Confetto
by Profumum Roma
Confetto by Profumum Roma delivers a soft, gourmand embrace of sweet almond, vanilla, and a subtle anise note, evoking the comforting warmth of marzipan and candied almonds. It emerges as a clean, powdery, and slightly synthetic scent reminiscent of a vintage doll head or a luxurious sunscreen, with a creamy, musky drydown that lingers with surprising tenacity. The fragrance wears close to the skin with moderate sillage, making it ideal for cooler seasons and intimate settings rather than warm weather. While it shares a lineage with Dior Hypnotic Poison in its bittersweet almond profile, it leans more toward a refined, elegant gourmand without the heavy spiciness or cloying sweetness of its famed predecessor. Performance is outstanding, with longevity spanning well beyond 12 hours and lasting for days on fabric—making it highly efficient despite its high price point.
