. Overall, a very pleasing scent in the second half of the fragrance. The first few hours could be quite challenging for some, also due to very good sillage.
As already mentioned, performance is very good and probably also the recipe for success of this fragrance. Lasting power is in double digits and the sillage is strong over many hours.
Overall, a great fresh fragrance that doesn't necessarily drift into the typical no-brainer category. In my opinion, it is best suited for spring and not too hot summer days. It's not refreshing enough for the real summer. A great fragrance, especially thanks to this performance.

Fresh spiciness with pleasant herbs and a slightly blue freshness
Another comment on a Roberto Ugolini. With 12 fragrances, this brand is quite manageable, which is not a bad thing. Alongside Giardino di Boboli, 17 Rosso and Marzocco, it is number 4 in my collection....
