    hmm....to me it is just your average citrus scent. I don't get the woods, but do get a tame, toilet paper-smelling musk at the base. Not horrible, but not worth owning.

    Cefiro has citrus predominant and it has a lot in common with many citrus predominant fragrances. The opening citrus is quite a clear and clean version; it has the characteristics of the better citrus openings except that it has managed to be precise and crystalline without being at all captivating. The same goes for the middle and the base notes – they are adequate and pleasant and they have nothing in them to make me want to continue sniffing. The middle simply becomes a duller version of top, and the base gets a bit confused: In the base I get a strong tea note with the remnants of the previous citruses, no musk and a very few slivers of woodnotes. The notes respond strongly when they eminate off paper or cloth, but they are rather weak coming off my skin. Even though it is an EDP, its longevity is not as good as I was expecting.

    I wonder what the point of Cefiro is… It seems to me this fragrance would have been designed to achieve something a little more than competence. It is a very nice fragrance but it needs to be more special than it is… especially considering its price.

    One of the few abject failures in the Floris line. There are a lot of "fresh" ingredients in the top part of the pyramid, but what should have been a citric pleasure-fest, ends up being a prolonged note of synthetic lemon. Beyond this clumsy, and somewhat lazy opening, is a vista of indecipherable bland notes that dribble away with some haste. It can only be hoped that Floris will see the error of their ways, and leave Cefiro out on the mountain to die. A very pronounced thumbs down.

    Another lemon scent by Floris. Due to some floral elements (I think it's jasmine) it's obviously warmer and not as harsh as JF, the other lemon fragrance by this house. The fruity notes (mandarine, orange) makes it sweet and feminine while the woody notes are little bit underrepresented for my taste. The impression of a synthetic scent is not as obvious as in JF but still present. The longevity is not bad for a fresh lemon scent (4-5 hours).

    Very usual and expected sharp woody citrus fragrance. It does not have anything special about it. It’s a bit snobby scent, isn’t it…? I mean, you really can get same king of juices with equal quality of blending with much less amount of cash.

    It’s not a bad scent, though. Perhaps a bit boring yes, and “overpriced”, but not bad. It really does smell fairly pleasant and uplifting although it has almost nostril burningly sharp spicy cedarwood note to it.
    It has strongly that lemon soap vibe to it.


    If I was into this kind of fragrances, and would actually want to buy me a full-size bottle, then I would probably prefer stuff like Live Jazz (YSL) over Cefiro.

    Btw, on me this one is really strong and it lasts forever.

    A gentleman's L'Eau d'Issey Pour Homme.

    Floris' fragrances are not groundbreaking, nor do they contain high quality ingredients. Heck, they are even reasonably priced. They are however often very sober, refined, conservative products, that matches the English gentleman.

    Cefiro is a good example of this. It's got the same waxy lemon feel as L'Eau d'Issey, but less harsh and less loud. It's good. :)
