Stile by Sergio Tacchini, 2003

Stile is a good scent that can also be found for fairly cheap. I also enjoy the packing of this I think its quite neat in its minimalist design.

This is classy, warm contemporary spicy oriental fragrance with some freshness to it.. I get very fine sweet tobacco smell out of it.
Something in Stile reminds me of Envy for Men.


Notes:

Top : Bergamot, Fig Leaves, Fir Balsam
Heart : Cinnamon, Cardamom, Jasmin, Myrtle
Base : Tobacco Leaves, Tonka Bean, Patchouli, Musk


Perfumer : Karine Dubreuil

After the initial, harsh chemical blast, I find a pleasing, bright citrus, mint and patchouli fragrance. The patchouli plays an important role with the mint: the mint wants to be herbal and cold but the patchouli wants to be earthy and warm. There's a cedarwood note in this that makes the interplay come alive (cedar here being both cooling and the wood being warming) and this fragrance seems to thrive with this conflict. Interesting and refreshing.
