Venezia Uomo opens with a clean lemon and bergamot tandem before quickly adding relatively soft lavender to the mix. As the fragrance reaches its early heart phase the aromatic lavender takes...
A nice green top note develops into a good iris scent with a hint o light wood - a bit synthetic but all right. Gone after ninety minutes on my skin. Nice while it lasts and quite unlike others.
An all right citrus-vetiver freshness, counterbalanced by pepper, wood and later in the drydown some incense notes. A standard theme played out often and nothing special.
The original vintage version:
Amongst the classic chypres this is a more floral one, with touches of citrus, rose and jasmine in the top notes. Woody and leather becomes more obvious in the...

I love Mediterranean herbs. I am about to look for samples of fragrances that display great, aromatic Mediterranean herbs.
What are your favorites?
you HAVE to try all the Acqua di Parma fragrances in their "Blu Mediterraneo" line. they have terrible longevity but they are extremely high quality mediterranean herbal/floral/citrus frags. think it might be just what you're looking for.

Yes, this line sounds very intriguing to me. In fact, I started a thread on them several months ago. I will definitely have to sample them. I will have to see if they have sufficient longevity.
Maybe what you are looking for is found in Tuscan Soul by Ferragamo. A very citric scent that develops into a more herbal heart. And it broadcasts "mediterranean" to all corners.
Another vote for Tuscany Uomo, plus, in a variety of other styles, Virgilio, Baïme (though I don't find it all that wearable), Eau du Sud, Aria di Capri, New West for Him, and Fraîche Badiane.
That style is one of my go-to favorites, if done well (in a dry style). Here are some I like:
Acqua Classica Borsari
Acqua da Toletta
Basile Uomo
Eau D'Hadrien
Eau D'Italie
Essenzia di Zegna
Grain de Plaisir
Iskander
L'Eau Guerriere
Magnifico I: Mirto Imperiale
Sud Est
Victrix
Virgilio
