   |  Gorgeous, fresh summer scent! I'm generally not a fan of citrus, as I tend to read "Pledge" more often the not (Eau d'Hadrien smells like tasty Pledge to me), but Carthusia Mediterraneo is great. It's a perfectly cut slice of biting, zesty lemon squeezed into a fizzing cold glass of mineral water on a hot day. Delicious. This is a scent to wear drinking rosé by any body of water, preferably at noon. 03 June 2009 |
 | a sicilian citrus grove in a bottle. very fresh, and a bit sweet. great summer fragrance 09 March 2009 |
  |  So much citrus it smells medicinal. It's just like the Dr. Vranjes line of fragrances; specifically Orion. Very potent and screams PERFUME!06 September 2008 |
 | I am a huge citrus perfume fan but even I don't get the hype on Carthusia's Mediterraneo. It starts off smelling like Lemon Pledge. After 10 minutes or so, the sweetish chemical top notes disappear and one is left with a tolerable citrus floral scent without much sillage. Lastly, given the mediocrity of this particular scent, the high price is rather annoying. For my money, I'd take ANY of the following over Carthusia's Mediterraneo any day: Annick Goutal's "Eau d'Hadrien", Bulgari's "Extreme", Frederic Malle's "Bigarade Concentree" or Chanel's "Eau de Cologne". These are all top-notch, interesting and well-crafted citrus perfumes. 22 April 2008 |
  |  (EDP) - Starts off with a wonderful, juicy lemon that makes me think of the "orange and lemon slices" candies from the supermarket. At times, however, it veers very close to Sunlight dish detergent. Once the lemon is gone, it leaves behind an uninteresting green substructure.16 April 2008 |
 | Mediterraneo is the perfect answer when one is looking for a citrus that isn't light blue or i love i love cheap and chic. its a crisp fresh. every time i wear it, i can close my eyes and see the ocean from the stop of mt. solerno in anacapri or the lemons out side of pompeii. they say scents can trigger memories, this one certainly does 10 April 2007 |
