Are you talking about GFF (english- Geeeffeff vs italian- Gieffeffe).

If so, it starts off feminine and transmutes after a quarter of an hour to something masculine. The female one does the exact opposite. Wrist testing doesn't do it justice, it seems to put a lively aura around you all day in the actual wearing.

I just checked his confusing site. I didn't see Pontacchio 21 there - I wonder if it's been discontinued?

I'm talking about Gieffeffe the unisex one (not GFF)

Thanks, I finally found a picture of it at Fragrance net. I didn't know it existed. I like all his stuff, I look forward to finally smelling this one.

David says that Pontaccio 21 was discontinued recently. That would be too bad since he just got me hooked on it! A beautiful woody chypre, slightly similar to Aramis but of true, almost Chanel-like quality and richness.

That's sad. I always thought of it as souped up Aramis. Testers of it are still going pretty cheap down here (approx US$28 for 100ml), I wonder if I should stock up?

To pronounce this just pronounce the designer's initials (GFF).

What's the genealogy of this fragrance - I can't find it anywhere?

Any similar scents to this one?
