This is one of the the few perfumes and the only one in Profumo's line yet where I don't know what to think of! It smells to me so unusual and different that I simply don't know if I like it or not. It consists only of three ingredients: Vanilla, Tuberose and Tobacco. Judged by the three ingredints you can already imagine how it smells like, right? No, you have no idea! Try it and you will see/smell what I mean. I sincerely hope that the people of Sicily are not as schizophrenic as the perfume is!

Since i discovered i love natural perfumery i had to try this line:-) Don Corleone:-) macho man, the boss, so at the first sniff from the vial it hit me as i expected from a perfume of such name:-) the macho man, very strong , rich, a touch unpleasant maybe, masculine fragrance , smoky like smoked ham:-) ,very gourmand, i was sniffing my oily vial, cause its dense sweet smoky scent to recognize what kind of a meet it reminds me of , what dish?:-) And i thought i wont be able to pull this off:-) But when i tried it on the skin,in just 5 minutes it transformed into very feminine sweet scent,to my big surprise!! This perfume seems like very wearable scent, it projects , has good longevity, and is unisex, but men who want to wear something vanilla like but some may find it too sweat although its not! The third most important player in this composition, tuberose, is so well hidden behind tobacco smoke, it was there but i could not identify it!! The combination of vanilla, tuberose and tobacco make this scent very gourmand, oriental, warm but not cloying, its nothing like typical vanilla scent, As the reviewer before said, its simple yet delicate composition, it dances between beeing too gourmand, too feminine, too vanilla, too tobacco, and in the end its one very unique scent for people who are temperament in nature! Like Sicilians are ! That's why the name fits perfect here!

This is my favourite masculine floral, and I would never have guessed that it would be tuberose! Don Corleone plays off of Abdes Salaam's masterful hand with tobacco, and features a fantastic, fleshy, rich (but not too sweet) tuberose absolute. The closest comparison I can come up with is with HdP Tubereuse 3, but the Don is drier, simpler and more tobacco oriented. It is much more wearable in my opinion. The drydown features an equally rich and subtle vanilla. I have no particular philosophical orientation towards all-natural scents, but Abdes Salaam's compositions have won me over with their simplicity, purity and modesty. This is an ideal house through which to experiment with new scent experiences, and one can only be impressed by Abdes Salaam's mastery of his craft and generosity of spirit.
